There is no magic. Love is just chemicals. Religion originated from curiousity. The meaning of life is to survive and reproduce.

Oh, hold onto your butts, gang-- I can already tell this is going to be a heated debate! The elves and goblins are NOT going to like this one little bit.

Infinitius, welcome to A2K.

How dull life would be without the emotions evoked by patterned sound vibrations produced through the manipulation of bits of wood, brass, and steel, the instinctive behavior of papilio glaucus feeding on lantana on a warm summer morning, crystals of frozen H2O sparkling as they drift through beams of visible radiation, and hearing a child say "I love you, Mom."

The meaning of life is whatever you choose to give it. Knowing how and why something happens does not detract from the exquisite (and currently inexplicable, despite decades of research into consciousness) pleasure we get from experiencing it.

Try telling that to your date, then you'll get to try some lonliness chemicals.

I thought it originated from fear, "please god, don't let the big mean thing eat me".
