The only opinions that really matter are handed down by courts with armed
marshals.
So, obviously, this is just for fun.
A creative mind never gets bored, except when stressed-out from creating
opinions.
A sophisticated, intelligent, central nervous system that doesn't function via
limbic inputs or hypothalamus actions would require an enormous amount of work
to build, as those who work day and night to build such an entity must know.
Do our minds become less stressed-out and given to boredom when we turn off our
limbic inputs or hypothalamus actions?
Where does stress and boredom go when we awaken to the immensity of
consciousness beyond the particular?
