If they are identical then they would be both identical in method and how they were perceived. If there is a perceived increase in the pain response then they are not identical, agreed. The only thing not factored in is time. Perhaps in retrospection you can conceptually add up all the pain in your life it would be given a value and while it wouldn't be near the most intense pain you've felt, the sheer number of times amounts to significant influence. Guess it depends on your definition of pain. You could use it like the threshold to which you experience as a sense response categorized as an injury, or you could include cumulative values and a time factor (similar to a painful event which sums up all the responces from an event in a spanse of time). Ok I think I'm too tired to reasonably type at this point. Bed 4 me.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
