AS the young kids would say Spiritual is just a cop out for praying to something not seen or heard like god and some of these TV preachers that are losing their sheep are using it..Thats like saying I do not believe in god but I am spiritual..Spiritual to what I might ask
something not seen or heard up in the sky---Like the catholic church for decades It was in the name of the father -son-and holy ghost but somewhere along the line it was decided ghost did not fit alot of people so it was replaced with spirit..Some hardliners still use ghost

I feel for you I have been there--I finally realized it was me who put me in the situation by shutting my mouth.Not anymore..I will not put up with religious crap anymore and I am not going to be here much longer since I am in my 9th decade.Since I stopped using the atheist word and say I am not religious its been a huge help.Saying Atheist seems to trigger some attack mode but saying I am not religious they may ask why not and I will say something along the line of why should I be ??Only once some one asked if I was afraid of going..to hell I said NO do you know of any one there personally..end of discussion and they laughed..Billy Graham made that Atheist word hateful back in the 50s and congress ran with it to this day ..Asshole Trump just used communist and atheist in the same sentence so its still around...I ve got to look for that movie

First of all down here in the south Atheist is spelled"communist" and telling some one that may get your house burned down and I am not kidding--but just saying I am not religious seems to get hardly any reaction..You have finally got the enabling part right and I have always maintained for years that when someone has made a religious remark to or for me I should have said something rather then let them leave thinking I approved of what they said.OH well thats their belief does not cut it because its their belief that is causing me problems...and they should know it..My latest adventure In ARkansas I was accosted by women holding signs saying right to life..They had some remarks and questions and finally I said-no you believe in the right to life for the fetus I believe in right to life for the woman Do you??they were speechless..

2+2=5 brings back memories when I was in military in special training having to do with radar..There are some people that absoluetly
could not handle it..I won,t go into a long explanation but some would come back in an hour and do test again with room in color lighting that was changed and get a sheet of paper with alot numbers and be told to add them up in a ridiculous amount of time and some showed they saw 2+2=5 others on different type of radar when room lighting color was changed could not see anything or something that was not there.I will just suffice to say that while watching that analog strobe there was also something else going on that we found out years later and wonder if some of these people who hear and see god or think they are the opposite sex somehow might be exposed to something..The only other answer that make sense is mental problems...Then again there are people that can will themselves to do things contrary to the Human senses that seem normal otherwise..

You are correct--It was SUPPOSED to be for your 4/3/2023 post-this is not the first time I have seen this..
I hope this goes thru most times it does not..If it does I have said it before you have many regular commenters that are no longer here but they are here it just that the comments are not being accepted.I will click submit and 2 little arrows like a dog chasing its tail will show but comment will never show..I have tried writing this comment before and I really hope it goes thru

We find this post really troubling mainly because the way surveys are taken and how and where..They are not impartial for sure..
In my little world for instance my friends and relatives we range from 60 to 90 and we have something quite common.All of us in our entire lives have NEVER been contacted by types of surveys you refer to..For now we will leave out the great grand kids because they are coming up in a radical new type of society..Us older folks believe there are and have been laws in place already to protect everyone
equally they just need enforcement..We do not think making special laws for the people you mention is fair to the rest..Also you might try to explain just how is anyone supposed to know if you are dealing with them--Like my friends said lets take some of these liberals to a Walmart and see if they can pick out a homosexual-transgender-catholic-mormon or whatever...Now its the so called African americans wanting money(reparations) simple becausew they are black..Whats next ...??nuclear war.

The law is supposed to be equal for everyone but we know it is not even close especially when it comes to religion..Lawyers have taken over this country and no body seems to care..They have taken words in the english language to a whole new level just to serve their purpose ..like calling Hobby lobby a person-that being said we have all been taught that helping a criminal is against the law but again religion does not have to do it--sanctuary--I have just read a washinton man was arrested for harboring and aiding illegal aliens..
My question is our representatives -President --pastors- priests etc are all helping and aiding Illegal aliens that they know are illegal by giving them money housing and other items...So why do we enforce a law against one man and not the rest..

you have one word that describes the entire bible INTERPRETATION---thats it in a nutshell --there is no one alive who ever saw these scrolls written and if you speak a second language translating it into english of today-good luck
Thats the way these mega preachers make the big bucks--the average person can not make sense of that book so they look to the pastors and priests who imprint their weak minds..This is from a local paper "bulldogs eat the wildcats 95 -50" what would that mean to a person 2300 years down the road...Would they know it was 2 small town basketball teams or would some one interpret who knows what
