Why are agnostics and atheists so hostile to my non-theistic belief of theological noncognitivism?
Triphid comments on May 16, 2019:
Not wishing to sound either dismissive or derogatory here BUT aren't you simply just trying to preach/gain sympathy, etc, since most Atheists/Agnostics, imho, do NOT simply debased/denigrate the believer BUT instead attempt to show how Irrational and Illogical the Belief System truly is? Now, IF I ...

Because "how could anyone break off with such as swell guy?" Then he showed up with the 55 year old porn queen....... And yes I felt pretty stupid, and missed a good chunk of my life, but even our doctor said, "you are not to blame yourself for trusting someone you have a right to trust".

@Sticks48 My second husband of 33 years was the very best liar there is. I wish I had a dime for every person who told me how lucky I was to have "such a fine man". Yup, screwing anything that moved, including my cousin's wife. Possibly in the hundreds. Who are you supposed to trust if not "the fine man" you are married to? I am not going to check odometer readings, or hire investigators, that would be a horrible way to live! And here you come, blaming the victim. Our doctor Congratulated me on not having caught something.....he knew but was of course bound by privacy rights. I worked in a shipyard, almost the lone woman amidst 20,000 men, for 13 years...I know and like men. Am I responsible for being fooled by a sociopath?

@ProudMerrie oh, they kind of all do IMO, after awhile. The OP wouldn't even llisten....kept insisting "tiny percentage" meet online, when it is about 40%, and has been for awhile. Horseback one-way 1.5 hours to the Grange dances for him!
I have no idea what people expect from meeting someone on a computer?

Have had a great Penpal for over 2 years from Plenty of Fish, we are not even that far apart but enjoy the way things are. Have also had the most hilarious, astonishing, even hair-raising experiences (real life, so much weirder than fiction) that I regale my friends with, to major effect! Wouldn't...
AnneWimsey replies on Apr 26, 2019:
@Touched the most hilarious came at coffee meets...the guy who dropped his pants in the Longhorn? The guy whose second sentence was "I'm looking for blow jobs"? The guy who wanted to "die in the saddle"? My friends laugh so hard they need Depends!

Have any of you noticed that the society is growing more towards the artificial? We have artificial everything from sugar, to salt, from meat to potatoes, from natural to plastic, from natural intelligence to artificial. This has not escaped me and this computerized substitute for human ...
AnneWimsey replies on Apr 26, 2019:
You could go back to riding horseback 1.5 hours to Grange dances, that's how grandma met my grandpa.......I'll bet any amount of $$$ you like he would have been thrilled to have a telephone! Or is that "too artificial" for you?

What does everyone think of the Satanic Temple being granted tax exemption as a church recently?
bootaski comments on Apr 26, 2019:
I think what they're doing and the statements they're making are good, but I personally wouldn't join their group. Even though their goal is to object to christianity, they're using a figure from the christian pantheon to organize their beliefs around. Using satan as their symbol brings too much ...

AnneWimsey replies on Apr 25, 2019:
@Allamanda I find your "I'm so much more intellectual than most of you" attitude repellent, if I didn't make it perfe fly clear before...also your ASSumption that this is solely a dating site is just weird.....

@Happy_Killbot no, sorry, I believe 99% of people know Exactly what is moral, whether they choose to ignore it or not. Like pornography, you know it when you see it (hear of it, commit it). Very little is actually ambiguous, as is shown by your struggle to find a good example.

@SeaGreenEyez he fired the guy (the police chief) that Did the "dirty deeds". Taping conversations over the phone can be a Federal crime...how did this police chief justify that? Paying accumulated sick & vacation time is quite custimary... you appear to not know much about the world.

Yet she would enthusiastically "assist bark" him. As soon as he sadly left me, she instantly reverted to complete silence...in fact I had to put a sign on the door that says "call my home phone, I cannot tell you are out here"
