Evolutionary biology, if you accept its methods as an explanation for what is "natural", suggests that humans are generally monogamous, but also have frequent desires for extra-relationship affairs which maximize sexually reproductive fitness. This is based on a branch of the Red Queen...

Won't you have problems making out or trying different positions? As for me, I like women who are shorter than myself but not so short that they look like children. All the girls I've dated have been between somewhere my height and up to 6" shorter.

No, I don't take offense. I just consider the leading question which assumes at least two debatable facts to be reflective of no genuine desire for debate. What is the point of asking this question then... ...when clearly your responses to my counterarguments basically revolve around "I don't...

Look, if the reason for this thread is to troll, then consider me a victim. If the reason is the challenge unbelievers to believe in Jesus/God/etc., you will never win by reason, because you are: Assuming there was a crucifix to begin with: Look up the word stauros (meaning "stake", never...

Corollary: One can only be loved by first being loveable.

You're right as well about Art. I, Sec. 8 being another source of federal taxation power. The 16th Amendment reiterated the Art. I, Sec. 8 power while at the same time removing the apportionment requirement, thus broadening Congress' taxation powers. Either way, both areas give Congress...

Absolutely wrong. The 16th Amendment: "The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration." You can disagree with it, but it does provide the legal...

OP made the point that the deity could be variable; the consistent subscription by prior posters to some version of the Christian God doesn't take this into account. The following point should be considered: "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." Along the...

Most interesting. I leave for a few days, expecting this to merely be a ho-hum, dry recital of one's personal beliefs and it transforms into a regular old religious "prove it" shoving match. Of course, the arguments here are a fascinating peek into INFJ advocacy/defense of beliefs (assuming...

INFJs: Have you or any INFJs you personally know ever lost faith in a religion generally, and specifically Christianity? *What I mean is that you were devout in adulthood, but then became less devout, experienced partial/total disbelief, or began to believe in heretical versions of your faith...

ENTP females, I think, have it worse and probably are really, really bad for INFJ males. INFJ males seem more at ease with being INFJ, more OK with being in touch with feelings and the rest. But ENTP females, I feel, that they ... try too hard. They've got this masculine-like personality...

All life lives at the expense of its environment. Business is merely a set of tools. Use what you want, discard what you don't find morally justifiable. To become informed of all the tools available is to be a well-rounded adult. To shun certain tools without even understanding them is true...

I wonder if INFJs (or Is, or Fs) are more prone than other types to passive-aggressiveness? For example, see the confessional thread and its related anonymous confessions (but perhaps the second may not be a representative sample, since you don't know if it's most/all INFJs making anonymous...

I've always thought that some letters tend to make relationships more balanced, and some letters tend to make relationships much harder than with similar types. For example, E/I and J/P can easily balance each other out if both parties are mature. T/F can be harder, since Ts tend not to think...
