This is false equivalence. What does not believing in heaven/hell have to do with being a person with morals or empathy?
Does BGOL have even one religious person who can answer one simple question here?

? Hopefully you feel better now.
They don't seem to feel any special kinship with us beyond what they think we can do for them. I live a slightly privileged existence here, but not even comparable to the perks I'd enjoy if I were white. The most pervasive and enduring dream of most African women is to bear a white guy's mixed child. Fact! Not your child or mine. I have met Africans I like, but I'm careful in the subjects I'm willing to discuss with them as I resent coonery and it's the soup of the day in most of Africa. I'm here, not because of the people, but because of the lifestyle I can afford to live in comparison to how I'd live in the US on my retirement, savings and pension. It will only get better and cheaper if I make the move to Egypt that I'm seriously considering. I like Africa and I like many Africans, but I struggle to "love" either.
How could I not? Reading that retarded shit you wrote in complete earnest had me crying with laughter. You could brighten even the darkest day. Thank you, again. Feel free to share more anytime and I'll make sure more people hear about it - you should start a podcast.
I am not sure how to respond.
In one sense, I completely understand, as I have been trying to find a place where I can afford to eat and buy toilet paper at the same time. Unfortunately, most of the desirable places are too expensive for me to survive without working (Canada would be my first choice).
I have considered the Caribbean, but I find the attitudes, mind set, whatever you want to call it, is similar to what you describe here. If I were willing to settle that much, I might as well move to Mississippi, buy 40 acres and call it a life. Maybe settle down with a woman the size of a small steer, until such time I can't take it anymore and put a shotgun barrel in my mouth.
Would I be correct in assuming the people where you are tend to be on the religiously devout side? They damn sure are EXTREMELY CATHOLIC through South and Central America, which is part of the reason I have not settled there. I think Asia might work out for me. The people are far less aggressive, and it is the least expensive place I have found. Coonery is not an issue, as nearly everyone is Asian, and most seem to want to live and let live. Of course there are exceptions, but that is the nature of this reality.
It means you have to fend off these kinds of statements, no matter how many goddamn times you explain in excruciating detail, because all the devout understand is that YOU are the confused one.
This is how you defeat the Unholy Roller:
Don't engage in conversation with the Roller. Every response will be some non sequitur that he has pulled from the annals of the scriptures he has read and re-read, but never understood.
If the Roller feels threatened, he might begin to offer to pray for you, or even begin to sing.
In extreme cases, an Unholy Roller, confronted by inescapable logic, will take on the Ghost, at which point his behavior will become completely unpredictable.
In short, arguments about religion, particularly when dealing with Christians, Muslims and Jews, should generally be avoided for those with weak constitutions and limited patience. Just like a ouija board.
If you were gonna die today would you spend your last few hrs trying to convince random strangers on a message board that their religion might be false or would you spend your last hrs with family, enjoying the last lil bit of breath enjoying the world? This was my point who cares what a bunch of strangers think, I would be out having fun, enjoying my love ones company, etc.. I didn't say go rape, kill, steal, I said live life to the fullest
Asians in most countries are some white worshipping mofos. Go walk down the street on a sunny day in Cebu or Manila everybody has an umbrella, ... not cause they expect rain, but instead, to keep the sun from darkening their skin. My GF here is Kenyan. She talks a good game cause she doesn't want to offend me, but I see through her bullshit. She hates her dark skin. If I offered to finance a series of glutathione injections for her, she would leap at the opportunity! I feel you about the Caribbean mindset. Coonery times ten... even naming white beauty queens in Black countries. Sad. Most Africans have a trans-like fixation on white jesus. A helluva lot of amerikkkan knee grows aren't much better. One thing is for sure. If you can't survive on the money you have in Kenya, you'll probably not survive anywhere. A few countries in the far north of Africa have cheaper costs of living but Kenya is near the bottom of the scale. Plus, it's a lot easier to live a minimalist lifestyle here. Not many people to impress since most of the country lives minimalist whether they want to or not.
Good.
