Has anyone ever analyzed their dreams and if so, what were the benefits?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

Sex

Do you cry when you have to put your suffering pet to sleep.

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

Famous people

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

Mohammed Ali was the most famous. Very nice man. I met and done shows with several famous and semi-famous musicians. Some were very engaging and fun to be around, some were shallow and self absorbed. They were not much different than everybody else. Not Ali though, he was special.

What's your inspiration?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

I strive for mediocrity. Much less pressure.

Something that’s always kinda bugged me is when I was talking to a suicidal friend of mine who was...

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

Just like you really don't believe, some people really do believe. She probably thought she was helping. My sister-in-law is a nonbeliever and her mother was a devout Catholic. She was really upset with her mother because of her mother's concern that she and a couple of her siblings did not attend mass anymore. I explained to her that her mother's fear was based on her belief that in the afterlife she would never see her children again. It was a real fear. Rational or not it was real for her. My sister-in-law understood and her resentment went away.

I write a monthly arts column for a local publication.

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

She was as good as it gets.

Nah!

Is there such a thing as an Atheist Minister?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

As a nonbeliever, I don't believe that position exists.

Tough question here! Why are so many people absolutely certain the bible has NO truth in it if they ...

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

The book is not a best seller for its presentation of history of which very little is verifiable. It is a book put together to market religious doctrine. Toilet paper would be the best use for most of it's pages.

I am still a huge Kathy Griffin fan.

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

I like her a lot. I imagine her live shows still do very well. She has a very loyal following.

Is there something to psychedelics?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

You're next, lol

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

If I wasn't nearly 70 this would really be funny.

Anyone a karaoke fan?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

As a musician I can't listen to it. It physically hurts to listen to people who think they can sing. On the other hand I understand that this may be the only chance folks get a chance to perform in front of an audience. So go for it.

Jesus doesn't save. This is a FB link.

What makes a relationship last?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

You asked two questions. What makes a relationship last and what makes them strong long-term? Long lasting relationships happen for many reasons, children, fear of being alone, financial reasons, fear of starting over, and some I'm sure I can't think of. I believe strong long-term relationships are based on being best friends.

Co-worker

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

I don't believe you are a hypocrite. My Grandmother was a woman of faith, but she walked the walk. She didn't judge people, I never heard her say a bad word about anyone, and she never pushed her beliefs on anyone. There are good Christians just like there are bad nonbelievers.

To all the strong women out there, we are ALL WonderWoman

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

No you're not, anymore than we are all Supermen! There are women who aren't bright, watch Fox news. There are men who aren't bright, again watch Fox news. Human beings can be terrible people no matter the gender.

The Lovely Comments Republican Atheists Receives from Left Leaning Atheists - YouTube

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

It's the hypocrisy! How can you be a Republican, who's platform now embraces the Christian right and their policies, and a nonbeliever. That's not an oxymoron, it's just a moron.

What are you looking for?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

I don't and never have had a laundry list of requirements. You meet someone and something is there or it's not. It ain't that complicated.

Can physical attraction truly be unnecessary in finding a potential relationship?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

I don't buy it either. It isn't the only thing, but it is part of the equation. I think people who say that it isn't important are trying to impress the rest of us they are somehow deeper than the rest of us. BULLSHIT.

What do you consider a "long term" relationship?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

A third date.

What two questions would you ask to get the most information about who a person truly is?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

Would you like to go out with me? If the answer is yes I know they have some serious self esteem issues and walk away. So I don't actually have a 2nd question.

What is one truth you have learned that you wish you had never found out?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

That racism was not just a southern thing.

Am I crazy for wanting to take a relationship super slow and let it become something wonderful ...

Sticks48 comments on Mar 7, 2018:

Unless your relationship is with an inflatable doll, it's all organic fast or slow.

Could you be with someone that is sort of religious, let’s say an apologist?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 7, 2018:

Sure, otherwise I'd be a virgin!

The moment you knew your relationship was over, though you played it out to the end?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 7, 2018:

My experience is folks generally play it out well past the end.

Why are there not more atheist agnostic dateable people who live near me.

Sticks48 comments on Mar 7, 2018:

Sounds to me you answered your own question in the second sentence of your post.

Does everyone need to possess someone? Can't love be simple? Can't we just be happy and safe?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 7, 2018:

No one should possess anyone and no, romantic love can't be simple. I could be wrong but I have never experienced simplicity in dealing with relationships.

Polyamory

Sticks48 comments on Mar 7, 2018:

I have enough trouble figuring out what one woman wants.

Why?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 7, 2018:

I have no life and a lot of time on my hands.

You struggle I struggle how bout we get know each other and struggle together.

Sticks48 comments on Mar 7, 2018:

I have never met a together person. If you know one please send me a picture, I would love to see what one looks like.

Would you date someone who was overweight?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 7, 2018:

Would and have, along with skinny, average, short, tall, Asian, Hispanic, and Caucasian. No African American women only because of a lack of opportunity. I have never been drawn to a particular type of woman physically. For me attraction is a combination of things.

Trump Fans In D.C. Are Whining That No One Wants To Date Them

I know this subject can get deep and I'm sure it's been presented many times but my questions is: Is...

Sticks48 comments on Mar 7, 2018:

I'm against the death penalty only because I know we have executed scores of innocent people. If our justice system was based on getting to the truth it would be different, but it is not. It is about winning and losing. Having said that if you have irrefutable proof of guilt, not a bunch of circumstantial evidence I don't have a real problem with it.

Would life be easier if their was a god?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 7, 2018:

Do your Christian friends or acquaintances lives seem easier to you?

How important is sexual chemistry in a relationship?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 7, 2018:

REALLY?

Life on other planets: if life on other planets is found--especially if that life is more advanced ...

Sticks48 comments on Mar 7, 2018:

I think there is life on this planet more intelligent than humans especially in the way they treat their own species. The first thing Christians will do when encountering beings unlike themselves is kill them. They have no desire to die for their beliefs, but jump on the chance to kill for those beliefs. Jesus would be proud.

If applicable, how did you quit smoking?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 7, 2018:

I had to get to the point where I really wanted to quit. I quit a couple of times before, but after a couple of years I started up again. I quit cold turkey all three times the last one took. It's been 17 yrs.

Will you go out with me?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 7, 2018:

If I lived in Houston I would ask you out. As far as activities go since I haven't spent time In Houston a long time, I would have to follow your lead. I would feel uncomfortable describing 3 wonderful things about me since I am some what biased.

Are you a night owl, a morning person, or both?

Sticks48 comments on Mar 7, 2018:

Night Owl. That was one reason playing music for a living instead of a hobby was appealing. Also the dimmer the light the better I look. In complete darkness I am damn near handsome.
