Christopher - One who holds Christ in his heart. ... :-s Already knew that anyways, I go by Chris though, so blah!!

Man, get off it. The Egyptians were building Pyramids 6,000 years ago. The Earth is NOT 6,000 years old. At all. No chance. Ever. No, just no. I believe I read somewhere yesterday that the Earth could be, at the very least, a few million years old. There is absolutely zero chance that it is 6,000 years old. It's just a fact and fundamentalists are only hurting themselves believing it. How do you know Egyptians built pyramids 6,000 years ago was you there? Well probably not. So you in fact you believe the textbook or whatever it was that told you the pyramids were built 6,000 years ago. Personally I think the earth is around 10,000 years old- our dating system has mistakes the historians made mistakes in putting dates on historic events etc. If you read into it, the ageing process of rocks and fossils is wrong, and scientists do not want to admit they are wrong because there are thousands of textbook authors who would feel a touch cheesed off. In conclusion you can believe anything you want, you can believe that nothing blew up thousands of billions of years ago. And I can believe that God made each one of us in his own image and created the earth in seven days because he is GOD he does things outside of time effortlessly - something that the human mind might not ever fully understand. I'm going to recommend a book to you, okay? All you have to do is read it and it will prove what I'm saying. It's called The Bible. :o Amazing. Do you or do you not agree that when the Bible was being written, Egyptians were taking Jews as slaves? That was around 6,000 years ago, according to precious creationist theories. Now, in order for the Earth to be 6,000 years old, those Egyptians and Jews would have had to just pop into existence and automatically have a society with knowledge of language, math, and especially the knowledge to build some of the most amazing building of all time already in their head. Sorry, didn't happen. I'd wager that the Earth isn't 10,000 years old, either. People who think carbon dating is a false science are extremely mislead. It's been used to confirm things like the Shroud of Turin as a hoax aswell...It was made several hundred years after Jesus died. Or do you believe that hunk of junk is real too? :lol:

Where are all my Collosus of Rhodes homies? :( West side fo' life, yo? :(

Stormfront and groups like them are bags of hot air, and they're a bit late to the party. Even the KKK has changed it's stance from out-right hating black people to just saying they don't want race-mixing. They still say that God made people different colors so that makes race-mix-hatred okay, which is dumb, but at least they don't just hate black people for no reason anymore. Not the smart ones anyways. Your average redneck still does, which is what they are. :lol:

I would have to say the Collosus of Rhodes. Though it no longer exists today, and is depicted to be even cooler than it actually was, it's still very cool.

Hmmm... I was the priest at the Shera/Gormis wedding... So here I am looking for me in those pics while im not even in there... wasnt gormis a high lvl smith too? making rune kites if im correct. He was married rl :P and had two or three kids. And they all played rs :P Can't remember his wife's rs name. My good rl friend lummox had access to gormis's wifes account (something alexandra or something, cant remember) and he sold me some rune kites from that acc :P (there was over 10,000 steel plates at that time which was huge amount of money if alched. Oh, i miss those days. his wife was Aleshea...i got my first rune kite from her. Really? I got my first kite from her too. :lol: Got my first battle axe from Tyler11 via his little helper, Patriot...whatever his name was. Patriot something. He had a main, forgot it's name too...haha. Got my first 2h via some merchant for over a mil...Lost it soon after on my pure. :lol:

Hahahah. :lol: Man, I remember all that Haiyan stuff on here...It got pretty nasty around here sometimes. :P And something about Zar being Russian. No wait...He hated Russians...Or something. I dunno'...I remember the most inane crap.

I understand what you're saying Ragen. I'm against gay people being able to adopt aswell. I'm not sure if that alone would confuse a child horribly, but his peers would make sure he knew he was different, and that's just not good. A single parents adopting is a little different...I can see your point, but at the same time...Either that child could have one loving parent, or zero...I wouldn't bar single parents from adopting I don't think...I dunno'. Gay people, however, should be able to get married. It isn't a religious thing, it's a law thing. You get benefits for being married, and being together in the same house and stuff without those benefits isn't really fair.

In all fairness, I guess it was because I was rollerblading in front of a church, not just rollerblading in general. ...Still, very dumb. :lol:

Hmmm... going to hell for rollerblading...... either there's something you're not telling us, or they were really, really bad christians. That stuff doesn't happen here :-k If they were truely christian, they'd welcome you with open arms.... And that bolded part..... that's what the version of christianity that most people I know follow... I told you everything in full truth. I laughed at the lady at the time. I was just a little kid, too, lol. I was also told I was going to hell for saying "Damnit" on the same side-walk the church was on...Though I wasn't infront of it or anything. Absolutely true. :P OK.... either that was a VERY extreme church or something's not right. Now I know why people have a bad view of churches..... that's just ridiculous. *Shrug* Seems to be a pretty normal church to me. We have Luthern church and a Catholic church in my town...My twon has 565 people...Bit over-kill. :lol: It's not some psycho Baptist church, is what I mean.

