WITHTEETH

well, here is a simple argument, what if somebody pushed you forward and you didn't want to move forward, and in fact, you were resisting. Do you have full power over yourself now? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Mentally you are not determined. If a Hurricane hits you, your gonna die i bet, you cannot defeat death. But even if your stripped of everything, even your hair, you still have the choice. Even if your in a concentration camp, you have the choice to how you think. Some people will submit and do exactly as they are told, but strong individuuals, such as Frankl, Ghandi, Nietszche can't be broken, they are free. They didn't submit. So why should you? Do you believe Nazi soldiers are not guilty for killing their own country men? they had the choice to not do so, few made that choice to leave, and not kill. Those who chose not to kill and not be prejudice are the strong. Strong people are rare, they are free, and knowthemselves. The world is theirs, just ask napoleon.

THe normal person can be a God if they choose to. They have the Choice, but with that choice also comes great Responsiblity. You are now responsible for your own actions. You can't blame God for that is bad faith, there are no excuses. You bare the weight of everything you do. You are an example, a God.

I still disagree with you. We do have power over each other, Its just matters how strong the individual is. Besides, even if you don't have power over yourself you might as well think you do. Or else you think your just an object, a tool, a cork in the machine. It may be unhealthy, and certainly not optimistic. Dostoevsky who is also a Christian disagrees with your assumption also, He has wrote many great books, I think Nots from the Underground goes into this very deeply. He is also an existentialist.

Well slap my ass and call me suzie! Your right! BTW, next time when you tell someone they are wrong, It would be helpful to leave a link, as positive evidence.

Stop feeding him.

No, the lost chapters is exclusively for PC as it was originally meant to. The lost chapters is Fable but with 25% bigger i hear. Rumor is is that it doesn't make the game much better really. I hear mixed reviews. Some say its great, some say soso. Only way to tell though is if you give it a try!

Yep, Men(and woman) seem to rarely ever have a completely original thought.

How come he can have pitcure of guns, but i can't have pictures of boobs? Its not fair!!!

I disagree, I have control over myself. We always have the choice, if nothing at all. Humans are not always rational beings. When i go out to eat, i normally get a pop. Why do i get a pop? Water is free and Healthy, pop is neither. I have the freedom to choose, so im going to do it my way, Im choosing pop because i like the taste. Its just a matter of taste. We have COMPLETE freedom of choice, with that choice we will choose what WE want, not whats rational all the time. The more we know ourselves, the more we can defeat natural law. So go out and discover yourselves!

CAT ATTACK! CAT ESCAPE!

Uh... they probably never existed. ^_^ Dorks

I think we should be able to sacrifice virgins, like all the people on this forum who have made fun of me at some point of time....

I think we should be able to show adult pictures

(w00t) (w00t) (w00t) ROTFLMAO!!!! Hilarious Jaguar!

I love the mouse and keyboard combo. Control is awesome. If Consoles can do that right. I might have to seriously think about getting one.

Psychology is good fun, very enlightening! Hope you like it Mothman.

Go wherever love takes you bro! Love can be the greatest meaning to life for some. :cool:

May i ask what was the catalyst to the events to you losing your faith? Have you been reading or discussing anyting in paticular?

Are you refering to Logotherapy?

But it was for Padme' :'(

Have you ever read A Mans Search For Meaning by Victor Frankl? Its a great read. Basically it talks about how most suffering is because of a lack of meaning to it. if you add meaning then the suffering is bearable. It gives many examples. It also states that man has control of himself. The situation doesn't control the man. He was a psychologist and a neurologist. He was in concentration camps to, the concentration camps were a big influence on this book. His study is called Logotherapy.

Don't hide your true feelings! :'(

Burn! I think Gabrielle needs a hug! :D

24 right? Happy b day man! :cool:

Heads up Child of Flame You can look at this in two ways: the glass is half full, or half empty. Everymind is uniqe because each one creates a different view on reality, we see what we want in a way. We believe what we want. It comes with our freedom we have to choose whatever we want. So we are condemned to be free, is that such a bad thing? Maybe our viewpoints on our beliefs was meant to be our own. Everybodies belief should be their own uniqe reality. It sounds to me you discovered your very own world, and took one step inside of your world. You can make the most of it, or you can run from it. Whatever you do to it is your choice, you can make it rich, or desolate.
