The world is exhausted and the only wealth we have left is love. Is love the most powerful thing in the world?

[StingRayxoxo]

Not just romantic love. Any kind of love.

[lightbulb27]

It's the only power worth its time and energy. Actually, I think it is timeless, and that's it's power. Before that is faith and hope, cause without that, how does one get to love?

I swear some old figure talked about this subject, but darn if can think of His name... what a nut job he was, walking around in the sand talking about love... good grief those old generations were something else, maybe ate too many olives... oh well.

ahhh... nothing says love like Barbara Streisand...
oh go snuggle your boyfriend and hug some kids or something...

[StingRayxoxo]

Yes yes. And some have faith and hope and others have one without the other.

Sounds like my lightbulb friend...

Did someone cut an onion over here?

[lightbulb27]

ooohhhh.. took me sec to figure out that onion. tears of joy are wondeful things!
some days lightbulb goes off nice and bright!;) And yes, actually the other kinds of love sometimes are better... less complicated strings and alter emotions that conjur up. Maybe that's why there are so many cat ladies and dog men? pure love in the form of a Golden Doodle!:)

[Logorithim]

Yeah, that would include love for your family and those with whom you identify.

[Logorithim]

Thanks for the MHO

[MlleCake]

Oh baby, you are soooooo right.

This is my essential philosophy in life.

Wealth can only do for you what money does.

But love is miraculous.

[Hannajenky]

I feel this is true

[TripleAce]

Let’s take that to the extreme end for a second
‘The world is exhausted and all we have left is love’ ok that essentially means we are back in the stone ages

- No light bulbs because no power coming through because no power plant exists? Ouch Lol
- no more clean water. Boiling all water now all the time
- dinner is a knife to a snakes head roasted on the fire
- no medication because no companies exist

It’s debatable lol
You can just love a girl a bit less and still be kinda happy? I’m not sure

[StingRayxoxo]

Sure, it doesn't have to be so extreme. Thanks for pointing that out.

No medication... earthly remedies. Hmm not so sure about that.

[TripleAce]

lol... usually im the one to say love wins over all - but im not sure how many of us would be willing to give all this up for true love... not sure... its a life of misery coming from first world luxuries

if it was less extreme then maybe yes...
-> earthy remedies are great ya but they won't be enough...

[gentlemanscholar]

My motto in life is Love Conquers All.
Love is the greatest Elixir known to humanity and love in all its forms, is as old as time itself, love will never become outdated. Personally, I think that there is great beauty in the mystery of human love that it is a truly remarkable gift, which this world needs most of all... the power of love in all its forms; is like an eternal blooming flower that does not fade or faint, it keeps blooming, even in the harshest winter or the darkest hour.
Love always makes away; a path that although rough and hard, it is safe to tread.

[Bluemax]

Love, although very powerful, is not the most powerful thing in the world.

Feeling remorse for the people we have hurt is the most powerful thing in the world, followed closely by forgiveness. Love is in 3rd place.

[StingRayxoxo]

I would agree that remorse or empathy is quite powerful. But forgiveness... that can be lethal.

[Historylover18]

1 Corinthians 13:13 And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

I would say love is the most powerful thing in the world because God is the most powerful thing in the world, and that I believe love comes from God and God is love

[Anonymous]

Looking at the answers you see what's wrong with the world today
Of course love is the most powerful thing in the world. Just because you're depressed and haven't found it yet, doesn't mean it doesn't exist
Log off from Instagram, get out a bit
It's a beautiful world

[Coffee_Mug]

Actually no. Now money is the most powerful thing. You can buy love nowadays. People will love you for your money.

Love is powerful but not the most powerful lately.

[Kaazsz]

Yes love is the most powerful thing. Love, and horniness. Horniness will ensure we make more babies and love will ensure we recreate families to raise those babies.

[hansukota]

No. One can also lose his love for the other and vice versa. But in the end all u have is life. Nothing is more important in this world than life. Money CAN buy happiness and love provided u know how but not life.

[lMike]

I don't know.. id have to say an M1 Abrahms is more powerful then love.

[StingRayxoxo]

And is that even the most upto date model?

[Alistayr]

It may not be just yet, but you're right, it wil be.

[Ella_101]

It sure is.. However your still screwed without money

[pumaOH24]

Yep.. love is a very powerful thing and can effect your mood in many different ways!

[Jean-Marie_Céline]

Yes.
Love has the power to both build and destroy.

[motownplayer2000]

Yes. Love can overcome a lot! Like a lot, that’s the only thing that will change people’s heart, love will turn away hate, in the right manner.. and it’s the only thing I really can give freely!

