Most Commented Opinionated Blogs (1,909)

Hello blogland citizens.

I normally don't blog about personal stuff and more so with making people feel uncomfortable about our traits, genetic and or acquired. I believe that we are made of many different genes and cells that define who we are. Coupled with the gracious or not so gracious influence of the environment including but not limited to our own parents, classmates, fellow workers and friends.

Then as we grow granting that we interact with others and develop our own preference of belief, cultures and values, then the more we become who we are as a person, member of the society and humanity in general.

When we encounter people, sure we make up our own assumptions (hoping only for ourselves) which can be right or wrong. We make our perceptions as though it is the authority of how we make judgment of that person. There is nothing wrong on that, I think, if you keep it to yourself and don't use as a basis of argument against that person with however they live their lives.

For anyone to judge me, just because of what I wrote on my profile which of course, for me really define me, but contrary and very questionable on that judgment, I feel I am encroached and dissected without my consent. For someone that is just trying to say hello as the first letter and then claim that I am empty and that I am missing something is to me very rude and very judgmental. Of course I blocked that person because I don't see any healthy conversation that is going to develop. First of all I am not interested. I have never been interested on exchanging for mails except perhaps to about three people that have known me for so long on this site. This person, just said things about me, that is not true, at least to myself, the way I know myself and I find it hilarious if not outright outlandish.

Just venting here and thank you all for your reads.

And yes, I am not looking for anyone to complete my life. I feel very complete, thank you very much.

I am here because like I said on my profile, I am learning a lot. It is about me and my learning through interactions with everyone on other's posts and threads and my interaction with them on my writes, too. Good or bad, in agreement or in opposition, I do learn a lot. On top of that I am having fun. Thanks CS for this place.

Thank you all for your reads and or comments.

I was reading the Popular Science magazine, December 2014 issue, and with a jaw dropping bold letters reads like this:



COULD DRUGS HEAL A BROKEN HEART?



The author Jessica Hullinger documented a research by an Australian psychologist at the University of Sydney Adam Guastella, that when she administered OXYTOCIN, to a quarelling lovers during their therapy, their hostility seemed to die down. And with this result, this medicine, a love "OFF BUTTON" can possibly heal a broken heart, she says.



There is a down side to this wonder discovery as argued by Brian Earp, an Oxford University neuroethicist, and published it against this "ANTI LOVE BIOTECHNOLOGY" (He claims that since it will be developed, we should start discussing about ethical issues now that would guide its usage and supported that it should be voluntary, concomitant to therapy and must be monitored for possible misuse. He did emphasize the fact that today there is an extensive attempt to harness BIOMEDICINE, primarily to diminish SAME SEX SEXUALITY.)



In line with this argument, Neil McArthur, a philosophy professor at the University of Manitoba, Winnipeg Canada, pointed out that this drug "might make sense specially for the cases of pedophilia or abuse where people are behaving in a way that is potentially destructive."



Another argument against it was explicitly explained by Vineeth John, a psychiatrist at the University of Texas Health Science Center, and said: "Love is revered like religion and for many it's the primary reason for survival, until therapy is practiable, ANTI LOVE DRUGS, would not only dampen affection but snuff out feelings for friends and family. To fully relieve heartache then scientists may have first to discern how to relieve us of our capacity to love."



In my simple analysis, we are coming to the discovery that love will now be cured like a headache? Should you want to stop loving that person, all you have to do is to keep taking this medicine. Question is, how much will it cost? And for how long should we take it?



Hmmnn, what a world we are getting into.



Then again, perhaps there will no longer be sorrows, pain, hurt associated to love?



We stand to lose our emotional gifts and passionate dispositions replaced by robotic manipulations. Hello Spock.



Thanks all for your reads and comments.

