Dark Moth

Auugh! Repent! The end is at hand!

It's just that he's often expressed how much he hates God, will never worship it, blah blah blah. He's never expressed belief in another deity except the God he hates. Now he says he's comfortable with his God, which I guess means he's speaking metaphorically. In which case, it makes a lot more sense. Woo-hoo!

I thought you hated God? Unless of course you are referring to Baley.

He shall be pecker-slapped at the hands of the great Baley/Jesus.

Oh boy...

What - was that supposed to be funny? Please refrain from insulting me or my paganistic beliefs.

K1 for the story, gameplay, and lack of glitches, and Bastila. K2 for all the neat new stuff, but it's characters, writing, glitches, and lack of an ending bring it waaaay down. So overall, K1.

Especially since movie scores are all basically moot. One man's 5 might be another man's 10.

Not yet, they will later this year. BTW, +50 TOMBS points for the awesome avy, even though it's dead.

Chuck Norris isn't afraid of the dark. The dark is afraid of Chuck Norris. I don't think Chuck minds so long as he's got his Total Gym.

That's where a Condom of +3 protection comes in handy.

I think the hardest part here is finding where to draw the line. How many wiretaps can one plant for "safety" before it becomes abused? You have people who criticize Bush for not doing enough to stop 9/11, but turn right around and criticize the Patriot Act.

"Hitler was on drugs" .... I guess I should give you some credit for making me laugh. But I'll tell you what, I'll bet he was sober when writing "Mein Kamph" Anyway, your trying to argue that Lenin and Mao were all noble souls becuase they tried to help their country. Hitler tried to help his country. The fact remains, these people may have had some genuine desire to help others (given their actions, it certainly wouldn't seem that way), but their methods used to obtain and keep power spurned just as many crimes as they sought to overthrow. They were no better or worse than those before them. As for your example about "democratic societies", I don't think I ever recall Mao ever apologizing for the 70 some million peope killed during China's Communist Revolution. In fact, last time I heard, a lot of people who opposed him ended up dead.

So did Hitler. (for Germans, of course)

Yeah, so that makes Lenin a peaceful, benevolent leader despite all the deaths he caused in his own rise to power? Maybe you never heard of the time in 1918 when a circus clown in Moscow was making fun of the Bolsheviks, and Chekists (secret police set up by Lenin) in the crowd pulled out their guns and shot several laughing people. Yeah, Lenin was a great guy.

They had the very same. Food to eat and money to spend. Have like read history or something? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think he has. He just may want to try not using old history textbooks from the U.S.S.R.

If it's good enough for meta, it's good enough for me. Anyway, did you have a point anywhere else in that post?

Lenin? Wow. Granted Lenin he was no Stalin, but he was no benevolent ruler. I'd suggest you read up on the Bolshevik Revolution as well. And in case you need examples, many statues of Lenin have been torn down since him being in power. One of the tenants of Communism is also the abolition of private property and a classless system. In a sense it is forced equality, and by no means free. Definitely not a prerequisite to democracy. As for your last example, in a truly communist state, if the community saw fit, you may only see $50 of that $2000.

God, I'm sorry Jorian. I offer you my most sincere and deepest sympathies. The loss of a family member leaves a scar like no other. I hope you find the faith and strength to carry on. And don't be afraid to seek the comfort and support of all those around you whom you love. Take care. "If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer. And our hope for you is firm, becuase we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort."- 2 Corinthians, 1:6-7

Rage Against the Machine - Testify

D'oh! Foiled again by the ADS!

Surely you jest, sir. The U.S. would really benefit from mandatory foreign language instruction. And it's not only western nations who do so, but easter ones, such as India as well. If I were to choose just two to be a requirement, it'd be Spanish and/or Mandarin Chinese. Heck, we can barely speak our own language, so I don't hypothesize that it will happen anytime son.
