 |  It's all about pleasure/pain
I saw this being mentioned by some technical/natural sciences people when they were talking about the psychology/nature of humans. A very simple "theory". I'll use my own words to make a definition: Everything/anything a person does is either to maximize the pleasure or to reduce pain or a combination of both. At first sight it seems like a true statement to me, haven't really thought about it very much tho. What do you think? BTW, I think that philosophically it could be debated heavily, due to potentially unclear definitions of pleasure/pain. But I'd rather stay "common sensish" on this one. |
