Bit coin is shit coin. I go with the accepted form of currency used by the government I am living under. Gimme gold paint and I can turn anything into gold. I have no gold and silver. In case of a total collapse I can see those who want food or gasoline running around in panic trying to offer others gold and silver. They would be trampled under foot. Also in a case of total collapse it is not likely for you have a freezer packed with food like they wanted to sell you on in the 1970's. Today the idea is sell you on packaged food that you simply mix with good clean water. Where would you get that water? I like to be smart and try to be prepared but others sure like to make money off ideas of collapse.

DenoPenno comments on Feb 10, 2023:

Free will is a biblical concept that apologists have come up with because god wants you to worship him freely and openly without being forced or commanded to do so. That is where free will comes from and all it is. In reality you have the free will to rape and kill the same as those you did harm to have the free will to be raped and killed. We have taken the term out of religion and the bible when we view it this way. I might have the free will to marry Susie, but then, maybe not. Free will is a myth.

You may have heard—or even used—the terms religion and spirituality interchangeably.

DenoPenno comments on Feb 9, 2023:

From the perspective of the soul. What soul? You were not made with a soul, given a soul, or created with a soul. You are the soul. This soul idea goes back to biblical belief for most of us whether you are an active in church believer today or not. We keep hanging on to an idea that we have some invisible non physical soul that travels around everywhere, knows and seeks what we want, and can be in our out of our bodies. Sorry. That's your mind. If you hang on to biblical beliefs on the soul idea you learn that a god breathed into you and you became "a living soul." The hell with St. Paul. OK, I guess you could also be a dead soul if not living. Again, you are the soul. As for the other great questions here like "who am I, what do I want, what is my purpose, and what is the meaning of life" you have to figure these out on your own. The answers are not the same for every individual. You make your own purpose and create your own meaning. There is nothing mystical about this. Spirituality is a term and "being spiritual" can mean anything that you want it to mean.

I knew that my ex and I were in trouble when I discovered that both of us wanted to be the dominate person in the relationship. This meant that both of us wanted to control everything. I, for one, have to know what is going on. We had no stupid arguments with imagined others but we had control issues and lots of stress. I last talked to her on the phone when she called me January 2nd. We talked an hour but have talked up to 4 hours at a time. I always have her laughing and gigling and that makes me happy. Once the call is over I feel very good but I'm also aware that I have less stress in my life today than I did before and I like it that way.

Some of this fascist talk moves on into the shooting down of the Chinese balloon. Some are saying Biden just wants to look tough and we planted that balloon. How could it have traveled across our air space without being detected? Apparently it does not matter that they sent balloons when Trump was in office but it never got reported to the White House. If that happened then someone is not doing their job. Maybe again Trump is the clue here. In an attempt to make Biden look bad people forget that China admits it was their balloon. Yes, they said that and any half way intelligent person would know that news media worldwide has picked up on this. American political parties do not control worldwide media. It would be so easy to prove that America is lying about this. Media somewhere would bring it out. China would bring it out as false themselves. WTF is wrong with people? Apparently Trumpers have to go along with the Chinese balloon being an American "plant" so Trump keeps looking good. Adding this an hour later. I talked with my insurance agent and she says a "military man" told her the China balloon is a "plant" by Biden. She also says she is getting tired of Trump being used to support Republican ideas. It makes her angry and she is a Republican. In her circle of known people I am also a 'military man" but I make no claims about our defense systems. LOL :)

DenoPenno comments on Feb 5, 2023:

We do fund healthcare. If you have not heard Social Security expands into where the needy can get healthcare for themselves and children who need it. This is an insurance program but Republicans keep using the word "entitlement" in a bad way and want to dismantle it or tear it down. They also want to determine who can benefit by having nutrition classes and exercise before giving anything to the needy. This only proves who is in control and has nothing to do with the needy. I'm really glad that you are a health expert but I can shorten this a bit. Here I am in 1978 and at that time I could press 110 lbs. overhead with one hand. Either hand. I worked out and had good nutrition. Times, people, and other things change. Today I have neuropathy, walk in special shoes, and have balance problems. I continue to work at 76 years old. Maybe some of your ideas would have helped me to be as healthy as you instead. I might add that I am a Progressive. I believe our nation should provide work, healthcare, food, and housing with no regard to race or origin. Other countries do this and we can too if we ever stop our political nonsense.

