Steve5380 Posted October 5, 2021 Report Share Posted October 5, 2021 To be older does not mean losing all interest in sex. But having less urges and more free time can expand the scope of thoughts into more esoteric subjects. Here is a video that questions the existence of life after death. An interesting subject, I think, especially for someone a little older. As an agnostic, I have still an open mind about this subject, and I find that the narrator here has an intelligent perspective of the subject. OF all the interviewed, who left me thinking is the first one, the theologian Greg Boyd. It seems that for all the things we have longings for, we hunger for, we crave, like sex, food, air, water, money, power, etc. etc, these things have a reality. And we also crave strongly for our survival after death. Why should this craving be an exception? If all the others have a reality, why should this one be false? Why would we have evolved this desire to survive death if there is no reality to this? I think that Boyd has a good point, and his question has cracked open a door in my mind towards afterlife. I'm still not worried about an afterlife, maybe I will never die... but this could be a beginning. Perhaps I'm not the only gay, young or older, who finds this interesting.

This may possibly come because you already feel old, even you might be further away from 80. You need to have a look at the thread i recently started about "Talk of a LONGEVITY EXPERT". This expert, David Sinclair, may disagree with your idea that 80 must be old. He sees "oldness" as a very variable number of years. What counts is your "biological age". Maybe your biological age is more advanced than mine (!!). This can be easily explained comparing my healthy lifestyle with your stressful work globe trotting, living out of your luggage, and engaging in excesses of lunches with much wine. If this is so, I should address you with more respect as an older person than me, since I am a respectful person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why suddently so melodrama and morbid in your view. If death is final is only a melodrama, morbid subject if your gut is upset with the fear of death. I don't have such a fear. I have a curiosity about what comes after this life, a curiosity I have had since childhood, stimulated by my Catholic education speaking of heaven and hell. If you have read this forum, you must have encountered many discussions about Buddhism dealing with karma and reincarnation. The subject of this thread is no different, just without the religious overtones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have criticized guests for hiding in the double anonymity of not having a registered alias here. But I am one of the few members who supports the existence of guests, and I recognize that some of them are good contributors to the forum. "Guest eye" wrote something that you must have recognized as true, since you tried to brush it away on the excuse that he is a guest. Well... I second Guest Eye in his opinion, and I am... a Member who has much more seniority and recognition than you have! ( I remember that it was ME who encouraged you to become a member. It was ME who kept you here when you made a tragic departure because you could not stand some alleged "wrongs" against you, which were not such, and I brought you back by apologizing to you for the alleged "wrongs" against my sincere belief that I had not wronged you at all.

Flexibility is one of the qualities I cherish in my senior years and recognize as a positive mental state. This flexibility is what I notice in my thoughts about religiousness. As I wrote before, and as a motivation to start this thread, I notice my agnosticism shifting further away from an atheist position and instead becoming curious about themes of religion. I like this series "Closer To Truth" on YouTube, hosted by Dr. Robert Lawrence Kuhn, an authentic intellectual. This following video "Can Many Religions All Be True?" has weakened a little my thinking that the existence of many different and incompatible religions is proof that they are no more than fairy tales. Now I think that they may be "a tiny little more" than fairy tales. Edited October 29, 2021 by Steve5380 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve5380 Posted November 3, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2021 Soon we will know who gained the Virginia Governor elections. It seems to be the GOP! Soon Biden will be back from Europe and confront the destiny of his agenda in hands of the democrats. American politics can encircle one with an atmosphere of ugliness. Cocks are interesting as always but the pandemic has somehow moved them to second place. So I keep interested in cocks, entertained with music, with exercising, with health, somewhat following the politics here without getting depressed by it, and my mind has still plenty of free space to be entertained with more transcendental thoughts about the universe. I continue liking these YouTube episodes "Closer to Truth" and I find myself much in agreement with the person who narrates them, Dr. Robert Lawrence Kuhn. I find worth my time to reflect on an interesting subject: "Can the Divine be a Person?" The personality of the three-headed Catholic God is so fresh in my mind! More than 8 years in Catholic schools!! But thanks to my agnosticism I can put these images aside and explore other options. These reflections of mine are not so seriously dry. They have their humorous facet: WHAT these important experts have allowed their heads to accept as beliefs! I don't take their expert opinions at face value, and I don't lose my sleep over them. (I don't lose my sleep, period!) Maybe you also want to form an opinion, watching this video: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is nice to reach old age still good looking and physically functional. But nothing is more important to preserve than our mental health. A person with dementia, Alzheimer disease, is really, really sad. And this is usually associated with old age. "Dementia is preventable through lifestyle. Start now." is a TED type video by an expert in the field. Yet he gives a disclaimer that he is not giving medical advice. But in my irrelevant opinion, he touches on many proven facts.

