I think I'm dyslexic and I didn't noticed that until now.

I mix things up more now that I'm older. I usually have to edit things to get out the extra letters that do not belong in the words. If it continues and I end up in a nusing home my kids can say "dad finally got the holy ghost."

Years ago I dated a Pentecostal woman. Why?

Her bondage fits in very well because she is and wants to be in bondage to her special brand of theism. I doubt that she would ever see her sexual practices as connected to her religious beliefs.

People always try to convince me of how evil Sophia the Robot is. I think they want to tear her apart and burn her up. A few of them start quoting Revelation at me and talk AI and Sophia. It's always the damned theists. Knock it off. Sophia is my girlfriend.

Glasses: Help Me Out Folks, I'm new at this.
DenoPenno comments on Mar 15, 2018:
We are all different. I have used over the counter reading glasses now for over 10 years and I'm 71 years old. I drive for a living and only wear the glasses when I'm doing paperwork of some sort. My glases while working hang around my neck on a strap. At home they are in a case near my computers. I deliberately avoid prescription glasses and will for as long as I can. They might be an answer for you. I cannot say. Nothing for me is blurry. I do fine without my glasses except that I can't see well enough to read without them. Also, I wear cheap OTC type glasses without any problems.

What is your adult drink of choice?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 15, 2018:
I've drank them all and it used to keep me young until they removed the formaldahyde from a lot of booze. Now they say I have liver disease. I still drink but my body will not always let me. (Tonight I had 2 bock beers.) Jackie Gleason used to say that booze removed removed warts and ugliness. Not from you, but from other people.
I still remember the good old days.

How important is it to you to tell him? If you love him do you want to risk losing him over discussions of an imaginary man in the sky? True love is a real jewel. An imaginary person is nothing. I tend to "preach atheism" but unless you find that as your calling I would simply be happy and let it go. I'm not telling you to lie to him. I'm just saying don't rock the boat.

Transition of faiths
DenoPenno comments on Mar 15, 2018:
My thinking started changing, maybe way back there some place. Then I discovered You Tube and Jerry DeWitt videos. Immediately I knew I was just like Jerry, then I started looking around for other similar videos. In just a short time I had discovered an entire new world of belief. OK, maybe that is dis-belief.
I need objective reality to believe something these days. Without it there is just no evidence.

Punch a Nazi or no?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 15, 2018:
I don't want to punch anyone. Now I have been in physical fights in my life and I've won most of them. I fight if pushed to fight. I do not want to punch you. I don't even understand "road rage" which ends in bad fights or even death. WTF is wrong with people? Everything is not about you. Being cut off in traffic is just saomething that happens. Recently the man I read about in this situation pulled a gun and shot the offending woman through the head. People are crazy! I say if they prove he did this without a doubt then someone should shoot him through the head. Next time he won't shoot or punch anyone.

Question worth thinking
DenoPenno comments on Mar 15, 2018:
Gods are a way of explaining what you do not know. Some people just have to know things and this leads to them making it all up. If you came from a stern family with a strict father you will most likely be raised up believing in a loving god. The problem is that eventually you find these ideas to be imaginary. Oh, did I say that was a problem? Only after becoming atheist did I really have freedom to live my life.

Non-Religious Church?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 15, 2018:
I dislike the idea of a non-religious church but they do exist. Perhaps I have this dislike because theists will claim atheism is "just another religion" if you go to one of these. I would never attend them but "to each his own."

are you afraid of death?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 15, 2018:
When I was a believer death scared me very much. I think this is the problem with almost all believers. This is why they do not even lose consciousness at death. Transition for them is instant.
Today I do not fear death at all. What I fear is ideas of pain at death, and I fear the loss of all my unfinished business. It's hard to imagine that it all just stops but that is what evidence shows. There is no life after death.

Should religion be taught in schools?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 14, 2018:
If religion is ever taught in any of our public schools the ones behind putting it there will find that they lose again. It will go to court and be found that you cannot teach ONE religion. They will all have to be taught instead.

