What about NDE's (Near Death Experiences)?

DenoPenno comments on Aug 17, 2020:

Why not? The person was not dead, they were near death. Your brain gets all confused at this state. The body laying wherever it is at this point does not go anywhere. It has what we call an NDE that some use to explain their "after death" experiences. To even go this far you have to invent a "soul" that many think you are given at birth. (The breath of life.) Others use the soul idea to immediately claim they are immortal. This looks like a setup to explain what you want to believe. This is all done without involving ectoplasm like they did years ago. I'm not impressed.

The recession is over for the rich, but the working class is far from recovered [msn.

DenoPenno comments on Aug 14, 2020:

It is even greater than this. Trump has already said that if he is re-elected he will dismantle Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid next year. His method is in doing away with payroll taxes by Executive Order. Surprise ! If this is done you have no Social Security and the needed programs die off. Even a 401K started at birth would not produce enough money to take care of your medical needs. What about mom and dad, grandma and grandpa -- or even yourself? Someone needs to stop this maniac.

Perhaps I’m not as confident in my ability to discuss religion or philosophy or even politics.

DenoPenno comments on Aug 14, 2020:

This is true. I find that many people debating or arguing religion actually had a preconceived idea to start with. Why would I go on and on with them when I know the outcome they desire? Just take Evangelical religion for a moment. Your perfect god decided that humans should get here through incest. Believers point out that mankind was sinful. What sin was it? God got so angry he wanted to destroy every one with water. When the 8 people he saved emerge from the Ark he (god) once again wants to populate the earth through incest. This process is repeated another time with Lot and his daughters. At this point we either have to admit that the story is true -- or not. If the story is not true then the bible book is done. It tells you only lies.

Two areas of my little community of 1599 are doing tent revivals and bible talk is the thing of the day. This is insanity. Even the corporation I work for is talking nonsense in the magazines they put out for us to read. I tried to read one on lunch break and immediately thought " WTF are they talking about?" We are being targeted and set up for something. I think it is a world without social security taxes and all that pays for us. Those in power would be happy if you worked 2 or 3 jobs and did it all from home. I refuse to left them stress me. You cannot be happy and also be stressed.

Simply say "I think I understand, so now tell me how to make it better." Suddenly you are both on the same page and there is no argument.
