Church members had near heart attacks telling everyone how bad this movie was and to stay away from it. In the end they most likely added to the success of the film.

Creationist Says God Gave Us Nasal Bones to Hold Up Glasses

DenoPenno comments on Nov 18, 2020:

Make you a bet this man has glasses. I'm reminded of the old "Little Johnny" joke where him and his family went to see a new mom who had a child born without ears. The family was there to welcome the child and offer support. Johnny was warned not to say anything because they knew how he was. Finally little Johnny has a moment to talk with the new mom and says "I bet you hope the baby never needs glasses." Old joke way before the popularity of contacts and also not very appropriate today. :)

Your eating habits are interesting and I understand them. Four or five small meals daily are a great way to burn calories and keep energy up. I did that when I was bodybuilding and got the idea from Jack LaLanne circuit training. Unfortunate for me these days that I'm not following this and also cannot tell when I am full. It means I constantly over eat.

How did you change a bad habit?

DenoPenno comments on Nov 16, 2020:

I don't understand the wording in this piece at all but I will reply according to the title "How Did You Change a Bad Habit." As a young teen my cousins and I experimented with smoking. Not unusual. Later in the Army, others there showed me how a cigarette and a beer went together. I then started smoking only when I drank once a week. Getting back into religious roots later, I decided to stop smoking 2 or maybe 3 times "for god." That did not work. You have to stop a bad habit for yourself. Then I learned that if you stop smoking a few days and start again you get higher than a kite for 10 minutes. Oh, boy. Next, I got the flu and could not smoke. Once recovered I started smoking again. About 20 years ago I got the flu a second time and could not smoke. This time around I was smart enough not to pick the cigarettes back up. That's my flawed story of changing a bad habit (actually dropping the habit) through my whole life with it as a thing that controlled me off and on. I do not want cigarettes today and I do not miss them.

I started this thread with crazy tongue in cheek wording in hopes it might draw comments. Looks like not so much. However, I was in a grocery store this afternoon and the checkout and I are discussing COVID. She is aware of the new cases in our area and even says her grandparents have it now. I mentioned the hospital in Texas that has an outside tent now for coronavirus victims because the hospital is full. Then a man who was listening spoke up and got into the conversation. The first thing he told me was that the Democrats are doing it. I was astounded and he was serious. I asked him how they are doing this? It's worldwide and you want me to believe out of two major political parties in America one is controlling this. Maybe with 5G cell phones. Explain it please. The Democrats are hating on Trump so much that a button is pushed and another 20, 000 people die but it is worth it if we just get rid of Trump. The man's face turned red and he quickly went out the door to his car. Folks, that is a true story and I honestly believe there are many who think like this man. This is why you hear stories of the virus going away once the election is over, etc. I then apologized to the checkout and I left also.

6 Stops on the Hunt for the Holy Grail - Atlas Obscura

DenoPenno comments on Nov 15, 2020:

Of course it is a myth. Most things people search for in Christianity became "real" only after 300 CE. If Jesus was historical at all there is no reason to believe that in his own timeline he drank from a special cup (holy grail) or that any person of that time would have preserved such a cup after he was crucified. In other words, the Jesus hype of today was not the thing of 33 CE. It had to of came later. Funny how others are writing books today of finding the "holy grail" whether it was cup, saucer, chalice, or what ever. In 2014 a book was written saying the grail is in a church in Spain.

DenoPenno comments on Nov 14, 2020:

I find that today everyone is trying to sell you something. Online or on your phone there is so much falsehood. Everyone is paid by a click, a view, or a like and what you are looking at is not necessarily what you think it is. After a certain number of "likes" it can be sold and it is the selling and love of money that it is all about. One example on your phone is that you get a call saying your shipment went to another state. You had no shipment but this is a come on for you to except something or maybe just to get your information. The greatest distraction in America at this moment is those who rally and protest all for Trump on "Stop The Steal." The protesters are sincere but confused and the real steal is the donations that are needed to spread the word and keep this going. If you think this appears to be some big reversal of the blue win recently you are wrong. What it really is is Don the Con holding out til the last minute trying to get some money to pay back election debt before he is ejected from the White House. We are indeed inundated with belief over fact and almost all of it for money. This gross misdirection and greed might take down our society and even end our existence if we cannot come to our senses and figure it out. The world is not what you think. I highly recommend the documentary "The Social Dilemma" as a good start in trying to figure things out. There are mental dots to connect but no gods -- well, maybe Mammon.

