A person buys ecological or fairtrade (ethical choice)because they care (emotion)about animals, nature and workers right. I mean why would you pay extra money when you consider it from a logical standpoint? Not necessarily. Narcissistic Altruism it's called. Or jumping on the bandwagon. Probably ap...

It's like the battleground where the reductionist gang up on the holists. Where everybody that does not abide by Aristotlean logic gets invalidated. Where mysticism, esoteric and arcane matters are belittled. And where people put words into your mouth and then don't have the decency to reply when yo...

^^^ I don't mean to be patronizing. But just in case you are not aware, frustration is an emotion. What I mean is that the emotions that causes the meltdown is different for different people but it wouldn't surprise me if there is a consistency in the emotion that leads to a meltdown for a given in...

And now movement and art therapies are being used successful in helping autistic children better regulate their emotions and integrate senses, and in doing so increase focus and short term working memory to successfully integrate into larger humanity; that has lesser issues in successfully regulati...

Is a meltdown a display of emotions? Or should I ask, is it an outlet for surpressed emotions.

Kraichgauer, I didn't see your post. It looks like you've half answered my question.


Probably depends on the person. Main trigger for me is frustration.

To me that could show an underlying tendency to avoid harsh truths actually... In essence you are saying a Wiki contribution is being dishonest and I am using the same sort of dishonesty. Is this right? But the difference between us seems to be that I will use a rational approach in regards to this...

The only issue I have with meditation and Tai Chi is that I do not do more of them. However the benefits of this kind of exercise are clearly mundane, and any "spiritual' experience is purely speculative. Tai Chi is not my thing either actually. If I do it properly it releases so much emotion ...

Emotionalism, in its meaning as a research paradigm, refers to an approach to conducting research studies that provides a gateway to understanding people's experiences through the use of social inquiry methodologies such as ethnography.[1] Emotionalism can also denote an inclination to rely on or p...

The Bible never was my thing but that don't mean to say there's no wisdom in it.
Are you read-up well enough to know if there is an explanation for hate in it?

It's energy just like nearly everything is. Your cells. They contain energy. They produce it from the food you eat, that's how they get it. They store what they produce. You use this energy everyday. Love is one way it gets used. You cannot love without the energy from your cells. Your entire exist...

...is that then extending one's own boundaries or those of another? It is when I make a conscious choice to do something I would not otherwise do (i.e. extend my boundaries) to benefit another person. :D So love doesn't come naturally?

Food animals will be bred to expend practically all of their life energy in producing meat, milk, wool and other by-products. Horns, bones, muscles and lungs will have been neglected. They still have horns, bones, muscles and lungs. But if we figure out how to grow meat without first birthing an an...

A materialist would in all honesty consistently dismiss anything not sanctioned by the scientific method. They would reject herbal medicine and would prefer their medicine to be synthesized in a lab. They would reduce anything esoteric to be mumbo jumbo And when faced with irrefutable truths they w...
