Love is Evil?

This is a response to this Blog.....
http://meloypyork.blogspot.com/

I think alot of the pain caused comes from confusion. People confuse love with lust and sex. Physical attraction is natural as we can see throughout nature. Monogamy is less prevalent, but for humans survival of the species is not an issue. We are humans and we have the ability to reason. I have often found that exterior physical beauty masks and internal ugliness and so I would hesitate to sacrifice love because of a desire for physical beauty. I also find that true love can make you see more beauty in someone who might not be considered physically beautiful by others. Beauty is just the attractant that brings us to love. Sex used to be the ultimate gift that you saved for the one you fell in love with. Now it's thrown around like a basketball. Sex has become a game, a pastime, just something you do for fun. Some problems arise from this. Our bodies release certain chemicals and endorphins during sex that give that sense of euphoria so often confused with love. Yes love can cause pain, but I don't really think beauty can cause pain. Beauty is not the culprit, our own human weaknesses and inabilities to control them are what really cause the pain. Beauty is just the worm on the hook.

Damn I should have just put this on my blog. It's long enough. ;)

You call yourself a civilisation?

I have been thinking about what it means to be civilised. I believe our society is lacking in some of the qualities that define a civilized person. I looked it up in MW(merriam webster)and the definition didn't include any of the qualities I will discuss, but to me these are the things that make a person civilized. Honor. Where are all the honorable men/women? To me honor doesn't come with fame or position. Because you are a judge doesn't make you honorable in my opinion. To me honorable falls into the 8th definition of honor in MW. "8 a : a keen sense of ethical conduct : " (The definition for honorable is better.)For example, I was watching a program last night on the Discovery channel about the top 100 americans that were voted on by the public. The choices they gave to vote on were crappy to begin with, but I couldn't believe where the public ranked some of these folks. Alot of people on that list should be on a list of people who break the 7 deadly sins on a regular basis. Or people who haven't done shit for the good 'ol USA. They just happen to be famous. I mean what the hell is up with including Lucille Ball, Laura Bush, Tom Cruise, Ellen DeGeneres, Brett Farve, Billy Graham, Rush Limbaugh, .....I could go on, but the point is that the list made up by the Discovery channel and voted on by the public includes a bunch of lying, cheating, adulterous, greedy, fanatical idiots. Is this what honor means to America? Is this what make a great American, or what makes America great? I'll tell you what, it makes me sick. What ever happened to honor? When a persons word meant something. When being faithfull to the person you married was just the "right thing to do". Is honor dead? Where are the honorable men/women? End Rant.

Politicians are Evil.

Mistrust those in whom the urge to punish is strong.
