So I was talking to a friend today about death. Why do people tend to idolize the dead.?

DenoPenno comments on Dec 14, 2018:

I don't idolize the dead. I tend to say nice things about the dead unless they were some weird jackoff like POTUS. (Sorry. He isn't dead yet.) But people do strange things that get into TV shows. I saw the rerun again of how Michael Jackson's doctor got convicted for his death. It's all interesting but the real one that killed Michael Jackson was first and foremost - Michael Jackson.

DenoPenno comments on Dec 12, 2018:

**There is a great secret** to the birth and death of the man/god that we all call Jesus Christ. We find that nobody knows when he was born. Gospel writings have two versions and they differ in order to put him in the right place at the right time. Even so, there are no records outside of biblical writings. Nothing in history backs up the stories. There is no time stamp to this event. Moving on into his death we again find two versions according to the bible. One is early morning about 9 AM and the other is in the afternoon. The death of Jesus is associated with a religious event that changes from year to year. We cannot pinpoint a real death for Jesus on any calendar. I know when my loved ones were born and I also know when they died and can find where they are buried. This cannot be done in the case of Jesus although many places are said to be his birth and death place. People argue over this and none of it can be found in any scripture. It simply is not there in any provable way. Yes, there is a great secret to the birth and death of Jesus.

It appears that people are starting to wake up. Similar things may spread to other nations. Here is one problem in interpretation. Everyone assumes that "a political statement" is being made. No, no, no! That is the problem. This is not about politics really. It is all about "bad politics."

Dating is harder after 50. Here's why.... [thepowerofsilence.co]

DenoPenno comments on Dec 11, 2018:

Here is the biggest reason it is hard for me. With a great deal on a mobile home and a half acre I have something I can afford at unbelievable price. I'm not going to risk giving it up to be with you in your nice house and have less money still, then if we fail I come back to find I am spending 5 times as much for something less and I just don't have the money. I'm also not going to go through the bullshit of watching your TV shows this week and mine the next, or doing your things, then my things, etc. (Yes, some people are like that.) A couple can learn to get along and do things together as well as separately. It is OK for them to like different things. My ex was always influenced by those who told her privately that she should not live in a mobile home and she should have more. Today she does. She is in an apartment and pays about 4 times more. I simply cannot "live on the edge" as so many people do. I once saw a movie about 2 cops who needed $10,000 to start a business so they robbed a bank. It was a serious film but I thought it was funny.

As a non believer do you still enjoy movies/shows that derive story from religion?

DenoPenno comments on Dec 11, 2018:

I used to love supernatural shows and books. Today they make me want to vomit or laugh myself silly. I could no more watch "Lucifer" on TV than beat my own brains out with a hammer. Why do I feel this way? It is because this is all stupidity. I do watch some fantasy shows and movies but this sort of show (Lucifer) is almost advanced stupidity. Let's flip it and imagine Zeus in a similar situation where he is trying to learn benefits of creating humans, etc. I would have no interest. No interest at all.

DenoPenno comments on Dec 4, 2018:

I think it is a great concern now for all of us in the industrialized world. It seems that most money making today is in goods and services. This is what we are stuck with and I see no way out unless you come forward with a system that does more in goods and services. If you do, you may become super rich. At 72 I don't think I'm going forward into a money making world any longer. For those that are, consider this. Driving a vehicle is almost a thing of the past. Imagine what this will do to the economy. How many more will be out of work? No buss and truck drivers. The list of lost driver jobs could become very large as you imagine a UPS self driving vehicle making it's rounds of delivery. It pulls up and stops, a speaker comes on and tells the receiver person what to do and where to fingerprint sign, a door opens and the receiver picks up the merchandise. The driverless vehicle goes on to another stop. This is not science fiction. It is here now and right around the corner. The UPS truck is but one example. Auto makers are already adjusting for this future and in less than another 30 years vehicles as we know them will no longer be around. Politicians and presidents can rant and rave about jobs all they want to. Nothing can help or change this. Nothing can stop it from happening. This is just ONE example of what is in store for us in an unsettling future.

He seems to think his brand of talk is to give you hope and something to look forward to even if it never happens at all. He does not see this as lying.
