    *Walks in and remembers the old times at this place*

    I'll have me a Bitter Black Ale! Man... it has been a long time since I've been here... I'm really hoping to get more active again. What's new to this place? Has D3 got any better (bought it when it first came out and was pretty disappointed), is it worth trying again?

    posted a message on Xlink Kai and Original Xbox Questions
    So first, does anyone still play any of the original xbox games? Halo 2, Far Cry Instincts, etc? I would like to play some Far Cry instincts multi-player online but I'm having some trouble with Xlink Kai installation...

    So... has anyone ever set up Xlink Kai for XBMC? If so, could someone please help me get mine set up because I'm having some major issues! I can go into details if someone wants to lend a hand. Thanks for anyone who offers to help!

    Quote from Dzomlija

    Truth is not absolute.
    Are you absolutely sure?

    You are viewing Truth completely wrong, when you say,
    Quote from Dzomlija

    Did people not once believe it true that the Earth was the center of the universe? Or that the Sun revolved around the Earth? Or that if you sailed far enough over the oceans, you'd fall off the edge of the Earth?

    Truth is independent of personal beliefs, as you have well shown. Otherwise, should we say that before Newton gravity didn’t exist? Truth is not subjective, beliefs are.Truth is: transcultural (i.e. 2+2=4); unchanging even though our beliefs about Truth change (i.e. When we began to believe the world was round instead of flat, the truth about the earth didn’t change, only our belief about the earth changed); and not affected by the attitude of the one professing it.

    Quote from proletaria

    Something is "wrong," if the actor would not prefer that his action be used against himself. Someone is "bad," if they habitually use violence (except in self-defense).

    So then "right" and "wrong" are subjective to each person, rather than abiding by some absolute standard. And the only things that makes someone bad is if they are violent (except in self-defense)?

    Would you agree that Truth is absolute? Regardless of our beliefs, biases, knowledge - Truth stands as a separate entity which is transcultural (such as 2 + 2 = 4) and unchanging. Would you agree?

    I believe God exists from FAITH but because I believe my faith is more probable and rational than an atheistic view.

    There are many arguments I could use to elaborate but I think an argument from morality is a great foundation.

    Why is something good or right compared to bad or wrong? What makes something good or right compared to bad or wrong?
    Before I give my explanation, I would like to hear some explanations from you guys.

    posted a message on Help me find a game to play
    So I'm looking for a computer game that I can play for 5 minutes and enjoy, or 2 hours and enjoy. A game that has awesome gameplay and a lot of customization (I don't care in what sense, i.e. character customization, car customization.. I just want possibilities). I'm thinking something not to hard on cpu specs, I have 2 gigs of ram and a dual core processor, my graphics card isn't the best but it can handle diablo 3 pretty well... hope that tells ya something. I'm looking for something single player mostly, but with multi-player ability.

    Thanks for any suggestions guys!

    Oh I would totally agree with what you just said. It is very very versatile, and I think you'd agree 'rock' as a general term is the most versatile genre of music.

    Having said that other genres of music are very versatile, maybe not as much as rock, but also have different feelings and meanings associated with them such as funk and psychedelic, although even these contain elements of rock, a lot of the time, even these genres are laced with rock elements and phrasing patterns.

    I mean 'rock' in the general since could actually incorporate funk and psychedelic as, well, funk-rock and psychedelic-rock (maybe even progressive rock could be classified a little hand in hand with psychedelic-rock).

    When I write or play music or even just listen to music I set different feelings with different genres, probably as most people...

    Rock is just rockin and gets me in a good pumped up type of mood

    Psychedelic, pretty easy, mellow chill music

    And funk, just anytime music really

    I can't stop rambling!!! All music is anytime music what am I saying??? But having said that, that's why I love the Chili Peppers and John Frusciante's solo albums, because they mix so many genres I love together. :D

    I was defining man as homo sapiens like us and dinosaurs as big reptiles that we probably think of when we think of dinosaurs.

    And yes, there is evidence in favor of men walking with dinosaurs. Look at the Utah cave art. Also the Cambodia dinosaur engraving. And I forget the other artwork on a a King's tomb where there are obvious known animals such as birds, deer, etc.. and then a very obvious depiction of dinosaurs.

    Also, the preservation of dinosaur flesh being found, that isn't completely fossilized, that still has elasticity, that still has blood cells is becoming more frequent and the dates labeled to these specimens in the 70 million range for example are becoming less believable.

    Anyways, my point with this was to show that within science there are disagreements just as there is in religion, and obviously, in the case of history, only one set path has been fulfilled and is correct in terms of what actually happened in history, and with Christianity there is only one right way to follow God, the way he wanted to be followed according to the Bible.

    Basing on facts you say? Riiiiight.

    Wow, no. You willingly sin, not automatically. The bible teaches that 'original sin' is not right and that sin is not passed on, for example, your dad's sins are not passed to you. You only sin when you make the choice to. God knows at some point everyone will sin, not that he forces us, just that we will give in to our selfish desires.

    Actually you did have a say in Jesus' death since he died for your sins. Jesus wouldn't have had to had died for humanity if mankind would have never sinned out of their own free will. So Jesus died for you, you had a say in it, you just refuse to think that your sin should be connected to his death.

    DOn't know much about Catholicism and am not going to argue in it's favor because they hare hypocritical and wrong in their doctrines. And God and Satan never made a bet, lol that's an absurd thing to say. When Jesus was tempted he refuted Satan with doctrine and by saying you don't tempt God (because he was God in the flesh). This bet things... seriously, why do you make up stuff that you don't even know is true then role with it?

    Ha, I mean SRV def. interests me but I was just using him for a general comparison of technical skills, and I'm no where near that. I'd say I can mimick frusciante's style pretty redicuously close though in terms of his soloing style and technique.

    So ur a metal-head then? I'm just recently getting into metal in a big way, but could never limit myself to just one genre of listening and/or playing i feel

    Man walking with dinosaurs theory vs. Man didn't walk with dinosaur theory... There is evidence for both of those, backed with science, and are completely opposites of each other.

    Yes, obligation. If God exists (the christian God) then you have an obligation. Because if God exists, then you're a sinner who had someone die for your sins. You have an obligation to follow God and not reject his son he gave for you.

    Dude. If you go kill someone who's fault is that? God's? Yeah-no. You made the choice. If I give you a knife and you kill my mom, is it my fault my mom died?

    So many religions out there... Well, if you're gonna argue against a religion, argue against it, not just argue that since there are so many religions this one is very unlikely to be right. I can do the same with science theories...

    Well, if he created you then you have all the obligation to follow him. He the big boss, El presidente. He'll let you do whatever you want, but, if after knowing what he wants and expects from you and you don't do it, it's your own fault you wind up burning.
