Reframing John 3:16 and Removing the Sugar-Coating

Ahah! I like it. Today two people knocked on my door and said that they had an invitation for me. I asked them for what. One answered "to celebrate the death of our lord." I almost said if he was all that powerful, how come he died. How can a god die. I let it go and just said no and closed the door.

I am as liberal and open minded as they come. I don't believe in discriminating against anyone. I do require honesty however. I like women and if a person was born male and is now a transgender female, that fact should disclosed upfront. I will politely say that I am looking for something else in a relationship. Honesty is key, because I make it clear that I am interested in a woman and I am a straight male. That fact should be divulged at the beginning. In the words of Popeye "I am what I am" and you are who you are and I respect that. Just be honest and respectful.

I never told my mother only because she would feel that it is her fault, and she failed somehow. She was very sick toward the end of her life and I did not want to add to her worries, but she would never abandon me or stop loving me. She always asked me why I do not go to church. I just told her that churches are full of hipocrytes and fakers looking for forgiveness on Sundays for the bad deeds that they do during the week. She just laughed and said yes, a lot of them are but there are good people also.

It could destroy your relationship. Can your wife accept you as you are. Can you go on with your life as it is now and not tell her. Those are things that you have to consider. I never told my mother that I was an atheist from the time that I was eight years old, and I just never discussed religion with her. However this is different than living with your wife. I did not live with my mother as an adult.

Why bother, everyone has the right to his or her own beliefs just as you do. If they realize the fallacy of their beliefs on their own, than good for them. I respect everyone's right to believe, or not to believe in anything that they choose. I just do not want them to try to force their beliefs onto me, and I do not force mine onto them.

Tips for moving out of state

noworry28 comments on Mar 8, 2018:

Look online and see what jobs are advertised in the area that you plan to move to. When you are ready to make the move, apply and head down. I cannot stress it enough, in Florida a car is a necessity. You will need it to go to interview and to get to work. In the summer time you will appreciate that car when the heat hits you and you don't have to wait for a bus for 25 minutes or it's past 8 pm and it is still 90 degrees and the buses only comes once an hour up till 9 pm and then no more public transportation after that.

noworry28 comments on Mar 2, 2018:

I can stay out late and not having to check with anyone. Not getting the evil eye for arriving late. I can go to any restaurant and try different food without checking with anyone. I can listen to any radio station that I want and watch any television show that I want. The best one is not being expected to read someone's mind to know what she expect me to do or say or answer. No honey do list. That being said, it is possible that so far I haven't found a woman that I am willing to give up those perks for. All the good ones that I know are already taken and all I have had so far are the bad ones.

Hey, everyone.

noworry28 comments on Mar 1, 2018:

Here are some questions that have been asked of me. 1. How can you be moral and not follow Jesus. Answer. I do the right thing withoiut the expectation of a reward in the afterlife or punishment. 2. You have to follow the bible which is the word of god. Answer. The same god who killed the innocent first born of Egypt. He just had to show himself to the Pharaoh. The same god that told the Israelites to kill of of the male children and elders and the older women and to only keep the young women of child bearing age and to wait three months until they took them as wives. 3. God hates homoxeuals and heathens. Answer If you truly believe in god, than god made them that way and if he made them that way then god gave them the free will to choose and you believethat, unless you think god made a mistake. 4. You should follow god or you will go to hell. Answer. Which god, which religion, Christian, which demonination, Judism, which sect. Muslim, which sect. Why so many and how all of them claim to be the true religion of god. Is god playing games with them. They all claim that god speaks to them. These are just some that I have had to answer and those are some of my answers.

Advice!! Recently started dating someone.

noworry28 comments on Feb 28, 2018:

I saw the picture that you have with the guy sitting in the car next to you. I cannot blame you for not being attracred to him, he is too skinny to bony, and I think he may be anorexic. It could be that you like him as a friend and you do not want to be alone. However that is not fair to him or to you. If you make yourself sleep with him in an attempt to start a spark, you will regret it and you will start to despise him and then yourself. Do not jump into a sexual relationship because you are afraid to lose a friend. Be true to yourself. If it is not there it is not there, just don't string him along. The right guy will come along.

What IS the American Dream?

noworry28 comments on Feb 28, 2018:

I usually say something funny when I answer on a post, but I am going to be serious on this one. Unfortunately to get an answer to that question, I believe that an immigrant would be probably give the best answer in today's environment. As an immigrant myself who moved to this country when I was eleven years old, I will give it a shot and try to answer it from my point of view ant that of a lot of first generation Americans. I have friends from all corners of the world who now reside in the United States. From Muslims counties in the middle east, from central and south America, from the Caribbean Islands, from Africa and from Europe. This is what we all love about this country. We all came here at a young age consider ourselves Americans. Some of have served in the U.S. military. The fact that we can criticize a Senator, a Congressman, a President in the open without the fear of disappearing, imprisoned or being killed is a new found concept that the rest of America will never experience and have any fear of. The concept of a public school system where you can learn to read and write, and have the opportunity to go to college or a university is not a guarantee to most of the world. I know several of you have heard others talk about people who come from other countries, and when they get a house or an apartment there are three generations of an extended family of fifteen or more living in a three bedroom domicile. What most people here do not understand is that those family pull together to help each other, because back in their country of origin they had no home, no job and no food to eat, so that three bedroom house or apartment is a luxury compare to what they had. The concept of three meals a day is a luxury and the ability to have a job, even a a low paying job that only immigrants will do give them the ability to feed a family. When someone is walking down the street and he or she sees a police car or a military vehicle driving down that street. Imagine that your only choice is to run as fast as you can and hide and hope they do not see you, because if they catch you, your family will never see you again. That is a reality. Imagine the religious police coming to your house or work and telling you and your family and co-workers that you must stop whatever you are doing and go to morning or afternoon prayer. Imagine being afraid for anyone to find out that you are an Atheist because you would be killed. Yes, we have a Dick in the white house, but the American dream is still attainable for me and many others. I have a roof over my head, I got an education, I do not run when I see a police officer or a soldier, no one forces me to worship any god, I can apply for any job that I want to do, I am not starving, I can continue...

