The shape is know as a "Geoid" pronounced - "gee + yoid".It is a geometrical shape, albeit a complex one.
(Or at least I think it is)

Well, actually I agree with Series 4x for the most part. However, I believe math is an ultimate representation of the physical univers - if you know what ot base it on (theres the catch). It is a system that CAN, potentially represent the universe on any scale if you simple have the knowlage to apply it. Altough, here's somehting to cheer Series up - the laws of physics are not immutable. By measureing the light waves from distant parts of the universe, it's been found that atom behave slightly differently in different parts of the universe. This implies that the laws of physics are not quite immutable.
Getting back on the main topic though, true love does exist. It is a feeling so intense as to be almost painfull and does not fade even after years of seperation (although you can become 'used' to it). Think of every song and cliché, and they apply perfectly. It is possible to live without emotions and function properly (I do it myself most of the time), but to deny your feeling is to make you weaker - you deny a part of yourself. It's like pain - you can endure what you accept, resists and you are weak. This is not to say that emotions cannot be controlled - however controling love is not something I want to do (altough I have had to once or twice), mainly because I like feeling this way. I think that anyone who hasn't experienced this.. well they have my sympathies.
I think Shakespear put it best :
It's better to have loved and lost that never to have loved at all
apt...

Not a good sign.

Where did you read this?
"Getting back on the main topic though, true love does exist."
What is the difference between "true" love and just love?
I can't remember actually. I think it was either discovery channel or einstein.tv
The difference? Well with 'true' love.. you just know. It's the only way I can explain it. It hits you like a half-brick right between the eyes

"The difference? Well with 'true' love.. you just know"
Love is love, people can grow to love each other gradually and love one another just as much if not more than people who instantly feel something.
"I can't remember actually."
I'm rather dubious, i have not read anything about the phenomenon you describe, infact everything i have read has pointed to the opposite.
One more time:Clyde
It is a geometrical shape, albeit a complex one, my statement still holds true:
The Earth is not a perfectly flat (in its mathematical sense) surface.
You can define the earth to be a "geometrical" shape, and that's true according to the geometrical system. Just as true as when Eve were made of Adams rib according to the religon.
Religon has created some descriptions which cannot be applied on reality.
The mathematical system has also created some descriptions and shapes which cannot describe reality. Such an incomplete system is doomed to be removed because it's wrong. Reality does not consist of "perfect" mathematical shapes, those shapes don't exist other than in your head.
Now we can clearly see the limitation of emotion controlled life forms such as Clyde, they have problems being corrected because their emotions prevents it. They are automatically against me.
An incomplete description is wrong. People cannot form a truthful mental picture of the earth nor anything else.You are branching off on a tangent, however you are correct in so far as decriptions of an object's shape is most of the time a simplfication, but it doesn't matter, because people KNOW that its a simplification, its not like when people say "the Earth is round" they actually mean its a perfect sphere.
This is like going to a church and listen to a priest. A priest is just as convinced as you are, but he can't tell why. He's just using a religous system which consists of man-made laws to describe his beliefs. And you, you and many others just swollow all the scientific nonsense that media feeds you with. That's your doomed belief-system. It will change until it's completely gone.Drivel, i have enough information to descibe as much or as little as i wish, without ever being wrong
For many people, there is no such choice. Love needs two or more people to exist. And if you don't have the necessary qualities to be loved, or to love, there's no choice for you.DiskJunky
It's better to have loved and lost that never to have loved at all
>And if you don't have the necessary qualities to be loved,
>or to love, there's no choice for you.
And what qualities would that be ? Love goes strange ways, and I don't think anyone is beyond love.

