I think many of you are confusing humanstic love with lust and other emotions.
I don't think that it's anyone's birthright that I have any emotion for them whatsoever. I mean if you were on top of a ferris wheel and a segment of the crowd below suddenly disappered - would you really feel sad about it?
Love is a choice - humanistic or otherwise. Sounds bitter but when I pass people on the street they are like cardboard to me. I generally couldn't care less about them.
Originally posted by badmoonI would feel really sad, because seeing people that then suddenly disappeared would mean I am delusional and probably suffering from some form of schizophrenia.

Originally posted by badmoonI'm not sure I understood the ferris wheel reference either.
If you don't mind, I'm trying to be absurdly serious here. Or seriously rediculous....kinda
Let me see if I did.
When people died in the tsunami in the Indian Ocean or when people died in the hurricane in New Orleans....did you feel sad?
