I have been single for 50 years, have been on the Internet and dating sites for 25 years and I learned early on how scammers work. I typed and saved a text file and simply copy and paste it in any chat when someone asks for money. If you abide by this rule, you will never get scammed. Feel free to copy and use it if you like. "I have one strict rule when I am on the Internet. I will NEVER, under ANY circumstances, send money or gifts to ANYONE for ANY REASON".

This question is more aimed at anti-theists, why do you take that sort of position of anti-theism?

jlynn37 comments on Jan 10, 2019:

Simple answer. Because of the harm religion and religious people cause.

What is love

jlynn37 comments on Jan 17, 2019:

There is a difference in "loving" someone and being "in love" with someone. I have been "in love" (or at least I thought I was) more than once and it is a two edged sword that can cut you to pieces with both sides. Loving someone can bring you joy and/or disappointment, but it does not cut you to the quick and hurt, harm or damage you.

They are only interested in maintaining power at any cost and the evangelical wing (which is the dominant power at this time) only interested in turning 'merca into their particular form of theocracy.

jlynn37 comments on Feb 6, 2019:

In my personal opinion, for what it's worth, if religion is used in any manner or matter regarding any positive affects/effects it has on anyone's life, it is nothing more than a placebo effect. As an A-theist it has to be that since religions and gods are nothing more than myths and fairy tales.

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.” Joseph Goebbels quote

jlynn37 comments on Jul 3, 2019:

I have been online and on various dating sites for over 25 years. I am NOT looking for a life partner and am here for friends only and to see what can happen within that friendship and nothing more. I have met many women online and have made friends with several through the years and we have enjoyed what we could share together within that friendship. I ask for nothing more and I expect nothing more. My experience on dating sites has been good for me and I believe it has been good for those who have chosen to be friends and enjoy what we can share together within our friendship. Some have been sexual and some have been platonic but all have been a good and enjoyable experience. Life is brief and unpredictable, embrace it now while you have the privilege and opportunity to do so. I wish everyone here and on dating sites well and success in finding what they are searching for online and in their lives.

Religious indoctrination in public schools.

How women are indoctrinated from birth, strictly as a control means, with the constant bombardment that sex is "nasty", "dirty", "filthy", "slutty", "guttery", "dangerous", "unhealthy" has to lead to many women having such a distorted view of sex and it's necessary and essential place in the human condition is appalling to say the least. A good and proper sex education is essential for both males and females to function properly in any and all societies. The penis and vagina were created by nature and evolved to have a purpose and to be used, both for input activity and output activity.

It is my opinion that when you die you will know nothing as you will be dead. Your son lived with you for a period of time, you built memories together and now those memories are there for you to relive anytime you choose. My daughter died 15 years ago and I think of her often and always with a smile remembering her and the time we had together. In situations like this I am often reminded of the song "The Dance": I could have missed the pain, but I would have had to miss the dance, and the dance is what matters.
