I agree, I'm just old enough to remember the days when, what our politicians said and did were mostly trusted. Now, it's a matter of trying to figure out if what they're saying has any truth too it. And hoping that what they're doing will be in everyone's best interest or if it's just a way to pay ...

Follow the money. The Supreme Court fucked up big time when they equated money with free speech. The British got it right as far as that goes.

Plan 9 From Outer Space. It may be the worst movie ever made. If it cost more than a couple thousand dollars to make it doesn't show. It was the last movie Bela Lugosi appeared in. Check it out.

ChrisLand1966 comments on May 3, 2018:

Well, exactly. I happen to believe in God, but I don’t for a minute try to show anyone proof in God. Which by your definition makes me an agnostic believer. The good news for me is that my faith in God doesn’t require proof of the existence of God, it just is.

Why are you on this site? Just curious. ?

Is there no positive rally point for atheists?

Sticks48 comments on May 3, 2018:

Folks here talk about everything, and l mean everything. That is why it is better than a regular dating site. The fact that everyone is a nonbeliever seems to make it easier for people to broach pretty much any subject.

I don't argue anymore with those who are still advocating for their right to own assault rifles. If dead children haven't changed their minds evidently nothing will.