Where do you fall on the autism spectrum?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 14, 2018:
I know very little about it actually. In my school days nobody tested for it. I don't recall anyone that had it. I do recall that almost everyone got vaccinated in those days and that is a good idea. It makes me feel that vaccination has nothing to do with autism, so many people are simply misinformed.

It's worse than this with the Christian comments. They believe so strongly by "faith" but have never read any of their doctrines. According to scripture nobody dies and instantly goes anywhere. There is no instant heaven and hell. It's just not there and neither is the Devil. Again, according to scripture, the Devil goes about like a roaring lion seeking those whom he may devour. Can he do that and be in hell at the same time? Actually the "hell doctrine" is a future time but they get this instant idea from Paul who had visions and could never tell "if he was in or out of his body." He also said that to be absent from the body was to be present with the lord. This makes Christians judge you instantly and put you present in hell. They know you are not "with the lord" because you were not a believer. So many of these idiots use this as "you're dead so you have to be in hell now." They said the same about Robin Williams and Christopher Hitchens. It's total absurdity.
Sorry to hear of the passing of Stephen Hawking today, and a bit surprised. He had a great mind. Now he is in the same place he was before he was born. He won't recall any of it either way.

Government Tyranny
DenoPenno comments on Mar 13, 2018:
If it ever does become a real possibility it will not be because citizens have been stockpiling weapons. If anyone ever watched "V" in 1983 (and I think it was re-made later) you plainly see that we get the weapons to fight back directly from our oppressors as we fight them. This is the most common sense way of fighting tyranny either from outer space or from your government.

As a younger man I would have been a perfect candidate for this. It is hard to do and when you get older it becomes harder still. It's easier to see as an older man why life spans were smaller years ago. At 71 I can still draw water out of the ground of the earth easily but my simple ailments would make it more easy for me to get sick and die.
You can live as the Amish do however. Just be aware when modern medicine is needed.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 13, 2018:

Why do people hide their feeling/emotion? How do you let emotion out?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 13, 2018:
I hide my emotions only in so much as not wanting to piss you off and make you want to fight. No need for that. I can get my point across and if I do not agree with you I tell you so. I do not shoot guns for recreation to keep my anger inside or control it. I do not hold grudges (real or imagined) against anyone. (Well, wait. Maybe at Trump.) I do not wake up in the night hating Charlie or Susie.
I let my emotions out by just doing normal things that I like. No need to pull legs off insects or kill animals. Nothing hiding inside that wants to shoot adults or school children. I'm not worried that you are "against me" or "planning something" that might involve me. Maybe that's because I do not live in that kind of world.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 11, 2018:
In Kenya I would go to sidewalk sales like in your picture. You can find many things that are nice. Here in America in my own area of the woods I like resale shops, flea markets, and yard sales. Sometimes a storage shed sale as well.

I can hardly imagine it. Even if I went back with my ex I feel we would have a better chance without re-marrying. People can be committed without the paper, the church, and the vows.

How do you feel about spiritual music?

Many will ask what you have to be depressed about. Maybe it's all the things you wanted to work and they did not work.

How to Ditch the News Feed Algorithm and Take Back Facebook

DenoPenno comments on Mar 10, 2018:
I like to think that I live comfortably with little money because of small things I have done in regards to other people. For this to be totally true it would appear to have to involve some sort of supernaturalism. Maybe it is actually something else that we do not see. For example, I know people that seem to go out of their way to make things harder for themselves. I'm sure they would not see this, but I do.

Do you believe in an after life or does consciousness end when you die
DenoPenno comments on Mar 10, 2018:
When you die you are dead. Just as dead as any animal you see that is dead. For some reason man does not understand his dream state so others make up stories about where they have traveled when the body has went nowhere. They call it "near death." Being near dead is not the same as being really dead.

