@nahff I am sorry for deleting it, I was worried I might start up something I wasn't ready to deal with :L But I am glad to see you and everyone else is fine!
-
@nahff But I appreciate the sentiment and return the compliment. :3 http://rainbowdash.net/url/771691

@nahff One must have already decided that surviving is the most practical, to defend it with such vigor. :-) It was good chatting.
-
@nahff I will not be able to break you from the assumptions your argument rests on. Mind if we stop here?
-
@nahff I'd argue that anything that discourages reproduction is a good thing right now, due to how overpopulated the world is.
-
@nahff personally I believe that sexual pleasure exists from an evolutionary perspective to encourage reproducing but I don't have any science to back that up. So pleasure is VERY important in the argument you're making

@nahff @nahff Why would it be best for people to restrict themselves to having sex just to produce babies? If a species can actually have preferences of its own, slowing down the birth rate through romance may be an excellent way to stymie overpopulation, giving the living folk more resources, and hopefully giving them happier lives. Because living folk are the ones who are really experiencing the universe, I could argue that their wellbeing and pleasure is more important than maximizing the birth rate, which seem like an ideal thing, but all of it, including romance, birth, the rise of species, and joy, seems to occur as a function of the universe's rules. Does it seem that way to you?
-
@nahff Because it is ultimately less vital to the survival of any given race for its members to be happy than it is for them to reproduce, happiness should be sought elsewhere while the primary focus of relationships should be reproduction.
-
@nahff Either or both people get it in their heads the other person is a "lifelong" partner, when actually practically and biology would prefer to have both people find other people to reproduce with, to accomplish more reproduction and increase to gene pool (the obvious exception being people with genetic disabilities). Of course, behavior of this nature is typically unacceptable socially and therefor has another barrier, but that's a different discussion. My ultimate point here is, the concept/illusion of romantic love is an impractical basis for a relationship because it encourages relationships to be less productive than they could be.
-
@nahff What does one do to gain true happiness, then? If romance makes one happy, why is it only a crude substitution for true happiness? Why is joy from love inferior to other kinds of joy, or, why is it a self-deception, when other kinds of joy aren't?
-
@nahff !ponyphilosophy #love I am interested in this. Does being a concoction of the human mind make romantic love foundationless or pointless? If something can be chalked up as merely psychological or sociological, who is it really nonsense to, since it implicitly does matter to the people who experience it?

@nahff ... Wait... are there things as recursive words ? I know there are recursive sentences but ...

@nahff Spike is OK for the most part. He isn't a jerk. But I agree that almost all Spike-centered episodes are painful to watch.

@nahff There is no answer, enjoy your insanity
