Yes, but they can and do sometimes come from sources the child has strong emotional ties to - siblings or other relatives/friends. There are also soci...
I went in LamSagrada Familia for what I thought would be 30-60 mins max. 3hrs later still open mouthed! If you go make sure you get sundown for the fu...
Doesn’t really matter as long as there is a stable relationship to observe and a male and female role model around. Point being about the child being ...
Fair enough. I just get annoyed when people think people always get depressed ‘for a reason’ when it is simply brain chemistry just going awry. The co...
The psychological differences between males and females is not that significant for most except at the extremes. Most differences noted through numero...
There are no methods full stop. It is not a case of science’s short falls. It is more or less the case of asking someone to show evidence of ‘a round ...
The modern concept of a ‘family unit’ is a little stagnant due to tradition. In reality - there are many examples - a ‘healthy family’ requires childr...
@"Banno" One thing in particular that is present in all ‘religions’ is a tradition of ritual that is known to induce altered states of consciousness: ...
I’ve always been fond of this one: Clifford Geertz: “A religion is a system of symbols which acts to establish powerful, pervasive, and long-lasting m...
Here is an example (not picking on this person, it is just a random example): “Perhaps with the logical anticipation, or hope even, that his conventio...
I have no idea what is in that episode. If you watch them all you’ll get a clearer picture. I was not suggesting trauma doesn’t factor in. My point wa...
I do assume they are anymore than a future civilisation would view assume a Barbie Doll is the representation of some goddess. Real anthropologists an...
That is dubious evidence at best. I’m well aware of Stone Age figurines … that should not be assumed to be anything to do with religious worship thoug...
It is common knowledge. Or at least I thought it was. Stephen Fry did a rather informative documentary on bipolar/depression. You can find it on youtu...
Ask god maybe? It’s clear you cannot read or simply don’t understand what you’re reading (which amount the same thing). I won’t be responding any more...
Nonsense. There are genes related to psychopathy. This is a fact not a fiction. You can do the research or keep spouting crap that will likely get you...
Try reading the entire thing rather going for the ignorant knee jerk reaction. The fact that there are genes that correspond to psychopathic behaviour...
@"Philosophim" I was referring to a state I have personally experienced although I may have said it on another thread? Calling people ‘crazy’ or a ‘lu...
My point was that people can suddenly be depression even though their life has been perfectly fine (including childhood). Some people can be psychopat...
Things are not BS just because you say so. Sorry. Being upset and saddened due to the death of all your family and friends is not exactly the same as ...
You really don’t understand what I’m talking about nor seem to understand anything about how the brain functions. Calling them ‘lunatics’ (or insinuat...
This is the crux of it for me. Think of it like trying to explain yellow to someone who is blind. You can kind of attempt do it, by way of references ...
In teh same respect Husserl often liked to look at the ‘obvious’. It does take a certain perspective to see the mundane as phenomenal (in both senses ...
What evidence? Severe clinical depression simply happens. Someone can be living a very happy and productive life then suddenly, for no psychological r...
They experienced something. That can be investigated. Why they called what they experienced ‘god’ is something we can also ask them about. It seems th...
Again, same issue as elsewhere. What is meant by ‘god’? If ‘metaphysical’/‘supernatural’ science doesn’t have any input. If psychological, there is a ...
Not unless there is a VERY clear and VERY detailed definition of what is meant when someone says ‘god’. Claims of some supreme being existing can only...
People think they want ‘happiness’ but really they mean that they want to do something ‘meaningful’. The sense of satisfaction gained from struggling,...
You are starting to sound ridiculous. How can you say it is chimera with the technological advances we have today gained by way of scientific investig...
So blame the media not the methods of science. There have not exactly been many physicists who are able to bridge the gap in term of public relations....
Possibility does this by sidestepping the question and saying something that looks like it means something but then seems utterly incapable of offerin...
