Freedompath comments on Jul 12, 2018:
Wish that I lived close! Good topic for discussion. My feeling is, that even when people leave ‘the church,’ they are not free of religion yet! That stuff has been so ground into our psyche...it takes time to get clear on ‘what is what,’ about religion and what it takes to be a good ...
Freedompath replies on Jul 12, 2018:
@bbyrd009 ...the people who created our Constitution thought we could and should be separate...and then the religious people acquired lots of money and took their preaching to the airways (got more money), and the Republican Party hitched their wagon to the religious zealots! Because, they wanted to ‘win,’ so bad they were willing to sell their souls! That is where we are today! Soulless...with a highly religious government! I can only hope the rest of us can ‘get out alive!’

Freedompath replies on Jul 11, 2018:
@Crimson67 my belief about Karma, differs from the way that you mean, ‘karma.’ (I think). What you give out comes back to you, because it is a ‘state of consciousness.’ Our consciousness works in both direction...it draws in to us and sends out from us...from the same beliefs that we hold in our own consciousness!

I feel you. I'm about to spend the next 5 days with my mom who is also very religious. I would just advise staying away from the topic as much as possible. If she sneaks something in - try to not acknowledge it and hope she gets the hint.
Freedompath replies on Jul 10, 2018:
@Mariv357 I have a suggestion...ask your mom about her childhood...I learned too late to ask my parents about their growing up years! And, sometimes I will tell things to my children about my early years and they will express surprise...at not knowing!

@VAL3941 since I read this whole thread and got to here...I feel sad that a new person’s posting got to the point, that you would make such a statement as you did here!

@Ladislaver speaking for myself, I do my best trying to read between the lines, but sometimes I miss the point! Since I became a non-believer in the last 15-20 yrs...I have found ‘them’ to be mostly like other people..,a mixed bag! I try and understand where each person is coming from and state what I mean as clearly as possible...and even that sometimes gets chewed up! I don’t think that you will find this site, ‘like living in a vacuum!’ I sure didn’t! But what I am learning is a better understanding on how I relate to all people! I guess if you need something more specific...you will need to keep looking! Good luck...

I am one of those individuals, who is not breaking down anyone’s poem...my reaction is from an emotional reaction as I read a poem! Everyone is free to ‘read’ anyway they choose! In fact your original response made sense and I took that into account, but the second one sounds like you expect all people to ‘operate’ as you do...well, good luck with that!

Matter-of-fact, we could be the majority, by counting! The more I write here the madder I feel...The Republicans want totally control of everything and bend everything in the direction of the ‘religious right!’ This is beginning to look like the Crusades...117 years it was!

That is a valid point...but, after reading all that information about how Russia has worked with the algorithms, to destabilize different countries in the last few years, I do not trust them, at all! Not to mention, how they assassinate people who disagree or leave Russia. Putin is not my kind of man...much more dangerous than trump! And that is saying a lot! Putin, has no interest in anything but, pure power and that makes him more dangerous! He will get rid of his associates (friends)..in the name of power!

@dkp93 ...I will never believe it is only one class...that is only where the focus is at the moment! Humanity is made up of people, not colors...it is gays, LGBT and just anybody having sex outside of a ‘Christian Union,’ ...that is the short lost, it does not stop there, because it is a ‘state of consciousness!’ A state of compartmentalizated mind! They can hurt other people, because they can put it in the place in their mind, where it is justified!
A very sad thing indeed

@Beach_slim I never at any point did I say I was ‘scared’ of poverty...as my main focus is ‘human dignity’ in whatever physical state a person is in! AND...I stated clearly, that I have gained skills from that provety that will sustain me! I manage money well and it is the same way that I manage my life...well! In my lifetime (which is not promoted now), I have studied many disciplines and involved myself in many of them. And, I did learn that a person, cannot see in someone else, what he does not hold in his own nature! That is an impossibility! You seem to have an ‘outward’ focus and have not a clue about your own true nature! If you did, you would come from that place and it would be authenticly what you need...not telling others what they need, especially owing that you have little information to go on, about the other person! Guess work about human behavior can be dangerous!