I am very pleased with older age, to the point that I think that it is becoming the happiest period in my life. What I do here is trying to encourage fellow gays who are afraid of old age to look into it and realize that it is worth to lose the fear and see it as something worthwhile.

Guest Outcast Posted December 31, 2021 Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 Gay with dementia won't be able to use computer to tell u about it. Thus you won't know. But there are greater issue, they probably disappear for many reasons no one knew. May be other priority ihas became more of their concerns than to be out and about displaying their gay presence and other possibility could also be they sought some forms of religious refuge and not to be seen publicly. I am more worried majority have accepted rejection in old age and beacame an elusive lone wolf outside the system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he speaks of the benefits of FASTING, one of my favorites lately, ha ha. Bon Appetit! Focus on ailments that affect men beginning in their mid 50s. ED, prostate enlargement, frequent night urination, loss of muscle mass, sarcopenia, loss of body hair as testosterone levels decline, which doctor to see for ageing problems, do you need to see an endocrinologist, geriatric medicine, building and maintaining muscle in your later years. Love in your twilight, Autumn and Summer age difference relationships, facing terminal illness, how to exit life. Many many topics to cover...... Please feel free to add on.

Thank you Moderator. You have already put my name to several threads. But I don't deserve to " be the owner " of any thread. All I do is merely to start a conversation. All the threads belong to you and the other Moderators, since you have absolute control over them. And no gay person should be restricted or restrict himself to a single topic, but our interests should encompass the whole universe, and be a universalist like Leonardo da Vinci. ( by the way, wasn't he also gay? ). Besides, I also have to take care of the child in me, who is not interested in old age except with humor. But I will respect your wishes and propagate and discuss the issues relevant to seniors in this thread. Maybe you could rename it "Geriatric Thread" ?, although this would give it a somber connotation. .

Steve5380 Posted December 31, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 On 12/30/2021 at 11:24 PM, Guest Steve's Advisor said: Thanks Admin! Hi Steve, I actually blocked you to avoid reading your comments in the posts I'm following. However, when others replied to out-of-context posts, the entire thread went out of topic and some die prematurely. Not only that, can you imagine if one person wasted 1 min of his life reading your non-relevant comments and your royal trolls, how much lifespan of the members is wasted when you are practically in every single thread. If you do not have a new year resolution for 2022, here's one for you. Keep your comments to this post specially set up for you. Don't make life difficult for others, it's already very hard now. Happy New Year! How can you be a Steve's Advisor when you block all my posts? You should read all of them and follow me so that you can advise on how to correct my serious shortcomings, my malevolence, my perversions, my abominations. And you should post after me and return threads to their original topics if you feel that I diverge from them. But also recognize the ASSOCIATIVE power of our brains that make strong connections between topics, keeping our minds flexible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have never heard of this prevention of dementia theory before at BW. You should claim ownership if it. It gives a beautiful justification of the gay lifestyle, which should be used to confront the condemnation of homosexuality by the sanctimonious. This reinforces the belief of some of us that the attractiveness of sex exists in us not only to stimulate procreation but also to give us a free unlimited source of joy, of pleasure, like we are given free and unlimited the air to breathe. On the other side of the coin, it is known that dementia dooms pleasure. This means that even if we are gay, we should take the best precautions to avoid dementia: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2021/04/210412101903.htm .

Steve5380 Posted December 31, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 On 12/30/2021 at 10:14 PM, Guest Wrinkly looking said: I kinda agree with Steve about his preventative measures. The only thing I don't agree with him is about doing Botox and surgery. Wrinkles can be beautiful. It painted a rich history about that person and every line tells a story. Same for a dick, it changes its tone and texture thru the years and still look gorgeous thru our naked eyes Thanks for agreeing. And I agree with you in that I also like to see old people looking very old. This increases my respect for them, since the wrinkles are the badges of honor of a senior that indicate wiseness and resilience to make it through the penury of being a living creature. I wish you a long life before you start to have any issue with wrinkles. By then, you will still find the wrinkles OF OTHERS beautiful. But will you feel the same about your own wrinkles? Unless you want to be wrinkled to draw the respect and consideration given to seniors, especially in Asia and not so much in the US, you may find that each time you see your reflection in the mirror, it takes away some of the youthful feeling of being still healthy and able to do whatever you want. And it can happen that you even FEEL some deep wrinkles and tensions in your face. Believe me, Botox is not such a bad thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singalion Posted December 31, 2021 Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 Steve5380 you could do a youtube series or zoom webinars on this topic! Actually you are the first guy who is writing his memoirs openly in a forum... Unfortunately nobody is paying you millions in advance for your memoirs like what they did for Clinton or Obama... I wish you all the best for your future endeavours... Health, success and happiness.. Steve5380 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