I'm not anti-gun but some of those who have guns are nuts. As far as taking away guns, I don't see how that would ever be possible. Regulation should be done to help get gun problems under control. We have giant problems when teens run off to other states and kill people simply for protesting and we learn that the mom drove them half way there.

How much do you expect "payback" to influence Democrat policy?

DenoPenno comments on Nov 14, 2020:

The biggest payback that I expect is for Biden to un-do all the Executive Orders signed by Trump that took away everything that Obama did. Trump was doing what others like Kock, Mercer, DeVos, Prince, etc wanted him to do and also quietly doing away with the EPA and other protection organizations that we need. This shows that it's about making of money with no concern for people and their healthcare. I look for, and expect, things like this to be un-done for sure.

I'm not sure that I celebrate Christmas. A better word for me is participate . As a single man today I do not participate in Christmas but I would do so if I had a wife, or had a wife and children. My reasoning is that if it is not important to me it might be important to them. Who am I to tell you what to do about holidays. Keep in mind however that "holiday" comes from the term "holy day." A big celebration because of a holy day. I would go out of my way to inform anyone that Christmas has nothing to do with Christ or a mass and it certainly was not Jesus' birthday. Many argue that I should have a tree and decorations anyway but my argument in return is that I see all the other house decorations and lights just by going outside my door. I might add that i do not give gifts and have asked family and friends to treat me the same, however if one of my daughters is free to fix a big meal for all of us I do attend the dinner to be with family.

My friend tells me now of his neighbor who objects to Kamala Harris because "Biden will die and that leaves her as president." OK, and this means what? Please tell me what this means? It reminds me of my insurance lady saying she is against forgiving student loans because she had to pay damn good money for her education and that of her kids. This is only a step away from resenting that family in front of you at the super market because they are using a food stamp card. WTF? You had to pay for your food. A step away from that you hear of those who oppose Medicare for all because they had to wait many years and pay into the system to get it. This is all no more than the ones who are better off justifying themselves by saying they deserve it and others who did not work as hard do not. The proof is that we do not know how hard anyone has worked. It should all start by getting a good education. This is what levels the playing field. Many claim blacks do not want education and they are blind to history showing how we once had separate schools just like whites had separate food, water, hotels, etc. It took a while but we can thank LBJ for some changes here.

Rescind every executive order that Trump put his name on. Change foreign policy, go with Paris accords, back NATO, cut military spending, check into the green new deal and Medicare for all. We must also restore the EPA or lose clean water and food along the way. Our country should be set up for "we the people" but the Trump way of doing that is all for millionaires. I named some people to my insurance lady today and she told me they run the country. I said they would like to run the country maybe, but they don't. Her biggest gripe is that we should have "legal immigration." When was it not legal? **Trump spews that Mexico is not sending it's best, they are sending rapists thieves, and killers**. STOP. What we need to wake up to is the fact that nobody is being sent. People are often coming here in fear for their lives and they have dangerous conditions and surroundings. They want a better life. We should all want a better life and a better world. As for Trump's wall it's mostly a smoke screen and a talking point for Cult 45.

I got a Question...

DenoPenno comments on Nov 12, 2020:

Many of my relatives in Texas thought I was simply hating on Cult 45. They love the guy and did not understand. OK, let's go back to the Central Park Five. They were cleared by DNA but Donnie thought they should be executed. Who could want such a moron for president? No, I would not buy the Donald Trump clown car.

Does anyone still use “Oh please let me ...” in thought when you want something good to happen?

DenoPenno comments on Nov 12, 2020:

I have to agree that I sometimes use the phrase "thank god." It means nothing to me really but again I'm the guy who never can believe that all these people are "praying for you" even as they say it. We get conditioned into this just by living in our society. Back when Pat Robertson had interest in African diamond mines I'm told he prayed over it and tried to make bargains with his god that he deserved it, etc. Very pathetic. Going back into that last mega Powerball win, I dreamed the winning numbers coming to me on the Starship Enterprise. I played those numbers too. Since then I have stopped playing the lottery for a while.

Make it an island somewhere without electricity or the internet and i say go for it.

This would not work because there would not be enough money there for Donnie Dipshit to steal. He hated Tic Tok but if he reads this he might start liking them.

