Do you like to cook? What's your specialty?

jlynn37 comments on Mar 1, 2018:

I am a single man living alone. I can cook but I do not cook and my speciality is Marie Callender's frozen dinners. Take from freezer, heat in microwave, eat, throw everything away, go out and play.

Question

jlynn37 comments on Mar 1, 2018:

We can't but perhaps evolution can and will over time.

How often do you like it?

jlynn37 comments on Mar 1, 2018:

How often do I like it? Every day. How often do I want it? Every day. How often do I get it? Never.

How often do you like it?

jlynn37 comments on Mar 1, 2018:

Every day when I was younger. Catch as catch can now which is a few years apart and could possibly never happen again.

Hello everyone! I went to get my haircut and got butchered! Why don't hairdressers do what you ask...

jlynn37 comments on Feb 28, 2018:

I asked my barber to cut my hair a particular way. A gap in the front and on the left side, uneven across the top with the right side about 1/2 inch higher than the left. He said he could not cut my hair like that and I told him that was how he did it the last time he cut my hair.

How important is the constitution to you?

jlynn37 comments on Feb 28, 2018:

It is only as important and as meaningful as it is applied and enforced.

What is everyone’s guilty TV binge pleasure?

jlynn37 comments on Feb 28, 2018:

I gave up cable, satellite, commercial OTA TV. I only watch YouTube videos for various reasons: travel, science, music, education, documentaries, nature to name a few.

It's been shown time and again that when you combine intrinsic and extrinsic motivations, you get.

jlynn37 comments on Feb 28, 2018:

I have seen very little gained by "moving up a level" other than the fact that you are more involved and obviously getting more from the site.

Some people think tears are a sign of weakness. I don't.

jlynn37 comments on Feb 28, 2018:

“There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are messengers of overwhelming grief...and unspeakable love.” Washington Irving

How much of your time do you inject on internet social forums?

jlynn37 comments on Feb 28, 2018:

Atheist holiday

jlynn37 comments on Feb 28, 2018:

I would say that most of the secular holidays at Christmas time would qualify.

I am having a time wishing for my old life back.

I do not believe you will get past this a long as you continue to live amongst those memories. IMHO

jlynn37 comments on Feb 28, 2018:

There is a big difference in the ideals of a nation and it's people.

Scientific society is starting to believe there is only 50-50 chance of this world to be real.

Is there anyone here who has ever seen a UFO? And, if so, what do you believe you were witnessing?

jlynn37 comments on Feb 27, 2018:

If you think you have seen a UFO, then what you think you have seen is a UFO. By definition it is an UNIDENTIFIED object and must remain so until it is identified. You should not say "look a UFO, I have no idea what I am seeing therefore it must me X (god, aliens, flying spaghetti monster, swamp gas, flying pigs, fairies).

Because everyone here is awesome, I assume we all love dogs. What are your favorite breeds?

jlynn37 comments on Feb 27, 2018:

I for one do not have an affinity for any pets. I do not want anything that I have to feed, cleanup after or take care of. To each their own. I do enjoy wildlife.

Psychology

jlynn37 comments on Feb 27, 2018:

It has no depressing affect on me.

Was God necessary for creation?

jlynn37 comments on Feb 27, 2018:

The obvious answer to that question is, since there is no evidence to suggest that any god(s) exist, then a non-existent entity could NOT have done anything. IMHO

Have you "come out" to family/friends about your non-believer views?

jlynn37 comments on Feb 27, 2018:

You have just as much right to your beliefs as anyone else. "causing a rift, hurting feelings, or just making things uncomfortable" is not your problem but an issue of their own making.

The Pope's opinion is noted. Flimsy though it may be.

What do you think?

jlynn37 comments on Feb 27, 2018:

Having been single and living alone for 50 years, I agree with this. However, I am not sure I would use the expression "hardest to love" but perhaps "hardest to have a serious relationship with". IMHO

The church may well accept "all children of God" but the people in the church most likely will not.

There is no such thing as 'normal'.

jlynn37 comments on Feb 25, 2018:

He is just another lifelong indoctrinated, brainwashed person that you will not be able to discuss religion with and should not even try. Just excuse yourself and walk away.

None. Watch YouTube videos for free. Learn something, travel the world, great music, plus too much to mention.

For those without a degree... Do you ever wish that you had one or had finished one?

jlynn37 comments on Feb 25, 2018:

I have an Associates degree but it has benefited me in no way. I have had a successful life as a blue collar worker but I worked in that narrow era in history that jobs were plentiful, wages were good with benefits and a lifetime pension which I am enjoying now. Life is good.

Yes I am.

Is it correct to debate someone who is fond of using bible as his source reference?

jlynn37 comments on Feb 24, 2018:

The bible makes a claim and you can not use the source of the claim in an argument, circular reasoning.

Asking for prayers....?

jlynn37 comments on Feb 24, 2018:

It is just a conditioned response from years of indoctrination. If they truly believed in what they are saying, they would remove the patient from the hospital and take him/her to a church.

Do you think everything happen for a reason? how can we know its reason?

Does or has anyone really felt they fit in?

Church

jlynn37 comments on Feb 23, 2018:

I was a member of a fantastic singles Sunday school class for about 10 years, attended every Sunday and participated in the many activities they sponsored and would continue to do so had I not moved 100 miles away but I never set foot in the sanctuary, never knew who the minister was and never had any desire to do so.

Define miracles!

jlynn37 comments on Feb 23, 2018:

Anything that can NOT happen in the natural world. Example is something returning from the dead. Not an example is lone survivor of an accident that killed everyone else.

The Supernatural. What could it be?

jlynn37 comments on Feb 23, 2018:

Imagination, fantasy, speculation, hypothesis, brain fart, mental illness to name a few.

Dating the religious.

jlynn37 comments on Feb 23, 2018:

I tell anyone that I am wanting to get to know, especially if they indicate that they are religiously inclined, that I am an A-theist pretty soon after we have met and spent some time together. Would you with hold the fact that you are married, HIV positive, etc until they have "found enough things about me to like before she learns this fact such that she decides to stick around a while."

Why

jlynn37 comments on Feb 22, 2018:

I think people are realizing that marriage or commitment is just not necessary in today's society and relationships.

Hi.

jlynn37 comments on Feb 22, 2018:

It must have been easy to just go along with your religious involvement and think nothing of it, but when you were asked to be an elder, it caused you to at least think about what you were doing and you must have realized by self examination that this is NOT who you are. Congratulations.

They are really scamming the brainwashed and vulnerable.

Anyone else feel there is too much political news dominating everyday life lately?

Do you try not to think about religion at all?

jlynn37 comments on Feb 21, 2018:

It would so nice if that were even possible but in the USA, our society is ate up with it and you would have to be a recluse and a hermit without any modern technologies to to accomplish that. IMHO

Companionship

jlynn37 comments on Feb 21, 2018:

Depends on exactly what you are seeking in a companion. Just remember bestiality is a crime in most areas, but to each their own.

I’m unsure if there is a deity, however I have had some unexplainable things happen to me.

jlynn37 comments on Feb 21, 2018:

Unexplainable things happen to a lot of people and that is just what they are, unexplainable. When you can not explain something, you just stop there. You do not say "I can not explain that, therefore it must be god". It is just something that you can not explain and you can not logically take it any further.
