Not most certainly... but true sometimes. Why be truthful with oneself if you are stupid enough that you can maintain a lie to yourself for the rest of your life? That seems like so much unnecessary stress. :Sleepy:
Glad to see that you have grasped subjectivity.... tis only a matter of time before you are an existential nihilist now ^_<

But what if I like you!?
Dogs shit in the sandbox too... but every time they are not doing that: people seem to like them. I seem to recall this being the religion subforum... so I don't see the problem. To use an offensive euphemism that I really don't mean offensively, but which I find interesting: This is the litter box off the side of the sand box

Why? :S
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
