Yes. His argument was...interesting.

Astrapsody
Yeah. Luke did not hate his father, though he hated the sith and palpatine. But the path of hatred is the path of the sith :o

[QUOTE="Shad0ki11"]

Love and hate are polar opposites.

MystikFollower

Actually, Love and Fear are polar opposites. Most hate is a subset of some type of fear.

that something I've read also

That the only true emotions people feel areLove & Fear, and that every other emotionbranches either directly or indirectly from either/or. That it somehow effects the structure of our DNA by manipulating the number of amino acid codes that are turned on. That we have 64 possible codes but only 20 active in our structure and that Love/Fear can create or take away 'DNA antenna'(so to speak) and turn on the other amino acid codes.

meh, im just rying to figure out my thing with my lady.

No; in fact they are the exact opposite of each other.

Two extreme opposites are always easily mistaken for one another.
Love/hate.
Wisdom/stupidity.
Etc.

Not really.. The obsession that can at times accompany your feelings of love makes you want to think about the person you love, even if at times it causes you pain and so on.

True hate, makes you want to forget the person exists, and when you realise they do actually exist, like when you hear their voice, it just pisses you off or irritates you.

Atleast off the top of my head thats what I think.
I'm too tired to think about it any more indepth ._.

lol, how do wisdom and stupidity get confused :lol:

Actually that's the one i experience the most. When ideas become very deep but have very thorough following, they either are extremely stupid ideas or astonishing truths that were hard to spot. It's easy to find a reasoning for all kinds of ideas, so they tend to flip flop around a lot when You think about them seriously. The somewhat normal ideas flip flop as well but it hardly makes a difference. Things like 'it is not nice to put a child on this world' 'it is better to be sad once in a while' 'Your life is Your responsibility' 'even someone bad wants the best for everyone' etc either sound very stupid or very true at first, and can have a huge impact on Your life.

Like when i explain some things i think of, i have to start very slowly where i started myself. If i simply state the outcome of those thoughts immediately then people would in some cases kill me or ban me, at the very least call me an idiot. It's only when i explain it to them very slowly that few become capable of believing what i think.
(Which is not because i'm so smart, but i simply suck at explaining things.)

[QUOTE="Jandurin"][QUOTE="Astrapsody"]

It's not letting me quote you, alphamale, but here's my response to your last post.

Does he ever experience both emotions at the exact same time? No. I would actually make the argument that if Luke had truly hated his father, he would have finished him off. He more or less hated the Sith for what they did to his father. However, all this doesn't matter, since my first point stands regardless.

Astrapsody

wait wait. did a discussion about love and hate become about luke and darth vader? this is awesome, i must read

Yes. His argument was...interesting.

Well, fear leads to anger, anger leads to love and love leads to the dark side!

Exactly. That's the thing. You got it. I'm glad You got it because hardly anyone gets it. And the same thing happens with feelings and tastes, and everything else really.

And i secretly think this is inherently true because everything is a thought. Which probably sounds ridiculous as well.

I may be wrong, but I think he means the observer effect or the measurement problem

the measurement problem is just the effect of an atom and how it takes it's place in any particular spot in the universe if you measure it. So an atom is spread throughout the entire spectrum of the horizon until a conciouss observer decides to look at it. So then, the act of measurement and/or observation makes up the entire universe, including you and me. This physical world is nothing because even an atom is made almost entirely out of empty space.

or something like that...

I'm not at all jumping on you for this, but this is a common postmodern misrepresentation of probability collapse. At the quantum scale, yes things are weirdly non-specific until measured. However, measurement does not require a conscious mind, but rather a particle interaction. For instance, measuring the position of a single atom using a beam of coherent photons. The interaction of a photon with the atom causes the probability wave of the atom to collapse and fixes the atom at a particular position in space and time at the instant of measurement. Of course, the observer effect would also include the uncertainty principle, but that has less to do with the stuff you are talking about and would be super tangential :) More on point, I did get KFKitten's intent., I was just having fun with the words, but appreciate the clarification

Yea i still have to get my head around to understand this whole quantum mechanics deal. What i find interesting is as you said, you can put an atom into an empty space and shoot photons and how the light will align itself with the dna, removethe DNAand the photons stay in the same pattern/design as what they clung unto. Or maybe I have that still misunderstood.

This stuff GREAT and is very complicated at times, but I think it seriously narrows the gap between 'real & ethereal'

Hmm just so You know i wasn't thinking about those things. My ways of thinking are not that complicated at all. They're not based on science but simply reasoning. It's actually a little too simple, personal and incomplete to be tested by science >_> don't expect much of it. The quantum things sounded interesting but once i read a little book on it called coincidence, it appeared to me that those interesting occurrences were a little too specific, didn't really say much about reality as a whole that i could connect with.

Right. is kinda the same premise, but without the science hooplah. i mean because afterall, whether it's the measurement/observer effect or the non scientific, both examplify the concept that everything is a thought.

The bigger question from here on then,if anything,would be, who's thought?

That's a deceivingly tough question. I could only answer for myself, and the only thing i could answer is that to the best of my knowledge it is my thought. To the best of Your knowledge it is Your thought. To the best of his knowledge his thought. If there is more to it, it is beyond my reach. And that's the fun part that really fascinates me.
Purely speculative, if i am wrong, this could very well be a system ensuring that nobody becomes too insightful in the workings of reality. Cause when You become a little too curious like this, You get trapped by Your own presumed boundaries. Limiting You more than anyone who doesn't think as much of it.
I couldn't think of a more beautiful prison. The walls aren't on the outside but inside. Out of sight behind everything You know, only for the most curious/threatening people to find, who will find themselves trapped inside when they see them. Held by doubt. Now that is a true mental panopticon, a perfect prison.

[QUOTE="Astrapsody"]

[QUOTE="alphamale1989"]Ok, I think some of us are being a little harsh on TC here. I think what he's doing here is trying to make sense of a love/hate relationship. Many of us including myself have never experienced such a thing, but thier is an example that I'm sure we can all relate to... STAR WARS. What Luke Skywalker felt towards Darth Vader was probably a mix of love/hate. So in a way the two actually aren't polar opposites in that they can in rare circumstances be experienced together.alphamale1989

Luke didn't hate his father....

It's impossible to love and hate at the exact same time. I have no idea how anybody could possibly make that claim using any kind of rationality.

Actually I would argue that the entire final duel hinges on this intense love/hate conflict that Luke has towards his father.especially looks like hate. But ultimatly he shows love and compasion for his father during his final moments. I agree that love and hate are opposite things, but for some people insome cases they can be experienced together.

Or he found he just didn't want to take a life. Nonetheless, Luke didn't love his father at all. There is no instance of Luke being conflicted over love for his father. I'd even say he didn't really hate him either.

Obsession is not the same as love. Obsession is aperversion. Hate is a perversion. There is no relation, not unless you are apervert.

perhaps i used the wrong word, but both canignite a passion so strong that can sometimes consume you

yes, the words mean different,...like light/dark - dry/wet - evil/good - white/black - Love/fear, but the drive that comes with hate and love often seems alike. Not everyone hates in the same way, but those that constantly pursue the people they hate just to let them know that they hate them, that passion is what i mean, and I think that's where my lady and I are at right now. Thats if I can even still call her 'my lady' at this point...

Anyone with the slightest amount of intelligence would know that love and hate are different.
