"Has Evangelical Christianity Become Sociopathic?"

Marine comments on Nov 15, 2017:

There isn't any difference either you accept their beliefs or go to hell. That has been the message of all religions in some manner. Religion is a business made of power to subjugate others. At this time the evangelicals are using their power to invoke their way of thinking on the rest of society. The separation of church and state is being challenged. They are as cruel as others have been in the oast.

Humor seems to be lacking on this site except for the group which likes jokes.

Marine comments on Jan 31, 2019:

Humor is a very difficult word to understand. There are religious ,ethnic , sarcastic,political and mundane forms of humor. Anyone of these can be taken the wrong way by some , laughed at by some or just fall flat by others. Used carefully satire can be used effectively to portray what may be funny to some and an insult to others and the current president is a good example. However humor also can be used to make light of that which is difficult to endure when used properly. The problem is determining where the line exists. All that being said a little more humor would be a good thing on this site.

Athiest and death

Marine comments on Oct 28, 2017:

One should donate their body for scientific or medical purposes and request that their ashes be spread at a particular place. This provides me comfort in that I know my body will be put to good use plus I know that my children would not go against my wishes for disposal. As for the death of others it depends upon their relationship to me. Fortunately my children and my wife are in agreement with my thinking and we will all grieve in our own way.We have decided to live our lives day by day and take the pleasures while they are available.As for death , it is coming some day and I just hope I have the last say in when I die.

Has the time come to destroy the republican party?

Marine comments on Oct 19, 2018:

The republican party is becoming the party of the white supremacists and other conspiracy nuts based upon those who are running for office and the statements they are making. One of those running for senate stated women who have an abortion should be put to death, birth control is a sin and shouldn't be allowed, women who are raped should just buck up and get over it. The evangelicals support this shit and have taken over the party as a voting block. They are without a doubt the party of the wealthy and are out to maximize their wealth at any cost.They look upon the working class as their new slave market and will provide them with only that which they can get away with. They have broken the union movement by shipping jobs overseas and do not care if the home market cannot afford to purchase anything as they will ship overseas.It is way passed the time for change.If something is not done soon it will result in another revolution.

Is it not time to bring back some type of mental hospital?

Marine comments on May 19, 2018:

I firmly believe that the decision to eliminate the mental hospital has been a disgrace for the mentally ill and the general community. The old mental hospitals were a crime in the way they treated the ill. However the alternative has been worse as many of the ill now are in prisons(estimate that 36% are mentally ill) which are even worse.Many in prisons are so bad they are kept in solitary confinement. Mentally ill have no place to go. I as a parent cannot even commit a child as the laws stand unless I have the child arrested.

Marine comments on Oct 20, 2017:

Common sense is a great way to start.Do you wish to hurt anyone ? if not you have started.When you do things you must ask how would I want the results. Don't like to use the phrase but do to others as you would have them do to you. Next just enjoy nature.Get a pet.Just marvel in the things that happen around you. It is much easier to enjoy life when you do not have guilt of fear from god. You do need to follow your conscience and the path will be clear.
