  1. Haha, well, let's see if I'll choose to abide by your judgement. Well, enjoy the server and the forum. One day soon I shall be able to return to the server, so stick around.
  2. Welcome. Another artist added to the fold. Maybe we'll ask you to do something big for the site.
  3. Welcome. I too enjoy the art in your signature. As the angel at hell's gates, do you keep people in or out? It's for future reference when I either storm in to salvage some souls or if I have to break myself out.
  4. Looks like something you'd feed a pet snake ekans.

    Banned for being like half my age. Whippersnapper.
  6. Remember MLK. He tried to lead the way. Got shot one day, early in the morning. Some say freedom is free, but I tend to disagree. Did you see that mother cry when her only son had died? Did you see those towers fall when that plane hit the wall? Some say freedom is free, but I tend to disagree.

  7. Hey Owen, what happened to this? You forgot to update it!
  8. Dreamed of having some epic adventure, but it was at the end of the journey and i don't remember much about what we had actually done. But it was one of those happy ending things where my companions and I returned to the lives we'd set aside for a while, which was enriched by our friendship and all the things we had learned while struggling to make it through. I mostly remember the fancy, expensive restaurant one man had left in his sister's charge but he came back just in time to keep it from overwhelming her and falling apart. Plus, I got to eat a special meal there, on the house. Warm, fuzzy feeling, gogogo.

    Banned because you can't stop me anyhow. =P
  10. This: the religion topic made me think of the topic of perspectives. Not gonna lie, the video is odd as fuck though.
  11. Oi, can you give a description of what your group is about? Cuz all I know is that you have a group and that's just not enough to make me wanna join. =/
  12. Oh sure, there is often an elitest tone to things Atheist write/speak. There are a lot of things to religion that we see and frown upon. But that doesn't necessarily make it less valid and really, the same is true of theists (especially those hellfire preachers). I'm curious- How do you rationalize being Protestant but not giving a shit? If you don't give a shit, then might as well not believe at all.

    well, banned for the sudden fanburst of scott pilgrim then. It's pretty random.
  14. I'm an atheist well, technically an agnostic, de facto atheist because technically it is impossible to disprove the existence of god. But I'm %100 convinced god doesn't exist so it's faster, easier to say atheist Well, aside from agreeing with Hark's view that religion is man's attempt to give his life and existence purpose, I also view it as a means of controlling the masses. It is and has been used as a tool to forge conformity- a unity of belief for the masses. Morals and ethics do exist without religion to proffer a reward or punishment for those who do/do not adhere to the relition's rules. It is also a nice psychological security blanket that lets people delude themselves into believing that have control over things they do not. Humans have prayed to god for rain, money, power, health... everthing anyone has ever desired. It gives people comfort to believe that silly rituals will actually grant them their desires. As George Carlin said, what is god's ultimate plan worth if any shmuck with a 2 dollar prayer book can mess up his plans? Wolf- heh, it's ok Wolf. Forced spirituality based on tradition/habit/command I think would be worth less spiritually than that which was willingly undertaken. There is that fine theological line between doing shit just to prove how much or that you DO believe to yourself/ other people and doing things simply BECAUSE you believe. Even if there was a god (and it depends on how you define it), I wouldn't believe it worth worshipping or as completely benevolent, nor use it as my moral compass. Hark- I don't know if any of those Nords frequent this place, nor do I know a reason for them to ignore/ not read in this topic based on the title.

  19. Old school. I've never played sorry though. Battleship might make my list just because I've seen a giant set of battlship, and instead of pegs to mark battleship hits, it holds shot glasses. Sink my battleships, plz.

  23. I love that movie. When I first saw it at Wolf's place, I'm pretty sure we ended up watching it 3 times straight. Once so I could see it for the first time, then two more times for two other friends that showed up later. xD
