@sogdianrock society is just not ready for it, they're too caught up in their egos.

@sogdianrock like making someone feel bad just so you can feel better about yourself. My niece is more mature than this and she's 9.

hi JovialPlutonian
well I just answered the question. Sorry if I did not give the answer you wanted. I had no intention to make anyone else feel bad. Why would my answer do that anyway?
Best wishes

@sogdianrock do you know what? I like to make ppl feel good because it makes me feel better about myself. Where would you have to be to see otherwise is beyond my comprehension

@sogdianrock I don't feel that way about you. I like to believe you are an honest person, which I why I think you can continue talking to me where others cannot

hi JovialPlutonian
I am not sure I follow you. Should I then have answered your question yes ? how would that have helped anyone else feel better about themselves.
Actually I think I see your point now. I was taking love as being in the biblical sense. Well yes there is love of humanity which was called agape love by the ancient greeks.
Best wishes

@JovialPlutonian I may feel a certain way from what you say but that is my issue, not yours. I'm very temperamental so don't feel you're responsible.

@sogdianrock you answer other ppl's questions as you'd want not how they'd want you to. How else could you be true to yourself!

hi JovialPlutonian
well I feel a certain responsibility over my statements to the extent if they upset and I did not intend that - then I should explain myself better. I have and it appears we re in agreement. You can love a stranger in the agape sense of love. Further I advocate it as the basis of humanism!

@sogdianrock I feel that sense of love and no matter you can't turn it off, you can only expand it further.
It is a truly beautiful thing that I wish all to experience.

It would basically be everyone on Mandy lol
