Thanks, good to know that humans not only like to eat and drink junk, but like to to eat and drink many varieties of junk! Thanks "Dr" Moskowitz for all the junk.

Some people want young white females to mix with non-white males.
I made a one-minute video highlighting a very small sample of race-mixing advertisements.
I love white people, and I am opposed to race-mixing. But I do not hate non-whites.
If you click on my name "awhitesoul2012" highlighted in blue below this comment, you can watch my video.
Thanks.

@littlebrainbighead If you look at choice from the consumer viewpoint, it pretty much says that consuming makes us happy, when often we are consuming because we are not happy. A broader base of choices brings fulfillment? How about learning to make from scratch? THAT could be really fulfilling, and much richer in nutrition!

@littlebrainbighead If you have a world with thousands of options or just one option, & that option is not based upon truth that is true no matter who agrees with it, it's the same prison. Ultimate truth is liberating. Look at 1st Century Christians: no choices, thrown to lions, martyred in horrific ways, yet the church grew like wildfire even (or especially!) when persecuted. They died to themselves to live for their Lord, & nothing could stop them.

@littlebrainbighead We may have a bit of difference in worldview perspective here. I'm thinking on a more basic principle that happiness does not come from ourselves. Fulfillment does not come from ourselves. The more centered on ME that I become, the more depressed, self-absorbed, and narcissistic I become. When I lose myself for a greater good, a greater One, then I begin to experience fulfillment. The Self is the worst slavemaster in the world.

@KnightofMotley [cont'd]
If, for example, I imagine a world with one political ideology or one religion, I think I would be forced to accept (or at least consider) the idea that the implicit restrictions of that singular system would hinder the happiness of some. Access to other ideologies, however, may allow them further self-exploration, a more pleasing sense of truth, and, perhaps, fulfillment (which I think we both believe DOES have a significant effect on happiness).

@KnightofMotley do you think that the phrase "Choice brings fulfillment" and "Fulfillment can be more easily attained by exposure to choice" encompass the same idea? Reading your thoughts I was inclined to agree, but I now think that there may be some further subtlety to explore.
I think that having choices (of the general kind that you mention) allows us to explore what we believe and that a thorough understanding of who we are brings us fulfillment/happiness.

@KnightofMotley it's entirely possible that we are just louder these days. |
