Not so much these days.

Do you think that we invent and play games just for something to do.
Or is there a deeper physiological necessity?

Analogically speaking, I do.
Though we issue words for dramatic effect, such as "finding joy in the beauty".
Nonetheless, GOD principle is sound, but of course we could always refer to it as something else...But GOD has become sort of standardised.
Though when hypothesising creation and existence, I sometimes use the acronym ISI, which refers to an Interventionist Super-Intelligence.
Though ISI doesn't stand on a balcony in Rome going blah de blah de blah.
There's more than one way to skin the unknown Cat, Doc.

Don't all games stimulate an element of competitiveness?

Japanese animated porn is certainly affective and explorative without being exploitative.
Perfect porn for sexually unstable geeks.
Does it come with free tissues?

So John wrote John in the courtroom?
Funny thing is, when one researches such matters there is no conclusive data available.
Though it is generally agreed that The Book of John was compiled sometime after Jesus's execution, and not necessarily written by John.
In fact, it's all a bit sketchy and hotchpotch.

You are showing appropriate behaviour for your kind.
I appreciate your tolerance and understanding.
I'm guessing that you have older male relatives.

@Shila
Yep, for sure Deb.
Evil is like rotten cheese.
Whereas bad cheese is just cheese that doesn't taste particularly nice.
So in the middle of the cheese spectrum, there is generally good cheese...Sort of, everyday sandwich cheese.
And then at the ultra-violet end, is superb cheese...Maybe to be enjoyed upon a light cracker, with a glass of fine wine.
Similarly there is fine wine at one spectral end...And Gnat's piss at the other...In the middle is cheap but palatable.
Of course the more pissed one becomes, the more palatable Gnat's piss becomes.
I speak from past experiences.

Hmmmmmmmmm.
Never heard children referred to as pussies, over here in the UK.
But yes, it's become a very provocative word.

That would imply a woman as well.
More tautology required then.

Hmmmmmm.
A single rate of any social tax, is relative to income, so it doesn't matter who earns what and how much they earn.
I don't see why a sensible lower earner would necessarily spend more relative to their income.
In fact, I'm guessing that a higher earner will spend more on higher value goods.
Tax is only regressive because there are a higher proportion of low earners to higher earners.
Of course there are always a few dorks who will waste their money on widgets.
And also high earning misers, Mr Scrooge.

My laptop briefly stimulates my brain. (Like at this moment).
But I have no desire to be continuously connected.
I have other things to do...And at these times, I do not wish to be interrupted with insidious prattle.

Well, this national identity thing ain't going away any time soon, so one has to run with it.
And neither is human beings killing each other in the name of nationalism going to abate anytime in the foreseeable future, so we must run with that too.
Therein lies a seemingly contradictory conundrum.
We pick sides and condemn violence, whilst simultaneously picking a side and justifying their violence.

Hey, so someone elevates these mere mortals to positions of demigoddery and the rest of us are supposed to be so overwhelmingly affected by their inevitable demise.
Pope was just one of thousands who died on Monday.
Don't expect me to be bleating along with the rest of the flock.

Freedom of thought currently allows us to hold seemingly contradictory points of view.
Freedom to air those views is somewhat more tenuous these days.
I personally, support both Israel and Palestine, whilst simultaneously not supporting either Israel or Palestine.
Have I made myself clear?

Why would Jesus answer himself?
Unless he was mad, of course.

HaHa.
And to top it all The Pope dies.
So Donald being a devout Catholic is off to the funeral with Melania.
Do you think that he fancies his chances as the first Orange Pope.

I neither need nor have a smartphone.
My communication device cost £19.99 and costs me £1 per week to use.
Not that I use it much.
Since the demise of the telephone kiosk, a personal phone is an essential bit of hiking/cycling kit.

Hey Mooze.
In the USA...People shoot and people kill.
Guns and shooting is what the USA is all about.
Not sure that it even made the TV News in the UK.
Not that I watch the News.
Only two dead.
No big deal.
Just a bit of temporary hugging and tears, and hollow words of sympathy.

Thanks FLRW.
And for sure, no Taliban...But don't underestimate Greenlanders.
They're proficient at shooting Seals at long range, in sub-zero conditions.
And clever Mr Vance wasn't quite expecting sub-zero temperatures to be quite so sub-zero. Ha Ha.
But what should we expect from a bloke that keeps forgetting his own name?

Buddhists and Hindus.
Yep, them too.
But regionally I was referring to Mesopotamian peoples.
Though everywhere that people existed at any given time in the past, then said people would have been doing stuff.
Bit silly to think that people just stood around motionless for millennia, not thinking or doing stuff.
