Alright, I've been told numerous times that love is indescribable. In a worldly sense, I believe love is a false ideology, mainly because of all these nymphomaniacs, rapists, etc. I may seem pessimistic, but that is what I believe. The world is so corrupted and plagued by such primitive beings who indulge in sex and such. Those who marry for money and a great sex life, not for companionship or devoted trust to ones spouse. From a pyschological perspective, these traits defines males and females, as well as from my point of view. Males: Possesive, arrogant and chauvanistic, and at times deceptive. Females: Majority of the time deceptive; greedy. Love is but a simple fragment in this world. It holds no true value, because people fail to recognize it and act on it. They just care about themselves. Their own indulgences. I'm asexual because of these very same reasons and more. Relationships, sex, and marriage ALWAYS lead to problems, and the majority of the time, divorce ensues or maybe even death. I deny my primitive "instincts" and think out of the box instead of the "normal" individual. Why bother when one can avoid these unecessary anamolies? Lust is usually dominant. Love is underminded, thrown out. It usually about sex. I have plenty of other reasons why I do not like either gender as well. Males: AIDS, STDS, immoral, societal rejection. Females: deception, STDS. I supress my hormones. I reject their lustful manipulation. And I'm not insinuating that love does not exist, only that it's presence is but a fragment in the world, and in the hearts of humanity. This is my theory. Opinions?

I believe knowledge is more important than anything else. It's all a human being truly needs. I haven't necessarily read any books either, just studied various Philosophers in a Philosophy book that I purchased a while ago. Already read it, but I'm letting my English teacher read it. Unsuprisingly, I'm not stressed out, although a bit angry at times. Sometimes I am angry for no reason. I guess I might be bipolar
was it 'philosophy for dummies' perchance? It's good to educate your english teacher. Most likely it is the first time he ever hears about Descartes.

I took Psychology class this year, and I discussed with the group about my opinions of "love". And they did not denounce that opinion. They thought it had logical relevance, and they respected what I thought, instead of ravaging it and tearing it apart like you idiots. No matter how much I continue, all of you're stubborn minds will never understand. Human beings would rather go through instinct than logic, which leads them in a corner of immoral behavior. Pitiful.
I dont think knowledge isnt the most important thing in the world. On the contrary, I think love is. Love helps you understand the world and understand yourself. If people love, you would learn that there is such thing as fate and hope and that someone can and could be eternally happy. Maybe I'm too gung-ho on the fact that love is real, but hey sue me. Love is real, so get off this forum and find someone to love!

The first thing they teach you in psychology class is "don't outright denounce people's ideas", because when you're a psychologist there's every chance the person ranting inanely at you is a psycho.
Here on the internet, we don't need to hide behind a layer of bullshit, because it (usually) doesn't matter if we accidentally antagonise a psycho. Here on the internet, if we think you're deranged, we don't tell you your opinion has logical relevance; if we don't respect you, we don't tell you we respect you. We tell you you're fucking deranged, and we give you no respect.
If your ego is easily bruised, you might take it as a personal affront, and complain that we're all idiots. Once you toughen up a little, though, you'll come to appreciate that on the internet people generally say what they really think, rather than what they think you want to hear.
All right, dumb and dumber.
>"don't outright denounce people's ideas"
I haven't denounced anyone. I haven't said, "YOU'RE WRONG! YOU'RE DUMB!" I respect EVERYONE's opinion, but that does not mean I will agree with you, just as you of I.
Like I did not already know this.
Like I said, I've no emotions to harden, no ego to castrate.
>you'll come to appreciate that on the internet people generally say what they really think, rather than what they think you want to hear.
I've always known this.
>>221
Ulrich admitting he's dumb? I never thought I'd see that!
>>221
You have a certain knack for latching onto a single phrase in a post, misinterpreting that one phrase as summary of the entire post, disregarding the remainder of the post (and thus its actual point), and finally replying in some manner that barely relates to the phrase you originally latched onto. It's like conversing with half-deaf parrot.
>>223 Don't ruin it for him!
>>221 "I haven't denounced anyone. I haven't said, "YOU'RE WRONG! YOU'RE DUMB!" I respect EVERYONE's opinion, but that does not mean I will agree with you, just as you of I."
Let's take a look into Ulrich's past!
>They are too primitive to listen to reason.
>I wish not to be devolved down to the level of premature mentality.
>You are a very ignorant being
>In the end you are all pathetic and simple-minded
>I was a sympathic soul at the time, helping others and being compassionate, but that was lost once I decided to change and erradicate such ignorance. (I just included this for lol's)
>I've done that for many a year (also for lol's, stop trying to type like a Brit from the 1800's)
This is really a pointless endeavor, since pretty much ALL of your posts are telling people they're wrong. Someone gives you their opinion, and you counter with your unwavering extremist opinions, basically telling them they're wrong. You might prefer to say you're trying to talk people into believing what you do. Whatever you call it, when it all boils down it's telling them they're wrong.
Hello everyone. I'm sorry to say this will be my last post on this thread, unless we get some order here. I know ya'll don't care, but maybe it wil be a wake-up call for you to go get a life. This thread started off very well. Good posts and stuff, but now its a bunch of bullshit. We all have flaws, I do. So lets not gang up on one another. Ya'll stop picking on Ulrich, and Ulrich, stop giving them a reason to. The internet was made to connect the world together to get peoples opinions not to berate everyone about how stupid they are for having a different way of thinking. Now people, yes I'm stupid for thinking ya'll would care. But I don't care if you don't care. I'm just saying, this was a very interesting thread and people have ruined it. So everyone, I must leave you. I hope that you all find happiness. Love will one day find you and so will happiness. And to Ulrich I leave you these words. Tell these people to go fuck off and masterbate to Henti.
See ya'll

