Describe the feeling when you left religion.

I do not recall any "feelings", just the realization that religions are just nonsense and I can find better things to do with my life.

How many of you have thought of relocating due to your beliefs?
jlynn37 comments on Feb 2, 2018:
My thoughts for relocating to another country and become an "expat" is strictly for political reason at this point time, but as the political atmosphere continues to morph into a theocratic one, I would most definitely include for religious reasons.

Religious charities are just a ruse to get you in their confidence to proselytize. I firmly believe that if it were illegal and religious charitable organisations were not permitted to proselytize, they would stop their charitable organisations pronto. Religions do not do things for altruistic motives but do it strictly to "spread the good news". (IMHO)

Not from Craigslist, but every dating site is inundated with this type of scam. (except Agnostic.com). I have been on several dating sites for over 20 years and it has been that way since the start of the internet. Because it was so prevalent, I typed a text file and save to copy and paste in chats saying "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". Feel free to copy and use it if you so desire.

jlynn37 comments on Feb 1, 2018:
I have been retired for over 23 years, do not work at all, am single, live alone, in very good health, so I rarely have any day that resembles a "long, stupid day". I listen to MY kind of music on YouTube all day when I am at home and to recorded music when I am in my car traveling. I probably live as stress free a life that is possible. I often say that if I had one wish, it would be that every human on this planet have, at a minimum, as good a life that I have and enjoy.

You, and she, will be free spend as much time together as you are comfortable with, to size each other up and to see if you would want to take it to the date stage. If you are not interested you can just end the meeting gracefully and go on your way.

Where do you get your news from?
jlynn37 comments on Jan 30, 2018:
I only get news from the internet and I take ANY of it with a bit of skepticism as most everything anymore is mostly propaganda.

Do you miss the social aspect of church?
jlynn37 comments on Jan 30, 2018:
Why don't you return for the social benefits you obviously enjoyed? I have been associated with several activities in various different churches, enjoyed my participation and do miss the social aspects they provided me. I never considered there being anything "bigger" and it was simply social and enjoyable. The nonsense was simply ignored.

State of the Union Address, anyone?
jlynn37 comments on Jan 30, 2018:
I have never been interested in ANY president's state of the union address. I vote in every election and that is all I can do. I feel that once a president is elected and in office, there is little else I can do but smile or frown, as the case may be, and go with the flow until the next election. (IMHO)

Does this bother you?
jlynn37 comments on Jan 30, 2018:
Yes it does. I am an outdoors, in nature person and I have never hunted nor killed for any pleasure nor do I understand how others do. There is a Native proverb, "Until the lion can speak, you will only hear the hunter's story."

I never wanted to have kids, is that weird?
jlynn37 comments on Jan 30, 2018:
I have a son and a daughter, 4 grands and 4 great-grands. I love my family and they are important to me and I have a close relationship with them. I say without hesitation that if I could do it over again, I would NOT have children. It has taken me a lifetime to know and understand who I am. That is my conclusion.

Anyone here into backpacking/hiking?
jlynn37 comments on Jan 29, 2018:
I am a camper and enjoy hiking the trails where I am camped, but at my age I am very limited to my activities. When I was younger I did backpacking, white water rafting, canoeing, Mtn climbing (via trails).

FACT CHECK: Does a New Law Allow Atheist Doctors to Refuse Care to Religious Patients?
jlynn37 comments on Jan 29, 2018:
Of course not. If a law was passed to that effect, it would only work in one direction, that being allowing christians to deny anyone opposed to their cult any assistance in any way.

Convert the believers?
jlynn37 comments on Jan 29, 2018:
I doubt that anyone can convert a believer. The believer has to do that on his/her own by examining evidence, facts and data and self examination. I think that the incentive to do so can be done however. (IMHO)

If a tree falls with no one to hear it, does it make a sound?
jlynn37 comments on Jan 27, 2018:
This is true. If a deaf person is standing by anything (a falling tree, crashing cars, etc) that person will hear no sound. Sound is produced by the brain converting wave vibrations in the air into sound. (IMHO)
