That is lovely! Keep writing them!

Hi I'm new, I made this.

Carin comments on Oct 18, 2018:

What did you make? The picture didn't post. Sometimes you have to wait a bit for the picture to finish loading before you click to post. Anyway, welcome to Agnostic & I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

What manner of evil is this?

Carin comments on Oct 18, 2018:

What am I supposed to see?

I’ve tried internet dating on and off for 7 years with limited success.

Carin comments on Oct 18, 2018:

Not really--I've had really good luck here & it's the only one I've tried. One thing though, the guys were not people who I'd look at their profiles & think I had much in common with them. But after talking for a few days I was surprised how many values & interests we shared. They also happened to be a lot younger than I am, so maybe you could consider people outside you own age range? I sure understand about the materialism. Wonder if you can include (or exclude?) something in your profile to weed those people out & send them looking elsewhere before bothering you? I even consider being overly concerned with how someone looks a form or materialism & it's one of the reasons I don't have a photo in my profile. I'd rather they contact me because they're interested in something they read on my profile, or think we might be compatible emotionally. If they ask to see a picture I'm happy to share one or two. I hope you meet someone nice here! Good luck!

If the “ Christians “ would add nine months to their birthday ?

Carin comments on Oct 18, 2018:

You're right, they should if they believe that they were "babies" from the moment of conception. Of course most of them don't really believe that though--it's all about controlling women & their bodies & punishing them from being sexual. Seems like the totally lose interest in the welfare of those "babies" the second they're born.

This is just the sort of woman I would like to meet

Carin comments on Oct 18, 2018:

Sounds like a good person through & through. I hope you find her.

Truth, if ever there was truth.

Carin comments on Oct 18, 2018:

I just love it when guys post stuff like this! Thank you!

Happy Thanksgiving...

Carin comments on Oct 18, 2018:

I stuff a pumpkin for Thanksgiving, put the lid back on, wrap the stem in foil & bake it. It turns kind of bronze & makes a lovely focal point on the table, surrounded by traditional foods like mashed potatoes & gravy, cranberry sauce & pies. Way easier than a turkey & guilt free.

Sarah Sanders: Most kids taken from their families 'actually self-separated'

Carin comments on Oct 18, 2018:

Can't she be both at the same time? She is for sure evil but may be delusional since she assumes that people believe her nonsense.

Can I talk about my feelings for a bit?

Carin comments on Oct 18, 2018:

When you say you feel like you are breaking up with God, it sounds like you may still believe in him...are you leaving your church because of the problems you mentioned with other people there, the cat-and-mouse feelings & being afraid of going to hell for thinking independently? Or do you think god is not real, or probably not real? Just wondering because of the way you worded it--maybe you would feel better switching to a more modern, open church or even the Unitarians? They don't care if you are atheist or a believer. My sister goes there & finds them very accepting. They also take turns with other churches in staffing a homeless shelter, & they run a preschool I believe.

We are everything we are, without god.

Carin comments on Oct 18, 2018:

Sounds like a good rule of thumb. It's just another way of telling people they shouldn't think for themselves.

Any funny stories when you were young?

Carin comments on Oct 18, 2018:

Our family moved to Colorado from Michigan when I was in first grade. My mom was from Holland & neither of us knew what poison oak looked like. The teacher told everyone to bring in colorful fall leaves for a class project, & anyone out west knows poison oak has very beautiful fall colors... My mom got a call from the school & we had a substitute for 2 weeks--turned out my teacher had VERY severe reactions to poison oak.

Do atheists observe Halloween?

Carin comments on Oct 18, 2018:

I do! I'm only 5'1" so I can even get away with trick or treating. All these holidays, including Xmas & Easter, have roots in 2 or more belief systems but I don't pay any attention. It's all about the chocolate. Decorating & making costumes for the kids is fun too. Last year one was a microwave oven & won the costume contest at school.

Have you ever gone out with a true believer , you hit it off.

Carin comments on Oct 18, 2018:

That sounds hurtful & creepy. Wishing you better luck in the future. On second thought, I'd probably laugh if someone called me the devil--what was your reaction?

Carin comments on Oct 17, 2018:

Of course! How could they get every country that had a space program to go along with faking it? The USSR was our sworn enemy back then. & after all this time, at least one of the thousands of people involved would have let something slip.

Carin comments on Oct 16, 2018:

Never Judge People By Their Past? What Do You Think About This Statement? Can People Really Change?

Carin comments on Oct 16, 2018:

They may, but you still deserve to evaluate for yourself if you want to risk your heart & future on the hope that although they were once bad, they are now truly good & not faking on some level. If something about a potential friend or partner's past doesn't sit right with me I'll ask questions till I'm satisfied, or convinced by their evasiveness or attitude that I don't want to be involved with them. We have the right to protect ourselves. If they resent being asked about their past mistakes, they haven't truly dealt with them & accepted responsibility for their part in things.

