Do not get in a relationship because you are afraid of being alone. One can be in a relationship and still be alone. I would rather be alone, than be in a bad relationship. I have not been in a relationship for over five years, and I am happy with my life. If and when I find the right woman, she will have to be able to add substance to my life as I add substance to hers. I am not lonely or depress because I am not in a relationship. Learn to be happy with who you are. When the right person comes along, that person will make your life better. When I meet a woman nowadays, I am more careful, and I take my time to get to know her. So far I have not met he right woman, and I am able to disqualify the ones that are not right for me a lot faster now, Hang in there and do not settle for just anyone. You will find the right one.

Atheist Emblems

noworry28 comments on Dec 30, 2017:

My beliefs are my own. Unlike believers that are always trying to save someone or judge others, I am not trying to convince or influence anyone's belief or non belief. Everyone has the right to believe or not believe in whatever he or she chooses. I believe in personal choices. I do not need to wear my beliefs on my sleeve.

noworry28 comments on Dec 30, 2017:

Covering women head to toe so that they do not tempt men tells me that Muslim me cannot control themselves and behave. It's a way to control women. It tells me that they are ruled by basic instinct and cannot think and control their behavior. That still does not keep some of them from committing acts of sexual violence toward women.

Does anyone have a serious phobia?

I fear that if I get sick and I am in a hospital room and I am immobilized and I cannot speak or move, but can hear and am conscious of my surrounding, that my family and friend would take turns praying and reading the bible or any religious books thinking that they are helping me and comforting me. Can you imagine someone reading that myth to you all day and you cannot leave or say shut up.

noworry28 comments on Dec 30, 2017:

I do not try to convert anyone, and I have never met any atheists or agnostics that goes around trying to convert anyone. This is something that someone has to achieve on his or her own, It requires thinking for oneself, and being able to analyze and understand facts. No one converted me.

What are your thoughts about euthanasia?

I believe that if someone is just depressed, society should do everything to help and treat that person.

I certainly do not want to be kept alive with feeding tubes and drugs.

I do the right thing because it is the right thing to do. I do not expect a reward in the afterlife. True believers are trying to buy their place into heaven. They do the right thing because they are afraid that something bad awaits them in the afterlife if they do not behave. I ask for nothing nor do I expect any reward in the afterlife.

However that rule is being waived by the Trump organization and allowing it.

What can be done about police brutality?

noworry28 comments on Dec 28, 2017:

The police are not being trained to kill civilians. What is happening is that the wrong people are getting hired as police officers. It is only a few members of that group that keeps doing the same bad things. They mistreat people, the think that the badge give them the right to do anything. I know several people that had bad experiences with police officers. I know a few bad police officers that should never have been hired. I am an black man and an ex cop. I have seen and heard things that should never been said and done. Believe me it is a small majority of police officers. There are more bad ones in the southern states.

I look at it this way. I want to continue to live, I want to be free, and I want to be happy. That is what I want for myself and I think others should have the right to want that for themselves. I do not want anyone or government to kill me because of my beliefs or non beliefs -i.e. Some Muslim countries-. I want to be free and not in chain- my ancestors were imported from Africa and enslaved-. I want lo laugh and be happy- some religious cult that oppresses their members and tell them what to like and do.

It would never work because the bomber would try to explain to the victims the steps the bomb goes through in order to detonate. The chemical reactions, the way of connecting the wires, the elements in the bomb, the electrons, protons and neutrons in each of them, how the reaction occurs. By that time the police would show up and tell the bomber that he needs to come to the station and explain all that to them, and the bomber would get frustrated and give the vest to the police and say forget it.

I have yet to meet an atheist or an agnostic missionary who goes door to door trying to convert anyone. I don't tell any religious person that dead scientists are waiting for them in the afterlife to reward or punish them for their beliefs.

Is it rationally justified to pay for sex ?

noworry28 comments on Dec 26, 2017:

When a guy go out on a date and I spend money buying new clothes($60-$100), take her out to a nice restaurant($80-$120), go to a show($100-$200). Does that guy hope that that investment leads to sex; maybe not the first date, but the second or third date. He is still paying for it and he is gambling on the result. When another guy pays upfront for sex, he is doing the same thing without the gamble- unless it is an undercover police officer- and he "knows" it will lead to sex. Something to think about. I have a problem with people who forces others into prostitution. Police should target those sex traffickers. No one should be forced into prostitution. I believe it should be regulated and the participants tested and educated about the risks. I will not judge anyone who partake in this lifestyle. I knew someone who had a disability and was mentally challenge a bit. He was never able to be in a regular relationship. He finally lost his virginity at the age of 48 years of age by going to a prostitute.

