Questions to religious people

DenoPenno comments on Apr 8, 2021:

I can't ask them 5 questions. My big things are that the bible as we know it came into existence around 336 AD. What does that do to your faith when it is 300 years after the time of Jesus whom, by the way, was not a Christian. My second item in religion is that we do not know a birth and death for this man Jesus. We celebrate his resurrection from death on Easter every year, and just like Passover, Easter has a changing date. Did Jesus arise again on March 30th or on April 19th? How many times did he die and come back? Lastly, I find it absurd that Saul of Tarsus (Paul) is credited with writing most of the NT when the man did not even know Jesus and also never met him. Just reading the books of the NT show that people also had a lot of problems with Paul in his own time as well. That also includes Jesus followers.

DenoPenno comments on Apr 7, 2021:

Trump can't admit guilt to anything. After all, he is making money and inventing the senario that will continue to make him money. QAnon is getting into this more and more now and it seems to be working. You can get hate flags, hats, or T-shirts and those who make them for you are making money. My guess on why this is happening is the gullibility of the public along with the fact that the Duethche Bank loan (in the millions) is going to have to start being paid back in less than 2 years now. Trump has to do something to produce that money. This is what he is doing. It has nothing to do with politics in any legit way. It is all a distortion that is about making that money.

DenoPenno comments on Apr 6, 2021:

All of us have a different reality. It's a fact. Even if we believe the same things we still have a different reality. Nobody shares the same reality. Same beliefs, yes, reality, no. Objective reality is 2X2 = 4 but even for those of us who live in that world exclusively our realities might become somewhat subjective. Am I hung up on material things? Yes. The things I'm hung up on are usually not new, but they might be new to me. My car, house, furniture, etc. can all be used or older. I don't care what you have. I'm not trying to impress you or keep up with you.

I'm fascinated by the question: Is reincarnation possible?

DenoPenno comments on Apr 4, 2021:

IMO regression involves hypnosis and a person who is hypnotized wants to please the hypnotist. If this is so, a game is started in which suggestion sets up questions and answers. Results will be obtained but it does not mean the results are a fact in any way. I have experimented in the past with such things and found it fascinating. I cannot say I have any feelings of living a past life but I do have constant and strong feelings of deja vu. This happens with both people and movies. My standard joke about it is that I have that feeling when the phone rings.

You might say the virus "enslaved the world" and this is all the nonsense coming out if it. People that believe the bible says they do not have to wear a mask, and the Constitution says the same will really dig this idea. Current level propaganda.

Pagan Employee Sues Panera Bread Citing Religious Discrimination by Her Managers | Hemant Mehta | ...

Panera Bread has a problem. At least in that location and maybe in others also. An employer should never ask you about your faith, your religion. If that ever comes up just tell them it is not a proper subject for the workplace. In my own situation I work for a highly religious corporation. Not many of them really are, but they think they are, and the founder was extremely religious. If faith comes up I tell them that in earlier life I studied to be a Pentecostal minister. Today I'm not so religious. If anyone told me I was "going to hell" I would ask them to take those ideas to Sunday School. The store boss would then stop that conversation and tell us all to get back to work. Been there, done that, and you have to work around the hypocritical.
