Well I'm glad the Christchurch shootings are over, & I'm happy about the changes to gun regulation.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 28, 2019:

Everyone deserves to feel safe. The Christchurch shootings are pure insanity and one way to stop it or at least limit it greatly would never be approved by the world at large. What if those who did such shootings were simply lined up and shot in the same way? No glorying or big speeches involved on either side, just a statement that we condemn mass murder and those who commit it.

No specific goal here. I'm already a dinosaur. Current trends and actions of others simply amaze me. Cell phone fascination and trends and strange words abound. People are crazy! I know a man who got an insurance settlement, took a trip and bought so many things that he is quickly broke again. Not wanting that to happen to me, I want to die without pain and move on out of this nonsense. I don't know when but it will happen. Some people have a similar wish but they think they are moving on to their own personal heaven. Their bible said little about it so they created their own.

Age & Belief I am curious to know if belief in a god changes as we age and get closer to death.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 27, 2019:

I studied to be a Pentecostal preacher and suffered for years with the guilt that comes when you fall away from that. Actually, it was bible study that helped me not to believe. A close look at how we got our bible and just when and how this all came together shows without doubt that it's all nonsense. The older I get the more I am convinced of it. Others seem to think getting older should make me change my mind and "go back" to their god. Wrong! How could I ever go back to that? It's my belief that many who do are persuaded by a love interest that causes them to change rather than becoming a believer of the invisible man in the sky.

Any addicts/alcoholics in recovery here.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 27, 2019:

It's whatever works for you. My story is strange. I'm an alcoholic without question but I only drank every second day. I drank to excess deliberately and had both beer and whiskey, and I enjoyed doing it. I enjoyed the taste. About 4 or 5 years ago I developed a gastro problem and my waist got large. The side effect is that I just cannot drink like I did before. I quit drinking for about a year but then went back to it. Like I said, I like the taste. Last night I actually had 4 beers. It may be my last drinks this whole week, or I might have one or so and quit. Before I enjoyed being drunk but not today. In my lifetime I enjoyed being drunk until 3 AM much of the time. Today I only enjoy the taste and I have to be in control. Whatever my weird gastro condition is I might start to drink and then pour it out and eat. The drinking is just not important any longer. A man I've known for years recently heard my story and he denied that I'm an alcoholic. His reasoning is that I don't shake and wake up every morning "having to have it." Having drank heavily for well over 20 years my answer is that he knows nothing about alcoholics.

My all time most puzzling aspect of Christianity.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 26, 2019:

You are correct that none of the answers make any sense. Heaven and hell are the extreme expressions of right and wrong, reward and punishment. The concept puts mankind into a game of doing right for gain. In the Dake bible courses he claims those in heaven can see those in hell. I'm sure this would not make anyone too happy. Maybe it's a reminder not to rebel as Lucifer once did and was "cast from heaven." Imagine all this work to get there and god still doesn't trust you. At one point this idea was promoted so the "righteous" could gloat. They actually enjoy seeing others that did not make it and are in hell. It's worse than school children playing, but people worldwide in many faiths believe it. I think it is all nonsense. None of the answers make any sense.

Barr’s Declaration on Trump Puts Justice Dept. Back in Political Crucible

DenoPenno comments on Mar 26, 2019:

The strange thing now is that the GOP has decided to not reveal any of this report and they say it is over because Barr says it is over. Any normal person would realize that this only fuels the fire to know what is inside that report. If nothing damning in there this should be no problem. First, Trump himself was the diversion. Now the Mueller report becomes more of the diversion. The DNC stumbles and apologizes for everything as the party is near a split and they do not have it together enough to beat this Fascist regime at election time in 2020. Something is wrong. Is this all by design?

Antique Bible left intact by two church fires - UPI.com

DenoPenno comments on Mar 25, 2019:

The religious world is strange. Years ago my parents had an old 2 story house with 2 upstairs bedrooms atop a long winding set of stairs. For reasons I will never understand they had a wooden chair at the top of the stairs and an old bible sitting in that chair. Just enough of a landing there for that chair and a person going into either of the 2 rooms. The bible would fall out of the chair with a great big thud sound. It happened one day when I was home and we were all downstairs. When we went and checked after hearing that noise the bible was found in the floor. They always put it back in the chair. I've heard a lot of tales about how that bible would fall and made up ideas of why it would, but I always asked myself why it was put in the chair in the first place and then why they would put it back after it would fall. Reasons for this are stranger than the event itself. I never got an answer.

How do I tell my religious parents I'm an atheist?