@Beach_slim I am not interested in getting into a currency discussion. I think that you are deflecting...if you are trying to inject fear here...I came from poverty! I have many skills from that up-bringing, that will be useful! I wonder what your concept of living ‘high on the hog,’ is? You must be watching too much tv...as I don’t know people who live ‘high off the hog!’ They are not in my circle! I accept your point of view, it just would not support my nature for the betterment of myself or my community! If it supports you, that is what matters here.

@Beach_slim the poor here have not been living high on the hog! The middle class are just getting by...you seem to completely disregard what it cost to live in this country! You cannot own a car without insurance, tags, taxes, in order to get to work as public transportation is limited outside big cities! My friend in Vietnam, tells me, they might eat your cat or dog, there! What on earth does this prove about living in America? As for the currency...we are not discussing that matter! If you focus and work one idea to a final conclusion you will learn more. I cannot solve the worlds problems, and I take on one thing at the time...here! I suggest that you not work in Venezuela, because it seems beyond you...

@Beach_slim we do not have the government nor economy of Venezuela? Why would you use that as a comparison for this country? My Dr’s sister-in-law came from Sweden where the tax was near 48% at that time, he ask her if she would prefer to be taxed less and she said no! That they want the elderly cared for and do not want people living on the streets! So we can go around the world and find all kinds of systems! But, I live here and for 78 years and also my g-grandmothers were Cherokee, so I have many roots here! You have a lot to learn yet...especially about putting labels on someone you know nothing about and seem to misunderstand the meaning of ‘entitlement mindset!’ I care for people less fortunate than I am...if it was a level playing field for people...then all would be equal...it has never been equal because life is not perfect nor equal! I was a nurse, I know stuff, that you will probably never learn and so I have experienced real people in their real life! Keep your wealth and kindness for yourself, because it looks like you are gonna need it!

@Beach_slim ...are you aware of how many people live in this country that need to support themselves and maybe even have a few children to support as well? Are you aware of how many high paying jobs there are? Those are held by older workers, which at least have some asset accumulation or highly educated new workers! How can people starting out live on less than $25-30,000 a year? They do not ask you how much you make, when paying for utilities! The auto mechanic does not ask and the insurance people don’t ask...you pay the same as the rich person. Medical care is not based on your income and most small businesses do not cover health insurance! One office visit now would cripple the low income budget! Small businesses can’t afford health ins for employees! So what would you suggest that the lower income people do...live at home or off their relatives or live homeless? It sounds like you are ok, with people who live ‘without money at all’ which is not my idea of how to support people in this country with food and shelter! Sure there are a few people who live close to the grid, but they are so few and far-in-between, you could not put them on a pie chart! They are an anomaly...you can’t support a population of people in this country in that manner! Your focus is very narrow ...explore the country and ck out how the lower income live. I myself...care nothing for fancy cars, jewelry, wear thrift store clothes, careful with utility consumption and live in RV and eat simple! But, I do not expect to live like a ‘yard dog’...in a country with enormous wealth! No one should...that is the height of greed!

I consider myself to be an agnostic, simply because I don’t write anything in stone and so if it was proven in some future time that god existed...I would have to accept facts! But, at this moment in time there is no rational reason to believe in a god! Of note here, I have suddenly come to think...
Freedompath replies on Jul 1, 2018:
@GodlessBastard a foot note...in a younger day, I would quote statistics and people studying specific matters...but in these latter years, I look at the ‘big picture’ combining accumulated information obtained in my life time! So I really would not be a person that you could use all your figures on! That is not where I am in life! I don’t pour information into my brain...I hear it, then I will watch for other connecting information and eventually I will determine MY OWN idea on the matter! It seems to work as well as what other people are doing, who may come to a different conclusion, ...so sometimes, I measure and cut the board to short...’you win a few and you loose a few!’
