Quake 2 3. something (last patch)... DLs are on so you'll get the mods and the maps once you get Quake up again... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

unfortunately the Libertarian party doesnt get much exposure, and is often sidelined by the mainstream news, so your 'average' american has no clue about its platform or how their personal beliefs fit into it... far easier to vote the way you did last time than actually look at the issues involved... honestly i believe the voting requirements should be much stricter than simply being born to American parents and having stolen O2 for 18 years.... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

nah i think a good hog tie and duck tape in the AZ sun (not this weekend as it's cooling off) would be perfectly appropriate.. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

have to have Wendy ask some of the big brains what the rate of dust accumulation is on the moon, and whether it is directional or not..... no idea... but i'm sure there are a few golf balls up there.... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

which is exactly why bad laws need to be challenged. Break them and break them publically and often. Civil disobedence is an extremely important part of creating a system that works, and works for all without oppressing any of the principles of personal freedom fundamental to our country. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

Isaac or Ishmail... That's what it's all about.

check Kev's definition (or any of its close variants found on the web or elsewhere, you are 'stuck' on a narrow definition of the words)... it is much better to research the subject before accepting personal usages of words.. you are also insisting on the addition of 'fictional', but that is a determination that is impossible to make. All religions incorporate mythology.. it is pointless to argue about the 'truth' of any religion, as that is determined by belief, however all religions can be examined through their beliefs, dogma and texts (and even the historical actions of their followers, who may or may not be following their own text and dogma very closely). Learning to look at a religion's literature for what it is (a text) instead of what its believers claim it to be, is an important part of understanding the core values and motivations behind that religion. It is also a wonderful way to see how the ‘voice’ of divinity pervades (and how it has been perceived by various cultures) throughout human history.. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed. -

Nothing degrading about it, perhaps you should look up the definition of 'mythos', and mythology. Christianity has it, as does Buddhism, Shinto, Islam, Hindu, Taoist to a certain extent even, Toltec....not to mention the religions that no longer have (or have so few as to get no real attention, and so are seen as less 'true' for some reason) Greek, Norse, Roman, Egyptian, Sumerian, Incan, Aztec, etc... every religion has mythology, no matter how popular and accepted, or how tiny and long forgotten.... you might not like that word, in fact many believers develop 'issues' when their religion is given the exact same status as every other religion but the use of the terms 'mythos, and mythology' in reference to any religion (even modern ones you might be a believer of) is perfectly appropriate. It is your perception of the word that cause you to feel it is 'degrading'. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed. -

Thought I'd respond to this one first since it's easy and most of your others require some thought on my part. Our views are very conflicting, however, they lead to some very interesting discussions. I agree 100% with this post. I'm glad we can agree on some things, despite conflicting views on the nature of God, I too thoroughly enjoy our discussions even when the rhetoric gets a bit high... They help me refine and understand my own belief as well as that of others... I believe it is important to understand the human experience of divinity to find the 'true' nature of God, not confined to any particular faith or culture... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed. -

when i ordered my tiger stripes a few people seriously suggested it was a bad idea. Why? "because what do tiggers do?? they BOUNCE!!! " well yea but they also get back up and do it again... I certainly have several rituals i perform every jump day, and every dive, but those are related to safety, not superstition... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

for some this is part of the study of theology and faith exploration, a journey that has been going on for years and will continue for years after.. the unexamined faith is worthless... if your faith cannot stand to questioning and debate, what is it really worth? ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed. -

Pride. who is responsible for the prideful nature of humanity? That sounds like Pantheism. no its part and parcel of the three O's as applied to the christian God. Sounds like a demeaning rather than sincere question. it is a sincere question. Other than your literature, what makes you believe you are seperated from divinity at all? Or have ever been? Why do you hold yourself responsible (and therefore in need of redemption via blood sacrifice) for actions of your hypothetical ancestors (who were responding as designed) ? Why must it hold that just because we exist in the environment of a time continuum, our actions must be controlled or scripted by the force that created it? God's knowledge (and drive, if he is the prime mover) of your actions, motivations and choices is a 'script' you are incapable of deviating from, no matter what it might appear from a limited human perspective in the large perspective you either have freewill (nothing is predetermined from any viewpoint) or you do not (someone (the prime mover) knows exactly how, why, when you will behave as you do because you were created to do exactly that) and you are living the illusion of freewill due to your limited perspective.. You’re putting limits on God based on your own limited perspective. That’s a form of pride. I'm not limiting God at all. I'm following the theology and dogma implied by your mythos for the purposes of this discussion. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
