Ubi amor, ibi dolor
Ubi dolor, ibi veritas
Ubi veritas, ibi Deus

I pose the argument that everything humans do is for their personal gain and that 'love' doesn't exist. — obscurelaunting

Mirror-faces of folly: love of wisdom / wisdom of love ...

Love (at least in primates) begins as a cocktail of norepinephrine, dopamine & phenylethylamine that over time becomes a sedative-like compound of oxytocin & vasopressin. Thus, the biochemical 'triumph of imagination over intelligence' (at least in humans).

"Everybody's?" :chin:

Well, my list is courage, health & understanding.

I once replied to my sister who kept pestering me with the question "what is love?" with "Love is a chemical reaction". That's about all I could manage with me high school chemistry & biology (biology in college, oddly, never involved discussions/lectures on interpersonal chemistry).

There's nothing you can do
that can't be done
Nothing you can sing
that can't be sung
Nothing you can say,
but you can learn how to play the game
It's easy

Nothing you can make
that can't be made
No one you can save
that can't be saved
Nothing you can do, but you can learn
how to be you in time
It's easy

There's nothing you can know
that isn't known
Nothing you can see
that isn't shown
There's nowhere you can be
that isn't where you're meant to be
It's easy — *All You Need is Love*

On multiple-guess affiliation surveys I check the "None" box. If, however, when given a fill-in-the-blanks survey, I usually answer the affiliation question: ecstatic pandeist.

:up: A stranger in a strange land, mon ami? Would you describe yerself as cosmopolitan (à la Diogenes the Cynic, but taken up a notch, a citizen of the cosmos; I tried, but failed ... miserably)?

One response to the Euthyphro dilemma that I consider is satisfactory is, avoiding the trap Gg (god is good), g = Good.