DenoPenno comments on Mar 25, 2019:

My mother is dead but I told my step father that I no longer believe in gods a year or so before he went to the nursing home. A have an ex wife who said she knew I was going to turn atheist years ago when I did bible study, Dead Sea scrolls, etc. Is bible study forbidden? My daughters still say "they believe in their own way." This is exactly what is wrong with religion today. All religion is much like Burger King. If you can't have it your way just go to another one. "Yes, we believe that stuff the other church told you but when you die there's a 3 day waiting period before you can go to heaven."

It seems atheists DOMINATE this site, despite the fact it's an agnostic one.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 25, 2019:

Not as much difference as you might think but we always beat that same old dead horse again and again. Atheist or agnostic we would all believe in gods if there was sufficient evidence. So far evidence has never been found. Agnostic and atheist are word plays of a sort. I am an agnostic atheist.

So, we nonbelievers are now tied for top spot in reported religious affiliation.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 25, 2019:

Many people really are "nones." They have a fit if you say you are atheist but when you ask them what they believe you might find crazy hand gestures as they search for words and they say "well, I believe in something." This comes from not knowing and also not wanting to admit that they do not know. Where did we come from? We all had parents but other than that we simply do not know.

The best I can say about the Dems is that they are so confused and split that they apologize when they should not be doing so, and they appear not to know which way to go.

And we're off and running for Benghazi 2.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 25, 2019:

I've heard more than once that people blame Hillary so much for Benghazi because she told the military to "stand down." This tells me that many people do not understand just what her job was then. She had no such power to do this. It might very well be that a perceived threat of great nature was not expected, but this would be a miscalculation. Ideas of Hillary having our military to "stand down" is simply an outright lie. It's also the lie that is used yet today to blame Hillary for what happened in Benghazi.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 25, 2019:

Robert Mueller found no collusion with Russia on the elections but did find that Russia hacked the DNC. His report also did not exonerate Trump of any obstruction of justice. Mueller only reported facts and was leaving it up to other offices as to what would be done if anything. Keep in mind that Mueller is a Republican and this this report has nothing to do with self destruction of the Democratic Party. It will look terribly bad now if the report is not released in full, or it is redacted and then released. This would appear as if there is something to hide. The problem with current politics is that the public is led to believe every issue is bipartisan when it simply is not. I blame our current POTUS for all the lies and surrounding himself with crooks more than I blame a political party.

So my dad just passed away, I buried him this last Saturday.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 25, 2019:

i am sorry for your loss. Regardless of how you felt about your father it is a loss to not have him around any longer. I loved my mother, for example, but on her passing I knew full well that many issues I had with her and my step father would now never be resolved. All I can do is cling to the better memories. It's deep and personal and mom was not a bad person really. You say you hope there is nothing after we die. I don't share that hope but admit that we simply cannot know. If death is not the end exactly whatever happens later will NOT be like anything written down in any scripture or holy book. Most likely death will be very much like things were before you were born.

Usernames.... How did you choose your username for agnostic and what's the story behind it.... ?

DenoPenno comments on Mar 25, 2019:

Well, your dad was right! My current user name here has evolved out of African shing which is just a Kenyan "hip" way of using your real name and shortening it down some at the same time. It makes sense to them and I use the same name on FB. It hides you somewhat if you are into political activism but my user name makes Trump supporters think that maybe I'm not a citizen and not qualified to vote. Many of them have told me this. On another atheist site I am Michael Penn. This is a middle name and again a shortened last name. I am not trying to be Sean Penn's brother. Honest! :)

Trump Is Going To Repeat This Until November 2020.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 25, 2019:

I see a strange mix of things today about our political parties and it disturbs me greatly. I see a DNC that is confused and not sure which way it wants to go. Democratic Socialism is being embraced but yet ignored by many. Apology being made when there should be none, and the right will use this in comparing the old "socialism next to communism" ideas. Nobody is speaking up so this will most likely work for them. The DNC cannot even address it's division. They have no backbone. I see a strongly compromised GOP that has been infiltrated and taken over by the Koch brothers, Mercers, and others of that persuasion and it all has to do with money. Nobody in the current party gives a damn about you, your healthcare, land, water, or food. We are led to believe this is the way our Founding Fathers would have wanted it and the deluded go along with that idea. The GOP works against the people and to give wealth to the top 1 percent at any cost. The goal appears to be to make you think it should be this way and to make you like it. (I'm one who don't.) Libertarians and Independents can be a mix of the above or anything else they want to be. They might push for dog catchers to have a degree or for a man on Mars by 2025 but chances or being elected are slim to say the least. This is my take on how things are right now along with a reflection on our bleak future.

Recently in FB I was censored for putting a man in place squarely and verbally for coming onto my page to make derogatory comments because I told the truth about his buddy Trump.

