Basically we believe less in platonic love, idealize it less, are less naive about it, etc. I think that reading this work with Dennett's hypothesis in mind would be interesting.Brian Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15139559400312336791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1434302889299955261.post-77625739473296441062013-02-13T21:20:03.667+00:002013-02-13T21:20:03.667+00:00great choice for valentines day Gary ,all the best...great choice for valentines day Gary ,all the best stustujallenhttp://winstonsdad.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
