    Somewhat misleadingly, not answered by monks. (also somewhat misleadingly, I am not a monk)

    I tried to answer a few carefully, I got several in a row all on the topic of loneliness. Then I took a look at some of the answers people have given... and while some are beautifully crafted, others are not.

    While there are obvious idiots everywhere, I think a greater risk might be that many well-intentioned people (myself included) are attempting to answer questions we are not qualified to answer, especially given the lack of context in the questions.
