Metric.

The Imperial system is simply crazy, wtf, made-up techno-fetishism! And there are many variants of this madness...

I am comfortable with the "all emotions are chemical reactions in the brain" perspective. It has the helpful characteristic of being true. I am also aware that testesterone, oestrogen, dopamine, oxytocin etc play important roles in sexual attraction, empathy and attachment and other neurological processes.

I just think that saying love is a chemical reaction isn't very meaningful because exactly the same can be said of guilt, joy and other positive feelings since all feelings are chemical reactions in the brain.

Further, "love" is a type of interpersonal relationship that can play out over very significant periods of time. That would seem to differentiate it from simple[r] chemical reactions like sexual attraction, pain, joy or fear which seek to elicit responses over a much shorter period. Instantly, if possible.

Not to be too pedantic but, scientifically proven fact is an oxymoron. All scientific knowledge is conjectural and, all such knowledge (e.g. hypothesis and theories) is continually tested by attempts to disprove them. It will be impossible to prove them in any case.

I get the tension between love (caring interpersonal relationships - not necessarily sexual) and obsession. Between looking out for onesself and caring about others. Perhaps where one lands on the spectrum is evidence of one's emotional intelligence/maturity.

Accomplishing the goals and ideals you've set for yourself is a fine measure and it is uncompromisingly subjective. I wonder if there are objective criteria..

What are

objective

measures of success in life?

How do you cure a headache ?
[Off-topic] MiyagiSan:
Depends on the cause. In most cases, an analgesic is likely to be useful. Probably won't help if the cause is that your head is pinned down under a heavy load - human or otherwise. :D

If you're really clueless or pitiful, try so-called alternative medicines....like homoepathy.....sugared water can cure anything apparently....:rolleyes:

Why - despite claims of thousand year legacies by some - do all religions lack any credible evidence of their claims?
[Off-topic] karandpr:
Atheist here . All religions have some motive behind. Humans are creatures who need motives to live & survive. Religions provide them. They are supposed to be set of rules need to be followed. The rules are open to interpretation so "leaders" can exploit those rules for their benefit.

Why is this section suddenly serious ? What happened to funny troll questions ?
[Off-topic] MiyagiSan:
Just wondered about the lack of evidence. All that exists seems to be no more than even more claims in the form of so-called testimonies from "witnesses" who are typically followers so have a self-interest in affirming these claims.

Textbook answer

Ask anyone , pointing towards other guy "Where will he point to if I ask him "Which is the door to heaven""

If you ask it to angel ,then he will point to door to hell(since devil will point to hell)

If you ask it to devil ,then he will point to door to hell(since angel will point to heaven)

You can just walk to the other door...

Problem is, we positively, definitely know that humans are capable of making sense (actually, nonsense) of these particular phenomenon (ghosts & dieties).....supernatural seems to be codeword for ME-DONT-KNOW! :angel::D:p

[Irrational] belief ceases to be a purely personal matter when actions in the real world are driven/motivated by them. Only by confronting them (e.g. with education, public debate etc) can a society address them.

Imagine living next to an individual who has an irrational belief that anyone wearing blue clothing is out to kill him/her...

...or one who believes an invisible presence has a list of rules by which he/she must abide and so must everyone else too!