PS2 is probably one of the best consoles ever made, whereas the PS3 is arguably with the worst of 'em. :lol: I dunno', I'm sure you'll have Blue107 here in a second telling you how great it is because you can watch Blu-ray and stuff on it, but it is supposed to be for playing games, and right now, the Xbox 360 has the most selection. If you give it about 2 years, the PS3 will drop $200 in price and the games will probably be a lot better, so then and only then might the PS3 be superior. :P

Binyam: Christianity teaches to be tolerant of all people, sinners or not. Yes, this is true. However, there is no such thing as a "good" Christian. They acknowledge it as a sin, yes, but then they also try to change the person. Telling them of their sin and saying they should change their ways. Some will even go as far as to tell them they'll go to Hell if they do not. That is intolerance, if I do say so myself. Even if they don't tell them they're going to go to Hell, still acknowledging it is a sin and then telling the person this as if they should care is intolerance in itself. Indeed, Jesus taught that you should tell people of their sins and try to help them, but he also said to turn the other cheek. Homosexuals don't WANT your help. They're happy as they are, and according to some scientists, can't help it. It's genetics. Therefor, blame God for making them that way, aye? Ah, there's a nice paradox for you...God created a homosexual to be the way he is...hmm...Of course, that is where people pipe up and automatically blame Satan, but whatever. That dude gets a pretty bad wrap for a being who has no power over us, only slight influence at best. I'm aware not ALL Christian's are total jerk-offs, but absolutely most of them are. They're pompous, intolerant, smug, snooty...Whatever you want to call their ways, they have an inferiority complex that they needn't have. What's sad is that it isn't totally their fault. They've been influenced by Church Leaders, who are usually absolute liars, hypocrits, bigots, la-de-da. Those labels could even be applied to my local Pastor, who once denied me entrance to his Church with my friend because he thought I was "bad news". Sadly for him, I'm was one of the best kids around, and FAR better than his alcoholic, whoreish daughters will ever be. But I digress...Church leader's are extremely corrupt, is my point. You have Ted Haggard, a dude who lead the biggest freakin' Christian church in America preaching against homosexuality and then leaving the church and was bagging a dude every night. That's just amazing to me. And of course, I wished to discuss that topic with people here and made a post, and if you look for it, you'll see that NOT A SINGLE Christian posted. They just didn't care to address it because it was a futile discussion. My beef with Christianity comes from a life-time of being "done wrong" by them, weither it be personally or just seeing it. There are two churches in this town, one I was denied entrance to, as I said, and the other I would sometimes rollerblade past and be told I was going to Hell. FOR ROLLERBLADING. Then you go home and turn on the TV and see people like Peter Poppoff and Benny Hinn absolutely robbing and conning people in the name of Christ. It's ridiculous. I just recoil from anything having to do with that disgusting religion. I feel that, if there's a God floatin' around in dimensional space or something...His relationship with me is mine and mine alone. I don't have to go to church with a bunch of phonies to prove it. I don't have to label myself to prove it. I don't have to be a great zealot crusader for "the cause" to prove it. It's just how it is. Apparently, the guy loves me for some reason, and that's cool. If he exists, hell, I'll love him too. But I don't need to join a freakin' cult to say that. Why do you? Edit: MY GOD. Tip.it, stop censoring trivial phrases and words. "Go-to-hell" has NO REASON to be censored.

The star-light argument for a greater than 6,000 year old Earth is actually a pretty good argument. Nevermind the fact that science is 100% sure the Earth is much older than that. Only fundamentalists, nay, INSANE fundamentalists, believe the Earth to be so young. It just isn't possible. The Egyptian's were building Pyramid's 6,000 years ago. That's not really a craft you just invent in a couple years...I mean, they took decades to build ni themselves... But I digress...The star-light argument... Yes, scientists CAN measure such great distances. Is it 100% accurate? No. I'm sure when they say "This star is 90 million light-years away." that there is a slight margain of error, but that margain of error isn't 89,994,000 light-years. All they need is a telescope and a mathematical formula to figure out such great distances. Or are we not believing in math anymore to make the 6,000 year theory work either? If we can see an object that is 4.5 billion light-years away in space, then it is absolutely safe to claim that the very point in space that we sit upon is older than 4.5 billion years. These objects exist. You're better off arguing that God only created the Earth, not the Universe (you'd be going against scripture though, lol) or that God broke the laws of physics because God is just God and he can do that. That's the circular logic that most believers use for pretty much every single argument anyways. So why stop now! At some point, people are going to have to just accept that our Earth is the way it is and it has made everything possible by itself. That's even more spectacular than God. It's more exciting. It's more interesting, even. I'd go as far as to say that isn't even an opinion. We have all these fossils of past creatures and people choose to just ignore them. It's a fact that there were previous humans. It's a fact that there were dinosaurs. It's a fact that these creatures NEVER walked together. What tickles me is people who argue against evolution due to "lack of fossil proof". Do you know how many T-Rex skeleton's we've found? Ninety. The most famous dinosaur of ALL TIME, and we only have 90 skeletons. Only 4 of them had their skulls, the other 86 were full without skulls. Do you honestly think there were only 90-ish T-Rex's on this entire planet over the time of their existence? Of course there wasn't. We haven't even scratched the surface on fossil's, so arguing for a lack of them is just silly. You need the right conditions for a fossil to form, THEN you need to stumble upon it. There's really no "finding" these, they're all pretty much stumbled upon and then exumed. A lack of evolutionary proof due to lack of fossils is just a silly argument. It's just silly. Edit: Oh yea, and the whole "Was a day really a day in the Bible when refering to God creating the Universe?" argument is crap. Who wrote the Bible? Humans. How many hours are in a day? 24, give or take a few seconds. And back then, how many? 24, give or take a few seconds. They said 7 days, and the meant 7 days. 7 days has always been 7 days to intelligent humans. Granted, a day was shorter waaaaaaay back in time, but that's not the point. Why would God say "Oh yea, I created all this in 7 days!" and expect it not to be taken literally as 7 Earth days? He didn't add "Oh yea, but a day in my time in like 40 bagillion years, so you lose!" :P