Everything is turning into Reality TV or it's like my favorite superhero shows where almost everybody is now a superhero. The Flash, Supergirl, Black Lightning. All the people in these shows are super. Then I'm watching Project Bluebook which is all made up. I know because I read the books about it years ago. The show today is like right out of XFiles.

"God is in control" was said to me this week-end.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 19, 2019:

I agree with you. Your small rant is yet another one of the reasons that I could never be a believer again.

Netanyahu tells Arab citizens they’re not real Israelis

DenoPenno comments on Mar 19, 2019:

Somebody should tell Nuttiyahu that he's not a real primed minister. LOL

My mom is threatening not to come to my wedding because it's not a religious ceremony. sigh

DenoPenno comments on Mar 19, 2019:

Weddings were not always religious. The church did not take over weddings until the early middle ages. Look it up and show it to mom.

Yes, what could go wrong? We are fast becoming the nation of lies and broken promises. That's what happens when you put a man in the WH who is a lying conman and not fit to be POTUS.

Marco Rubio gets crucified by Twitter after boldly reciting cliché Bible verse [rt.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 19, 2019:

An imaginary German dam. Quoting verses from a book about an imaginary god. It's no wonder that Little Marco seems out of it these days. How in the hell did he ever get elected? America is using all it can about Venezuela to spread lies about Democratic Socialists in hopes of keeping Trump Fascists in power. The two types of "socialists" are definitely not the same and they know it. America also wanted Venezuelan oil and when that was lost we lied about conditions there and started raising oil prices here. That's how I see it.

Exclusive: 7 U.S. Military Members Identified As Part Of White Nationalist Group | HuffPost

DenoPenno comments on Mar 18, 2019:

Lots of military men are just like that recent shooter in Whitechurch. That doesn't mean that all of them are. If we continue to support white supremacist leaders we are leaning toward a white supremacist military. This is why Donnie should be called on his nonsense at every turn. Saying nothing about his white nationalism is the same as supporting it.

I'm new, so as yet, I don't know how to search the agnostic.

Thanks for posting about the troll Trump. I like Quora posts.

Here are the Democrats who have said they're running for president

DenoPenno comments on Mar 18, 2019:

Right now there are just tooooo many running.

Thanks, Terry. Very true words here.

Rep Steve King R-Iowa posts meme about new civil war. Why is he still there?

DenoPenno comments on Mar 18, 2019:

Some of these bastards are trying to be funny but deep down the meme shows exactly what they want. The current best bet is to vote them out. Don't ask about healthcare or you might get body slammed!

Good morning! A few days ago my Facebook reminded me of my clogged ear about a year ago.

One on my shoulder where I ran into a barbed wire fence. Don't run after dark unless you really have to.

Daily Blasphemy: Happy St.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 18, 2019:

I saw a cartoon once where St. Pat drove all the snakes out of Ireland. He stopped the car at one point and looked into the back seat area where the snakes where. He demanded that they stop all the hissing. I like real Irish Guinness but got through yesterday without any of them. :)

We're Facing a Global Movement of White Hate

DenoPenno comments on Mar 18, 2019:

Being white is no more a source of anything than being cold or hungry or anything else. They are ignorant! If I am born in America I am very likely to be a Christian. If I'm born in Iran then maybe not so much. Born in Africa my skin color is most likely to be black. Other areas maybe not. We are all like crayons in a box. **Why is white skin now promoting such hate again? Skin color and religion are pretty much out of our reach for personal choice. **Being white is not a source of pride. It is simply the way things turned out. We can all thank that POS in the White House for the global movement of white hate that is reviving itself today. By not condemning it he encourages it. I think of a monster when shootings like this occur. Then immediately I think of the monster in the White House.

Well . No words ? [youtu.be]

This is funny but covers the way they think pretty much. I thought for sure that he was going to shoot himself or shoot her before it was over.

If we are talking brAvery the believer is not so brave.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 17, 2019:

I'm a member of Quora and I think John Gallagher did a wonderful write up here. AOC is new to politics and is like a breath of fresh air. She is well educated. I also listen to conservative talk radio and a recent take they had on her was that she knows nothing at all and went to a meeting thinking she was going to get an acting job. The GOP bends over backwards to make her look dumb but I think it backfires on them.

Wedding vows. Are atheists vows stronger than religious vows?

DenoPenno comments on Mar 17, 2019:

The difference between wedding vows of theists and atheists in my opinion is that one of them brings an invisible friend into the picture. Otherwise it's all about the same. Currently single here and in some way or another all my wives were believers. You know how that goes. People say "I believe in my own way." LOL

This is how the Democratic Party will become the party of the progressives.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 17, 2019:

He is correct. Right now the DNC is so divided that it isn't going in the right direction. They have even said they will avoid Fox News totally. No, go on Fox News and tell them all about how they are "fake news." That's the way to do it.
