about lightfoot3
About me
I don’t lie, and I despise hypocrisy. I’m very patriotic and believe in following the Constitution. I live by the Golden Rule of treating others as I would want them to treat me.
While I was born and raised as a Christian, I’ve seen the light and realize religion is a farce. While there are some exceptions, most so-called Christians I’ve encountered are hypocrites and frauds. That seems especially true on GOLO. I do not believe that Vishnu, Amon-Ra, Poseidon, Thor, Jehovah, or any of the THOUSANDS of other gods are real. They are all man-made, nothing more than fictional spooks in the sky. Prayer doesn’t work. Bottom line is that there is no God. Sorry.
By the way, I’m pro-gun, pro-military, pro-Constitution, pro-death penalty, pro-democracy, and pro-“nuking” any country’s tail that messes with the United States of America. I’m slightly left of center with my political views, mostly because of my support of the United States Constitution and the related civil/human rights. I vote for both Democrats and Republicans.
I’m a firearm enthusiast. Use to hunt in my youth, but no longer have a desire for it. I do my hunting at Food Lion. I still like shooting. I ride motorcycles. I’ve been riding over 20 years. I drive a ski boat. While I do fish every now and then, I practice catch and release. Nothing wrong with keeping fish, I’m just too lazy to clean them. Did enough of that in my youth. I like to stargaze. I know how to fly an airplane. Once in a blue moon I dabble in poetry. I like to camp. Well basically, I like nature. I love sitting on a high mountain ridge while birds of prey float on the thermals about me.
NOTE for those requesting to be friends: I REALLY appreciate the “friend” requests. I’m not thumbing my nose at you by not accepting. I just don’t like those kind of features. I prefer a totally open forum. Besides, I get a kick out of having “no confirmed friends”. :)
However, I have been considering it...

This is yet another unprovoked swipe at me, and since she’ll probably just delete any post I make, I’ll address it here. I’ve never done a post to “poke at Christians”, but I have exposed some of the fake Christians out here. When someone claims to be a Christian, yet their actions/words don’t jive with the bible or Christ’s teachings, then you know they’re fake. They’re not fooling God and they’re not fooling observant GOLO readers.

My guess is that you worry them more than others. People always fear what they don't understand and refuse to learn more about, but it may be as simple as everyone is bucking for the credit in the big house just in case 'you finally see the light and change-ah your-rah eee-vil ways'. ;-)

Light = "If a bee stings me, I don’t just swat the bee, I pour gasoline on the nest and light that sucker up."
Please don't do this to honey bees because they're endangered.
Light = "But some people just can’t let go of the hatred within their hearts."
I know and have seen this VERY recently in a hit and run message post.

BTW - I like your Halloween bucket - had the same one myself.

I was always excited though when that bucket came up from the basement. Halloween has ALWAYS been my favorite celebrated days.

My sister in law has MS and spends a lot of time in bed. She often sees the rocking chair in her room rocking while she is laying down. She has even had it pat her back while she is going to sleep.
They went out town last summer for 10 days and forgot to water the plants before they left but when they got home, the plants were wet as if they had just been watered. My neice says there is more than one as she hears them in her closet talking sometimes.

I tried to reply on your profile but I was BLOCKED because I wasn’t a “friend”. I REALLY appreciate the logic of that! :) My response is below:
What’s “funny” is that some of those complaining the loudest have also blocked and deleted comments themselves. As I said, hypocrisy runs amok out here. I personally don’t believe in such tactics, but it’s quite ironic to see someone turn the tables on those that do the same thing.
By the way, I too thought it was a shame and disgrace when people bad mouthed President Clinton.

The DIFFERENCE is that you are currently commenting on my profile!!! I have no filters or blocks or deletes in place at all. And I certainly wouldn’t complain about others doing it if I were doing it myself.
Somehow, I knew you’d come up with an excuse for not showing President Clinton respect as Commander in Chief of the United States of America.. Just like those on the opposite side of the fence do with Bush. How about President Jimmy Carter?

This is not something we hear about in the news frequently, but when we do, it raises SO many questions about freedom of religion. I wish we knew the answers, but unfortunately, I don't think there ARE answers. It's just sad all the way around.

In any case, I always enjoy seeing you chime in on a discussion b/c, as I said, you are very polite, but you raise interesting and valid questions.

I was encouraged to visit various churches/denominations. I've grown to have my beliefs, and they are very strong, but they are varied. I enjoy attending church, but I don't feel the "need" to do so to prove my beliefs. I've seen too many church-goers whom I feel are insincere.

I bought hubby a new 2005 Harley Sportster a few ago. I really enjoy riding it. We do not get alot of opportunity to ride tho...because the kids being small...I definetely take advantage of the summer and vacation bible school...That is when we usually ride. :D
I do not see how people ride those things on long trips...we can ride it for 30 minutes and it takes me the rest of the night to walk right again, LOL

In complete honesty, I did not realize how many people would not see the joke for it's simplicity as all I was trying to do was point out the ridiculousness in name-calling that seems to be prevalent here. There was no malice it, whether people choose to believe that or not.
It simply proves that I am very thankful for having the ability to speak my opinion.
