@Dang I’m not answering you. You’re not worth my time. And you don’t deserve an explanation.

I’ve stayed OFF your threads, out of a minimum form of respect. When you step onto my thread, I will address you.

You have no worthy explanations, and I don’t care what you have to say. Good luck leaving Nazi Germany, and I hope that…[Read more]

2. Does it occur to you that Belle is bonded with people here and in turn others may be bonded with her?

3. You speak for all of the members in saying she does not benefit anyone here?

4. All you do is pick with fights and declare yourself a victim? That is hyperbole.

So fuck it. Why bother.

And yet, you’re bothering, for some mysterious reason.

You’re right. I’m not trying to convince anyone of anything. I’m not going to pour my heart out to have it dragged through the mud. Deal with it.

Then there is a serious question that must be answered.

What the hell are you doing here? What are your goals? What do you get o…[Read more]

I have seen prayer work. But I’m sure you’ll disagree

How can I disagree, when you’ve provided nothing for this conversation, including nothing for your own argument.

When did you see it work?

What happened?

How do you know that a supernatural being intervened?

How do you know WHICH supernatural being intervened?

That’s one reason why I’m here. I have no idea on what it is that “we” agree about, beyond the idea that there does not seem to be a good reason to belief in any gods, regardless of whether or not they are commercially-available for purchase. The other reason is to be as offensive as possible, or so I’ve heard.

I probably told the story before…[Read more]

Someone told me that they find comfort in the idea that our brains can be “backed up” into a computer.

Unless it’s moved, then it is only being copied, which suggests that the original is still slated to die.

This thread went all over the place, but that’s okay because it opens the floor to more things. Besides, it’s just a thread. No big whoop.

When it comes to a college education, it’s important to remember that “Ds get degrees.” My aunt went to college for six years to get her Master’s in Political Science, and she’s not even the best waitress at…[Read more]

But if you think you made the wrong decisions do you now think you could go back in time and make a better decision. Probably not.

With my grandmother’s situation, the one requiring the active decision, I think that I was in a place where the right decision was impossible, because my son’s presence was the wild card. It came…[Read more]

I’ve heard it many times the words should be…… shalt not ”murder”.

It might depend on which version of the bible is reference.

For King James Version, the most popular version in America, in Exodus 20:13 – Thou shalt not kill.

Now I wonder why so many American “Christians” own guns, and are all about “stand your ground.”

When I hear that “Jesus would not raise a fist,” I cannot help but imagine him with a double-edged sword coming out of his mouth. I know, the mouth is not a fist.
