Hello! Welcome to HOST! I believe in holistic, eco-friendly living. I’m an introvert so I love to write. I’m a female, happily married for 24 years, living in Michigan, USA. Child free by choice. Love being in nature, astronomy, birdwatching, animals. I have tolerance for people but not for people who believe they are better than others. I believe firmly in the Agree to Disagree. In the Header I had explained more. Believe in Equal not More Rights. Less Government, More Freedom. Don't believe in Woke, Cancel Culture, or Movements. They lean rights to one side. That is not Equality. I can accept the person as a human being even if I don't accept what they do or believe. I ask for that same respect, common courtesy, common decency. I am a human BEing. I don't do labels. If anybody ever has any questions, please feel free to PM me

I agree that people need to be tolerant of each other and not toxic. I love good manners on the forums.

Hello ZandraJoi, I am a Christian who doesn’t believe in some things Christians do. I’m not against gays and lesbians. Which my family supports me in my belief. I’m 39 years old and my three favorite authors are John Grisham. James Patterson and Stephen King. I love to be scared by movies. But I also live with a scary psychological illness that I have been suffering from since I was 17 years old. I am on SSI and I collect stuffed animals who sleep with me on my bed.

martin You are free to share your illness if you feel comfortable. I still sleep with stuffed animals. They are better than pillows.

ZandraJoi, I suffer from Paranoid Schizophrenia (at least that’s what my therapist and my ACT team considers me). My original diagnosis was Major Depression with Psychotic Features. And stuffed animals are the best! They are mostly dogs.

Totally agree. Humans may have different degrees of talent, intelligence, wealth and fitness but we should all receive equal treatment or opportunities in life. Countries like America with its horrendously overpopulated prison system and China with its disgusting human rights record demonstrate that neither predominantly religious or atheist nations can be trusted to have just governments. Power corrupts. I'd like to think atheist democracies would be fairer than other past regimes based on research to date but its still early days and 70% of humanity is still superstitious. Generally though the more secular a nation the lower the crime rate.

Yeah, people should be more tolerant of others and try to understand things from their point of view. The person you are talking to might just have some mental health issues that may cause them to act or write in certain ways.
Trying to be understanding and be caring goes a long way.