I am one who believe that in this vast universe, we are not the only planet that has intelligent life as its inhabitant. Ii am a skeptic however when it comes to some of those ancient alien theories, because I can make several logical arguments to debunk some of those theories. However, I was watching the news a few months back, and one of the news footage was about an a UFO that was filmed by a military aircraft pilot and several aeronautical experts said that no one on earth has the technology to perform what that aircraft did. They other day as I was watching the news again, they were talking about how digital cameras zoomed in and saw that Donald Trump had the responses in his hand, when he had the survivors from the Florida school shooting in the white house. They also said that it was not the first time the the news media was able to zoom in on presidential papers. They showed and aid carrying the secret presidential daily briefing and not covering the first page. They zoomed in and showed the lines saying that Intelligence reports have noticed that Alien surveillance of military bases and nuclear weapon storage bases have increased in the United States. I am not sure what to think about that.

Yes, lots of time and I liked it.

Dating

I joined because of the intelligent conversations that I found on this site. I haven't tried to contact anyone for a date, although I have noticed some very intelligent women here, I am attracted to smart women. The truth is, I was told that there was cake here when one reaches certain levels and I am looking to eat some cake. Who knows, I might meet someone here or not, either way I like this site...

Does anyone have an opinion of the swinger lifestyle?

I get dizzy when I swing too much so I just let the kids get on the swing set. Oh! you mean the adult swapping lifestyle. I have never done it. I have a hard time dealing with one relationship at a time when I am in one, the last thing that I want to do is to complicate it by adding more people into it.

Would like to brainstorm ideas for our website's cover text.

I like the first one that invites all to come and not just agnostics.

Is there any point in arguing with people who do not value truth or evidence?

Never get in an argument with stupid people, the will bring you down to their level, and beat you with their experience- Mark Twain You cannot win.

Any fans of the Xanth series?

noworry28 comments on Feb 23, 2018:

yes, I read most of them. I also liked Pierce Anthony's Incarnations of Immortality and the Adept series. Great books

What's something you've never done?

Sing on a stage in front of a group of people. I don't believe in torture and I would never be that cruel to anyone and expose them to my singing, not even theists.

OK.

I learned to shoot in the military, and I like to shoot guns. I do not need to own an assault rifle. I have no problem with going to a shooting range and renting a gun and shoot it for an hour. That should be sufficient to meet that macho need that everyone has to have a gun. A Legal business where someone can rent a gun for a period of time, and an instructor can teach you how to shoot, and you can go shoot whenever you want and then leave the gun at that business.

Do you think hating someone is unnecessary?

Why waste your energy on a bad person. It brings negative stress to one's body. It keeps one awake at night. Don't waste that energy on someone who does not deserve a second of your thought.

National Chili Day! So it is! So of course I'm curious to know who here likes chili.

Hot and spicy is how I like it. The more pepper the better.

If a guy or girl straight up asked you to have sex with them, how would you respond to it?

noworry28 comments on Feb 21, 2018:

I would where is the camera that is recording the show and the name of the show and walk away.

How can you tell if someone really cares about you and isn't just using you?

noworry28 comments on Feb 21, 2018:

Some people are very good at hiding their true agenda. It is very hard. Only the people you trust can betray you. Remember that.

Would you date/marry a Muslim?

noworry28 comments on Feb 21, 2018:

I could not date or marry anyone who is too overtly religious no matter what religion they follow. I know a woman who is a good person, and she used to like me but, she is Christian and too religious and I never got involved with her because of that.

Never thought I'd see the day when I agreed with Pat Roberson: [patheos.com]

Give him a few weeks and he will dismiss it, just like the republican law makers do after every mass shooting. They will offer their prayers and then dismiss any talk about passing any substantial laws to fix the problem. It is all for show. Remember years ago, Pat Roberson was interviewed showing that he was loading his private plane with food that he was personally sending to the famine stricken areas in Africa. When he thought that the cameras were off and the reporters were gone, he had the food unloaded from the plane, and replaced with mining equipment for his diamond mine that he owned in Africa as partner with the former dictator of Liberia. One of the cameramen was tipped off and snicked back in and kept filming and got the footage.

To the happily childfree: What were your reasons?

I never found the right woman to have a child with, and I do not want to be a part time weekend father. I have a hard time when my nephews and nieces leave after spending the day or the weekend with me.
