When you get to be a certain age, you know what you want and what you don't. You realize life is short. Time and energy are at a premium. Some of us choose not to waste time dating a person we know we won't enjoy. Someone else might take my list and call it a turn on list. I know what I can live with. I stick with that.

In recent years, I have turned down 100 % of men who have asked me out. At this point in life, I have no burning need for a partner. I'm past childbearing years. I don't see marriage as a must have. I would love to have an interesting love in my life, don't get me wrong, but I am not so desperate for it that I will waste my time with men I know could never be that for me. I'll give a man a chance, though, even if he initially doesn't seem attractive to me, to get to know me in a non dating way. I won't write off a guy for petty reasons. I stay single, just as much, because I don't feel I'd be the best partner for someone right now. For the right guy though, I'd give him my time and attention if he wooed me properly.

lack of passion for life, depth, complexity in thinking, lack of depth in values and interests

a closed mind

bad hygiene/ messy grooming

pettiness, lack of compassion and empathy

lack of ambition or drive to better himself/ lack of vision or life plans and goals

lack of ability to manage money

lack of chemistry

lack of appreciation and respect for the feminine gender, including buying into stereotypes, making excuses for bad behavior based on religion or evolution-------thinking there is one, set formula for understanding all women. Viewing women as walking, talking genitals and breasts

lack of self respect

lack of commonalities in interests and views, not a turn off, but definitely a reason for disinterest in the person as more than platonic

Although I'm a big fan of bringing the watch tower down and he has every right to be pissed off with them. I think this sort of behavior just confirms in the dubbies mind that they are an oppressed people and they have the truth. I sort of would discourage this behavior. But anyway it helped the guy get it off his chest so power to him.

When he said rest in peace to the generation that will not pass away, he planted a seed. The thinkers in the audience will ponder, at least a little, what he said. For some, this will placed on the "List of things JW, that make you go hmmm", that every JW has.

An important difference between atheists and true believers

by Hortensia in

true believers, whether christian, muslim or whatever, want to convert you, they want you to believe what they do, and they're willing to go to extremes to make it happen.

atheists don't really care what you believe, and don't go out of their way to convert someone.. http://ow.ly/vn1jz an example of what believers in power do to suppress any difference in thought.

http://ow.ly/vraeo an example of why believers want to suppress different ideas (because they can't win in a fair fight, that's why).

I'm a theist, I guess that is the technical term. Honestly, I love Tammy, but when it came to her or Shelby's posts, I usually couldn't make it past the first sentences. I've seen the dead horse kicked around here until it is nothing but bone fragments and pulp. Not just by theists, but by both (atheists and theists) and all points in between.

Glad you did, too. It's been a profoundly sad week for us, with Anthony's suicide (?) death.

Is my clinging on to a belief in a Creator doing me any harm?

by KateWild in

i use the word clinging, as i feel that is what i am doing.

as far as my knowledge of science, namely chemistry is concerned, i am satisfied there is evidence of a creator.

i am happy to believe this.

Kate, one of the kids in Julian's circle took his life a week ago Saturday. He was diabetic and tired of living his life with it. He was deeply depressed. One of the things he did was to overdose himself on insulin. I was doing some research about how an overdose of insulin kills someone. I came across this article and I think you will find it interesting, especially the ending paragraphs. I'm not giving an opinion, either way on it. I just found it an informative article and view of things. http://www.arn.org/docs/glicksman/eyw_060601.htm

So again, the problem is when atheists act like Christians?

Evangelism is not synonymous with being Christian. It's ironic that some people who disdain evangelistic type behavior, don't see it in themselves, even after becoming atheists.
