What evidence is there for a spiritual realm? None. Zero. Being spiritual can mean almost anything you want it to mean. I once told a woman I worked with that I was no longer a believer. She said that I seemed so spiritual to her. I think what she meant was that she did not see me as wanting to eat babies.

The country might go back 100 years but about 85 is what they are trying for. If Barrett truly is an "originalist" Constitutionally we all need to consider that she would not even be allowed to vote, let alone be a judge of any kind.

DenoPenno comments on Oct 30, 2020:

Yes, but there is one problem here. Angels in heaven do not come from dead humans who lived on Earth. The bible is plain that Angels are created. Modern Evangelicals might be confused by a verse in Revelation 22:9 where the angel says he is a servant just like you and the prophets, etc. and therefore should not be worshiped. Believers think the Angel said he was once a man just like you, but that is not what was said at all. For some reason the religious think that their god makes dead humans (including babies) into heavenly Angels and tell this to the grieving possibly trying to comfort them. It has no comfort to me. It is almost sickening.

Is an atheist kinder than a believer? What is your experience?

DenoPenno comments on Oct 29, 2020:

I'm trying to answer this and cannot really. It's because I do not know. To me some atheists are stupid. These are the ones who cannot believe in gods but yet do believe in spirits and people on other planets, also thinking spacemen were our early "gods." The reason I call this stupid is because suddenly there are several things all at once to not have evidence for. This type of reasoning is why Scientology caught on with so many. You know, the religion started by an alcoholic science fiction writer. Back to your original question. I'm not so sure I can answer it. I do believe that the kinder people are those who are not always making stuff up.

Majority of Gays Are Possessed by Ghosts, So-Called Study Says

DenoPenno comments on Oct 29, 2020:

Of course they have no proof for any of it. In my church daze it was not ghosts but spirits and demons instead. Since they have no bodies themselves they enter into you in order to experience their "perversions" through your body. Getting rid of them would involve a lot of praying, speaking in tongues, and rolling around on the floor. I can only imagine that if the church members thought they had a truly gay person and if that person was smart, they might go through with this just so the church would leave them alone. Maybe they wanted to be a church member so they played along once discovered or found out. If so, this would lead on into "conversion therapy" groups later as the church would think their "cure" really did work. I don't know the above for a fact and I'm only guessing. I do this because a large number of gay people want to continue clinging on to a religion. This gets me to asking why a church would think spirits and demons wanted gay sex. Is this something normal spirits and demons do? Where did they learn it? For anyone thinking on this "conversion therapy" now starts to look very lame. I see the article as taking what I've said and adding that the possessing spirit is of the opposite sex in order to explain the attraction gay and lesbian's have for the same sex. In my time we were not that smart in explaining the "why" of the situation.

Frightening and very sad. I say this because that 28 percent who think the bible should influence and reflect U. S. law are greatly deceived by another group that we know today as the top 1 percent. This includes Koch, DeVos, Mercer and others who want America to become that "Christian Nation" that it never was to begin with. Then it becomes so much easier to use religion to make the poor work for you. People need to wake up.

DenoPenno comments on Oct 28, 2020:

The cult of 45 does not care. One woman in Florida put it right about a year ago. She said she supports Trump but he is not hurting the right people. This is some sort of inner truth that Trumpers suppose they have. My question is why do we have to hurt anyone? Then there is the bumper sticker that I saw again just last week -- "Trump 2020 -- Make Liberals Cry Again." For some this is what it's about. No conscience and no empathy. It follows that many are really happy that they have no taxes, or almost no taxes now. OK, where does road improvements and other such things come from? It seems like nobody is thinking here. In my area people act as though they are happy to get a couple of extra bucks on their paycheck, and some argue that corporations should not have to provide you with benefits. You can't fix stupid. Some are apparently proud that they have 3 jobs now. Then there are the non-working dopers up the street from me who have a Trump sign in their front yard. This is ignorant chaos all the way around.

It certainly has very little to do with religion.

Advocates fear Barrett will strip away gay rights. It could begin next week.

DenoPenno comments on Oct 28, 2020:

Barrett will be all for stripping that away. Let's keep in mind that there are others on the Supreme Court who might counter her view. The question is why now? Why is this all coming back to bite us now? Remember that Barrett is an "originalist" Constitution wise and would also have to admit there were no women voters or women judges back in the early days. This makes her view and her position an oxymoron.

Originalist this.

