Hello Yoyos, I was recently fascinated by a quote by Friedrich Nietzsche (尼采) so I think we can discuss about this quote on session one. On session two we will extend the topic to a superhero Batman's "No-Kill" rule. Hope you like it. Session One: Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the...

Hello everyone, Have you heard of “ End of History Illusion ” before? Let's talk about this phenomenon on 10/23 (Sat.) Come and join us. According to Wikipedia, it's a psychological illusion in which individuals of all ages believe that they have experienced significant personal growth and changes i...

Hello Everyone, We are going to discuss a fascinating topic that I hosted once in 2017. The topic is about extraterrestrial life and its relation with God. I revise a bit the questions for discussion. Hope you enjoy the topic. https://static.scientificamerican.com/sciam/cache/file/9C77869F-AB47-4EBD...

One more video about the sheep.

Oh Sheep!

It seems to indicate that the perception of the intent and action is subject to what stance one takes. You are right. It seems there is no such a unanimous agreement on what's absolutely good or bad on intent and action. Attempting to control the result seems beyond the realm of possibility. Howeve...

To answer the last question, I figure that it may come into focus for a believer of the afterlife more than others. For a pro-afterlife, the trajectory of one's intentions and actions probably will not deviate much from the moral standards. They genuinely believe that there is a day of reckoning in...

The road to hell is paved with good intentions is a proverb or aphorism. An alternative form is "Hell is full of good meanings, but heaven is full of good works", wikipedia says.

Luis, it's great you find this proverb. Do you buy into this idea?

To our host, don't let your mind look older than your body! Age is just a number.
Here comes some food for thought, "When death finds you, may it find you alive!"

Thanks, Iris.
Here is a tribute to your message.

One inadvertently glimpse over your forum profile that, self-described comes from the “Lonely Planet”, I can't help but paint a picture of a slim man that is overwhelmed with loneliness, and even permeates a little bit of sadness somehow. That image somewhat displays “old” to me; however, the allur...

I would say “the best time” is a state of mind. If one can achieve the state of mind they are looking for... It's true. But it's also true that the physical world can make the process of achieving this state of mind harder or easier. I wonder if it's possible for human beings to bypass it. Rock, I ...

Hello everyone, Sorry for posting the topic late. Although we talked about this topic 2 years before in YOYO, I believe we still can find some new meaning from the discussion, and I revise the discussion questions. See you soon.

Thank you.

4. One of my family members has a small bad habit that drives me crazy. Everytime she gets in home, she does not put the door key on the right place and just drops it anywhere by random. So, next time when we need to go out, the key can not be found right away and we have to waste a lot of time to ...
