Some random things: The prospering cultures of the Islamic world was repelled and partially destroyed for reasons of 'Christianization'. The crusades cost dearly on any party it touched. Most forms of scientific progress was stifled for being blasphemous, and monasteries held a de facto monopoly on any form of education. Thus, knowledge of previous times/cultures/religions was deliberately lost. The conflict between secular and ecclesical forces and the conflicts inside the church wasted ressources, especially in times when they were scarce already. etc. When all those things happened the Middle Ages were already well under way. Unless you can equate Christianity's rise with the fall of the Roman Empire, and the destruction and disappearance of Roman infrastructure, I don't see how you can say Christianity brought about the Middle Ages.

Europe was in the middle ages because of Christianity. I'd like to hear you explain this one.

I think the world and the US would be better off if the US just minded their own business and not interfere with the affairs of other countries. I was talking about Christianity. No Christianity would mean no U.S.

I'm very surprised that some of the Americans on this board think the world would be a better place without the U.S.

Baawww butthurt That stand has no intellectual basis and you should be shamed just for saying that Enlighten me then, if christianity has been so great for europe tell me one benefit its given to europe! I can think of none. So go on then! Culturally speaking, Europe survived the Middle Ages because of Christianity, and if not for the Christian work ethic, European values wouldn't have conquered the world. Basically, Europe wouldn't be Europe if not for Christianity. Oh, and Great Britain is definitely a mongrel nation, just like about every single European nation.

Would it be possible to go to other planes?

Wherever they're cheapest.

I think Zakaria is an idiot, sometimes.

I almost went into a giggle loop during a lecture today.

The fact that they won't release it 5 minutes from now.

You're still around? Hi!

I remember there was a Stargate episode with a plot similar to Groundhog Day. That was fun.

It's just that the things you criticized about RA2 are also present in RA1. I mean as fun as RA1 was, it was a very silly game.In fact, I'd say the reason RA2 was like you described, was that the devs were basically following RA1's formula.

Are you kidding?

Most impressive.

Check force software. Also, you could try fiddling around with the ingame volume settings.

It probably is due to something wrong with your system. What sound settings are you using for KOTOR2?

The problem is that if you go with option 1 to begin with, you'll never ever get option 2 at all. And if that's the case, you might as well kill all of mankind preemptively to save everyone the pain and the misery. Anyway, that we haven't evolved at all during the last 2000 years is grossly inaccurate to say the least, even if we still are by and large a bunch of hateful, violent rat bastards.

It was a stab at Tale and totally off topic. It's what I do.

You sound like a youtube comment.

It's generally a little easier to go on a killing spree with a gun than with a spoon.
