Through the lens of hedonism, it's possible to see the value in all belief systems, as they are all simply different ways that humans pursue pleasure.

“Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.”

By referring to ‘devotion to pleasure’, we put the importance not simply on acquiring the things that give us pleasure, but on the benefit of cultivating pleasure in all of our relationships.

The least conscious form of Hedonism is exactly how babies seem to experience the world: good or bad stimulus followed by knee-jerk reactions.