I'm comfortable, does anyone else? ?

Carin comments on Oct 16, 2018:

I can be that way too.

Hey guys! I created an Infidelity Support Group.

Carin comments on Oct 16, 2018:

I would love to read how other people manage to divorce cheating spouses--I'm finding it quite daunting & have finally decided to just leave & go on from there. What the heck is the point of mandatory waiting periods for divorces? They're hoping we'll kiss & make up, or just give up?

What are your feelings about "Friends with Benefits"?

Carin comments on Oct 14, 2018:

No, I always end up getting attached & wanting more. Then things get sad.

My doctor just called me, pregnancy confirmed! I guess those pharmacy tests really do work.

Carin comments on Oct 14, 2018:

Congratulations!! So exciting! Babies are just the best thing ever!!! I'm a certified La Leche League leader with 13 years of nursing under my belt (or bra?) so please feel free to message me if you have concerns about nursing. It's good to learn about breastfeeding ahead of time because it doesn't always come naturally & if you do run into troubles you might be too tired or overwhelmed to find help. Have a wonderful pregnancy & birth. It's the most special part of being a woman. You can make another human being!! It's a superpower for sure.

Yep! Saw an ad on Facebook suggesting this was a dating site and quickly found that does not seem to...

Glad you stayed. It's fun here. I found friends as well as dates. You just never know...

What do you consider a healthy relationship?

Carin comments on Oct 14, 2018:

I wouldn't recognize a healthy relationship if it hit me in the face. Oh wait....

Who else can relate to this? ???

I love the holiday season!!

Ladies the 1 reason to date me is...... Drumroll..... I put the toilet seat down.

Carin comments on Oct 14, 2018:

I'm sure there are are even better reasons than that!

Need advice/your opinions... Would you go out on a date with someone who has the same name as an ex?

Carin comments on Oct 14, 2018:

Go out once & see how it feels maybe? Ask if they have a nickname too. Hope things work out for you.

Sigh.

Carin comments on Oct 14, 2018:

I'm so very sorry. It would almost feel better to be able to look back & be able to see warning signs, & hopefully to be able to learn from them. I have no advice for you--it happens to me too.

I'm thinking to apply a cold compress to your lip to try & reduce the swelling. Swelling is why you keep biting yourself. It should help the pain too. I'm not sure if kissing is safe if you have a break in your skin though...

Wow! What do I say?

Carin comments on Oct 7, 2018:

Why would you even want to came back? That was horrible. It really makes me think less of Agnostic & the people who run it. They also seem to be OK with jokes about hurting & killing kids.

Carin comments on Oct 7, 2018:

100% agree.

Ok, let's say you meet someone and you two hit it off.

Carin comments on Oct 2, 2018:

I would not have wanted to have kids without being married, & it's a fact that marriages last (on average) many years longer than live together relationships. I really wanted a very committed relationship & I felt that getting married reflected that. Now that my 30 year marriage was destroyed I value marriage a lot less & would probably go either way. I would wonder how finances are managed though. Also, in my state if you live together long enough it is enough that people have had to pay "palimony."

Whos up for some squab?

Carin comments on Oct 2, 2018:

Isn't squab a young pigeon who hasn't left the nest? Maybe feed the dogs inside or you might get rats, possums or raccoons that can really do some damage.

Music to the ears

Carin comments on Oct 2, 2018:

Oh yes!

Do other animals kiss? I thought that maybe a social animal like elephants might kiss.

Carin comments on Oct 2, 2018:

I do agree with Eldovus. Kissing originated from parents feeding their older babies chewed food. We didn't always have baby food! In fact some moms still do this today, but put the food in their mouths with fingers, not directly mouth to mouth! Many parrot-like birds appear to kiss when courting--they are regurgitating food into each other's beaks, they way they will do for their offspring. So many of us associate food with affection.

I need some kissing advice from the ladies. Okay so what do you look for in a kiss?

Carin comments on Oct 2, 2018:

You could also just wait for her to kiss you. If I like a guy I will kiss him first--stand on my tip-toes & kiss him gently him on the cheek. I feel it's less pushy & gives him more choice about how he wants to respond. & I've never had a single one that didn't want more after that. So maybe try to worry less & don't feel pressured. If you just give her a kiss on the cheek you're not putting your feelings at risk so much. If she turns her face towards you, she wants a little more. Good luck. I'm sure you will meet someone nice.

Not even the first time that has happened!

Carin comments on Oct 1, 2018:
