    Will companion robots solve relationship problems in the future?

    A "tough row to hoe" as they say given the current climate seems to promote that the opposite sex is the enemy and the problem. That wrong approach is purposeful and by design, but that doesn't make it any less arduous for the future of our species.

    I'm guessing a primary customer base for that will be the super-rich. Every estate will have a whole pack of those robo-dogs roaming their expanse. Not joking.

    "Original Sin"....Just Another term for our animal nature?

    We are animals. We're in the Kingdom, Animalia, the Class, Mammalia (mammals) and the Order, Primates. Humans are in the "super family" of Great Apes along with Gorillas, Chimpanzees, Orangutans and Bonobos.

    "Original Sin"....Just Another term for our animal nature?

    Think of "the whole universe" and "the cosmos" as euphemisms for God and reread. I didn't mean Christians worship the "creations" rather than the "creator" and I doubt @Knower of nothing did either?

    "Original Sin"....Just Another term for our animal nature?

    ^ That's Christianity. "The Whole Universe" God is omnipotent and omnipresent, no? "Judgement" A tenet of Christianity is The Judgement "Mission to prostrate yourself before the cosmos". Didn't @Crossbreed make reference to Dylan's song: "Gotta Serve Somebody" to illustrate the...

    "Original Sin"....Just Another term for our animal nature?

    I didn't take anything @Knower of nothing said to be inflammatory or ranting. It illustrates how differently people can interpret something.

    Am l cold and heartless?

    Have you had trauma in your life related to relationships and/or sexuality? The "barrier" resonates with me and in my personal experience it's related to trauma issues.

    "Original Sin"....Just Another term for our animal nature?

    That's not my assertion. I must have misunderstood you in saying that since the word "pornography" isn't in the Bible, then it must be ok. Remember some Christians do take the Bible literally while others do not; and everything in between. A cool T-shirt could read: "Christianity: 10,000...

    Who was speaking to the crowd In Matthew Chapter 5 vs. 27-28?

    "Original Sin"....Just Another term for our animal nature?

    Lust, no? Matthew, chapter 5, verses 27-28, where Jesus says: "You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart." An issue that I have with Christianity as practiced...

    Digestive issues

    I state in my same post you reference that I'm referring to diets high in "processed foods, frozen foods, fast food or restaurant food." Different cultures have nothing to do with it. A person in the U.S. from Middle Eastern, African, Mexican descent who eats primarily processed foods, frozen...

    Digestive issues

    A lot of modern Western diets are notoriously absent of necessary fiber. It's the main reason why laxatives are so common. Eat a diet rich in fiber including things like: beans, lots of vegetables, whole grains like oats and fermented veg like kraut and kim chi and drinking healthy fluids and...

    Why do Humans believe in the Existence of God?

    Ok. Do the exceptions negate the rule?

    Why do Humans believe in the Existence of God?

    Every missionary who set/sets forth to foreign lands believed/believes that everyone should believe what they do and that people are supposed to believe in God (it's God's desire for people to believe in him). You don't think a good number of people believe in God because they believe that...

    Why do Humans believe in the Existence of God?

    What are you referring to when you say "the first reason I've never even heard of"? You don't believe there are scores of people who "believe" and practice Christianity in order to avoid Hell as their main reason for doing so?
