I really want to ask difficult, more awkward questions on here but ppl do get really sensitive talking those things!
I don't want to upset ppl but I want to debate these more sensitive topics.

maybe we can do something about this,, i TOO want serious conversations about many topics,, bot too many want to find something to fight over.
I suppose one can "curate" a line of responses, removing those of the hater aid drinkers.
there are more than 2 popular sides to most things,,
but most people only have one,, and see anyother as Enemy thought

@Amylynne enemy thought as opposed to just what an individual cannot understand? I'm open and not particularly conventional, that's why I genuinely want to debate, only issue is my views can antagonistic to some.

@JovialPlutonian it is the essence of civl behavior to openly and politely disagree.
since ancent times we have had formats for such, from classical logic, forensic debate, many methods..
I like
"anyone that call another a hateful name is disqualified. from participation.

@Amylynne yeh I appreciate that but most ppl fear what they don't know so they can become offensive very quickly as a form of defense.
Amylynne · 26-30, F
@JovialPlutonian very very true.. "fear is the mind killer"
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@Amylynne yes only the mind knows fear
Amylynne · 26-30, F
@JovialPlutonian on not at all ...
ALL creatures know immediate fear..
fear erases the mind, replacing it with animal instinct and reaction.
we seem to be one of the few animals that has learned to fear what has not yet become

@Amylynne you link fear with survival?
Amylynne · 26-30, F
@JovialPlutonian more like,, fear is the guard against danger.
an alarm clock that is to warn the organism.
some say out minds are a solution, an upgrade, that allows us to plan rather than react.

@Amylynne personally I'd call that caution.
Amylynne · 26-30, F
@JovialPlutonian yes ,, caution, a more reserved, and intellectual way of dealing with danger
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@Amylynne but one can be fearful at the same time, that's why I believe fear is a concept of the mind. Now the heart, the heart knows nothing of fear, but again that's my belief and we may not agree on that.

@JovialPlutonian tell that to the fleeing Gazelle.
the hiding mouse,
the fleeing refugee.
fear is reall,, and we can even track where it comes from and how it manifests in the bloodstream..
Panic, is the complete loss of resistance to fear.
i wish it WERE all in the mind
we would not have this POTUS who thrives on it

@Amylynne I'm not saying fear doesn't exist but rather that it's not ultimately necessary. Caution yes, in order to survive. How do you measure fear in the blood stream?
