Just abandon religion overall. It has too many hassles. Christianity forces you to go to mass every fucking sunday.


And, Mettaur. If you were trying to be brutal but honest, then at least be honest.
Uh, that would be Catholics. What most of the rest of us have isn't anything like that. As for forcing, it's more like highly recommended. The only requirements for being a Christian are:

*Admitting that you are a sinner. Hey I'm a Christian and I still need to admit to my transgressions.

*Believing that Jesus Christ died to cover our sins, and that he rose on the third day. This is the reason we don't sacrifice animals to atone for our sins.

*Committing your life to God. This could be as simple as providing a good example at work or for your kids/younger siblings, to actively telling people about the gospel, to being a missionary.

There are other things that are necessary to understanding what it is to be a Christian, but the above is the vital stuff needed to become a Christian. Most of the other stuff, like prayer and reading your bible, are meant to help you follow the path you've chosen. Going to church, our mass as you called it (though I think only the Catholics call it that), is recommended because it helps to have someone more spiritually mature to help you understand what you're reading and the vast majority of Pastors are more than willing to help you if you have a problem or a question about something.

As for me, personally, I have a hard time of it because I do screw up, a lot. I have done things and seen things and gone to sites that I wish I could scrub the memory away with acid, all just to forget my shame. I have fallen many, many times. I have definitely hurt my witness here and other places, both in person and through my online persona. I was and am still a sinner, but I still want to grow. I still want to show others the joy I find in Jesus. I still want to light a path so that others may follow.

Heh, kinda got off track there.
Oh I didn't mean to target Christianity specifically. I was just using it as an example.

I bet other religions have their strings attached.



And Zach, it's just a game. Chill out.

Yep, Islam and Judaism don't allow you to eat anything that doesn't have split hooves and chews the cud (No pork BBQ ;_;). Hindus don't eat beef (Most even think else I like is out). I think several others require prayer at certain times of the day and others require you to do more good deeds than bad with different deeds having different weights. The nice thing about Christianity is that while there is an ideal, you don't have to reach it to get to heaven. As I said in the rant above you accept God's forgiveness through Jesus and you're saved, for the rest of eternity.

Sorry if I sound pushy.

All right. There HAS to be some sort of software that's reading the text here and is dishing out advertisements that's relevant or related to the discussion. This is the third time I open this thread and find a religious advertisement waiting for me. I otherwise never see any religious related advertisements on this site.

Maybe God's trying to tell you something. (I'm joking! I'm joking!)

If that happens then I need to update my internet security and get a different browser.

Khorne is a lame god.
The guy doesn't even make any sense! He hates magic even thought his is freaking made of magic! Without magic (or psychic in 40K…though its basically the same thing) he would not exist. Has he got a suicide death wish to destroy himself?
Also I love that he things firing lasers and missiles from thousands of miles away in space ships is fine, but using a magic power? Why that's just cowardly!
Though i must admit…Mattaurs blender god IS impressive!

ALL HALE THE BLENDER!!!
(also, where is this nun porn L33T master mentioned and why am I not looking at it?)

Zeph I would have just liked it if you had tried to draw the bunker in, that's all I'm saying. It did seem a bit like my request was the only one that was ignored.

I don't count the prequels. Vader was and is, one of the biggest badasses to ever grace the screen. Lucas just screwed him over when he turned Anakin into a whiny teen.

As I was puking, I caught a sneeze. Let me say, it's really not that nice an experience, puking and sneezing at the same time. Just another reason to blow up France.

Edit: After heavily drinking, I have come to the conclusion statement of this big religious debate on who is teh greatest g-d! My wise words of wisdom?

Yep, that's it.

It has been statistically proven that Luke Skywalker is the baddest motherfucker in all of Star Wars history. If you read the books anyways.

Nun Porn?

I did say I signed up right?

I don't even know. Haven't checked the list.
I didn't read the few pages before this at first, so this was one of the first things I saw.

So it totally read like "I did sign up for that nun porn, right? Well, where are my popups? This requires further investigation!"

It was pretty novel. Just sayin'.

I cant take anyone in start wars seriously as a bad ass any more.

Jar Jar brought all that to an end!

And if you show me any characters from the novels, then those characters are not bad ass enough for me to have heard of, so I am not interested.

this big religious debate on who is teh greatest g-d!
There was a "who has the greatest god" debate? Also, when will people realize that they're fighting over the exact same God?

Judaism, Christianity and Islam are all based on the idea that there is only one god and that he's a jealous one at that. When will these three branches of the same faith settle their differences and embrace their similarities instead?

Of course, I can't say the same thing about Hinduism, Buddhism or any other religion that's not based on monotheism.

About Star Wars:
The movies, the original three, were great. The prequel was good, Jar Jar was a comic relief character, and he failed terribly. The animation series is not quite as good in my opinion.

The comics however are super, even though they are non canon they still follow the tradition of Star Wars, make the entire universe richer and most of the main characters in the comic books (Tales of the Jedi, Knights of the old republic) are more interesting than Luke, Anakin or any of the other great movie icons.

My favorite Star wars character, the guy that started it all and the thingy I think should be a god is Ulic Qel-Droma.



(And yes, I know the comics are purely meant to up the popularity of the games.)

My favorite character was always Sardu Sallowe;

He was insane. Appeared in a Star Wars comic (Star Wars Underworld; The Yavin Vassilika). It was a great laugh, poking fun at a lot of the in galaxy relations and giving hints to characters pasts.

Which series are we talking about?

If it's the CG one we're good.

If it's the one Genndy Tartakovsky did, then we've got a problem. That one was well done. It had a BA Anakin and Obi-wan. IT had speeder bike jousting, SPEEDER BIKE JOUSTING!!! That sequence is engraved into my memory it was that awesome. It was a worthy prologue to episode III and is, in my mind, probably should have been used as a guiding principle in making the Prequels.
