do the senses make sense?

who can understand reality? who can understand anything about what is real or what is not? do the senses make sense? we can often be fooled by what we see, by what we smell, by what we taste, by what we touch? can anybody truly understand reality? thus, keep trump. it is not like there is anybody better, and whoever the democrats have is so horrible that we dare not even think about it. your taste and touch can easily be tempted to see things that are not real. we often see dots in front of our eyes. we know that they are not real. yet we see them. we see the sun rise and set. we know that this is not the case, but is merely an illusion due to relativity, but we cannot help what we see. we can taste salt or sugar without even having them in our mouth. we can make ourselves taste things merely by thinking about certain foods, yet we know that we are not really tasting anything at all. we can feel and hear things in dreams at times, yet we know that such is impossible.

yes, we don't like trump, but ...

yes, trump is arrogant, and he is crude. he does not respect women all that much, but does anybody really? must we get rid of everybody that we don't like, merely because we do not like them? why impeach a man in midstream? why get rid of somebody just to get rid of them? where else will we ever find somebody who even remotely supports the rights of the unborn? almost nowhere! can't we all be called selfish by somebody? can't everybody call what we do evil? who really are we to judge anybody? who can understand reality? who can understand anything about what is real or what is not? do the senses make sense? we can often be fooled by what we see, by what we smell, by what we taste, by what we touch? can anybody truly understand reality? thus, keep trump. it is not like there is anybody better, and whoever the democrats have is so horrible that we dare not even think about it.

or you could seek reality, and not care... the choice is yours!

who says that love is not scientific?

who says that love is not scientific? it appears to be connected to our survival instinct. we must carry on our genes, and to do this, we must gain pleasure from our fellow planet travelers. it is natural to have fond feelings for other people. this seems to be connected to psychosexual phenomenology
