True, Spock is full of Reason BUT is an 'empath',
as well, as OBVIOUSLY PRACTICED on STAR TREK,
LIKE SOME FOLKS ON THE SPECTRUM,
in metaphor, only, please.
Some folks talk.
Other folks 'read' minds.
Put the two together in working, cooperative, harmonious relationship and ya CAN get the Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock Effect and Affect in synergistic quantity and quality to potentially explore where
no man GOES before.
But IT will never work, very well, as long as 'people', not 'you', slow the process with character attacks.
Kirk and Spock understand each other's differences and use those differences in positive affect and effect to the great advantage of

It's tragic that one who played the Paradigm of Logic smoked. That's was why he passed away.
Yes, he became a big advocate for quitting and suffered permanent damage, despite quitting.

There will be nothing like the Original Star Trek.
They always sought to portray real human emotions, and they never took themselves too seriously, despite their "mission."
Interesting, I agree, and perhaps there will never be another time like the 60's when THAT many folks relax their 'puckering' enough to simply breathe.....AND LIVE.
The ART of a culture, usually, in all the diverse ways THAT comes, has A REAL grasp ON the heart or lack of heart, of its inhabitants.
Now 'we' have Vampires and Zombies, and NO, not surprising to me, AT ALL..

Humans are Great Apes biologically.
According to ?
Biologists. The scientific name is Hominidae, the group that includes chimps, humans, gorillas and orang utans. The gibbons are considerd lesser apes, although the name sounds a bit demeaning.

I'm not an ape.
Without a picture of you, we can't be certain of that.

Just one of many sources. As I recall, most of the evidence comes from geneticists, but there are also anthropological sources and a few other 'ologies.
Also, as I recall, genetic evidence also demonstrates the direction of change, from species A to species B etc.
It's very late (2.30am), so I'm forgetting my words.

In your world, you can never be certain of anything.

I AM AN APE and Here is the BEST PROOF OF THAT SO FAR.. from just a few hours ago....
AND SOME STUFF ABOUT GOD.. too....
NOTICE the GORILLA SOUNDS; they are MUCH clearer in this evidential video, And 'Four Five Seconds to WILDIN' TO complement IT, as well.. (Rihanna, McCartney, and West in tow, too)
LEG Pressing 930LBS on Friday, February 27, 2015, at the NASWF Fitness Center. The Leg Press is done on a Nautilus Parallel Free weight machine with 10-45LB weight plates on each side totaling 20-45LB weights at 900LBS, with the approximate weight of the lifting mechanism at 30LBS, for a total of 930LBS.
14 slow reps are accomplished with arms raised to focus strictly on leg movement for increasing maximum leg strength.
The machine normally holds a max of 810LBS, per 18 plates, so the last 45LB weight plate on each side is balanced off the length of the bar, to get to 20 plates.
AS far as I know there is no other parallel leg press machine in my metro area that will hold more weight so I guess I am stuck at this weight continuing to increase reps.
There is no doubt in my mind that I could lift well over one thousand pounds at lower reps at this point but I am stuck at this weight for the foreseeable future, again, it seems.
Anyway, I am 54 years old, and weigh in at 233LBS at around 6FT tall, with these clothes on before lifting.
People who tell you everyone gets weaker when they get in their 40's or 50's is going by the average of a very sedentary, overall unhealthy population that simply do not fulfill their fuller human potential.
Jack La LaLanne, a pioneer of strength training in the last century, already proves this is the case towing up to 70 boats swimming into his 60's. Most everything in life is a result of what a person believes are their limits.
Hold no limits, and there are always fewer limits to be realized.
Hold limits, and restrict human potential, as 99% of results are human attitude, I find now in older life FOR SURE.
The power of human relative free will mixed with faith, hope, belief, and more than anything the positive power of unconditional pro-social emotions aka Unconditional Love MOVES METAPHORICAL MOUNTAINS FOR THOSE PEOPLE WHO EMPLOY THE HIGHER POWER OF MOTHER NATURE TRUE AKA GOD.
IT'S AMAZING, JUST AS THE HUMBLE TEACHER JESUS STATES, PER WHAT IS POSSIBLE FOR HUMAN NATURE MORE FULLY REALIZED AND UNLEASHED from cultural repression, oppression, and subjugation through illusory fears.
That part does not change, for those folks who learn to master their inner human being, away from the material GOD of culture, and illusory GOD(s) of religion.
