    It could very well be because in the realm where we come from, there is only love and joy. We come down here to experience contrast ( and before our memory wipe) we know it’s for a short period of time. We also may have a renewed appreciation of what “ home” is like after experiencing this (often) wicked, difficult and painful existence.

    People love it when evil happens to other people. But let it hit home and it’s horrible.

      Do we? I think its more interesting when it can be seen from afar, but do you "love" seeing evil acts occur?

    Evil backwards is "Live" and EVOL backwards, which is how it is pronounced, is LOVE. This obsession with evil is Western madness.

    I switched off when the Jewish woman started to talk about 'Christianity's puritanical view on sex'.

    Sex is for reproduction ... when/where the primates convert sex in 'entertainment unlinked from its reproduction functionality' ... Family values will tend to disappear and without and educational background nurtured by Family values, there are not incentives for responsibility in the long term of times ... the primates becomes subjugated into hedonistic views that only pursue immediate pleasure ... then, the collective memory only works as a receptacle for narcissistic behavioral patterns ... and the things that come from integrability, long term plans, responsibility and delayed cognitive gratification becomes 'myths' and/or 'dreamer's dreams' ... because the culture only nurtures behaviors that pursue immediate gratification, uncontrolled selfishness, and dissociation from the whole ... Cultures of the Self ...
    When/where sex is regulated as 'only for reproduction' ... then, the biological systems tend to deploy more complex collective organizations with long term goals based on delayed cognitive gratification, the common interest of the specie as a whole or civilization, education systems based on integrability, family values and responsibility ... and plus, the primates deploy a better control over their instincts toward immediate gratification, behaviors, and emotions, therefore, more selfless and Intelligent ... Cultures of The Intelligence ...
    It seems pretty obvious that contemporary human 'proto-civilization' took the 'sex as entertainment' path ...There are not 'Cultures of The Intelligence' ... just some primitive pre-proto-forms ...
    The facts speak by themselves ...
