Now... by using the word "idea" in my question - I kind of give away my stance on this issue. Personally, I would say love originates in the mind - whether you are conscious or unconscious of it. Where the whole "heart" correlation came from, I don't know... historical writings or poems + a metaphor of "the essence of life", perhaps?

So why is the heart referenced in "love" soo often if it is physiologically incapable of processing such emotion? riddle me THAT...

There are thousands of reports of god healing all sorts of mallidies through his power, but none of them involve people growing back limbs. He does say he will answer prayrs, so I am pretty sure that at some point, somebody asked him to give them back a leg, or an arm, or something....

Well, to give you an example. She is writing a fictional story set in the 60's.....she has never smoked weed before in her life, but to be able to give a real description of what it is like to get high she smokes some marijuana.

Do you think someone who does something like that is very dedicated to their work or do you think something else?

If I remember from last year's world history class, the first civilizations were the Sumerians, the Egyptians, the Chinese, and a mysterious Indian civilization. My questions are what is this lost Indian civilization referred to as today, why was it lost, and how similar was this ancient culture to today's Indian Hindu culture?