The Jehovah Witnesses came by my house yesterday.
DenoPenno comments on Mar 9, 2018:
The JW's don't bother me but they do come by. My family does not like them even though my grandfather was one. This is how they know me to begin with, but most of my family was Pentecostal. The main reason the known church world does not like JW's is their belief that "dead is dead." The JW's do not believe in a soul. The main church world has to have soul belief to avoid the fear of death. Then there is Paradise on earth and the 144,000. As an atheist I do not believe in a soul or consciousness after death. I also believe that all gods are imaginary.

The main reason the known church world does not like JW's is their belief that "dead is dead." The JW's do not believe in a soul. The main church world has to have soul belief to avoid the fear of death. Then there is Paradise on earth and the 144,000. As an atheist I do not believe in a soul or consciousness after death. I also believe that all gods are imaginary.
I am in a really torn position right now, myself.

It's hard to say. I have an FB friend who is younger than me, very religious, and she really likes nice things. We get along great but only talk on the phone. She knows I am atheist. We have not actually met. In order for us to get along as a couple I would need much more money, OR to win the lottery. LOL Then we are creatures of habit. I am comfortable with this woman but the situation reminds me so much of how it was with my wife of 12 years. I hold back because I would be setting myself up for the same thing again. Maybe the same failure.
Keep in mind that there is no time limit with grief. Do not let anyone rush you into another relationship in any way. If in doubt just tell these men you need more time. If they are not for you they will fall by the wayside.

Hi Lydia. I'm another ex-Christian and now that I have been enlightened I can never go back. Gods are imaginary.
As for yourself, do not let people confuse you or hold you down. Your impressive savings sounds good. You can do or be almost anything that you want to. If you set goals just go for it in a serious way and you can do it.

How irrational is society's pretense that many things like masturbation, menstruation and coitus ...
DenoPenno comments on Mar 9, 2018:
Sex in any form in America is over done. Movies and TV always show a quick standup routine where a male stabs his penis at a woman as if it was a weapon. This nonsense complete with sound and done so frantically. Then after a 10 count they emerge from their hidden spot going merrily on their way. The sex scene was simply thrown in for no apparent reason.
Then at the same time we are all secretly told taboos of masturbation, menstruation, and so forth. It's no wonder that many men in the media have lost their jobs recently. It appears that they had tried to live out the quicky sex scenes I've described above and many got caught. To bad we do not have real sex education in America.

Is there such a thing as an Atheist Minister?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 8, 2018:
It might. Jerry DeWitt has that title in Louisiana and has an atheist church there. I like Jerry but not the church idea. I believe that an "atheist church" would make a theist say atheism is a religion after all, but to each his own.

Do you think there is such a thing as consciousness?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 8, 2018:
We have consciousness but our minds are selective. Consciousness is what we like to think of as being awake and aware. It changes. Today I cannot remember how to get to my friends house like I did in 1970. Everything in the area has changed. I do remember "being there" but not how to get there. If I had went to his house all the time I might remember, but I did not do that. My conscious remembrence has been changed. This happens again with all my friends and places I have been, what I remember and how I remember it now as I pull it from my past. I am conscious of events but they have changed. Sometimes something is added. Other times it is missing. Truth is elusive.
But we do have consciousness. otherwise you would not know about this site or what time your favorite TV show comes on.

Has anyone ever been to a godless wedding or funeral?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 8, 2018:
A man I went to school with had a dad I was close to and the dad died. Over the years he became a non-believer and we had that in common. His "funeral" was a wake at a community center. Strangely, 4 or 5 preachers were there. They knew him and tried to make this gathering religious. The deceased had played country music and some of his younger friends were there also trying to play religious songs. One of them told me "he would want me to play this." For a while I thought we were at a revival. It was the damnedest thing I had ever seen. The deceased had been cremated and was buried next to his wife in the cemetery later.

