DenoPenno comments on Oct 14, 2021:

Overnight I thought of my answers to Powder and I have to come back and make one thing clear. The Internet had plenty of "Fuck Trump" memes. That was for sure. What you see on the Internet and what you actually see on vehicles or in yards are two different things. I'm sure there was also flags. None flew in my area. I imagine it was fear. Of course, websites had a field day. Memes everywhere and angry people responding to attacks on their political god.

Save this link for a rainy day.

DenoPenno comments on Oct 13, 2021:

I agree with a lot of this but always remember that there were no Christians (followers of Jesus that they called Christ) until after his death. Too many times today believers want to go back into the OT and claim those passages said certain things about Jesus, or predicted his coming, but it simply was not true. Even in Genesis 3:15 the modern believers claim this predicts Jesus as a savior. It does not. Again we have Evangelicals believing what they want to.

10 Reasons to Wear a Mask

DenoPenno comments on Oct 13, 2021:

When I wear mine I look like the guy holding up the stagecoach. It is around my neck like a bandana and all I have to do is pull it up.

So there must be Karma of some sort roaming around this world.

DenoPenno comments on Oct 13, 2021:

My ideas of karma are different than yours. I claim that karma is simply "doing." One Jewish friend agrees with me. As for Evangeloon, it is a shame he is sick but he brought this upon himself 100 percent. I see these types every day and they say anything to avoid being vaccinated. No, it is not in your bible or your Constitution, I tell them. Your god says nothing about it. I've always thought that the religious think they have something you do not. This is why they are so defiant. In the case of Covid and its variants this will prove to be true simply because they do not listen. My own older daughter is one of them. This crisis came and she turned back to religion. No vaccines for her. At my work a Trumper girl is now sick with Covid. Maybe she has the "China Flu." Even without religion people simply do not listen. In Wisconsin I have a vaccinated social media friend who got Covid and was sick only 6 days. All of this adds to the anti-vaxxers of any reason to make their claims that you can be vaccinated and still get sick. The subject and situation is really a mess.

How many times a month, do you as an agnostic, answer to a point of an argument or to a direct ...

DenoPenno comments on Oct 13, 2021:

Let me modify the question you are giving and change it to a simple "I don't know." I say it a lot in religious discussions without going on forever about bible doctrine. One of my favorites is **"I don't know and you don't either. You're making it up." **If this gets back to "the bible says" I come back with "why should we believe the bible?" As for the lying part, I usually lie by omission. Keep my mouth shut and don't go far enough to be a part of the lie. I submit this as an atheist. If you like you can call me an agnostic atheist. I really do not know and I am not making it up.

It's hard to understand the reasoning behind these facts.

They deserve this. Yesterday at work I had to mock one of them in polite ways because he told me it was all a trick of the government and he told me it was the flu. I agreed with him on the flu and took him back 100 years when a similar thing happened to us, then brought him up to date. Can you be vaccinated and still get sick? Of course. It happened to my friend in Wisconsin and she was sick for 6 days.

In my youth everyone peed outdoors. Even with an outdoor toilet you ended up peeing on the ground. I was a kid in St. Louis and our apartments still had outdoor toilets. The modern flush toilets had just been installed but you could still use both of them.

I agree with your every word here. Simple indeed. These people do feel that it is their duty to convert us and they seem to fail to understand that we were once where they are now.

"Christ is the Answer" Comment made online about an innocent woman killed by a "Mugger" in Times...

DenoPenno comments on Oct 10, 2021:

Christ is only the answer in the Christian religion. Others have many other answers and none of them accurately address the problems you mention. BTW, the bible is not a book written 2000 years ago. It is many books from varying times put together as one book some 300 plus years after the supposed time of Jesus. This is why the big book has so much confusion in it and it is also contradictory. This fact and the fact that the god of the bible seems to do nothing is why I could never be a Christian again. Other religions are equally as bad. Today I am "saved" from religion.

You know you are!

DenoPenno comments on Oct 9, 2021:

I cannot go with the meme here. Science has never attempted to prove if gods were real or fake. There is no valid starting point to make them want to do so.

