@Volga99 congratulations
I do hope that nobody minds me mentioning religion in chat.
I know it is quite a controversial topic for some.
Like I said, I am atheist, however this sort of stuff interests me as I like to learn about different beliefs and cultures.
Ultimately, if you believe in/follow a religion, that is cool, and if you are an atheist or agnostic, that is cool too. ^-^
God? very vague word, isn't it? Would God(s) need a religion to justify their existence, probably not. Religion and faith be two very different concepts, you see. The former is a dogma used to control one's theological potential by giving the cult's followers a strict guideline of "this or that" of what (((must))) be true. The latter, faith, requires no such restricting formalities that prevent one from asking/searching without denying the the possibility of a theological idea nor worshipping 1 correct answer for such things that are open to interpretation to one's source material.
Well, the way I see it is this. I personally think there is absolutely NO proof or logic to the existence of God/s.
I do not deny that there may be more of an explanation out there as to our existence, but I do not believe in the idea of an/multiple omnipotent supernatural being/s.
I find that religion, however, is a way that people find comfort and purpose. And whilst I am not religious, I believe my purpose is to help others. Many may say the same, and also not be religious. However religion can give some people hope and purpose, and that's totally fine.
I think it's impossible to argue the existence of a being/beings of which is supernatural, as they are not materialistic, and are rather an idea.
Ultimately, whether or not you believe in a God/Gods is fine.
😩
40 dollars for allergy pills? Thats theft
Hi
Hello.
@💙 Ashley Nowzaradan 💙 how are ye?
But pills and such you pay but its not expensive
I'm good, getting ready to go to the beach
In the UK, we have "free" healthcare via the NHS. It all comes out of your taxes, but ultimately it works well-ish.
And as for pills, you just get a prescription written by a doctor, and you collect your medication from a pharmacy.
Yes here also you pay taxes and you can see the doctor who works "privately" but you have to pay for every test he does on your body
Yes but here you have to pay that medication
Yeah, same here, though 97.5% of medical institutions are through the NHS.
And I just got health insurance which is crucial to the US healthcare system
And some of them you can get without a doctor per example ibuprophen (idk if thats what you call it)
Some places won't take you without insurance
But anything that goes under your prescription is paid for via the NHS.
Oh thats great aryn
Everytime I go to the US, even if its for a day, I get travel insurance
Indeed, Slaviis.
I was just lucky that someone higher-up at the other mental health facility that takes insurance only offered me a spot there
Back when I had no insurance
Damn.
I'm assuming that getting insured in the US is a big deal.
Yeah
Quite expensive unless you're disabled, then you automatically get insurance
Which is in my case
Since they determined me disabled back in February
Ah, fair enough.
Blaundee where did you travel when you were in usa
I've had to be admitted to several psychologists due to my severe anxiety disorder, agoraphobia and depression. Thankfully it's all covered under the NHS.
So basically, I've been for some sessions to assess my mental health. In a few months time I go back and will get regular sessions to help me.
oof
im all over the US