DenoPenno comments on Oct 28, 2020:

Perfect answer for a shill like Barrett. By her own definition of "originalist" she would have no position at all. Too many fail to see this and they cannot see what is going on here. Trump and his GOP want to use her to chop up needed programs.

I've even seen cases on TV where a judge steps in at last minute before jury deliberation and tells the jury exactly how they have to react and the conclusion they have to come up with by law. Some legal things are just absurd. As for Breonna Taylor, she was murdered. Anything racial here? Let me switch briefly to Kamala Harris dancing in the rain at a recent gathering. People made bad remarks about it. Can't a black woman be happy? Would the bad remarks be there if it was a white person dancing in the rain? People of color get bad remarks generally and sometimes like Breonna Taylor they get murdered.

I posted that "this is a baby who has no idea what an asshole is at all." OMG. The woman who has doper posts also called me a "dude" and said I should not read her posts "straight up." She loves her child, and the child is taken care of properly, and she gave everything for that child, etc., etc. I simply posted again that she doesn't get it and I never said or even hinted at any of that. So much for posts of this old white guy. I suppose I'm "fricking sad" also.

When I was there some were amazed at how I said you could take old water heaters and strip them to bare metal, then have reflective mirrors around them to heat water. This setup would be on top of a roof and should work fine. The hotel I was in wasted energy by turning water heaters on and off. It takes too long to heat it all back up.

The goal is to get me to download Whatsap so we can be together. I played along until the suspected bot gave up. This may not be an exact "pimping out" but I find it similar. Rather than someone else setting you up, someone or something on the Meet Me site is doing it. Once again WE are the product. The goal is to sell us something and even steal your information along the way. Whether you play along for fun or not always beware in this sort of situation.

Religious Leaders Lash Out at Pope Francis for Supporting Civil Union Laws | Hemant Mehta | Friendly...

DenoPenno comments on Oct 24, 2020:

Regardless of civil union or who lives with who, they want to claim a right to go into your home and remove "uncle Charlie" because they have found out who he really is and you are not related at all. This is the desire of "the bedroom police." This type of thought comes when the religious neighbors start talking. What the Pope is trying to do is set up legalities that can lead into law involving property inheritance and other related things. This is needed. Many of us can remember when marriage finally went the ways of "common law." People hated the way that went too because god and the bible, and even the circuit clerk were not involved. Hmm. Someone got cheated out of a tax somewhere.

I understand your every word and it works on me about the same way. I find it hard to sleep and can't wait until the Orange Asshole is gone. It might not be that simple and Trump knows it. The Supreme Court is gaining a Trump shill in Amy Barrett. Not a judge for even a full 3 years yet, she is claiming to be an "originist' in Constitutional interpretation. This means she will say that social security, Medicare, and Medicaid may not be Constitutional when the time comes to do so. She may do much more. Even if Biden and Harris win by a landslide that shoots the electoral votes through the roof Trump and friends will declare that absentee and mail in votes caused this "fraud" and it gets tied up in the courts. We all know that such voting is legal and has always been an option but Trump's GOP would also like to be a part of the electorals state to state. It's like the fox guarding the hen house. We also have Trump repeatedly saying he deserves a third term (I have already seen flags for this) because "they spied on me." This must be straight out of the Trump rulebook but what he is talking about here is our intelligence agencies doing their jobs as they rightly should be. Will Trump leave the WH peacefully or be drug out kicking and screaming? He is trying to fix it to where this does not happen either way, and it is time for his supporters to grow a backbone. Bad times may be ahead but it is time to Dump Trump.

DenoPenno comments on Oct 22, 2020:

I like that. I passed a Trump flag and sign site today that had a sign "all lives matter." I didn't do it but I wanted to stop and state that all lives do not matter to Trump. If you think otherwise you are not listening.

Copland is an old style televangelist. I'm sure he thinks Christianity should become America's religion and anybody else of other beliefs should leave.

I would not attend a Trump event of any kind even if he was **not** a superspreader. If this is out of context it does fit the election circuit.

The best we can do is call for term limits to Supreme Court appointees. Why not? Otherwise you are stuck with these people until they die. Somehow that does not seem right.

If you were raised religious as a child, what is your worst religious memory?

DenoPenno comments on Oct 21, 2020:

This is what usually happens. Later on the poor girl beats her own kids coz she thinks this is normal. I whipped my kids but only gently to get their attention. Swat swat. About 2 swats would do it. Never a stick or switch or anything. No time outs or other such bs. Later my girls thought my stern voice was "yelling at them." Yelling at kids does no good.
