  • I’ll explain the logic as I understand it, but that’s it. I was posting for the rule and this was in my memes folder. I’ve had many religion debates and find that no one is ever satisfied on either side and everyone ends up with hard feelings. I’m not here to piss people off. That’s not my nature.

    The logic used by the author of the meme is that god doesn’t exist and that it is a made up concept to get people to behave.

    Humans want crows to behave a certain way so they made scarecrows.

    Humans want other people to behave a certain way so they made god. The meme suggests that the god concept is a behavior modifier. There are no crops.







  • Agreed. 100%.

    Sometimes though, when we’re frustrated and dumping that out, it sounds like we are saying that. It’s very easy to ‘us vs. them’ the situation.

    Example: “Oh my god! Other people remember that they are boiling water for eggs? I have ADHD and I forget and leave the kitchen to do something else all the time. This suuuucks! It’s not fair for us.” I’m sure that there are some ADHD people who don’t have to work with a technique just to cook eggs (I do. I set timers.), but there you have it.




  • I am not every ADHD person, but this could have been written by me. I had NO IDEA that you could have something be so ingrained that you don’t think about it. Even if I develop a “routine” of doing something, it is NEVER automatic. I have to put mental effort, even if small, into every task or it won’t get done.

    After reading this my definition of habit would be better termed routine. I develop a routine and I try to stick to it. Also I could have a great routine and it lasts for a month or so and then it’s just, I don’t know what else to call it but ‘gone’. It’s gone. That routine is gone.