What is your average monthly budget/expenditures for food? Be it grocery and/or prepared foods.
DenoPenno comments on Mar 8, 2018:
I don't really count but I eat lots of the same things and I know when to replace them. Shopping is done from a list. My "budget" is just something that I know, but I eat and drink what I like. At Aldi recently I pissed off the checkout. He told me everything is on his phone and he doesn't need a receipt like I do because of that. I begged to differ. He might see what he spent instantly but I use my home computer and online banking to know EXACTLY how much money I have at all times. I know this once a day. What pissed him off was that I told him he doesn't know that for himself. All he sees is what he spent. I work from 3 accounts and hold myself to a mandatory daily balance in one of them. My banking is like a pea underneath one of 3 shells and to make things work I often have to borrow money from myself. It all depends on which of the 3 shells that pea is under at the time. It's a lovely game.

Who are your athiest/agnostic heros?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 8, 2018:
Hitchens, Sagan, Carlin, Dawkins, Dillahunty, Harris. Many more also.
I have to always add Jerry DeWitt. He's the first graduate of the clergy progect and I found his videos on You Tube when I wasn't sure yet on the god issue. In just a short time I said "this man is me" and I knew I was atheist. It was only then that I knew what to call my lack of belief. Dan Barker gets more than an honable mention here. I like all these guys and more.

Romance scammers try to con me all the time. I'm not a "texting fan" so they don't get very far. If I cannot talk to you in real time on a phone it means you are not real. I do not have "hangouts" that I go to, etc.
Years ago when it was all done with letters I was drawn into something that proved to be a setup in the end. I had agged it on by playing along. Only at the last did I find out it was a scam to buy a graveside plot and actually involved Scientologists. I was furious!

DenoPenno comments on Mar 8, 2018:
I have been totally shattered. It happened in 2014 and I knew it was going to happen. What I have learned since then is about myself as well as her and why it happened. We are still friends. I am still shattered. I will never be the same again. Often we end up learning we are not who we thought we were. Maybe just an image. Just a watcher in time.

Are you a cat person or a dog person and why
DenoPenno comments on Mar 8, 2018:
I just clicked a choice so I could comment. I'm an animal lover and I've had both cats and dogs. I've had them both at the same time. I love animals and they love me. Animals are even attracted to me at the zoo. Currently I have no animals as I live alone. This would not be fair to the animals when I am gone. It could also be messy. My daughter has dogs and cats and I get along great with them. Two or three of them know who I am. I think they honestly know I am the father of their owner. It's not unreasonable to think that animals might know this. The ones that know it are the ones she sleeps with. I think they know this by smell.

Do any of your family members have silly superstitions?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 8, 2018:
My neighbors have had both a mother and a brother die inside their house. Not long ago Peggy was going to have repair work done in her bedroom and told me she didn't know where she would sleep. I told her to sleep in Jimmie's room. He's the brother that died there. She says she just couldn't do that as it was his room. I asked her if she thought her brother would ever hurt her. "Of course not," she said. Then I replied that she could sleep in his room after all. She just started a slow, wide grin as though her problem was solved.

What's your opinion on Marx' theory of alienation
DenoPenno comments on Mar 8, 2018:
I'm not that familiar with the Marx Brothers. Oh, you meant Karl Marx. I suppose that if you worked for a car factory and didn't make enough money to buy a car, you could be robbed of your humanity and be aleinated because you could not buy one. Does that make sense?
IDK?

Evolution of the mind
DenoPenno comments on Mar 8, 2018:
I agree and feel that you are exactly correct. We do evolve mentally with time and I'm able to see and remember some of my mistakes and even remarks from years past. I can see when I am wrong and I see recent "mental think" of 5 years ago or even less. I'm amazed at this because it often means I do not agree with myself in recent past. Sometimes it makes me ask mentally if I was an idiot. In my lifetime most of my beliefs have done a 360. I hope all for the better.