Nice try Ulrich but you still fail
Well, Pms, I've pretty much give up on this thread anyway. It's not worth my time if people are constantly harassing me in my attempts for feedback.
>>228 Idiot. She is a friend of mine. Posing is for the simple-minded that have no lives.
Well, the human beings here are no better than anyone else in a specific location of the world. Baised opinions, hatred, idiocy and fluent controversy with uncompromising results. I've pretty much given up on this thread due to that.
Btw, do not be contradictory when you state something anti and you do it regardless. That's pure hypocrisy at best. All of you still have a way to go in this world, and I, for knowledge and understanding.
Ulrich, stfu.
>>229 Baised opinions, hatred, idiocy and fluent controversy with uncompromising results.
Perfect description of yourself!
>>do not be contradictory when you state something anti and you do it regardless
That's you again! You're getting really good at analyzing yourself Ulrich. I must commend you for this
I think we can finally let this thread die and restrain ourselves from taking this assenine arguement further. For the good of /love/!
come to the netherlands, you moron, or anywhere else but the US for that matter. what lowlife area are you from anyway?
>>229 is completely rite.
>>233 you bastard.
ok sorry. let's not generalize the US as one single lowlife area. I actually know plenty of nice americans ;)
My opinion of the world…
The world is a dark wasteland. One engulfed by deception and despair. Paranoia is constant and the turmoil of the land is infinite. Human beings are inexplicitly weak. They indulge themselves is the pleasures of the world with their deceptively complacent life styles.
Life is barren. Hatred in concealed within the soul, but is usually unleashed as a hail of merciless abuse. I think only of the negative aspects of the world, for the malicious intent is much higher than the benevolent characteristics. I do not “worry” about my brethren. I only think of what they do because they ARE my brethren. The same life form. All in correlation with flexibility of emotions and behavior. Chaos dominates the land. The world. Even the universe. The multi-verse is full of various things, hatred being one of which. From a philosophical perspective, I know how the world is (yet my father thinks otherwise), which is deprived of any sense of virtue. Only the fragments of hope instilled within few people. Either individually, or those collectively in a religious sect.
Love is supposedly a benevolent and gratifying emotion. Yet, love in this world is a comical joke. Love conceals lust. Lust is the true, deceptive form of love. The whole world writhes with this thought. Human beings do not “love” one another. They wish only for gratification. Impeccable pleasure. From a worldly outlook, this speculation is highly accurate. Love is comprised of three components. Passion, commitment and infatuation. A true love that is difficult to attain.
Religion is the major source of spite. An individuals “opinion” is the dominating factor. Various Religions dislike one another due to their principles or opinions of one another. I highly disapprove of Religion because of this. The only thing I believe in is God; nothing more or less. The destructive properties of one’s opinion can be devious.
Well, from analyzing this information you may come to the conclusion that I am an enigma, or that I am problematic. That prediction is obvious though, and I myself occasionally think I am insane in this corrupted world at times. My sympathy for my fellow brethren has been eradicated, with the exception of my comrades. My loyalty does not waver.
Thanks for sageing at least, but please, go away!
I am happy today. I was happy last week. Most of my life I haven't felt bad. So I must be living at a sunny spot in that dark dark wasteland.
In my whole life, I don't think I have really been deceived more than 10 times. Despair and paranoia can be deceived to go elsewhere.
Brethren is not a word in my vocabulary. If love is a comical joke, I want it even more. I love jokes.
>>238 you should think just like Ulrich because he understands the world unlike your ignorant self.
p.s. sage please ):
>>1: With those preconceptions, you will never find love

Sorry to burst your bubble, but Aristotle, Plato and Socrates were all men with opinions, which not everyone agrees with. You placing them on a pedestal shows how polarized and subjective your "logic" is
sage sa-sage please sage
>>242
Sorry to burst your bubble, but that was posted months ago, and the discussion has since moved on. You bumping the thread to reply to it shows how you didn't bother reading the thread, and thus how irrelevant your "comment" is.
thesis: there is no theory of love, just as there is no theory of cow or theory of daffodil. There can only be a definition of love. However there is room for theories on successfuly pursuing, growing and keeping love.
thesis: >>245 is trying to sound smart without being smart.
conclusion: he fails
thesis: if a thread has gone to shit, have the courtesy to not bump it if you absolutely must add your witty retort. (enter "sage" in the link field)
so threads cannot be revived?
no no no no no I never want to see this thread again!
>>248 nobody wants this thread to be revived
needs more sage
ok
what is sage?
>>253

I've been wondering what this sage thingy is too.
>>247 explained it perfectly. lern2read, and stop bumping this thread.
witty retort
>>256
what is bumb? sorry im new to this internet thing
>>258
Bump is when a thread is sent to the top after someone replies. Putting "sage" in the Link field allows you to reply without sending the thread to the top.
For a thread that has gone to crap like this one, that no one wants to see again, it's polite to sage your reply if you absolutely have to reply.