'What Was Your Normal?

DenoPenno comments on Nov 12, 2020:

Your last sentence brings it all out and Trump knew this from the beginning. It was all hidden and he wanted to stir it all up again using his base and his hate rallies. This is why there were "fine people on both sides" at Charlottesville. Racists then openly ran for office and one such racist white man told a reporter he would rather kill her as look at her. WTF is this? It is the re-kindled hate that others think will "go back to normal." This will never happen. It makes me sick. Whites do not see the distraction of idiot arguments and some fail to see they are racist. I've heard of some who do not want Kamala Harris in office coz Biden will die and then she is president. Others ask "do you want them living next door to you?" Some have even wanted to grill me on how I "have to hate" my Kenyan ex-wife. No, I don't and you all make me sick. The one good thing out of Trump is that I now have fewer friends. Not that I wanted fewer friends but the fact that you learn to see people for what they are.

I hope Biden has opened his eyes now, he wants to be civil with republitards?

DenoPenno comments on Nov 12, 2020:

Biden wants to "heal us" so badly that when Rudy starts whining about pardoning Trump (and he will do this soon) Biden might be inclined to listen. It will be a big mistake! Trump should never be pardoned. If Trump is pardoned he will only come back to bite you. (us)

Trump Jr. believes that superiority over animals thing. That's why he goes off to Africa and shoots them with a rifle. Too bad they could not shoot back. As for that force that has power over humans maybe you can call it the universe. Throw in time and you are almost done.

My only problem with this is that every time I read the name Biden my mind wanted to put the name Trump in its place. Other than that it is a bit harsh.

I doubt it and really do not worry about it much. What I worry about more is all the police cars with words to that effect on their bumpers. I have problems with what that means. Do they pray before doing something or shooting the suspect? Maybe they are like Dog the Bounty Hunter. IDK. "Prey" should be the word used here in many cases.

Will the President’s Lawsuits Overturn the Election?

DenoPenno comments on Nov 10, 2020:

The Trump lawsuit claiming a stolen election has zero proof to stand on. This is why I do not think it will ever reach Supreme Court review in any way. Trump has Barr and others working on getting evidence but they just do not have any evidence. Rupert Murdoch owns and controls Fox News and many others world wide with the name of the game being the making of money. It was OK to back Donald Trump in everything he did during the last 4 years because the controversy would cause situations that would make money. When Biden was shown to be the winner by electoral vote Kathryn Murdock said "I think we should go with this." She is the wife of James Murdoch one of the conservative sons who control the Murdoch empire. This may have split the Murdoch family but it is also why the election was called in Arizona. Trump could not get any more electoral votes and the Murdochs do not want any lawsuits that may cause them to lose money. Trump has been told to concede but he will not and now Fox News is not his friend. Media in general is not putting up with Trump's claims without evidence either. Once the lying starts media simply cuts it all off. I think this is a good reason that Trump is done. He don't know it yet and this messes up all of his financial world also and that's another reason he will not concede. Put a fork in him. Trump is done.

DenoPenno comments on Nov 10, 2020:

They will not accept evidence because they do not understand and do not want to understand. Even though their bible has a dating system made by Catholics they believe the actual time listed that everything was created. That's how we get a 6000 year old Earth. They also argue repeatedly that man did not come from monkeys which means they do not understand evolution. The most fundamentalist of them think dinosaur and early man skeletons along with aging of them is a trick of the devil. This fixes it because "god said it, I believe it, and that settles it." You cannot argue with or convince a fundamentalist Evangelical Christian.

I agree with this fully. They complain and think they are persecuted because their book says they will be persecuted. Put them in countries where they might actually be killed for religion and I would call that persecution.

DenoPenno comments on Nov 9, 2020:

I found this interesting in that we are told by the Trumpers that "the media called the election." Now I understand that owners of Fox Noise were some of the first to do so, and they called it in Arizona. This made Trump and others really mad. I'm sure the Murdochs want to avoid lawsuits and especially those that you cannot win. This would seem to show that moves Trump is making right now have little or no chance of success. Convincing Maddog Trump of this is maybe next to impossible. Hey, Donald. You served your purpose but your time is over now.

The other option is to just have that Satanic ritual right there in the clinic. This Dave guy is nuts. Totally nuts.