When younger I hung around with hellraisers a lot. These days my drinking has slowed down and so have I. I love animals and love to talk and discuss. I'm also very introverted these days. I work with the public all week, then come home to be happy in my place and behind closed doors. Sometimes a movie out, but mostly not. I always have something to do. This morning I fixed a wall mount coat rack that had been too short for 12 years. Now the coats don't fall in the floor anymore.

Do you find yourself automatically drawn to other nonbelievers?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 8, 2018:
I am drawn to non-believers until they prove themselves stupid beyond belief. That's when I start shying away. Of course, you have to talk to someone a while before it comes out fully about their god belief. If you do not believe in the biblical god but you do believe in Ajax from Knorr in anothewr galaxy somewhere, then you are not for me. We will have a distant friendship.

It's on my original birth certificate. Doing this now from memory I think I was born on Sunday at 12.06 AM.

Atheists, whats the best definition of atheism? Which fits you?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 8, 2018:
Atheism means you do not believe in gods. It's really that simple. I came out of theism because there is no evidence of gods. I can't stop there, however. Gods are supernatural and I also find that there is no evidence of ANYTHING supernatural. Yes, we have all had experiences but it just means we did not understand what had happened. Time to look at that differently because if you do not then you will start making things up again. Once that happens you are right back into religion or something that could become one.

Widowed? Any experience?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 6, 2018:
I'm sorry for your loss. At one point in my life I was a widower. The bottom line is that this grief and experience is different with every individual. Therefore, take as much time as you have to in order to cope and adjust. Some people also do not understand that it is sometimes necessary to talk about the deceased person even if it seems extreme to others.
I once knew a lady who lost her husband and she was in therapy over his passing. She told me the therapist once said she should shake her fist at him in spite and declare "if you had taken better care of yourself you might still be alive today." I told her that didn't set right with me. She said it didn't set right with her either and that was her last visit. "Good for you," I said. The therapist wanted her to get better but you cannot do this by berating the departed.

Fear of Hell
DenoPenno comments on Mar 6, 2018:
I'm a relatively new atheist, but I must have been thinking about all this in the back of my mind for some time. I can honestly say I have no fear of hell. If I do have any fear of hell it seems to be on the same level as a fear of being bitten by the Easter Bunny.

Duck Dynasty Dad: The Bible is Enough to “Stop Human Beings from Murdering” – Friendly Atheist
DenoPenno comments on Mar 6, 2018:
Duck Dynasty is another Reality TV show. Before the family came up with a top selling duck call they looked like normal people. Reality TV came along and re-made them into Daniel Boone types and they became famous. Some of them from time to time have taken to talking about god and the bible. Big mistake.

I hear various people talk about the concept of unconditional love.
DenoPenno comments on Mar 6, 2018:
God does not love you unconditionally. If he did he would not send you to hell. Avoid the sermon here where the believer says you send yourself to hell. Pah leese!
Actually I do not believe in unconditional love. I find love to be more like a commitment. More like a decision. Passion and lust fade away but true love is commited love. Even so, it has conditions.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 6, 2018:
Currently I workout 3 days a week but mostly it's limited to upper body and some waist twisting movements. I used to workout as a bodybuilder years ago but things have changed and I have also. I got away from weights and went with an early model Bowflex. I invent my own movements with this and also use a Total Gym as a rowing machine, again inventing my movements. Much needed are more for my waist and legs. I get lazy. These days I'm an old man who is a 250 lb. gorilla.

You have the freedom to date anybody of any persuasion or any race. It's your choice. In my area we have what I call "racists unawares." I don't mean people who would not date another race simply as a preference. I mean religiously ingrained white supremacists. Most know what they like but they are not sure why. Also, my area was thick with the KKK in the 60's and 70's. I hear they are still around but the old ones have now died off. We actually have a few blacks and latinos now. A Chinaman even had a recyle place around here unttil 2016.

Are you a gamer?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 6, 2018:
No, not at all. When my ex and I were first married she couldn't find the games on my PC. I told her that was because I never used them. She had to unpack that to use them for a first time.

