Supernatural VS Atheist

MsDemeanour comments on Aug 17, 2018:

I think people are afraid of dying which is why religions have been made up.

Have you ever had a 'supernatural' experience that they can't explain?

MsDemeanour comments on Aug 17, 2018:

I have had odd experiences but I never jump to the conclusion that the supernatural had anything to do with it. I believe there is a perfectly rational explanation for everyone

I deeply believe that there is no guiding Force or Purpose in life -- only what you make out of it.

MsDemeanour comments on Aug 16, 2018:

Karma irks me. "what comes around goes around" How bloody passive is that? I'm not waiting around for some superstitious karma. I'll take my revenge....swift and deadly. So watch out!!!!!

years ago a wallaby hit me right in the leg when I was riding my suzuki 650. So lucky it didn't hit a wheel or I woulda hit the ground. wobbled a bit but kept going. Lucky it wasn't a roo, they can be 6ft tall or more. Bloody sore leg but unfortunately the wallaby got off the worse. Didn't survive the collision

Is it OK to be racist against white people?

MsDemeanour comments on Aug 14, 2018:

Racism can only occur by the privileged ruling class. So if I go to China and I am ridiculed for my pale white skin and golf-ball round eyes or not passed over for a promotion on the grounds of my so called 'race'. The chinese are teh ones in the position of power and in this situation they would be racist. In other countries where Caucasions are the dominant ruling class I would say it is not possible for other groups to be racist because they are still scrambling for equality. The racism directed at them are negative stereotypes that perpetuates racism.

Female body hair. Have you examined your prejudices?

MsDemeanour comments on Aug 14, 2018:

now this is one of the reasons I love winter. No one sees my legs or pits for months. It's also one of the reasons that puts me off the pursuit of love. Too much maintenance. I don't want to get my nails done, I don't want to shave my legs (that aren't that hairy anyway) and I certainly don't want to shave my privates. It is just a fashion now just as tattoos are and perms were in the ''90s. And I have no interest in men who shave their chests, legs or scrotum. Hairier the better. It's a sign of testosterone.

Of course there is no such thing as Karma. Trump is walking proof of that. You might find comfort in thinking that what goes around comes around but there are plenty of unsolved murders to prove that isn't so. Me? I prefer to exact my own revenge!!! (evil laugh)

MsDemeanour comments on Jul 30, 2018:

I'm so so sorry. I haven't lost a child. My wonderful husband died suddenly when my 4 boys were all under 8. Many years ago now. The bad news is you will never get over this. You will absorb it into yourself and you learn to live with it. Thing is, you wouldn't WANT to just get over it. He was worth every tear you cry. And he continues to live within your heart and those who loved him. But it will get easier. One day you will be glad to have had him in your life, better to be a short time than never to have known him. But this is a long way off my dear friend, and you have such pain to go through. I hurt just imagining your pain. One day you will be a gift to someone who sadly will go through the same thing as you.

MsDemeanour comments on Jul 30, 2018:

My fav book for many years. I was young and thought the passion was so romantic despite being so destructive. It's more than a gothic, it is one of the greatest love stories albeit obsessional love. And I loved the writing. “My love for Linton is like the foliage in the woods: time will change it, I'm well aware, as winter changes the trees. My love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath: a source of little visible delight, but necessary. Nelly, I am Healthcliff! He's always, always in my mind: not as a pleasure, any more than I am always a pleasure to myself, but as my own being.”

Superior in what way? Throughout history there has been rise and falls of great civilisations. I expect China will be the next super power. The Egyptians were the first to write. They had a justice system and government when the English were barely out of caves. I dunno what history books you have been reading.

Why do women shave off their eyebrows just to pencil it back in? lol!

MsDemeanour comments on Jul 26, 2018:

I know older women who have to draw on eyebrows simply because they no longer have them. When we get older we have less hair and eyebrows aren't as thick as when we were young. So along with years of waxing and plucking, many women simply don't have eyebrows and have to draw them on.

an agnostic doesn't *believe* so default she must be an atheist. I trust science. So at the moment we are at the place where the origin of the universe can be explained without a god. But of course it can't be proved there is NO god. So by default, I put 95% sure there is no god because no one can prove one way or the other there is no god. However I prefer to round up and so can call myself an atheist.

Is graffiti art or vandalism, or...?

MsDemeanour comments on Jul 24, 2018:

Art has always been pushing boundaries. I like the daring of the graffiti artists. When it is illegal, they learn to paint fast. It is temporary. Often it is whitewashed in days. They want their work up there, make a statement and then its gone. I find it fascinating. Love Banksy Please look here where graffiti arts sued an owner of a building and were awarded 6.7million. https://theconversation.com/how-21-artists-graffitied-one-mans-property-made-it-famous-sued-him-when-he-knocked-it-down-and-won-6-7m-91933

Social Gender Roles?

Social Gender Roles?

MsDemeanour comments on Jul 22, 2018:

This is good Kip. It concerns me when some men flounder about their 'identity' with todays fluid gender roles. They beat their chests, hate feminism and want women back in the kitchen. But they have missed the whole point. With the blurred gender roles it allows greater freedom for men as well as women. Men can be house husbands. They no longer have to feel inferior if they earn less money. They have a partner to share the burden of decision making, they have freedom to enter what was once considered feminine jobs like the caring professions, social work, support workers, kindergarten workers etc etc. I'm so glad that men here are progressive thinkers. I'm beginning to think we should all form our own country.

Has Saudi Arabia been funding extreme left pundits to denigrate Israel?

MsDemeanour comments on Jul 21, 2018:

The saudi's don't need to denigrate the Israelis. They bring it upon themselves as they are hell bent on removing Palestine and its people off the face of the Earth. Who has feathered Trumps move to recognise Jerusalem as Israel's capital. Jerusalem, sacred to three religions but where no christian or muslim is safe, nor do they have the same rights. This is a prime example of why I actively hate religions. They are divisive and dangerous.

What is really strange is that the physical feelings of an adrenal rush and an anxiety attack are almost identical. Perhaps it's just the interpretation I put on those physiological symptoms.
