I remember reading somewhere that some Americans had to change their name because of Adolf Hitler.

My weak?

Dying is for the weak.

WE DON`T NEED ANOTHER MOD WE DON`T NEED TO KNOW THE WAY HOME ALL WE WANT IS LIFE BEYOND THUNDERDOME

Oh boy. Edit: Was that fixing business an attempt at humour?

Or perhaps it's just because Maguire looks like a pasty geek. :D

How about Commandos?

Got milk?

I'm finally playing the Dark Messiah of Might and Magic demo. The combat is indeed worthy of the hype, in fact, first person combat has never been done this well. Also, it's nice to see the Source engine being used in a proper game. The demo has already crashed a couple of times on me, though. Hopefully, they'll fix these problems before the game's release.

Alanschu is the guy on the left with the receding hairline.

It's like Bethsoft spent all the money and resources on some parts of the game and had to skimp out on everything else.

The king looks like an old woman.

Too much sex?

I have never played the first game, so I have no idea.

Yes? What are we doing here?

I'll probably wait until they release some sort of bundle with all the expansions. And Dark Messiah and Caesar IV take precendence over The Sims. I really think all hardcore RPGers should give The Sims a go.

That reminds of the time when Tomb Raider first came out and interesting sites started to pop all over the web.

I'm not saying that. The point I was trying to make in a roundabout sort of way, is that once someone states that he believes the Bible is literally true, he is effectively getting into that dead end sort of thinking, and there really is no way to avoid it other than by losing consistency. This kind of closemindedness really gets to me. Of course, Blank shouldn't really be the object of my rudeness, as he doesn't believe in the whole of Bible as literally true so, sorry about that. It's just that someone reading the Genesis as an historical account really gets to me. Also, as I've said before, I don't put all Christians in the same group, and realise there are many different ways of looking at the Bible. By the way, on the subject of faith as a cop out, I meant it only in certain cases, specifically where people use faith as an answer to everything and as an escape from any sort of critical thought. I believe that faith is essential in our lives and that everyone has a certain measure of it in the way they approach their own belief systems. In fact I don't think any beliefs can be held without faith.

@Blank: By the way, what's the point of believing that the world was created 6000 years ago? I mean if you believe that the Sun doesn't go around the Earth, why not give up such an unimportant detail as the beginning of the World? After all, Christianity is all about ethics, not science. Also, I forgot to say earlier, the bit about the Sun is in the Book of Joshua, I think. @Hurlshot: I feel like faith is just a huge cop out. Basically, with it one doesn't have to think for himself. Life of Brian comes to mind.

In the first Book of Kings, 7.23, a large vessel in the temple of Solomon is described, including its measurements which are 10 cubits in diameter and 30 in perimeter. Hence, if someone were to beileve that the whole of the Bible is to be taken literally due to it being divinely inspired, the value of pi would be 3. So, you believe that God created the Universe 6000 years ago but made it so that it would appear to be a lot older? Why not create the Universe right at the starting point then, was He running out of time? By the way, do you also believe thay humanity was the product of a lot of inbreeding?

Darque and Gabs haven't posted pictures I think.

What does that mean exactly? What don't you take literally? What about that little list I posted before?

Female friends? We have those?

On to another subject, then: Do you believe in the Bible literally, Blank?