Re-branding Jesus?

DenoPenno comments on Feb 5, 2023:

Taking my thoughts on it to the extreme I wonder how long it would take for us to have a completely different Jesus? This is what Green is trying to do. It is no different than having apologists make claims over ideas that we know are not there to begin with. It can be said that David Green is a super religious nut. He had to return some items from his Museum because he did not own them. If you spend 3 billion to re-brand Jesus you must be expecting to get more money in return. People do and say strange things. One man in our group told me recently that words Jesus supposedly said over 2000 years ago were supporting the separation of church and state. I can see that. :) A religious Jew in ancient Israel is supporting the American Constitution and Bill of Rights. He had no idea our country existed when he supposedly made the remark. If Green has his way maybe Jesus will come back as a Christian Nationalist. Jesus never started Christianity in the first place. He was a Jew trying to become the Messiah. None of this had anything to do with America.

I see it differently. * They do not believe in a soul and claim when you are dead you are dead. * They have only 144,000 going to heaven. * The resurrected dead will live on a new Earth coming out of the ashes of the old. Church believers want to have a soul, something their god gave them, and it can fly around instantly once separated from the body at death. If you love your god and follow his teachings you can see your loved ones in heaven, but this is not in the bible. Singing god's praises forever and ever is in the bible. Those nasty JW's. They are taking away from your beliefs and want to change them. Ask a Pentecostal or a Baptist. They know. :)

I hate Cortana, the spy, and have ripped her out of my systems on all 3 of my desktop computers. I have also destroyed Windows Defender because that it what it does. It defends Windows and Microsoft.

While George is telling us the truth here keep in mind that voting is needed. The reason is that every society will have a leader and even dictators will have their people vote. This is so they can claim their authority is "legal."

Does anyone else agree with me that we should be DISCUSSING religion rather than DEBATING it?

I have a killer point to silence the other side. Constantine arranged for the 66 smaller books we know as our bible to be put into book form complete with beginning and end, and this happened some 300 plus years after the time of Jesus. This is a fact. To add variables you have to go into ancient Jewish writings that had nothing to do with Christianity as we know it today. People put so much stock into "the truth of Revelation" but that book barely made it into the known canon. Believers hold onto what Jesus was said to believe from the OT but Christians forget that Jesus was a Jew. People can argue this back and forth if they want to but it proves nothing. Jewish people do not even see the OT writings in the same context that modern Christians do. Once I make this all known I refuse to argue the point. The "what ifs" or let's suppose" and "maybe" about it are all pointless. Either that or others are filling in points around things I've written above.

Let's try the true Scotsman argument. We will include true atheists.

I seldom think of my own mortality except for wanting my death to have no pain. I am also aware that death brings on much unfinished business. As for loved ones who have died, I was never there at their last moments. Here today and gone tomorrow is a true saying.

So very true. I have been vaccinated my entire life and I remember measles and diphtheria. I also remember and knew people who had polio. The anti-vaxxers need to know that even anthrax did not go away on its own.

They prescribe knowledge to be a subset of belief.

DenoPenno comments on Jan 31, 2023:

All information is either true or false and many do not know the difference. Often it is because we are tribal and think we belong to one group or the other. This makes truth very elusive. Truth must be similar to beauty being in the eye of the beholder only now we are talking about the mind.

Beau of the Fifth Column - Let's talk about Social Security and why the GOP is going after it.

DenoPenno comments on Jan 30, 2023:

The bottom line on this to me is that you never hear of a Republican refusing his Social Security money. If they get the check nobody is giving it back. Deep down they know that it is an insurance program and meeting the requirements of the program is the only way you are entitled.

There is no meaning of life except for what you yourself designate as meaningful.

Is it any wonder that Gamble is still having trouble finding a doctor willing and able to treat her? These stupid people cannot see that her symptoms appeared almost immediately after the first dose.

Religion vs. Spirituality: The Difference Between Them

It has been my experience that spirituality can mean anything that you want it to mean. This is why I seldom get into this type of discussion.
