| The universe has no meaning other than what humans attach to it. The things that are dear to us are attached to the universe in the same way that potato crisps are attached to the bag that contains them. There is no valid empirical proof for the existence of God, and mere belief is not evidence. |

| I'd be tortured and executed as a witch for sure. I'm left handed, that alone would be enough to get me killed. 10 signs you may have been accused of being a witch: 1. Are you a woman? 2. Do you have a pet? (Bonus question: Do you talk to your pet?) 3. Do you have a birthmark, mole, or wart anywher... |

Being a Nice Guy™ is an almost sure way for a man to be permanently Friendzoned, and you cannot build trust with people with whom you have no relationship.
The OP is suggesting ways to work around these obstacles. |

D&D, GURPS, Traveller, and several others. I am now living on a farm in rural Philippines. There are no game stores nearby, so finding gamers is nearly impossible. A few of the nephews/nieces have expressed interest but they are all 40 km away. Bummer.
