    Dementia Sucks

    I fully believe so, death is a release from all pain almost no matter what spiritual standpoint you take. Me too. I watched my grandfather die over a period of 6 months in physical agony. In the end he died of gangrene so bad they couldn't change his bandages without putting him under...

    Why Heaven and Hell?

    Typical Glompist opinion. ;)

    Scientists actually do know everything about the universe.

    People thought the Earth was flat for a long time too...I'm saying too early to tell.

    Dementia Sucks

    Considering this topic, curious on where you stand on the right to die with dignity issue?

    Dementia Sucks

    For me the answer is in the question. Q: Is there an all powerful loving God who could easily allow your grandmother to die with grace, but choses to design her, and us all to, as Nietzsche so finely put it...force most of us to have to watch our loved ones forget who they were? A: No. No...

    Why Heaven and Hell?

    It's particularly confusing when you read Matthew 7 and find out that waaaay more people are going to Hell than Heaven. “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard...

    Dementia Sucks

    Some religious/spiritual views don't really conflict with the fact that most people, should they live long enough, end up in some state of dementia. But any religion with a personal, present, active God who watches us all somehow has to rationalize that He/She/It designed us to get dementia.

    Dementia Sucks

    And yet the vast majority accept the second answer over the first. That boggles my mind.

    Dementia Sucks

    "I know I used to really like something...what was it...chimichanga...choo choo trains...chimpanzees...chalk...DAMN I CAN'T REMEMBER!" "It was cheese, dementia mouse, you loved cheese." "That's right cheese! I hated something too...catalogues...catfish...caterpillers...dammit can't remember..."

    Dementia Sucks

    ***rant begins*** Maybe God should do something about it if he gave a damn. But he clearly won't because either 1) there isn't a God or 2) he is a big fat arsehole who likes to let people watched their loved ones lose all memory of their lives, accuse their loved ones of crazy stuff, and die...

    Dementia Sucks

    Both of my grandmothers went through this. It's heartbreaking. I'd say it's almost better when it gets really bad and they just don't know what's going on, because in the middle watching them realizing and struggling with it was just brutal. My grandmother would forget my name and then cry...

    How unsporting can the Christian god be? Let me tell you

    God used to have a place called Limbo where he sent people with Original Sin who never had a chance to worship Jesus, such as infants or people from some remote tribe in Africa who live under the same tree their entire lives. Then one day the Pope closed down Limbo like some cosmic Guantanamo...

    Ugh, don't be one of those people.

    When it comes to Prayer 76% of Americans Don't Give a **** About the Constitution

    I'm just rare like a Bigfoot/Nessie baby, I don't look like one! My Uncle Larry with his shirt off at the beach, however, could be confused for any number of disturbing mythical creatures...

    When it comes to Prayer 76% of Americans Don't Give a **** About the Constitution

    But that guy who walks on the surface of the water, causes pigs to commit mass suicide, murders fig trees in a fit of rage, turns H2O into a nice pinot noir, and will one day fly back into the atmoshpere on a flying horse with a sword sticking out of his mouth...he's real.

    When it comes to Prayer 76% of Americans Don't Give a **** About the Constitution

    Hey, I exist I'm right here! Stranger still, I'm a fiscally conservative gun owning Democrat! I'm like if Bigfoot and Nessie had a hairy swimming baby.

    When it comes to Prayer 76% of Americans Don't Give a **** About the Constitution

    Come on, read his post. He said specifically he hates the Catholic Church and the priests and nuns he grew up with. This is extremely common these days even for Catholics. I know tons of people who are religious personally but have a problem with organized religion because they feel the...

    When it comes to Prayer 76% of Americans Don't Give a **** About the Constitution

    Me too growing up Catholic. The RCC is a criminal organization. And I just don't get the supporters. They just made JPII a saint and he knew about the molestation scandal in 1985 and covered it up for 20 years. Sorry, off topic I just get wound up about that topic, especially as a lifetime...

    When it comes to Prayer 76% of Americans Don't Give a **** About the Constitution

    Tell that to Cardinal Bernard Law. I wish this were true, but many evil people get away with their crimes. The world ain't fair, is perhaps the most important lesson my father ever taught me.
