It seems to me that religions selling the promise an afterlife should be illegal.
DavidLaDeau comments on Jan 25, 2020:
"Do you want to live forever" was once asked of me. There is a seriouis problem with this. It must be demonstrated that there is an after life to start, which can not be done so the premise is fallacious. Someone or something must be demonstrated to have lived forever in order to prove it ...

@JeffMesser No it is a judgement. You are a pussy. It is no different than you coming to the conclusion I am schmuck, proving once again you are not bright.

Sticks48 replies on Jan 26, 2020:
@MarkiusMahamius If I block someone it is because they have certain points of view I cannot tolerate and I know they have nothing of interest to say for me. It also cuts down on the number of posts and alerts I have to wade through.

@JeffMesser You just called ms a name. You need to quit being a hypocrite. I am not calling you names. If you were tall and I saw you I would say you are tall. If you said something intelligent, and I said you were intelligent, you would not accuse me of name calling, but that is what it would be. We make it through life by making judgements and coming to conclusions on a daily basis. This is all I am doing. We know we are not going to agree. I don't care for you and you don't care for me, and that is okay.

@MarkiusMahamius There is a choice of "forever" when blocking, which I always use. It is probably just a glitch. They are always playing with this thing and stuff does happen. it has happened on occasion where one would show up, but lately it is more of them at once. I have reblocked. I will see if that works.

@of-the-mountain Some cities have already said they will ignore changes he wants to make in the EPA rules and laws. Just as auto manufactures are ignoring his proposed changes. They know these changes will not be permanent and they are not going to spend the money to change their designs only to have them reversed in the near future. This would not help their bottom line, and that is what matters.

@oraldictation I could not care less about you. You are not wealthy. The information is there it has been published here and elsewhere. The minimum wage was a $1.60 an hour. A person could actually live on that in most places. Had the minimum wage kept up with inflation it would be somewhere between $12 and $20 an hour depending on how they figure inflation. Here is a list of some of the corporations that paid no taxes. Amazon. Chevron, Delta Airlines, Eli Lilly, General Motors, Gannett, Goodyear, Halliburton, IBM, Jetblue, Principal Financial, US Steel, Whirlpool, and some fifty more. As I said that doesn't include the ones who paid very little. The information is there. Evidently you are too lazy to look up the information or just don't want to know. You give me your opinion I give you facts. So unless you have something besides your opinion. you really have nothing to say as far as I can tell.

@oraldictation I didn't put you anywhere. The wealthy do not pay enough in taxes. When talking wealth, I am talking 500 million and above.

The list did not include corporations which paid very little in taxes, but I am sure this is not a short list either.

@oraldictation Statrisistics back me up. No one of wealth is paying enough in taxes. That is fact. I didn't say all, but there was a list published of those who paid nothing and it is made up of companies like Amazon. The economy is not great. The economy is not even good. When the middle class down struggles the economy is not great. Hence higher crime rate. You sound like someone who is completely out of touch with reality. You should do something about that.

Citronella...I am just curious about people who make a big deal out of their being introverts. I have known introverts in my life. None of them made a thing about it. My brother was an introvert.

@1EarthLovingGal My best friend had a gun with no safety. My brother, sister-in-law , and I were sitting on the couch about five feet from him when he was showing it to us. He dropped it, it went off, shooting him in the ankle. It could have hit anyone of us. This happened in Lawton, where I grew up. You be very careful.
Sorry or not?

Oh yes. You have to be who you are. I may not always like who I am, but that's okay too.

@IrishTxJudy I know exactly what you mean. The old two sides of the coin deal.
Cream or sugar
Sticks48 comments on Jan 17, 2020:
Black only. Anything but Starbucks. There is a reason they put ice cream, whipping cream, bananas, cherries, and whatever else they find in the kitchen to throw in their coffee. To make coffee taste that bad they must filter it through an old sock with the foot still in it..
Sticks48 replies on Jan 18, 2020:
@MoonGazer I am not a coffee snob. I am not that picky, but that was the worst cup of coffee I have ever purchased. I was very surprised given this is what they do. Now that you mention it, it did taste burnt.
It's the sign of the times.
Bobbyzen comments on Jan 18, 2020:
Some of these seem intuitive untrue, others possibly made up. It would be amazing to see the actual sources for these quotes.

Which ones do you doubt are real. They sound like the times I grew up in and i am just a little older than you.

Why are CONservatives so afraid of equality????
Sticks48 replies on Jan 18, 2020:
I understand why some men are against it. What I don't understand is the number of women who are against it if for no other reason than equal pay. The one thing that affects their everyday lives.
Here we go.
Summer72 comments on Jan 18, 2020:
The house should jump on this! If conservatives and Trump rally against it, then, maybe some women that are brainwashed in Trump's camp, will see the light and come over to left.

Sticks48 replies on Jan 18, 2020:
@AnneWimsey I'm not talking about the money. I'm talking about if the audience isn't into what you are doing it is the hardest job in show business. In a band you can just get into the music. Even a solo artist at can get into the music. Granted it is harder if their is no one to share it with. If you are a comic and they aren't really laughing it is hard to just get into the joke. It takes stones to do that.
This was on Facebook. I agree completely.

The problem is people see introverts as those that need fixing because apparently there’s something wrong with us because we prefer quiet.

@IrishTxJudy Then don't talk about it so much. the only people here who bring it up are the introverts themselves. Like the rest of us you are not special. Just be. It ain't that complicated. Cantankerous is so much better than whiny. Peace out. :)

@HumanistA There are plenty of folks who don't like me because l am an extrovert and because I am over opinionated and l could not care less. Be who you are. Why do you care what these people think? It sounds like you are not really comfortable with who you are if you find it necessary to defend who you are. If one is comfortable with being introverted, why bring it up at all. Just be.
What about believing even if you know it is not true?
Sticks48 comments on Jan 17, 2020:
I really don't care what people believe. If it helps them get through the rough spots in life, that is fine by me. What l don't like is when those beliefs affect our laws and the rules of our society.
Sticks48 replies on Jan 17, 2020:
@Gwendolyn2018 I agree. My fraternal grandmother was religious. I am pretty sure her faith grew out of the fact that my grandfather and my father, her only child, made it through WWll. She never judged people. She never tried to persuade us to join her in that faith. She really walked the walk, and l always respected her for that.

Sticks48 replies on Jan 17, 2020:
@RoboGraham But they also get old and out of touch with the country. When the we boomers are gone the Millenials will be the largest voting block ( They are pretty close to equal right now, I believe ), and they appear to be pretty liberal. They will be dealing with an old conservative court which will be, and I think is at present, out of step with the country. That does not bode well for the country as I look down the road.

@K9Kohle789 I grew up in politics and have never voted for a republican. Even if it was a Democrat I didn't really care for, they were the lesser of the two evils. the republican platform never includes anything for the "have nots". The "haves" don't need help or assistance. You can't have capitalism without having the "have nots". A government that doesn't take care of all of its people is less than a good government.
