RE: Socrates' Triple Filter Test

And why would Socrates have cared about whom his wife was sleeping with?

(Please recall this was ancient Greece and that Socrates was far more entranced with other seductions.)blushing

RE: SPIRITUAL BUT NOT RELIGOUS

blushing Hi, Lady.

But I really do wonder. Does believing in crazy stuff make one spiritual? Or does it have to be a particular brand of crazy stuff?

RE: SPIRITUAL BUT NOT RELIGOUS

So you think any of the above "beliefs" qualify you as "spiritual"? Why? Would I be spiritual if I believed the green Venusians were plotting to overthrow the next US election or bombard us with banana bread pudding?confused

RE: SPIRITUAL BUT NOT RELIGOUS

Could you give me the number of the one your hound uses?conversing dunno smitten wave

RE: SPIRITUAL BUT NOT RELIGOUS

I think this could be a VERY interesting thread, if it were focused on what people actually mean by the statement. What constitutes "religious" or "spiritual," for example? I suspect people vary rather wildly on how they'd answer those questions.

I don't classify myself as either, but I imagine that some might consider me "spiritual," in the sense that I'm concerned with larger ethical and psychological issues...?confused

RE: SPIRITUAL BUT NOT RELIGOUS

RE: DO YOU BELIEVE IN ONLINE DATING?

Definitely - but as you say, Tina, not the kind of cyber-dating which is exclusively virtual with only a (faint) prospect of meeting at some far-flung future date (the rough equivalent of "never meeting").

RE: astrology and dating

If you're using astrology as your basis for choosing a mate, you're pretty much doomed from the start, in my view.

SHeesh...that bike ride this morning must've soaked up what little brain substance I have...roll eyes laugh confused

RE: No reason to pretend

But the important question, K: How do you feel a bad who requires his own sleeping blanket?confused dunno laugh confused

RE: DO YOU BELIEVE IN ONLINE DATING?

Yes, it can work...though it seems that many people consider their online relationship a success per hypothesis - that is, before they actually are together. The only success being achieved there, I think, is often a successful fantasy. It's best to keep one's head while in the virtual phase of romance, imo.

You must be a fast-learner of languages!thumbs up head banger wine

RE: No reason to pretend

thumbs up Those are some of the things I was thinking about, actually.... head banger beer

RE: The fear of God

A romance truly made in...Heaven...?conversing hmmm smile

RE: The fear of God

Think of it in this way: How many of our rational, happy, and successful actions are motivated by fear? Consider our romantic relationships. Can you imagine a healthy romantic relationship - or any relationship - based on fear.

Not to suggest that anyone should attempt a romantic relationship with a deity. You're bound to get burned.scold professor wink

RE: The fear of God

The beginning of utterly absurd beliefs?head banger

RE: Opposites Attract ....

"Hassleless"? If it's like that, you know you've shifted over to an alternate reality where perfection is possible.

Confucius once wrote: They whom the god would condemn are granted perfection.blushing wave
