An idea for a new topic: Passion.
Passion is an antithesis to apathy, so it is a positive quality. However
passion may be triggered memetically, when internal and dear memes are
threatened, which is clearly undesirable. Is it possible to have a purely
intellectual passion which is driven by reason, or must there still be some
sort of memetic foundation which underlies it all?
Seems like a good idea at the time :]
especially as there has been a lot of pumping of hot blood in the list.
Thoughts?