DenoPenno comments on Oct 9, 2021:

I refuse to do it. I tell my medical people that images on a screen mean nothing. Even in the office I say I'll take my shirt off and show you. They tell me to keep the shirt on and they imagine what I am trying to say. Piss poor of our medical profession. Really piss poor. This year I stop the "in home" visits as I have found they are using this to have you report on yourself. I will stick to the office visits every 6 months instead.

That’s what she said…

DenoPenno comments on Oct 9, 2021:

The meme is funny and exactly what men of today would be asking. The scriptual claim that Mary was with child by the Holy Ghost does not imply that she was fucked by god or that she invented this wild story to get off the hook about being pregnant. Joseph was the father and the pregnancy came too soon. Joseph would have had the "holy ghost."

I believe the "AI police" are at a standstill because of a lack of word salad that they deal with and the fact that FB does want to generate replies and controversy. Play nice has become "say nice." A meme is mind food but FB has been known to remove an untrue meme. Usually they have words on them to cause this.

DenoPenno comments on Oct 6, 2021:

I'm not gay and not black but the only ones left in my family that would give a damn are my 2 daughters. Unfortunately the pandemic, a murdered grandson, and wishful thinking has made my kids turn more towards a god belief. I get told often that "I believe in my own way." That's when I tell my kids everyone else feels that way too. This is why there are so many damned religions. When I came out atheist my mother and sister were already dead. Sometimes my stepdad told me "you are going to split hell wide open." Now he is dead too. BTW, the biblical hell started in the grave and now its location has changed and moved over time. Myth does that sort of thing.

Sorry about your FB jail time. I'm on that site as well and they decided to ban me from marketplace, possibly even permanently. Facebook AI decided I was "trying to sell domain names and also become a car dealer." This came about because I got into developer tools which they said was forbidden. What a setup. My involvement in marketplace was mostly to check on local yard sales. The current trend on Facebook is to generate controversy to keep everyone talking, but you do it without "hate speech." This means Lindell's actions cannot hang him but would maybe "do him in." I'm also finding a valid news feed now where they want likes and thumbs, and my feed now shows me ads that they have determined I might buy something from. I ignore them completely and have told them many times to stop showing me things I look at. I know what I look at and do not have to be shown again. This also happens in my e-mail and I click them as spam immediately.

I can identify with a lot of this as a white kid growing up in Missouri. We simply did not understand because things were set up to where we were not supposed to understand other races. It took the Army to start straightening me out. Notice I said "start." What you are writing here is true but many of us did not give it a second thought. I went from extreme right wing beliefs and politics simply by discovering people and knowing people. All races of people became human to me and my ex wife of 12 years is from Kenya. My small community was upset many years ago because they thought a local man who married a Filipino woman had married a black. This gets more complicated by the fact that a popular song on the radio was "Filipino Baby."

Anne Marie Waters makes some very strong points that seem very valid. Let us assume that Begum made a choice that did not work out for her, or that her choice now seems foolish. It does not mean she gets a "re-do" and all should be forgotten. Yes, people can change. While still in high school I started studying for the ministry and believed in all sorts of woo. Radio and TV waves proved a lot of it because they were there and yet you could not see them. Through Jesus you would never die. I found that things were not the way I had assumed them to be. Maybe Shamima Begum is now discovering this same thing. True or not, how could she demonstrate a loyalty to the U. K.?

A new study finds that there is no significant difference in COVID-19 viral load between vaccinated ...

OK. Are the breakthrough cases as large as the original Covid infection cases? If not there is still plenty of reason to be vaccinated.

We know our dogs have extraordinary senses…but can they sense the presence of a ghost?

DenoPenno comments on Sep 30, 2021:

I do not believe in ghosts. Once when I was religious I did believe but now the subject is ridiculous to me. This does not mean that there are things we do not see or sense and that dogs do see and sense. Anyone who has been around dogs know they sense things in a different way than we do, and are aware of things we are not. Is this paranormal activity? That might just be words that we use. Animals do see and hear things we do not and this might get into why dogs have always been our best friends.
