I really need to talk to fellow liberal Muslims or Ex-Muslims about some of their coping mechanisms.
Jolanta comments on Jun 1, 2019:
Why would you be living a double life? Just don't talk about religion, don't say how wrong they are. When asked to come to the mosque say no thank you. Don't ram it into their throats. Just smile and say you are ok and hope they are too.
Jolanta replies on Jun 3, 2019:
@CK-One I have friends that are Muslims and I can tell you that nobody there tells anybody else how many times to pray or how often they need to go to the mosque. Only fantastics do that in every religion

Jolanta replies on May 10, 2019:
@Piratefish The real threat doesn't come from white christian males. Tell it to al the school shootings that happen on a almost weekly basis in the US. How about the recent shooting at the mosque in New Zealand by a Australian Christian male. Where do you get your data from. It is not like it is not the white Christian males that don't do the shootings, they do. Why are you talking about liberal agenda in a derogatory fashion by the way. Do you think that I or people who are liberal should be ashamed of it in any kind of way. You need to look into what it really means for everyone.
As a Christian, I can remember mocking Islam and thinking how stupid the religion was.

I was at a popular outdoor mall in Los Angeles years ago – a place where many take advantage of its use as a public square – and witnessed a chanting, dancing, tambourine-beating group of Hare Krishnas encountering a dour group of sign-toting, besuited Christian soldiers. The Krishnas danced and...

@thinktwice I don't know but don't they let out the females Krishnas in the US. We see them here in Australia sometimes out and about, usually with children in tow.

I have red the Bible cover to cover and also the Quran, and I can tell you that the Bible is ten times more violent then the Quran. It is only fanatics that distort what is written in both books and use it for their own power. By the way both Muslims and Christians believe in the same God as do ...
Jolanta replies on May 10, 2019:
@David_Cooper The problems with the fanatics is that they take only "bits" that suit their agenda and disregard the rest.
When is it okay to say "I love you"?
Jolanta comments on May 8, 2019:
That depends. It is only words and what do they actually mean. So many people say I love you but in the next breath call you horrible names.
Jolanta replies on May 8, 2019:
@Wangobango3 Just look at all those domestic violence incidences. In one breath they tell you the love you and in another they hit you and call you names.

@PBuck0145 I shall start with this: President Abraham Lincoln was assassinated by John Wilkes Booth at Ford's Theatre in Washington D.C. Booth's co-conspirators were to launch simultaneous attacks on Vice President Andrew Johnson and Secretary of State William H. Seward, but Seward's attacker failed to kill him and Johnson's lost his nerve. Booth was killed after a 12-day manhunt, and several of his co-conspirators were later arrested and executed. Terrorism done by good American Christians, and there are many more.

@Captain_Feelgood, @racocn8 Just look at what they vote for. Any one of them not propping up big business, any one of them wanting what is best for all the Americans? Any one of them who don't take money from Wall Street? Name the one's who don't on one hand.

Jolanta replies on May 6, 2019:
I can assure you that the greater majority that want to change laws in the country they move to are minimal. Media and politicians want us to believe that it is not so. Fanatics are in every religion and country, just look at the religious nutters in the US who are not Muslims. If you look at how many people die in terrorist attacs in the US you will see that most of those are perpetrated by white right wing young men.
What heaven in your wildest fantasies, could you imagine going to among all Religion's.
Jolanta comments on May 2, 2019:
Mormons are not the only ones who believe that they will get virgins/young women when they are dead. I am always amazed that it is only ever men who seem to get this privilege. That is not on.

Why would any modern woman want to follow that religion.
Shouldbefishing comments on May 1, 2019:
The woman holding that sign either needs to hold it lower or get a paper sack over her head. Brings to mind that George Carlin bit when he said "Why is it that most of the women that are against abortion are women you wouldn't want to fuck in the first place?".
Jolanta replies on May 2, 2019:
@1EarthLovingGal I too had a closer look and I do think it is a man, however what you say about women is right. Women should sand by women, the ones who do not don't have any self respect.

Jolanta replies on May 2, 2019:
@MissKathleen Personally I think that there are far too many lawsuits going on in the US. Every little shitting thing that should be common sense is a taken to court. If the ceremony has already been then what does a law suite achieve for the participants. Things work themselves out as time goes by. If people are aware what is likely to happen, why don't they object before it happens, and take it from there.
Happiness is not defined by our wealth or our status, but by how we choose to live our lives.
Fretherne1 comments on Apr 30, 2019:
The bluebird of happiness Is forever out of reach Some seek it in wild places Some while lying on a beach Look for it in the future Forget it in the past And if you ever find it Just hope that it'll last JW2019

Even if it last for a brief time. I'll take it.
Happiness is not defined by our wealth or our status, but by how we choose to live our lives.
Matias comments on Apr 30, 2019:
When somebody chooses to be wealthy and having high status, the probability that he/she is happy is much higher than if he/she chose to be a poor , socially isolated weirdo
Jolanta replies on May 1, 2019:
Not everybody who is poor is a socially isolated weirdo. Apparently there has been study done on eccentric people and they suppose to be more happy then your average Joe or Joanne.
Happiness is not defined by our wealth or our status, but by how we choose to live our lives.
Marionville comments on Apr 30, 2019:
Absolutely true. We do not usually choose to be poor, however, and this can impact on our ability to feel happiness.
Jolanta replies on May 1, 2019:
@Athena I am not sure that they are the happiest. I have been to some very poor countries and yes they do smile but that doesn't mean that they are happy. If your stomach is growling and you don't know how to pay your rent or feed your children I find it difficult to think that one would be happy.
