At what point do you think watching someone (like a loved one) sleep becomes disturbing instead of romantic? Or is it disturbing altogether, in your opinion? Why?
I think it would be totally fine to watch a loved one sleep for as long as one liked. Why do I think this: You are not harming the sleeper by watching and it is a way to express love for that person, to give one reason.
Do you believe in love at first sight? Why or why not?
Yes, I think that people can notice someone and fall in love. I think there is so much which can be read at a glance about a person. Having said this all love must be ordered towards God and love is really service not emotion.

Do you think that doomsday scenarios related to AIs?
ALS being myotrophic lateral sclerosis. After a quick scan of an article it does seem like a very debilitating disease. However, in faith we know that all things work to the good of those who love God. So no matter what we face let us love God and all will be well. Lots of prayers for all those who face this great trial. I pray too that they will remember us as suffering born well for Christ is the greatest good we can achieve. This Christ himself has shown us and who can argue against that.

What would you describe as an emotionally charged situation and why?
One where the emotions are overpowering reason. As to why to I think an emotionally charged situation is one where the emotions are overpowering reason? I find that difficult to answer. This is the best that I can come up with.

Do you believe that mental health professionals should be required to attend psychotherapy sessions themselves? If yes, should it be done on a regular basis or just once? Why?
I think mental health professionals should be required to attend psychotherapy sessions themselves. I think they should attend these sessions on a regular basis. I think this should be done as they are exposed to people who are in poor mental health and this means they are particularly prone to mental breakdown themselves.
As an incidental factor it might be helpful for mental health professions to be subject to psychotherapy so as to help them to understand the stresses which their patients are subject to in this process. Perhaps to make this experience more realistic the fact that they themselves are mental health professionals might be withheld. A way would have to established where the withholding of this information would not damage the results of the session.

Some people, when asked about seemingly bizarre things that make them feel uncomfortable, automatically assume that the asker has a fetish regarding their inquiries. Are you one of these people? How would you define a fetish?
I try to reserve judgment on people and the judgment I am speaking of here is certainly not judgment about whether they are a good or bad person, that I cannot judge, but as the least a judgment about whether it is good for me to have contact with that person. With this principle in mind a single question about something apparently bizarre would not lead me to think that the person has a fetish. And on reflection even if I were to establish the person has a fetish, even a morally bad one, it would not necessarily make me break contact with that person.
How would I define a fetish. I think a common definition is something which a person considers sexually stimulating which is considered out of the ordinary. I think, though, that it is a pity that the word is losing the more common meaning of simply something which one finds fascinating.
PS Sorry, I have noticed that I did not really answer the first part of your question here. The simple answer is to that part of your question is no I am not a person who if asked about seemingly bizarre things, that make me feel uncomfortable, automatically would assume that the asker has a fetish regarding their inquiries.
When trying to answer your question simply I being to see the problem. One cannot answer your question simply as one then submits to at least one judgment on the answerer which is contained in the question: That being asked about seemingly bizarre things could make one feel uncomfortable. Yet on reflection I suppose that anyone could be made to feel uncomfortable by questions if they were bizarre enough.
This question has taken me so long to answer I am beginning to wonder if I might not have a fetish or two myself!

What historical figures do you most despise?
I try not to despise anyone as God loves all people and if I were to despise another how could God forgive me who is in comparison to his goodness is infinitely despicable.
To answer a different question: What historical figures do I think have done the greatest harm? It seems to be that we would have an endless litany of woes of terrible sins but yet God can and does make all this good.
First could we not accuse our common father Adam of bringing death into the world through his disobedience to God. Yet we can say as spiritual authors have throughout the ages "happy fault" that has brought us the God-man Our Lord, Jesus Christ.
I personally very much lament Martin Luther's attack on God's Church which has caused such intellectual and spiritual confusion and yet we know, by faith, that good will come of this too.
What anguish and destruction have been caused by Karl Marx with the rise of Communism and the rejection of God in Russian and in China still.
What horrors and hatred did Hitler introduce!
But all of these great atrocities are as nothing compared to a single soul who gladly does the will of God.

Oh, interesting! Are you that religious that could leave all this world pleasures and give your life to the "Creator"?
I really do have a great desire to do this. But it appears that this road is closed to me as I have tried to pursue a religious vocation for about 15 years.
Thanks so much for your questions Maria. I must go to bed now. Many blessings and I hope to be chatting on here again soon.

where most of the wild life of Africa is :)
I don't think that one should really seek the wild life. Then again it can be a way to draw closer to God to go to places where one's life might be at danger so as to bring Christ to that place.

Why did you go to jail?
If you have the patience to go back through my answer you find a lot information as to my arrest and my time in jail. You have to go quite far back though as I was surprised to find that this answer as to what were the charges is over a year old: http://ask.fm/StephenInd/answers/132781442202

Banishing certain feelings or emotions supposedly causes a person to develop a partial personality and prompts them to seek in others what they can't find in themselves. Do you believe you have a partial or a whole personality? Why?
I think banish feelings and emotions is an essential part to developing fully. Of course not all feelings and emotions should be banished and we should try as often as we can to harness these as a means to push us on on the difficult road of seeking perfection.

How do you think a person can gain the capacity to self-validate?
By self-validate I understand to be happy with themselves. Ultimately by striving to be more aware of God's love for us. What are the small steps that can be taken to doing this. I think there are infinitely many and we must try to be inventive with ourselves and sometimes almost trick ourselves to get out of bad habits and draw closer to God. The essential is prayer though. We must ask God to help us.

Why do people tend to look for confirmation that they are loved, in your opinion?
I suppose ultimately it is because we are not secure in God's love.

Do you think it is necessary for a human being to feel needed? Why?
We certainly have a deep need to feel needed. I think it is linked to us being made by God. We know that we are made by love and so for love. If we understand that we are made by love, by God, of course our need for feeling needed would really be satisfied and we would be able to love others more freely.

Do you believe that becoming a "caregiver" in a romantic relationship implies that a person has deep-seated, unresolved guilt which they are trying to compensate for by acting like a "savior" (e.g. with attempts to "fix" their partner)? Why?
I think that both people in a romantic relationship should play the role of caregiver. But not in a way so as to make the other person dependent on them. It is important to place God first in all relationships. This will help to prevent one from trying to take the place of God in the other person's life. I have recently learnt that an essential part of love is loving the person for who they are so freely without of fixing them. (I gather this is what St. Thomas Aquinas says of love.) We must of course desire the best for the other person and help them to achieve that.
Hope this is of some help.

How a graduated in architecture like you, ended up in the person of your profile pic? What happened? You should feel lucky to be good at maths, I would die to understand them... God give bread to those who don't have teeth.
I suppose I have abused my body a bit by putting it through rigours. If you have the time to read my answers here you will see that I have been through some quite difficult experiences. I have been hospitalized for mental illness, I lived "rough" for a number of years, I chose to use the state health care system, which is not that good, rather than to use my parent's money and I have been in jail for about 1,5 years standing trial (I must add that the charges were eventually dropped.) I have neglected my teeth, have never taken that good care of my facial skin and generally exposed my skin to a little too much sun. I have also quite often got less than the recommended amount of sleep.
I should also say that my father grayed early so that seem to be hereditary but the stress of jail pushed the graying process along.
Thanks be to God for helping us in our weakness. :-) :-) :-)
