       What do you think prevents them from experiencing   
   simple things like that Goo? As yet we have no reason   
   to believe they can't experience pride just as well as anger,   
   or envy, or fear. So it is up to YOU to explain what causes   
   the limitation, or we will have proof once again you don't   
   have the slightest clue what you're trying to discuss.