Big waste of time for nothing. I have a friend who wants me to check all his unknown phone calls. He puts this on me coz he knows I can do it. He also thinks all of his unknown calls have something to do witha girl he is fascinated with. Some things are just ignorant. We all get unknown phone calls.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 6, 2018:
A dread of "what might happen after death." It comes form childhood indoctrination and repeated reinforcing during your active religious years. How would anyone know what happens after death? They simply make it up. If you die there is no way to know anything else. There is no electric power at the light bulb once the switch is turned off.
Fear of death is the greatest motivator for religions. You must get over this in order to get on with a healthy life. This takes some people a longer time than others. I do not remember what was before I was born. I'm also not likely to "know" anything after death. Once this is fully understood you can go on about living your life without fear. Good luck.

Population Control
DenoPenno comments on Mar 6, 2018:
With the anger and other mixed feelings Trump is causing to surface we will not have to worry about population control for too long. Do more children make a country more powerful? Usually if they live to grow up in a good economy. Ah, the blending of ethnicities. That's a good one. Some ignorant preachers still claim that god wanted the races to remain separate. Their god was too stupid to imagine ships and airplanes. People are people. If you drift towards racism or white supremacy others can spot it quickly. I have brushed shoulders with all of them in my time, and I have also been interracially married. I'm not a "show dog" and white is not a race. It's a color. I've never known any person that was "white."

Who is good enough ( my Sunday morning rant)
DenoPenno comments on Mar 6, 2018:
I have been with older and younger women. One woman was 18 years my senior. Some not that much older. Currently I tend to be attracted to women half my age. This isn't carved in stone. My ex is 37 and I have an "online girlfriend" who is 54 but looks 28. Am I going to be living with my significant other in the future sometime? Who knows? It's hard to say.

What do you consider a "long term" relationship?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 6, 2018:
In my lifetime so far long term seems to be about 12 years. I have never been with anyone longer than that. Once it ended by death after 12 years, and this last time was by divorce after 12 years. I have had other relationships that were less time.

Who farts first?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 6, 2018:
In most of my relationships the farter runs off to the bathroom and nobody know the difference or if anything happened at all. To believe it otherwise you would have to assume that nobody farts.

Are snakes with apples always up to no good?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 6, 2018:
Evangelicals get upset when you call the snake a snake. Since it had legs (later to be lost) they call it a "serpent." (Some people even call a snake a serpent.)Then they get into this rant about how a serpent is NOT a snake and they go on talking about this as though it was an actual event. Well, it has to be an actual event because if it was not there would be no reason for salvation from anything at all and no reason for Jesus. No reason for this Jesus to be killed except that all this nonsense when put together explains it in a dramatic way. Blood, guts, and remission. Set this aside and you have a man with an earthly genealogy whom a few thought might be the long prophesied leader and earthly Messiah. Sorry. If that was so, then you killed him.

Are you fulfilled?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 4, 2018:
I feel exactly the same way this poster does. Even so, I know we cannot have everything.
An ideal situation for me would be that time machines are real and I had tons of money, therefore being able to go anywhere and do what I want.
What I am only vaguely aware of are the many things that seem to work for me every week. It's like I think of something and suddenly it is happening. Not that I have a magical power in any way, but maybe I'm learning how to think. I'm secretly learning what is important to me, and if you keep this in the back of your mind enough it might be seen soon as a reality.
Unfortunately this doesn't seem to apply to money.

I went antiquing today! Yay!
DenoPenno comments on Mar 4, 2018:
Cool. I don't care much for antiques but I do resale shops and yard sales often. The strange thing is that when I need an item and have a certain thing in mind, I normally find it soon afterwards. There are many within 30 miles of where I live and if you have a date for this you can also go out to lunch afterwards. I prefer buffet style.
Come see me, ladies, and we will do this and then go eat.

