Author, your filters were exposed in the selection of those "drawn to conflict.:."  And all of us have these things to excite and inhibit.

The thing about being an unreasonable person, no cause or excuse is lost; there is, no matter how formidable, a way in logic to exonerate that is supported by what we commonly refer to as decency. It is better labeled naivete.

All so-called "conflict" is within ourselves; there is no outside source. Nothing happens to me or for me; it all happens within me.

All your reasons for why we seem to love conflict never mentions the essential: fear. It is the threat to control. It is te threat to certainity. It is the threat of waking up that is most threatening.
