the language you are using is quite amusing especially when you was doing your thing in the toilet.

Well, it's always nice to be amusing on the toilet.

about my comment about why still want to live instead of killing ourselves is not refer at the moments when everything is quite fine.
i mean usually we are keep going and deal with the usual everyday tasks.
its ideal to have a nice job , a nice family a house wonderful kids and wife nice relatives and friends.
but there are moments which everything goes up side down and some of us they lose everything because of health problems, money or i dont know what else.
it will be good if we get some kind of support from partners, relatives or friends. and now i am saying if at these moments things are not going the way we are expecting.
for me the worst nightmare is a war or being homeless alone sleeping on the streets.
and why i am talking about reproduction or survival? who we are going to protect or take care? we will able to kill in order to save ourselves or relatives? I dont believe in god but propably i will wait something to stop the madness. it is like praying for lotto and never win.
i try not to watch the news but a long time i feel that things will get worse. i am sorry if my thinking is a little bit confusing.
ok my statement is sometimes i dont believe in love or friendships.
but i am scared to admit this.
i am afraid about a war or being homeless because nobody really cares.
i cant face loosing everything because there will be no god or other people to help. its like the law of the jungle.
i hope i dont sound so crazy.
its the first time i express these deep thoughts.

Actually, you don't sound crazy. You sound like you're looking for answers, and don't really know how to ask the questions. You started out with something about the colour of a sofa, and it seemed like you were trying to ask two things, one superficial and one more obscure:

1) Can we explain choices regarding preferred colour schemes by reference to evolutionary science?

2) I live in a part of the world that's pretty fucked up, where homelessness or war are both real possibilities in the near future, so how the hell do I deal with this shit? Can I get some comforting answers here?

Does that help?

I would like to believe that in thr future will be no nations, one language, no religions, no pfurther polution and control of the human population. Some religions demand from the followers to have many childrens and spread in the world. That's stupid except. We managge to populate other planets. In case of futured war it will be first between religions and of course the real reason will the oil or other natural sources.
How can we get rid of religions? One nation one language no borders