She was so Blonde, she spent 20 minutes looking at the orange juice can because it said "Concentrate."
When in doubt, read the FAQ.
Then ask a smart question.
"You can define the earth to be a "geometrical" shape, and that's true according to the geometrical system."
You don't need to "define" the earth to be a geometrical shape the Earth IS a geonmetrical shape, ALL shapes are geometrical shapes.
"Religon has created some descriptions which cannot be applied on reality"
Because they are false, not just innacurate, false.
"The mathematical system has also created some descriptions and shapes which cannot describe reality"
You can use maths to describe things to whatever accuracy you desire.
"Such an incomplete system is doomed to be removed because it's wrong."
Its not "wrong" or "incomplete" you can use maths to descrive things to whatever accuracy you desire. The limitation is NOT mathematics its how we use it.
"Reality does not consist of "perfect" mathematical shapes, those shapes don't exist other than in your head."
Reality dose not consist of simple shapes (in the most part) no, but it does consists of shapes and shapes no matter how complex can be described with maths.
"Now we can clearly see the limitation of emotion controlled life forms such as Clyde"
.....
"they have problems being corrected because their emotions prevents it. They are automatically against me."
I have no problem being corrected, but your conclusion are simply false, you make false statements, and seemingly lack the ability to draw logical conclusions (eg. "because we cannot describe the universe infinitely accurately therefore everyone must die", which is no different to "because my computer mouse is not a real rodent therefore there must be orangutangs that eat fruit on Mars" - completey logical disparity).
"An incomplete description is wrong. People cannot form a truthful mental picture of the earth nor anything else. "
No, an incomplete discription is incomplete. Your statement is clearly rediculous, if i say there is a horse outside (and there is) it is not a "wrong" description, it might not describe the scenario with infinite accuracy, but its not meant to.
You are correct however in saying that people cannot form a "truthfull" mental picture of the Earth, but...... so what? We can overcome the limitations of our perception with maths.
"This is like going to a church and listen to a priest. A priest is just as convinced as you are, but he can't tell why"
Priests do not have logic i on the other hand do, and i can tell you why.
"He's just using a religous system which consists of man-made laws to describe his beliefs."
His beliefs are illogical, founded on faith, my beliefs are logical and founded on evidence. People build cars, aeroplanes, ships, computers, on the basis of my "beliefs", and they work.
"And you, you and many others just swollow all the scientific nonsense that media feeds you with. That's your doomed belief-system. It will change until it's completely gone."
Media? I'm a science student i know how and why science works. I don't have a belief system whatever the hell that means. Science just means working out the properties of the universe in a logical manner thats ALL it is, nothing more, nothing less. To do that we have to throw away how we percieve the world in front of us, and so we do, we are not constrained by concepts impossible to concieve of, you see our inability to picture the world "as it is" does not stop us finding our how the world really is.
You have yet to show any reasoning what-so-ever for your perculiar beliefs, i find it very strange debating with you, occasionally you say something intelligent but then you totally fail to draw a valid conclusion from it and its almost like you don't understand why the bits that you say that are correct are right......
You haven't by any chance read a book that you've taken to heart as you're foudning philosophy?

Hello!!!! ****ING Everybody!!! I'm DRunk Like Anm ******* ****er right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY BOOOZE ON THE DESKTOP HAS LIMITED THE SHATEPE OF THE EARTH.
I will quote nv :
[quote]NVVOIGHT
And what qualities would that be ? Love goes strange ways, and I don't think anyone is beyond love.[/QUEO]
I just CTRROLL + COPY. LOL
I AM BEYONF LOVE, for exampole I would do anything to get a n hug right now, but I'm al alone, efveryone hates me, I know that you realy true hates me alot.
I'm beyone love , I'm forcef to kill peiopeö. The rtuth is tha hI believ in shatan, satan is real like snow!, And hes the only satan that loves me, he forces me to hate people, but everyone hates me.
I'm not alone when satan is here, he loves me, hes the teonly one that is satan enoth to love me!!!! I LIke exclamatioan mark, they akes such aa feeling.
AND you clydee . youre ah real genius except for me, I don't ahvae any emotions im just drunk in the head.d
submit it I will do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND IGF YO Want to die I recomend you to domwnloda some mysterris domn stahnas, it will kill yo all.
MAYHEM, the mysteris dom satanas.
Number 4 , pagan fears,
The bloody history from the past,
deaceased humans now forgotten
An age of lagends nad fears
A time now so distandt
and soi onm, it killed me, this music killed me, I was a positive human before I gor tose claws inside of me, the only thing I can see know is satan.
I'm crying that satan will not leave mem I would be so alone without satan.
Don't trust me, I can destroy you all and send you to hell. Do't ölisten.
I really don't think everyone hates you, i certainly don't.
Remember to drink lots of water and/or milk before you go to sleep
I don't believe you.
Your picture of everything is wrong, therefore your belief that you don't hate me is also wrong.
"Your picture of everything is wrong"
In so far as the way I perceive the world around me is inaacurate...... yes, but I know that, hence it does not affect my understanding of how reality actually is, and that is what counts.
"therefore your belief that you don't hate me is also wrong."
Logical disparity; you cannot picture the world infinitely accurately therefore you must hate me........... rodents....
Emotion has nothing to do with how accurate our senses are.