I think most will agree that where a scammer can be proved we should report, but earlier I read a blog where one member suggested we should report the blog as he found it offensive, should we really report any blog we don't like to me next would come bloggers we don't like the same member also described the blogger as scum taking up space on the blogs when one member insults another should we report that personally I'd look at each individual case before deciding but what if we know a blogger has knocked 11 years off their age stated in their profile, and posted a picture to match that age, should we report that indeed what constitutes grounds for a report, we don't want to overwork the mods now do we

If your religion teaches you to kill, and you do it.

Who's fault is it?

Now killing as a response to the killer, would it serve good to humanity?

Or erasing and eliminating that religion, would it solve the problem?

Be my guest.

My son said: Mom, the saying goes, "EVIL REIGNS AND PREVAILS WHEN GOOD MEN DO NOTHING."

Make sense, doesn't it?

So the question is? Are you a good man?

Parting should not be that complicated. A relationship is only valid while both parties want to be in it. If any party opts out, well then that is it. As somebody once said, a relationship is too big for one, too small for three but just right for two.

But it is not always that easy. Sometimes the other party does not see it this way and then a person who could have been remembered with fondness, suddenly leaves a foul taste in your mouth.

How do you handle the phone calls after midnight containing phrases like ‘I’m going to kill myself’ and ‘You were just after my body’ or maybe, if it was a male who got the boot, something like ‘You were just after my money’. And sometimes you may even get threats and blackmail as a side dish.

You can hang up the phone knowing that the person will call again the next night... if not immediately.

Alternatively, you can offer poison or a rope, but the outcome to that could be horrendous. Nobody wants that on his or her conscience.

Or you can try to try to placate the person knowing all too well that it will not be longer than a few hours before the next call.

And as a last resort, you can make up again, which will be futile, for it will only postpone the inevitable for a short while. If you still wanted to be with the person, you would not have broken it off in the first place.

How do you deal with it, or are there other alternatives?

Shakespeare once said, “Parting is such sweet sorrow.” I suppose he was talking about a different kind of parting.


Stay loose! It is Friday.

I need some clarity please .... does co existence mean that we need to keep quiet, has no right to question information and has to walk away the moment the other party gets upset...? What is your definition of co existence?

I have to leave my blog unattended for a while, but would appreciate debate and discussion in this section...

Suicide must be the worse sin you can commit for it leaves you without the opportunity to regret. Not a nice topic, but it happens all the time; as it just happened in my neighborhood.

It also is the worse crime one can commit; a coldblooded, premeditated murder while deliberately leaving enough clues around to be convicted in a court of law. Sometimes even leaving a written confession, before absconding to avoid standing trial. Well, at least in this world anyway.

A deed planned in detail and executed to perfection. Premeditated! Punishable by death in many countries.

But is this the coward’s way out? I don’t think so. It takes guts to execute; a kind of guts I don’t think I possess. Or total insanity.

I cannot even try to imagine what must go through the mind of the person when he takes that final step that pushes him beyond that point of no return. You should have spoken, Jimmy. There is always hope.

You go to a restaurant for dinner, do you expect the guy to pay or do you at least offer to split the bill, me personally I would think more of my date if she offered to split it, but I would cover the full cost being an old fashioned gent,....

do just one amazing thing in life and has to be a treat for yourself only and no one else, what would it be?

I would love to leave this world and go into space to fly around our beautiful planet and view the Earth in all its natural glory in our solar system from the outside,..............................

In real life you have to place a guard on your tongue. When on-line, your tongue is pretty ineffective, but what you write (type?) is as good as coming from your mouth.

Writing reveals your soul. It strips your flesh bare to the bone for everybody to see. Your posts will confirm or contradict the narratives in your profile. Only one irresponsible post can rip your carefully composed profile to pieces. What’s the point of claiming to be a decent and peaceful person, while your posts indicate the opposite?

People will believe what you demonstrate in your posts, not what you claim to be in your profile. And suddenly your entire profile will be under scrutiny, because if you can lie once, you can lie again… and again.

The contents of your posts describe you much better than what any narrative in your profile can. It tells everything about you; it will expose your true nature, no matter how much you try to hide it.

May this day be the day!
