  1. I regret that I've not been able to spend as much time here on the forums since starting uni. I certainly don't regret spending more time getting healthy, being fairly social & spending time with my boyfriend, but I do miss this place, and RuneScape, sometimes.

    This.

    (Except for the whole Runescape thing. NEVER AGAIN.)

     

    Even though I still come every once in a while to lurk, TIF just doesn't do it for me anymore. :cry:

  2. Having the Control Column in my hands and saying "I have Control" :D Then i know it's time for business.

     

    Also a week or two ago i got home late one night and my mom and dad had fallen asleep on the couch. They were lying on each other like a 18 year old couple would. It made me happy to know that after 25 years of being married they still have the same love they had for each other 25 years back. It really made me smile.

    This. I find very few things cuter than elderly couples that still seem to have just fallen in love with each other.

  3. If you include that in physical evil, then point 5, "The origin of physical evil is spiritual evil. We suffer because we sin." would mean sin causes natural disaster and diseases - little more than blaming the victim. And still, that doesn't even seem to be true, since good things happen to bad people, and viceversa.

     

    It just seems less far-fetched to think God, if he exists, just doesn't care. And why should he? We might just be a fleeting curiosity in the huge symphony of astronomical events he created for his own delight.

    To think he'd be occupied with every moral act and every single thought of every single human not only sounds like the epitome of hubris, but it's also extremely inconsistent since he doesn't seem to be that concerned about our well-being.

  4. It's still weird to think there is free will and absence of evil in Heaven, but not on Earth.

     

    And that still only answers the problem of human evil, but you have to remember there are still natural disasters and diseases - not all suffering comes from sin. If we are here on Earth to learn and be saved, the least God could do was give everyone a fair chance at it.

     

    It's not about God "doing everything for everyone", (since you say that'd have no point), but surely the toils of someone in the middle class in a developed country are more than enough? It seems deeply unjust that some of us have been so privileged, even by nature, in comparison to others.

  5. Umm I put down Christianity seeing as how I'm Catholic, it's a branch of it :unsure:

    And um no, I'm not putting Caucasian because that's Euro-Asia decent, hell it even has the word Asian in there. Hispanic is close to that but not Latino, I just put other.

     

    All Hispanics originate in Europe. Therefore, they're Caucasian. Only Indigenous Americans do not come under this category. Mestizo comes under 'Mixed'.

     

    Feel free to put what you want, but just a heads up that you've sort of voted wrongly on an objective level.

    That's the main difference. In Latin America, colonists mixed with the indigenous populations before secluding the rest in small reserves, leading to quite different physical (shorter, darker hair, skin and eyes, etc.) and cultural differences that even lead to racism between the "purer" Caucasians and the new Hispanics.

     

    Or you could say all humans originate from Africa, therefore we are all Africans. :P

     

    [Edit]

    Mixed it'll be then, not Caucasian. :thumbup:

  6. Dunno, it seems like two different races to me.

    Besides, there's the issue of self-identification. We usually call ourselves Mestizos way more often than Caucasians.

     

    But anyway. :razz:

     

    Caucasian

    Homosexual

    Athiest.

  7. If you do not like a thread, ignore it, let it die and move on. Not only is spamming, trolling and putting down people stupid, unnecessary, but it keeps bumping the thread you so much detest to see.
