I've heard many so called atheists refer to the "soul" as if it actually existed. My question is: If you believe humans have a soul are you really an atheist? Continue

Comment by Randall Smith on March 28, 2015 at 7:30am: Well, Indiana has made the national news with the passing of its ignominious so-called "religious rights" bill. I hope they'll pay for it in loss of incoming business--conventions and such. Oh those wascally Republicans.

Comment by Joan Denoo on March 27, 2015 at 10:44pm: I understand felaine, you bloody KNOW the origin of your first name. I was trying to figure out if my old memory clue was valid. So, now I know how to spell your BLOODY name.

I'm laughing. Not criticizing. Just could let the opportunity pass for me to type bloody!

A friend of mine says "Bloody Hell" when she wants to swear.

I like your response that "Frances is dead".

Comment by Joan Denoo on March 27, 2015 at 10:38pm: Oh, of course, a bottle, as in booze.

instead of a frontal lobotomy.

Comment by sk8eycat on March 27, 2015 at 10:27pm: Joan, I bloody KNOW the origin of my first name; I've had it for 75 years, and had to explain it every year to every effing school ever went to. Also the IRS, Social InSecurity, Medicareless, and every time I go to a new doctor. I just never bothered to ask my parents why they did that to me; "Frances" was Mother's first name, so they called me Elaine from the day I was born.

When telemarketers call the house and ask for "Frances," I just say , "She's dead." They hang up real fast.

Comment by sk8eycat on March 27, 2015 at 10:18pm: I'll put a couple of Roto-Rooter links in the coffeeshack. They don't belong in this discussion!

Comment by Joan Denoo on March 27, 2015 at 10:15pm: I know I am dense. but what does

"Rather a bottle in front of me, than a frontal lobotomy!" mean?

Comment by Joan Denoo on March 27, 2015 at 10:12pm: "Francis is a French and English given name of Latin origin. Francis is a name that has many derivatives in most European languages.

The female version of the name in English is Frances.

My memory clue:

Francis > him

Frances > her

"shit in one hand and wish in the other" and see which one fills up first."

Comment by sk8eycat on March 27, 2015 at 10:00pm: Ahhh...why not? Here's your 50%

(I first heard the "bottle in front of me" line at a Trek convention back in the '70s...by the Roto-Rooter Goodtime Christmas Band. Wonder if they're still around....) Thanks for the memory.
