Is love an intrinsic property that goes hand in hand with procreation, that makes you stay with your partner?
So on an evolutionary standpoint the offspring has more chance of survival with two parents foraging and protecting than one parent?
Is the explaination for love this utilitarian, this evoultionary/biological and this simple?

Originally posted by Vladamir no1Take it to Debates. We've already been kicked out of there for talking about God. You can't come here to our Spirituality refuge and demand that we not bring God into a discussion here.
Please guys lets not get the 'Godhead' figure, involved in this whether for or against.
Academic theories only, be it psychological, anthropological, biological or otherwise.......... thankyou

Originally posted by Vladamir no1There are at least two threads I can remember where we've had this discussion. This forum is really starting to lose its' appeal. Why can't we keep the few threads that actually had readable content in them alive, instead of continuosly starting the same discussions over and over again?

Edit: I mean, just look at the judas threads. Yesterday a thread was started on the subject. And today another one on the same subject. Had the first one been so poorly named that we couldn't possibly figure out its content based on the title, I would have understood it, but... ???