[latinabutterfly96]

It isn’t. I believe something more powerful is the ability to influence people.

[Anonymous]

Um,..

[emmily2396]

No, probably a quasar is the most powerful thing in the Universe.

[Anonymous]

No an apache helicopter is more powerful with missiles and rockets.

[EDWINDUNDEE999]

Yes love is the best thing in the whole world l need love and lots of cuddles

[Deathraider]

I'd say no.

Society overemphasises the importance of love.

[Liam_Hayden]

it can be. If we were all charitable with each other the world would be a much better place.

[Poormanscomedian]

not really , I have 4000 ounces of silver heading towards 10,000 ounces

[cth96190]

Love is a delusion that is caused by brain chemistry.
Economics and military power are real.

[SirRexington]

But love is being subverted in exchange for work and constantly trying to prove your value to society. Plus too many people are whores now, openly too.

So we don't even have much of that.

[JohnThomasCarter]

Of course! It's in our biology- love, reproduce, die.

[Megatrizzle]

If all the wealth we have is love, then no wonder I'm fucking broke.

[Tilin29]

I am quite sure that an atomic bomb is more powerful than love

[TheOnlyAriii]

Its 1:34am and im urged to ask you this question : do you think godzilla would survive an atomic bomb

[Tilin29]

Debateable. I highly doubt it since in the movie it dies by gunfire if I remember correctly (I always fall asleep for that part lmao).
So I'd say no... it doesn't have regenrative abilities either.. it's just a giant gecko that wants lobe

[TheOnlyAriii]

Godzilla DIES IN THE MOVIE WHAT

[TheOnlyAriii]

didn't it save the world and then go back underwater

[Twat_Twig]

Y'all talking about fake ass godzilla lol. The 1998 movie? Hell yeah an atomic bomb would kill that thing. I don't know about the real godzilla though. He breathes radiation so my personal opinion is it wouldn't do shit to him.

[Tilin29]

Yeah but the blast of it would probably incapacitate it. Unless Godzilla is actually SCP-682 in disguise. (Look it up on the scp wiki)

[Twat_Twig]

Here's a copy/paste from Quora. com:

Godzilla withstood the combined Nuclear arsenal of the world in the 1984 movie…and became even stronger

In 2004 he took the impact of a asteroid carrying Monster X slamming into his face…generating 30 megatons of force. And that’s if the asteroid was only the size of Monster X it could have been bigger.

Godzilla swam through molten magma…and that same Godzilla had an internal body temperature of 12000 Celsius before his body began to break down and explode with 1000x the combined power of the worlds nuclear arsenal this Godzilla isn’t even the strongest.

Godzilla is a fictional creature and is not bound to real life science think of him as a giant monster with power rivaling some super heroes. Watch the Godzilla movies yourself and search for the information if you have not done this you can’t really even confront this topic.

[Unit1]

The only wealth i have left in my life is my job. Money.
And even that i don't have much of.

It's all i have.

[Rangers]

Well, I'm broke on both accounts, lmao

[StingRayxoxo]

LOL To feel the emptiness makes the fullness, or even a taste of it, that much more intense.

[oncpl]

Yes. It is the most powerful and only wealth in the world.

[Dchrls78104]

The world is exhausted from running on the treadmill of wealth and leaving love behind.

[TohhhruAi]

Nah it’s sex, that’s what everyone cares about more

[MrMansonsPocketPssy]

Besides hate, yeah
xx
~ Mrs Manson

[ChiTown33]

Nope! God's grace is.

[Historylover18]

1 John 4:8-16

[ChiTown33]

@Historylover18 Matthew 22: 36-40 lol it's funny right after i hit "enter" it hit me that i shoulda connected love to that. because you're right. It's funny my sister always likes to say "Everything that is good in this world comes from god".
I guess i was just trying to illustrate that if we're going to talk about love. As humans we cannot touch god's love. And his grace is the ultimate expression of that love.

[Historylover18]

Exactly. God is love because it's the greatest of His creation

[Saville_Row]

It should be, but no, currently is money.

[angry_llama]

It is, the world needs more compassion and empathy

[Myk13]

Love is a powerful double edged sword.

[graphitezl1]

Money > Love
It’s the sad truth

[apple24]

MONEY. Money make me happy.

[4465loveyou5577]

I think it will remain when all else falls.

[sasukeuchiha7]

Yes it is. The ones thing that transcends all

[baram]

Yes I think, love is what moves the world...

[bladedshard]

Money/currency still remains more powerful.