How many people in this country knows how to star a fire without matches or knows how to kill and clean a chicken. Finding food would be the number one priority. Almost all scientific knowledge would be lost. Even the ability to read and write would be lost. The few that survive would turn to some religious belief for guidance. Think of the dark ages.

The pill does not control morality. I love women, but I do not force myself onto them. When I ask a woman out and she says no, I take no as an answer and respect their decision. These assault have been going on for centuries, the only difference is that women are not keeping quiet anymore. They need to change the rules of civil court about non disclosure settlements. A lot of women have spoken up, and then are threatened and silenced by the non disclosure rule. They are also faced with the fact no one will believe them, and they would be called liars and whores by the people and companies they are accusing. Look at our own congress where several law makers were accused of sexual harassment, and the women were paid off and silenced. The public have been paying for it, and the public never knew about it.

The appeal court agreed with them and ruled that they did not have any constitutional mandate to tell the truth and they are covered under the first amendment of freedom of speech. Research it. It happened over ten years ago.

Too many others would be offended that so many people are taking advantage of the system. I personally believe that if one is able to work and contribute and provide for him or herself one should. I also believe that when someone needs help to get on their feet, society should help and provide and help that person while they are down, until they can stand on their own.

What do you embrace most about being an Atheist?

I have a brain and i like to use it to do my own thinking. I do the right thing because it is the decent thing to do not because I am looking for a reward in the afterlife. I will curse a preacher or religious person who tries to force his views on me and tell him that god is a man made myth without the fear of going to hell.

Prayer selfish?

Do something about it, don't pray for it. Prayers are useless. Praying to an invisible super being that lives in the sky and control all and knows all. He does not need anyone to pray to him if he is all powerful and knows it all. If someone is hungry, give that person some food. If someone is suffering and you can help, just do it.

Atheism Does't Excuse Intolerance I have seen racism, xenophobia, islamophobia, anti-semitism etc....

I agree that everyone has the right to their own beliefs. I do not want anyone trying to force their beliefs on me.

Do you agree with the Castle Doctrine?

You should not have to retreat from your home. you have the right to defend yourself and your family. I was home and a kid jumped the gate into my patio and tried to steal a small bicycle that I keep for my nephew.I just yelled at him and he ran away. There is no need to take his life over something as trivial as that. However if someone came into my house and my life was in danger then I would do whatever i have to do to protect myself and my family.

Natural medicine has some good points. eating right and all that. remember that medicine started as a natural science. Mixing different natural ingredients to create a cure (chemistry). Things that were thought to be magic and witchcraft are not understood to be chemical reactions and medications are formed. There is a difference between drinking some teas with healing properties and eating fruits with high amounts of vitamin c's to battle a cold and being stupid and trying that same remedy as a cure for pneumonia. One can change his or her diet and exercise as a way to control diabetes. That to me is still part of modern medicine. However if the doctor says you have an advance form of a disease, a few leaves and diet is not the way to go. Take your medicine,

i pretended to believe as a child when my parents forced me to go to church. I pretended in boot camp when my drill instructor said that everyone will go to church on Sundays. For $10 millions, definitely will do it.

Should I attend a wedding at church as an atheist?

You are showing support to your friend not worshiping a god. I go to weddings and baptisms and funerals at churches and synagogues all the time to show respect and support to my friends and family.

Even though I have given up Christianity, I still believe in some of the teachings of Jesus and have...

Helping the less fortunate. Nothing wrong with that. There are some good values that are taught in all religions. Sometimes the only way to get people to follow a good idea and to do the right thing is to tell them that god says so. Treating people the way you want to be treated can be found in a lot of different teachings including religion.

Good day all, will god allow sex in heaven

I wonder about that. Islam promises 21 virgins. My first question is. Where are they going to find all those virgins? I can't even find them on earth. Second question. Are the women who are Muslims also gets 21 virgin men. My third question is since your body dies and your spirit(soul) goes to heaven- How are you going to perform and enjoy those virgins? Are you going to soul f***k them? Since you are in heaven for eternity after you have sex with the 21 virgins do you get another 21 virgins or do they regain their virginity after each encounter? Just thinking.

Good line to follow up with next time someone asks me that.

I think I will use that the next time someone knocks on my door trying to convert me. Lol.
