Human , means to me, just something we call our particular species on this earth....Desmond Morris calls us the "Naked Ape..." Yes, we do have the ability to land on the moon, but we can also destroy more than any other species around......it seems.....but then we have viruses and things also...
It annoys me , no matter who is doing it...I find some atheists can be pretty opinionated and do this, as well, sometimes......and I am one of that crew of non-believers.....
I really don't care how educated someone becomes in any topic......and has all of that backing for making their argument...
LOL! Just inserting in a bit of humor for the day...One of my simple paintings....I sold this one to a teacher to decorate her walls in an elementary school classroom.:sheep: No, holy cow..LOL!.....hey where did the moo cow go here in emoticoms...?
Anyway...I am sorry you got me on some angry...
Who knows? I doubt it, but I could have. If I have, they did not admit it to me....Anyway, I am not trying to change anyone's belief systems about anything.....not my goal in life....I live and let live, basically.....and don't like it when someone tries to change me, so I don't do it to...
Also, I choose to believe in myself and in my own convictions.....Why must I believe in something outside of that? I do not need religion in order to be a good, kind, caring individual.....I have to live with myself....my actions, my deeds, my words, etc....

You know, I expect belittings from members, but never staff members on forums...Maybe I am on the wrong planet......I don't think your pirate thing is all that special, either.

You don't have to like it....I don't care. I love it and chose to share it ......and there may be someone here that does like it...If not...C'est la vie!
Well, I love it, and found it ironic that Edison was here.....he who invented the light bulb and gave modern man convenient light in the dark....LOL!:candle::tribal2:
I don't know. I would like to....The romantic in me really wants to! I think there is much we don't understand....maybe the so called ghosts are shadows or something from parallel universes.......I do know......I can think of something and someone will say it........same wave lengths and...
