trade215 - 'Thinking causes all the trouble.' - Thanks, yours is the best answer! I'm sure many a Zen/Buddhist master would agree with you :)

mercurius - I heard about a lecturer who was once asked by a student "Is life a paradox?". "Well, yes and no," replied the lecturer..

Pericles - You said, "Ev, it is a primitive control mechanism, used by almost everyone who has ever chosen to acquire power."

Yep, in his book 'Mein Kampf' (My Struggle/Fight), Adolf Hitler said something about that I think, brazenly described how you must divide everything into positive and negative emotions in order to control the population.

Thanks everyone for all the comments. Sorry I can't reply to everyone but I did read and consider all the posts.
