Does anyone else work for/with a religious organization?

How did you get the job with a religous organization?

Utopia?

HippieChick58 comments on Jul 21, 2018:
No, because if a woman has a "cavernous vagina" it means she's been pushing lots of tiny people out of her vagina and she's going to need a minivan or a bus to transport all of them. If she's driving a tiny car, no kids, still tight.
HippieChick58 replies on Jul 22, 2018:
@CaledonianWolf I never commented on size of penis vs size of car. My experience as a woman is that I choose cars for practical reasons, number of kids, places kids had to go, and stuff that had to be hauled along with kids. Why men choose cars is much more complicated as far as I can tell. If they are driving their penis or compensation for the penis I can't say and don't really care.
Urgh.

@vmedel For him it was a remote possibility. The actuality is his roots are deep where he lives, not enough chemistry to overcome the obstacles. For me, I've moved far more than the average person but I now have serious roots here. When I moved before the kids were included. Now they all have lives and families of their own, and since I can't move them I have to stay here.

HippieChick58 replies on Jul 21, 2018:
@CaledonianWolf Not necessarily. some sales women drive mini-vans to haul their stock around, some women like mini-vans/suvs to have better view of the road, or they are easier to get in and out of. And lots of factors to whether a woman stays tight after childbirth, including type of delivery. And then there is the issue of how often... Revirginization is a thing.
Social Gender Roles?
jlynn37 comments on Jul 21, 2018:
I read a meme that said; Men must wear a coat and tie at all times and of a particular color dictated by the occasion. As usual, a woman is free to wear anything she deems appropriate for her appearance.
HippieChick58 replies on Jul 21, 2018:
Menswear is so simple. There are some variations, but generally it is far easier for a man to get dressed for anything than it is for a woman. Menswear is generally better constructed, and cheaper than equal quality women's clothing. Women are judged to hell and back for what they wear. Men wear slacks and a shirt every day and no one blinks. Of course lots of this is marketing. I chose to turn off the fashion quest long ago. I wear what I like and don't follow fashion or trends. I am an anomaly, and I'm OK with that.
Social Gender Roles?
jerry99 comments on Jul 21, 2018:
There’s theory and practice. In theory, I think men and women should behave and be treated as equals. In practice, I really, really like women who are easy on the eyes. Of course, both should receive equal pay for equal work, but in my work life I really preferred working with attractive women. ...
HippieChick58 replies on Jul 21, 2018:
And if women felt the same way and only wanted to work with or be with an attractive man would you make the cut? Everyone has different ideas of what attractive is. I think if you are judging a woman solely by physical appearance you're missing out on many women who have lots to offer.

I was born with a gray streak. It dissipated, but started coming back when I was 16. I started coloring my hair by 17. It was completely white by the time I was 30. I stopped coloring a few years ago. It got to be way too much of a pain in my ass, and I just didn't want to keep doing it anymore. ...
HippieChick58 replies on Jul 21, 2018:
One of my brothers was born with a white streak in his dark hair. I haven't seen him in over 30 years, he retired from the Navy and left his family and disappeared. So I don't know if he is all gray now or what. My grandmother went prematurely gray at 24, when the stock market crashed and the Great Depression began. I didn't get her hair color.

It's called a Blizzard where I come from, and Blizzards can stop traffic, trains, airplanes, snow plows, and really mess up life as usual. I love being a snowflake because there is power in numbers and lots of us snowflakes are all riled up! We're gonna dump a blizzard on the Republiturds.

ProudMary comments on Jul 19, 2018:
It's my opinion that the best conceivable weapon a woman can carry is a rotary cutter -- quilters use it to cut multiple layers of fabric at once. It looks something like a pizza wheel but the wheel is razor sharp. I even named mine -- Dick Slicer. I've never had occasion to whip it out but I ...
HippieChick58 replies on Jul 19, 2018:
I have several rotary cutters, I never thought of carrying on with me outside the sewing room. Thanks for the idea! And funny thing, my ex is a Richard, sad I never thought of my rotary cutter that way while we were married.

