Taken in 2015 just before all my hair was shaved off for charity. The girls at work thought it would be a terrific hoot to have me with pink hair, I thought it may as well be a mohawk if we're going all in :-)

Would You Partake?
ipdg77 comments on Mar 10, 2018:
I have done, when I was young we didn't have much money and horse meat was the cheapest. I never knew the difference when it was in a stew. I didn't grow hoofs (or is that hooves) and I don't canter but I can be a bit of a neigh sayer lol
I looked up how many groups I have joined on this site.

God vs santa clause?
ipdg77 comments on Mar 10, 2018:
I talk to my 11 year old honestly, she knows I'm an atheist but was brought up a Catholic so I can give her both sides of the argument. I just tell her to question everything and develope her critical thinking. If she's taught how to think she'll be ok and come to the same conclusion as me. I won't impose atheism on her or that would make me no better than those I oppose.

Moment of Silence or Saying Grace

Would you avoid naming your child a name with religious connotations?
ipdg77 comments on Mar 9, 2018:
My name's Ian, Scottish for John who 'wrote' a gospel and was a saint, my second name is Patrick, patron saint of Ireland, my third (confirmation name) is Declan, also an Irish saint and the first three letters of my surname spell 'God' There's not point in me making a stand over a religious name! lol

How important is sexual chemistry in a relationship?
ipdg77 comments on Mar 7, 2018:
Is it not just an extension of the relationship chemistry, assuming the relationship developes a physical aspect? I can have, albeit many moons ago, great sex with someone I don't love but sex with someone you love is on a totally different level.

Will you go out with me?
ipdg77 comments on Mar 7, 2018:
Nice question :-) Yes of course I would, the mileage might cause a few issues though, but in the interest of multicultural exploration :-) If I came to you it's your call, if you came to me I think somewhere to have a dinner (you deserve to be fed after the distance you've come) and chat on the seafront, and as I live on a small island there's a lot of seasfront :-) We also have a Cycle the Wight festival so come then and bring your bike.

What would you have had your parents change in raising you?
ipdg77 comments on Mar 6, 2018:
I've come to realise I was fortunate in my upbringing, both my parents had a faith of sorts but it was never imposed on me or my brother. They were caring, loving and supportive and I hope I'm the same with mine. It's such a shame that I appear to have been in a minority
Would you accept a job or position within a company that was built around religious beliefs?

No, not without being a rampaging hypocrit lol
If you are atheist, what information led you to this?
ipdg77 comments on Mar 6, 2018:
The whole Christian thing never made sense and the more I looked into it the less it made. It just never stood up under any scrutiny.
Fear of Hell
ipdg77 comments on Mar 6, 2018:
I've never had a fear of hell, even from a very young age I always felt nobody knew what happened after death. I'm not afraid of death either, but a little irritated by the thought of it, I know I'll have stuff I still wanted to do :-)

Why?
ipdg77 comments on Mar 5, 2018:
The Agnostic.com site came up on my facebook feed, not sure why though, but thought like minded people might be interesting. The dating aspect didn't really mean much as I don't have any confidence in dating sites.
Does where you live have any regional peculiarities that confuse visitors?

Do you believe in karma? reincarnation??
ipdg77 comments on Mar 4, 2018:
I think Karma is essentially what goes around comes around, giving out the positive, seeing the positive in what comes back, probably really just a frame of mind. I like to think/hope that what's accrued in terms of karma, to use your words, isn't just wasted but have no way of knowing what comes next. And reincarnation...never seen anything convincing to suggest it's real.
Anybody else swayed by the magic of the full moon?
ipdg77 comments on Mar 4, 2018:
I love the moon, taking a photo yourself where you can see the relief of the craters is brilliant, it's akin to a child-like fascination. But am I affected by it in terms of mood, skin fit and howling....not that I'm aware.
Acupuncture. Any thoughts about it?
ipdg77 comments on Mar 4, 2018:
I can only speak from personal experience. About 25 years ago I was due to go skiing and about two weeks prior to going I slipped over on a wet floor and hurt my back to such an extent I could barely walk and was in considerable pain. I was fairly certain that the skiing holiday was gone as I had a long history of back problems and knew that conventional methods of rehab wouldn't provide a swift enough improvement. For what ever reason I decided to go to an acupuncture clinic, at the very least it was worth a try, the worse that would happen is that it wouldn't work. To cut a long story short I had three sessions, it involves the needles, suction pads and drinking some revolting brown liquid I had to stew up from wood bark, seeds and other plant things. Two weeks later I went skiing and I've never had a problem with my back since. Coincidence? Maybe, but it could also be that acupuncture realigned or stimulated something that provided a long term resolution. I would say that it appears to be as genuine as westerrn medicine but like with anything you can get bad practitioners and I don't put it anywhere close to fortune tellers, astrology and juju men.
Yeah!! I just reached level 4!! I'm gonna go celebrate now! Any suggestions?

Did anyone else's state put the flags at half mast for Billy Graham?

When you see a post that reads 'Adult Content', what comes to mind?
ipdg77 comments on Mar 3, 2018:
Talking of adult content. I do a daily post on my works Facebook page, one of the bits is a 'Today Is.....' and I use a variety of websites to pick one. I put Checkiday in a search but had it on images, not very far down the page was a picture of some man on man cock action! What on earth did that have to do with Checkiday?
Does anyone here
ipdg77 comments on Mar 3, 2018:
