Back from vacation!! Did you miss me?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 30, 2018:

Thank you for the photos. Yes, America is beautiful. Dilusional, fearful and violent, but beautiful.

Age range for dating

jlynn37 comments on Jun 30, 2018:

I am 80 and I am available for anyone over 18 for friends. Internet friends, activity friends, friends with limited benefits. Your call.

Certainly new here, but happy for such seemingly swell company. Seems like my kind of group.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

Welcome to the asylum. Post, comment, learn and instruct.

Do you regularly meet up with other atheists/agnostics?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

I live in a rural area near Waco, TX and do not know of any such groups near me. I might like to attend one to see if I would be interested. However, I am a loner and an introvert and prefer to be by myself most of the time, but I am capable of being social, only for a limited amount of time.

Debate forums on facebook.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

I am too much of a "you do you and I do me" person to engage in debates of any stripe.

Why is it easier to believe 150,000,000 Americans are to lazy to raise themselves from poverty than ...

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

Conservative thinking does strange things to the brain, logic and reasoning.

Is Religion an addiction?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

It certainly has all the characteristics of an addiction.

Is anti-theism on a par with racism?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

Nonsense, anyone is allowed to criticize anyone for any reason. At least in most parts of the world. Race, if it even exists, is a natural human condition and does no harm to anyone. Religion however is a contrived idea and does immense harm all over the world.

What’s the one thing you like to talk about?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

Camping in nature.

How do you deal with today's pain in this difficult world?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

I watch 4K music and nature videos on YouTube and have soft, relaxing instrumental music playing in my home all day.

Oh no.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

That meme very well sums up the human problems we all face. I VOTE. I strive to NEVER do to anyone what I would NOT want done to me. I too have a hard time with those 2 words and have to give them careful thought.

I don’t like videos.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

I have ADD (self diagnosis) and it is difficult for me to concentrate long enough to benefit from either. I do the best I can with both.

My closest and best friend who is also my first cousin visited me today.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

There is no PROOF that god does or does not exist, however, for me, there is enough EVIDENCE that no god(s) exist and no evidence that one does exist.

Name Change Question

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

You are free to do anything you want to do, but it could have repercussion at some point. A lot of people use aliases.

Bread Preference

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

100% Whole Wheat.

Is religious belief weird?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

Who knows why people believe what they believe?

Would you rather work day shifts, night shifts or graveyard shifts?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

When I was working, I preferred the evening shift (4pm - 12:30am or 6pm - 2:30am). I worked the midnight to 8:30am for about 6 months and swore I would never work it again unless my job depended on it.

Would you have a wedding with religious aspects incorporated in it?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

Absolutely not and I do not think I could have a relationship with anyone who is Theistic enough to want that.

"The myth of religious violence" This is the title of a very interesting book by William T.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

"People commit the worst crimes for the most diverse reasons". This is a true and factual statement.

How do you start a conversation? I tell my best pun

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

Hi, How are you today?

I need some advice.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

Follow your bliss.

Military religion.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 29, 2018:

It is only going to get worse in all aspects of life in the USA if the Republican, Conservative, Evangelicals maintain power. The Nov. elections will be a make or brake moment in American history. In my personal opinion.

Do you love growing flowers in pots?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

I am not a gardener and do not have a green thumb, but I love flowers and especially wild flowers. My favorite part of Spring is the profusion of wildflowers where I live here in central Texas.

Modern industrial society is a fanatical religion.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

And the clock keeps ticking.

5 dead, several 'gravely' wounded in shooting at Capital Gazette newspaper in Annapolis: Officials

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

Nothing new here. Sadly.

Is "Luck" real ?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

I believe "luck" is real and plays a part in everyone's every day life, but is nothing more than random happenings. I do not believe that some are "always" lucky and others "always" unlucky.

Do you buy bottled water? I have hot and cold running water at home, why do I need all that plastic?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

I do not, nor will I ever, buy bottled water unless that is the only water there is to drink to stay alive. If tap water is bad tasting, I buy the powder or squirt bottles of flavored water enhancers and that will make any water palatable for drinking. Works for me.

Plus, actively condemn those seeking to criminalize debate and disagreement.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

Following these ideas would make the world a much better place for all inhabitants.

Do you have BDE (Big Dick Energy) - it's defined not as a physical penis, rather an air of ...

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

You, being a woman, must be referring to big dick "envy" and not "energy", but I really have no idea what you are talking about.

Here's something I would like to share .

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

Thus the total hypocrisy of religion and the religious.

What to do when stuck on a plane next to someone trying to convert you?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

Tell them you are not interested and, if they can not switch subjects, please stop talking to you.

Discussion time.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

Would you venture a comment as to whether you would think this woman would have been equally as good a human if there were no jeebus?

What is your view on the Right to Die issue?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

100% support it.

Ethical Living

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

I doubt there is anyone on this site that fits your criteria. As for others, we are a strange lot indeed.

I was very religious, and I used to pray with my son a lot, we also went to church every Sunday.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

Honesty is always best in my opinion. He needs to learn, know and understand what is real and what is imaginary.

Can you have trust in an unpredictable person?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

You can certainly trust them to be unpredictable.

I’m starting to think religion persists because Americans desperately lack community and ...

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

To begin with, there is no "one size fits all" for humanity, but I tend to agree with what you have stated

I can't help but focus on what's going politically (and, as a result, socially) in the United ...

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

Unfortunately, I never thought the USA was the beacon of freedom and integrity. It is a class society from the beginning and it has gotten so much worse in my lifetime.

Complete the following sentence: I do not trust... (For me it's dentists.)

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

My government.

Am I on the right track?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 28, 2018:

My opinion is that is exactly what Conservatives would perfer to do, only they would include EVERYONE who is NOT a Conservative.

I am officially, (we actually got out the measuring tape this time) the shortest person in my ...

jlynn37 comments on Jun 27, 2018:

Do you have an issue with you physical properties?

I can't believe the eggies this BLOTUS has.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 27, 2018:

Just what do you expect from this lying, two-faced, hypocrite.

Where do we go from here.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 27, 2018:

You are missing the obvious my friend. Conservative do NOT think like Liberals and simple do not agree on how liberals think this country, or the world, should be run or who should be allowed to be here and participate.

So there I go.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 27, 2018:

Wow, what more can one ask for?

So I said as soon as I made level 3 I would join so here I am.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 27, 2018:

Welcome and please participate.It can be fun and informative.

Why do people think bad things that happen to people are part of god’s plan?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 27, 2018:

Well, if there happens to be a god, and it has a plan, it has to be in god's plan other wise it would one half-ass of a god

Woman on top.

"They" are demanding civility...really?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 27, 2018:

Straight, white, christian, males. The privileged class and only ones that matter.

When you think of it, churches are simply political parties, each with their own agenda, each ...

jlynn37 comments on Jun 27, 2018:

I could not agree more. "A rose by any other name is still a rose and would smell just a sweet".

What is The root cause of Conspiracy Thinking?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 27, 2018:

Ignorance and confirmation bias.

How does your moon look tonight?

My moon bees irie.

Should we genetically modify our species?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 27, 2018:

As a Humanist, I support anything that is beneficial and causes no harm to my species and my human family.

Question to atheists: Do you attend religious family events or decline on principle?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 27, 2018:

Attending ANY family events is showing support for your family and in no way harms anyone. As for religious event, attend and walk away at the finish. Attending a religious event does not validate the event, it validates your family.

What are some sad truths about life?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 26, 2018:

It's a sad truth that there are no warranties or guarantees in the medical profession.

What are some sad truths about life?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 26, 2018:

It's a sad truth that if you break it, you bought it.

Is it possible not to be brainwashed toward the religion you grew up with?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 26, 2018:

I don't think it is possible NOT to be brainwashed and indoctrinated in a religious family. It is possible to NOT have the indoctrination take hold and rule your life

What statements do you get bored of hearing from theists and religious people?

Sending thoughts and prayers

Why can't a man have a friendship with a women like he does with another man?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 26, 2018:

I thank everyone for their input to my question.

There is no such thing as a 'humble' opinion.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 26, 2018:

It is just a word. In my humble opinion.

I posted this the other day in the main feed, but I thought some people here might appreciate it, ...

jlynn37 comments on Jun 26, 2018:

I have had the same experiences with both watermelons and tomatoes but all the gardens in my area were owned by family members and we had no worries of being shot at.

It seems to be accepted practice to aim criticism toward the other person when a friendship or ...

jlynn37 comments on Jun 26, 2018:

I was married only once and after my divorce I knew that I never wanted to be married again. Not because of what my ex. did or didn't do, It was because I learned something about myself and that I was not good marriage material. All the blame was on me.

I was wondering why most people now days don’t like to meet in person like we did in the old days,...

jlynn37 comments on Jun 26, 2018:

I think everyone still prefers to meet in person but the internet and online dating sites is just a convenient way to put yourself "out there" to everyone else on the internet. As with EVERYTHING else, it has it's advantages and disadvantages.

What made you become an atheist?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 26, 2018:

Observing reality and the way nature works.

Why would anyone want to date you?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 26, 2018:

I am on dating sites for friends only. That could mean online internet friends for chatting, friends for meeting and spending time together, doing activities that we both enjoy doing together to friends with benefits, but just friends none the less.

Usually it won't, so it's not worth fretting over.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 26, 2018:

Perhaps, but it might matter NOW. Just sayin'.

It hasnot happen on here.

jlynn37 comments on Jun 26, 2018:

You are free to block but reporting will accomplish nothing. I agree that it is offensive for some but it is perfectly legal and acceptable to hunt for sport and post photos.

Last words

jlynn37 comments on Jun 26, 2018:

I'm outta here.

What's the deal?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 26, 2018:

Just connecting with like minded people, enjoying various conversations and perhaps meeting someone who you would enjoy having some personal contact with.

I need objective opinions: I recently started wood carving and I'm giving it some serious thought as...

jlynn37 comments on Jun 26, 2018:

As Joseph Campbell would say, "Follow your bliss".

Do you want to be resuscitated?

jlynn37 comments on Jun 26, 2018:

At my age, no and I have informed my family of that.

I've been an atheist for a little over two years.
