what truly turns you off

Thanks CC. I am glad to be back..lol lol..

Take care...and thank you for being you. Most direct and no nonsense on all your posts..Love you my dear lady..

Friendship

Some of my great experiences on this site is meeting with friends.

I value friendship so much. They fill up my days with great positive feelings of just about anything. I have traveled the world and met so many of them and I wonder if there are some on here, like me, that have met some friends? Love even?

Would you travel regardless of miles, if you can, just to meet them in person?

Thanks all for your participation.

CC wheww that is on top of my list. Anyone who lies, nothing good will come out of them..

Thanks CC. How is your holidays coming up?

what truly turns you off

I think anyone who betrays friendship truly turns me off.

Traitors...

The good side of religion

Yes and I wonder if truly, we should just go ahead and ignore the claim that the radical islam are just propaganda to take on against each other.

But reality is, how so that the majority of these peaceful muslims, do jubilate in explosion when a harm is done? Makes me wonder.

The good side of religion

Hey did you see the latest in my country? Debate is so strong on religion and right to bear arms again..

The good side of religion

Yes Tom...I got paroled and so please help me not to fall off the wagon again..

Wasn't fun at all being in Jail Tom. There was not good food and nothing served as tasty.

The good side of religion

I am happy for you. Me, too, almost all done. You know having 7 grand children and all wants different things, whewww.. there is a lot to be done String..

The good side of religion

Thank you for joining Life. Indeed, to some but majority, religion is a unifying force, specially to the have nots. At least what I observe is that majority of the under privileged are easier to be in a group that can give them hope. Or 1.4 billion of islam wouldn't be around and neither is 2.8 billion Catholic. Not too many who thinks believing in God, where religion is not needed.

The good side of religion

String, it is so nice to be able to participate on the forum. I am back. Yes I kind of believe that it fits on our Revelation and on the claim of Armageddon.

How are you?

The good side of religion

Yes in some ways, but not always. I wouldn't want to discredit the many good things that religion has done for us.

Thank you Chris, I am back...

The good side of religion

I have seen so many homeless being taken cared of by so many religious groups.

The good side of religion

I do believe there is more good that is coming out of believing in a religion than the bad things happening because of them.

The good side of religion

Hello there Tom. You are so right Tom. And I am happy to see you. How is your trip? Take care..

The good side of religion

A very comforting reason Obs. Indeed, when 9/11 happened, my church which was empty most of the time, got overflowed for the next months or so after that.

The good side of religion

Tru, I love all that is associated with this celebration. The gift giving, the decoration, the parties.

The good side of religion

I was brought up by a very loving and religious parents. I learned all the good and great things about God. How we should and must always do good because we would be punished if we didn't.

As I grew older, I realized there is nothing wrong with that teaching, except the punishment was not logical. I found out, though, that it is our responsibility to account all actions we do, with or without religion. My take is, religion is good for unifying people, supporting each other and I have to admit, my Catholic church, St. Vincent De Paul Society, feed a lot of people everyday, (I used to volunteer and ) for as long as I can remember.

The good side of religion

I noticed lately that almost all discussion about religion tends to go askew and I think because we only associate religion to the bad things it fosters.

There is a very good side of having religion. With due respect to those who are atheist, this is not for you to get criticized for not having one. Rather with staggering numbers of followers on 6 major different religions (or possibly more), there has got to be a great reasons why we, the majority, believe in such an organization.

Can you site some reasons why we have a religion? What it does to you?

Thanks all for your reads and comments (if any).

RE: Say Anything (again!)

Two inches of snow fell last night and it is so beautiful.

what truly turns you off

Thanks Ito, nah...and even if you are going to be a GOM. who cares, you have earned it. But back to the illness, of course I remember, you mentioned that in one of my blog. Remember? I share your sentiments, as for me, two cancers and still kicking is enough to make me feel good about life. Now aneurism is the culprit. But these are the mysteries of life, that even with our high tech medical breakthrough, can't seem to handle yet, I am thankful to be alive. Visit my new blog, you might like it.

Well keep up the good work CC. Your good nature is blessing to all, including me, and I do learn a lot from you. You have no idea, I sometimes back off and digest what it is you are saying and more often than not, it makes me reflect on a better direction as to what I am about to do. Thank you.

People like you turn me on, CC.

CC

You tolerated it that long??? I knew there is something very deeply admirable with you CC. Tolerance and patience.

what truly turns you off

Nice to see you Ito, been a long time. I was wondering how you were for a while. Anyways, yes on lies. I learned over the years that once a liar, will always be a liar. Best thing is to spot them flaw first time. You can't ever make them look at you and admit it. I guess, it is not discernable for them to know that it is a lie.

Winter doesn't seem as bad as last year in the Mid West. California Sierra however, is so full of snow and it is good for business specially in the Tahoe areas. Squaw Valley are booming at the moment. Last year they had to make artificial snow for the skiers.

Well Yubba, that is easy. Just tell your bitter/better half (that is if you're already shacking together) to clean up.

Just saying. Me too, wheww one time I was sitting next to someone who smells like whoah!!! and my friend told me: "it is weed" but I glanced at him, and he looks like he just got done doing a sewer job.. yay..

CC, good morning. Well they do have emotions, too, CC. but yes it is pathetic when they can't move on...IMO, I wouldn't even have anything to do with that kind of a man CC.

what truly turns you off

Yes, the El nino is pervasive in the West. There is more snow in the Sierra at the moment than in the Midwest.

Anyways, stay warm..