[sunofdavis]

I love you, random stranger on the internet!

[Clyde_123]

Love you too ;) lol

[sunofdavis]

❤❤❤❤❤

[Clyde_123]

:* :* ❤❤❤❤

[Razal]

Yes it is extremely powerful

[grega239]

Guess I'm broke then

[StingRayxoxo]

I was broke for so long. Now I know I have an even greater understanding of the riches.

[infinty__xx]

Nope money is

[MouthfulofDiamonds]

Amen

[TsubasaCorrupted]

Absolutely is

[JulieRoze7]

Yes... agape love

[Rawkstar26]

Yes, Unconditional love.

[ryryryan]

Without desire, y would anyone do anything?

[ChiPaPa]

Meh..

[TheWombRaider]

Absolutely because God is pure love 100% love

[Tilin29]

Yes that just about right represents the suffering by cancer patients, starvation and war. 100% love indeed.

[TheWombRaider]

@Tilin29 that's not caused by God that's caused by man sitting and disobeying God if you break the law you get a ticket you did it to yourself you broke the law you can't blame the fucking cop you're the one that broke the law at least understand how it works before you start blaming God child

[Tilin29]

So god is not all powerful? Even though he had the power to create man, he could not make mankind good, nor control it?

[TheWombRaider]

@Tilin29 man committed a sin broke the law and repercussions for breaking the law is death cancer misery stuff like that that's not caused by God that's caused by man's own actions can't blame God if you go a hundred down a Dam Road that's 25 and you get pulled over in thrown in jail you cost at not the fucking cop you did you can't blame the cop

[Tilin29]

Besides the bubonic plague wasn't caused by mankind. It was an outbreak of a virus, which mutated over the course of years. It took children't lives. Literally the most innocent beings.

[TheWombRaider]

@Tilin29 but he's all-powerful it doesn't mean anything he gave you a way out it's called in obedience which is earned you have faith in your works by obeying him give you eternal life you'll just get it you're trying to get a fucking hand out

[Tilin29]

Okay so why do 3 year olds get cancer? Why do they?

[TheWombRaider]

@Tilin29 so do you think I'm a murderer should just go free because God's all-powerful and not be punished that's exactly what you're saying they broke the law I think you don't understand the concept that in God's eyes whether you lie steal murder somebody cover worship another God it's all the same there's no such thing as degrees of sin one penalty one sin is not greater than the other in God's eyes Alloys just as bad as murder

[TheWombRaider]

@Tilin29 gives you a way out but you have to earn that fucking way out you committed sins you've lied you've done something broken the law God is Holy you cannot be around sin you can't be like I lived a good life cuz I didn't murder anybody but I lied and God's eyes it doesn't matter allies just as bad as murder it's all the same

[Tilin29]

Don't switch the topic. A proven and convicted murderer gets locked away. He's not punished by god, he's punished by the court after the police investigate the case.

No it's not all the same with every god. Satanists for instance don't believe you can't redeem yourself in your life by just being good.

[Tilin29]

Okay bud, say god is almighty but look around you, look at innocent lives tortured.

Look at the wars in the past started in the name of religion

Look at terrorist attacks nowadays in the name of religion.

Continue living a lie that god can do anything but just refuses to and punishes innocent lives. The difference between him and satan is that satan makes guilty people suffer for their crimes and does not take innocent lives.

[TheWombRaider]

@Tilin29 dude you're not understanding the concept bro you think it's bad to murder because it's in the Ten Commandments that's not man's law that's God's law you're mixing the two there's Ten Commandments in God's eyes if you break one of them you break them all lying is just as bad ask killing for disobeying God and breaking the law human beings now I have to deal with suffering death and guess what we do it to each other we go to war we kill each other why you trying to blame God why don't you just stop doing that like he says LOL God is Holy he's an all-consuming fire if you are in the presence of God since you are a human and have broken his law you would be immediately consumed God cannot be around any sin there's no such thing as one sin is worse than the other in the eyes of God they are all equal you a man think they're not you think you can live your life and lie and do things but not murder in its I'm a good person that's not how it works you count to be sinless completely the wage for sin is death whether you die by the sword of bullet cancer or hurricane it doesn't matter do you understand this is not a permanent life and how you are killed on this life doesn't matter it's how you lived it did you obey the Lord did you have faith

[TheWombRaider]

Is a fuck if you got rid of every single disease and every single whatever you would still die of old age you still end up at the same. Dead

[killer4212]

I think there's enough wealth

[Furuok]

God is love

[linc1]

Sad to say no

[Ultimate_Gohan]

Video games are love