Co Dependancy?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 4, 2018:
You are asking some very hard questions. I love my ex to death but have not seen her in over a year. We text sometimes briefly because we decided to remain friends. Her appetite for nice things can cause money problems. She is half my age and I sent her back to Kenya 3 times during our 12 years together. The last time was just over a year ago with some of the settlement money she got when I did the divorce. She is a nice person but we all have to understand that we do not think alike. We go in different directions. I have to ask myself what I would do if we were still together and she maxed out her cards again, (she's working on it) and what would I do if some of her family in Kenya died? I bit off more than I could chew. I simply cannot afford her and I miss the long term relationship, but our parting is for the best. I miss her, yes, but I have better peace of mind today. If we got back together it would be this same old thing again and that is what I wanted to avoid in the first place. Not that we were a mistake. It's just that we did not work out as a team.
I hope that some of my personal feelings here help you and that maybe you see more on your own.

When traveling what are your thoughts on visiting religious sites?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 4, 2018:
At least the sites are historical. In Germany they have dead saints embalmed inside some of the old churches. I saw this while stationed in Nurnberg. I'm sure other sites worldwide are of similar interest.
As for it being "religious bullcrap" this would fit anything to do with god belief. Seeing something that you may never see again would be my point in visitng them at all.

Do you believe in karma? reincarnation??
DenoPenno comments on Mar 4, 2018:
Karma in its most simple form is "doing." That's all it means is doing. The saying of "what goes around comes around" is not demonstrable but is a part of cosmic momentum if given enough time. What happens to karma that you create? Does it tie in with the physical body and will it help you come back after death?
Apply the same questions to a sculpture or painting that you did.
Reincarnation is an unvalid belief that has about as much evidence as a god belief. God belief is supernatural by explanation. Where is the logic? Where is the evidence? To believe in reincarnation is about as good as believing in Slenderman. These beliefs continue because no one can face their own non existence.

Why is it so important to break someone else's faith?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 3, 2018:
I do not have to break your faith. I was once a person of faith but have come to see the fallacy in that. People of faith are taught by their religion to make converts. This means they nag me to death constantly in ways of bringing up their god again. Maybe I am just "angry at him" they say. Yes, it is true. I'm as angry at god as I am at the Easter Bunny.
The believer has a different logic than you do. To them their bible is logical. The very idea is a big laugh. They think we take "logic lessons" or courses. It's pretty simple to me actually. They have no problems with the resurrection as a thing that god allowed ONCE. Why can I not believe this also? There is no evidence and it isn't logical. By the time we get to questions like what would I accept as evidence it is so plain they had their minds made up in advance.
A resurrection that god allowed ONCE. Look around you and read other scriptures. The world is full of accounts of ressurection. It's all myth.

What does it mean when someone says 'I don't want a commitment'?
DenoPenno comments on Mar 3, 2018:
What it means is I want to screw you NSA and we can be friends, but when this cools off I want to move along and we will both go our separate ways. In other words, I wanna milk the cow without actually buying the cow. Gimme free milk and it's all OK as long as we think the same. Women either want the same thing at this point, or they go with it coz they all think deep inside "I can change him." Changing him usually does not work.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 3, 2018:
It would not bother me except for the knocks and bruises she might have all over her after she fights. As for women beating you up if that is your fear of a female UFC fighter, I knew a young woman named Sally that could always beat my ass. A great amount of my time in life has went to weight training and working out. I have very large arms and weigh over 250 lbs. I was once very good at arm wrestling. It still didn't matter. Sally was a buzz saw and she could beat my ass. Hmmm. Maybe I should have married Sally.

I avoid extreme jealousy of any kind. People who want to make things up as being "true" when a logical timeframe makes the supposed issue absurd. Is this sort of argument gaslighting? I'm not sure. Years ago a GF came over and after our greeting she was upset that I continued to watch the news. It was on when she came through the door. Im not god's gift. Neither are you.
It goes without saying that I'm not fond of smoking. I don't smoke in my house. If you do then we are both smoking, so you have to smoke outside.