The biggest problem is old, out-of-touch, corrupt politicians running everything. I gaurentee you that a group of 100 people from this Forum could run the Congress and make better decisions than our current Congress. These people are old and money-grubbing. They're not getting crap done. But to pick one of yours: Education. I find it ironic that there is never any money in the budget for education, but there's always enough to drop $80,000 bombs on civilian complex's.

Apparently someone has never heard of the Dawn of War series. ...Or Supreme Commander... neither as good as C&C 8-) Never played that series, actually, but there is another C&C coming out soon. :P

I'd like to run a game company too and be a lead designer. I've always wanted to be an animator, but I have little artistic ability, sadly. I have a brilliant idea on how to start a game company with pretty much no money involved, but I'm not tellin' anyone about it. :D

They're not different at all. Egyptian religion and The Jewish/Christian God's religion are effectively the same thing. The "proof" for the Bible for religious people comes with the fact that it describes actual places in it that we know to have existed. Sadly for them, there is a HUGE difference between some place existing, and God being real.

So you're okay with us all living longer than you?

And too bad Australia hasn't had proper rains for years, and they are being forced to reuse sewage water and the government organised 'official' prayers in churches to get water in there quick (...) Are you really trying to say "global warming" doesn't exist? If it conforts you, even your president admits it's true. And yeah, Al Gore is a democrat. Aww, poor Australia. What do you want now? United States to burp you and give you your bottle? Get in line. Give me a break. Texas, one of the driest places in North America, has had so much snow that highways have been closed, roads have been closed. Now I know roads all over the world get closed when it gets icey, but Texas has not had a 'proper snowfall' for years. And so has Malibu. Malibu is in California, another dry place that almost never has snow. Ever. Yeah sure, let's all accuse US, because we drive cars here. Hmm, we all have contributed to global warming. Oh, wha'd you say? United states does 23% contribution to global warming? Yes, let's rely on a hunk of scrap to tell us the answers to the future. You people disgust me. All I can say is survival of the fittest. 1.) BlueLancer never said anything about the US being at fault. 2.) Those dry US places are getting snow due to El Nino. It has nothing to do with lack of Global Warming or Global Warming itself. Minnesota didn't get any snow at all until almost February...Usually we have several feet by now. 3.) Way to show compassion towards a country that could be facing a water crisis. And WE disgust YOU? Okaaaaay. 4.) Survival of the Fittest has NOTHING to do with this. That's an evolutionary stand-point. How about this - Survival of None? Or rather, Survival of the Inlanders? That's what Global Warming will bring. Hope you don't live within several hundred miles of a coast line, bud.

Drivers tests are poop. I had every down solid the night before mine. ...Test time comes...I can't even begin to parallel park. Then I make that illegal turn. Doh. I felt like a dork. I had parking down so well and then I couldn't even DO it. Lame.

Apparently someone has never heard of the Dawn of War series. ...Or Supreme Commander...

Gotta' learn how to play it, then it's actually pretty easy. You have to take into account that you can die VERY easily when not in cover. Last night I was playing on Hardcore mode with a friend and I popped up for like 2 seconds to fire at a Locust Drone and a Locust on a Machine Gun Turret absolutely obliterated me because I was out of cover too much. :P I absolutely love how easy you can die if you're not in cover. People who play Halo and run up to you and gank you with a Power Sword or sit out in the open and blast could never play GoW and be good at it. I love ducking and covering, it makes the "war" seem so much more real. I've only found TWO problems with the game, and they're not even that major. 1.) The A button is for the Roadie Run AND ducking and covering. Sometimes when running, you'll get caught on some cover and it's kinda' annoying. 2.) I dunno' if it's a bug they fixed in a patch on Xbox Live or something (I don't have Live), but sometimes my chainsaw won't rev up when something is right in my face and I'll sometimes die because I didn't have a defense. That's only a little annoying too, and isn't major or game-breaking. Everything else in the game is just great. Flawless.

Wow dude, that Mac is absolutely ANCIENT. :lol:
