Senta Christine: lets limit

Senta Christine: lets limit it to people living in the United States since that is the country I am in and I am not discussing third world problems.

Just a minute. Are you saying that everywhere outside the US is "third world"? You cheeky bastard. I'm a British-born New Zealander living in Australia. Which of those would you call "Third World"?

This site is global in scope. There are people here from all over the place. Who are you to set geographical limits on participation in discussions?

Don't feel bad Algebe. I still look at myself as being a Highlander born in America, living in America. Imagine how bad it is for me...

Of course it is hell when you are having a gender identity crises. We can tell by your handwriting.... typing and choice of words that you are a male posing as a female.

I talking about the

I was talking about the experience itself. The during part. What is causing us to have such an amazing experience?

Hormones, chemicals. We are wired to enjoy it for the survival of our species.

So how did these hormones and chemicals come to be? And wired by who?

Evolution.

Evolution.

Evolution is a process that we discovered was happening. Evolution is not a first cause of anything.

There's probably an evolutionist paper out there arguing that such an experience was advantageous for reproduction, and was therefore selected for; but then again, there's probably another evolutionist paper out there arguing that such an experience is has no benefit for reproduction, and is only an emergent property of whatever other thing they think it stems from.

Sure, it has advantages for reproduction, but that does not explain what caused it to be in the first place. I think-Yes, our intelligent creator had us evolve with a sex drive so we would procreate and keep the species alive. And I guess the atheist response would be that nothing had us evolve with a sex drive but we still mysteriously have one..

I completely agree. DAMN

I completely agree. DAMN SCIENTISTS cant make up their frigging minds. What in the hell good is all those years of school if they are going to write nonsensical letters about stupid theories that omit my favorite GOD. I would be just as pissed about this as you are if I were you.

Probably? Not very scientific

Probably? Not very scientific. Do you think a species that finds reproduction unpleasant is more, or less, likely to replicate it's DNA and survive as one of the species we now see?

Or is this another long winded baited argument from ignorance trap, where we traipse needlessly through the fact of evolution, only for the theists to point out it doesn't explain where how life originated? Only if it is calculus doesn't explain how life originated, and is no less valid for that.

What underlying force would even care if we survived or not? The force of nothing?

This is where I doubt you are

This is why I doubt you are a scientist. Evolution is human made term to describe a process that we discovered was happening. It is a theory that is full of tons and tons of conjecture and speculation..Any biologist can confirm that for you. It is also not the first cause of life, food, or anything else.

Why do we have the making

Why do we have the making love experience?

Perpetuation of the Species.

How does it come about?

Desire, followed by Flirting, followed by, Humpty Pumpty, followed by ... Hell, if I have to describe, then you must still be a virgin. Please do not reproduce.

I am talking about the amazing part of the experience, the flood of orgasmic ecstasy. How does that come about? Why are we experiencing it?

If we did not, the species

If we did not, the species would be long dead. Study human anatomy. I shall be the first to say, "I do not know" the complete answer. I know it has something to do with nerves, and pleasure centers of the brain.

You can also ask this question: "If it was meant for male-female copulation for the perpetuation of the species, then how come it can still feel just as good with masturbation?"

It doesn't feel anywhere near

It doesn't feel anywhere near as good with masturbation, but it could be argued I suppose that masturbation, like drugs and all other evaders of love, are here as a temptation. So why would we have pleasure centers and chemical rushes do you think? And why do we suffer so much emotional pain from grief, divorce, hurt feelings, etc? And why we have the necessary mechanisms to want to procreate and keep the species alive? You really think that just happened out of the blue for no reason? Luck again perhaps?

"It doesn't feel anywhere near as good with masturbation,"

I wouldn't know - cough!...

"it could be argued I suppose that masturbation, like drugs and all other evaders of love, are here as a temptation."

It could be argued that invisible pixies who hate masturbation, but love to help people mate give extra help, but that would be as absrudly asinine as your vapid relentless verbiage. I think you must be trolling.

"why do we suffer so much emotional pain from grief, divorce, hurt feelings, etc? "

Tough one, suppose you lost your baby, or hadn't seen your mate or children for a while, and didn't particularly care. Now would you think this would increase, or decrease, your chances of survival as a species?

Jesus fucking wept...

" And why we have the necessary mechanisms to want to procreate and keep the species alive? "

Sigh, because all the fucking species that didn't...oh I can't be fucking bothered to spell this out anymore.

"You really think that just happened out of the blue for no reason? Luck again perhaps?"

No, not even remotely what I think at all, clearly natural selection evidences why it happened, a person would have to have a two digit IQ not to see it as well.

Aha, I think I see the problem.

Senta Christine's picture
You would have to have a two

You would have to have a two digit IQ to pretend natural selection is a first cause, and then type sentences where you pretend that's what someone is referring to.