Marriage or Domestic Partners?
HippieChick58 comments on Jul 18, 2018:
I will never remarry because there would be negative financial repercussions. Why marry and lose money when I can shack up and keep all my benefits and have the benefit of having a partner. Not like we're going to make babies, even then it wouldn't matter. There is no stigma to unmarried parents ...
HippieChick58 replies on Jul 19, 2018:
@Ella I was a Stay At Home Mom for over 25 years, most of the marriage. As such I will draw SS based on Ex's retirement amount. If I remarry I lose that. With his income the amount I get from SS is likely to be equal to or possibly more than I will get based on my earnings.

HippieChick58 replies on Jul 19, 2018:
so 70% of the site ignored you, poor baby. Some of us have day jobs. I know! Not all of us are ladies of leisure or slackers. I don't get on this site while I am at work and by the time I got home I saw your post and decided it was well taken care of. Are you such a precious child that you need attention of everyone? Logistically that is probably not possible. Furthermore, I don't think you understand as much as you think you do. Hang around for a while, participate and you'll learn. This is a great group of people, those not so great drop off pretty fast. Be an encourager, lift others up and you will be lifted up to. Put people down and we'll ignore you, and some won't be so kind as to do that. If you leave it will be no great loss. People come through all the time. However, the site is growing so something here is appealing to the majority. If you choose not to hang around, have a nice lift.

@Sheannutt It was. My oldest wants to get a golden for her family. They just had a baby, I think the golden will wait a while. I'd like another dog one day, but a smaller dog. Chief was great, but I would not be able to lift him now, not that I did much of that 10 years ago.

Do a little work and help us out. Why?
HippieChick58 replies on Jul 18, 2018:
I googled a snyopsis. I read the book a few years ago, it was excellent but not a light weight read. Harari's work situates its account of human history within a framework provided by the natural sciences, particularly evolutionary biology: he sees biology as setting the limits of possibility for human activity, and sees culture as shaping what happens within those bounds. The academic discipline of History is the account of cultural change. Harari surveys the history of humankind from the evolution of archaic human species in the Stone Age up to the twenty-first century, focusing on our own species of human, Homo sapiens. He divides the history of Sapiens into four major parts:[5] The Cognitive Revolution (c. 70,000 BC, when Sapiens evolved imagination). The Agricultural Revolution (c. 10,000 BC, the development of farming). The unification of humankind (the gradual consolidation of human political organisations towards one global empire). The Scientific Revolution (c. 1500 AD, the emergence of objective science). Harari's main argument is that Sapiens came to dominate the world because it is the only animal that can cooperate flexibly in large numbers. He argues that prehistoric Sapiens were a key cause of the extinction of other human species such as the Neanderthals, along with numerous other megafauna. He further argues that the ability of Sapiens to cooperate in large numbers arises from its unique capacity to believe in things existing purely in the imagination, such as gods, nations, money and human rights. Harari claims that all large-scale human cooperation systems – including religions, political structures, trade networks and legal institutions – owe their emergence to Sapiens' distinctive cognitive capacity for fiction.[6] Accordingly, Harari reads money as a system of mutual trust and sees political and economic systems as more or less identical with religions.

HippieChick58 replies on Jul 18, 2018:
@brentan if you don't want a child get a vasectomy. If you do want a child make sure your partner is on board with that. Why would you want a child at your age? I'm so happy my children are grown and responsible adults with babies of their own. Babies are a hell of a lot of work as I'm sure you know. I'm happy to help my kids out, I love being Grammy. But full time, NOPE.

And during dinner the oldest (age 9) turns to me and says "I don't feel good and my tummy itches." She had broken out with chicken pox. I figure we exposed approximately 2000 people to chicken pox that day.
