[Trolling]**Religion insult here**[/trolling]

Now on a serious note, this isn't Duke Nukem So I doubt anything too major will be shown. But I like most say, The more the merrier.

Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?

Then he is not omnipotent.

Is he able, but not willing?

Then he is malevolent.

Is he both able, and willing?

Then whence cometh evil?

Is he neither able nor willing?

Then why call him god?

This is going to be my last discussion on this subject, it's quite difficult discussing hot subjects, with out someone getting all offended, or going nuts etc.

Although I would like to point out, has it ever occurred to you that religion isn't the problem? Nor has it ever been. "Humans" are the problem :)

We cause countless wars, steal, attack each other over petty differences list can go on..... We are the problem not religion, I don't know why we can't see that.

I say if you want to be a Christian, Muslim, atheist etc.. so be it... We should just accept some of are differences and get rid of the crazy nuts on both sides ~_~

World would be a paradise with more moderates!

There is no such thing as an Athiest. You have a god, be it yourself, someone else, something else and so on. Everyone haws a god.

Everyone takes comfort in something.

Personally i take comfort in science, because it actually helps us. If we all blindly followed religion you'd never be playing crysis 2, or probably even be alive. Religion is an important step for humanity it seems, all tribal races have some form of religion due to it being the first step in explaining the world. The latter is scientific, when we start to REALLY learn about the world.

Anyways, the rating will likely be for nothing major, but still, if it offends you so much to see a 'partially naked' virtual human body compared to, say, killing one (say whaaaat?), then by all means don't play the game.

P.S. Athiest means to not believe in a invisible magical maguffin that created/governs the world. There are as many athiests as there are those who are a little ahead of the primitive curve.

Heres a quote I found....

"You are now aware that life is full of ****. You are now aware that no one besides a select group of people gives a **** **** about human achievement. You now realize that nearly everyone just wants to have a **** family and die a "happy" person. You now realize how few people actually find meaning in things bigger than personal life.

We are immersed in a hopeless shade of mind fueled by materialism and personal gain. Our future is foreshadowed by the rapid decay of intellectual society. We are doomed to fall victim to the corrosive infection of personal happiness and profit. Science is all that humans are worth, and the most common of men would sooner seek employment for a secure future than acknowledge that fact. The few who choose not to resign their lives to a counterproductive cycle of perceived happiness and family are looked down upon by the common man.

They ask him, what kind of man puts his work before his family? The true scientist will answer that his trade transcends the definition of work, and precedes the families of the future. The man casts aside this reasoning, infuriated with the seemingly irrational perspective of the scientist. The average man, enemy of science, proprietor of a shell of life worth nothing more in the end than the bones he is made of. The family man, the business man, the salesman, the working man; consumed by the vanity that is material accomplishment, wasting their lives in a rush to succumb to the inevitable succession to the children who will only repeat their mistakes.

Dedication is science. Abandonment is science. Cold, brutal honesty is science. There is no sacrifice given to science. The sacrifice is giving one's life away to the pitiful existence that is the average human. Scientific accomplishment is the most necessary of all pursuits, the most fundamental and the most significant. We sacrifice nothing and gain everything in its pursuit."

Very true Mr.Spooky. Science is the only 'godly power' that humans will ever witness, and it's all us.

Wrong. If there is a god, I would be him. Since I am not god, there is no god. And there never will be. We just happened to surface on this planet because this planet can sustain life.

To you, you are god. A god is something you put your faith in, and you put your faith in something, or someone.

Wow. I would make a long (And detailed) reply, but I can already see that it would be a waste of time, because a group of immature kids think it is okay to be inappropriate, rude and bluntly ignorant. I was asking a simple question, which does NOT concern you. Any of you for that matter.


i am far from a kid. but you put your head on the chopping block pal. and i gave you my honest answer. and for future posts, if i were you, i wouldnt ask stupid crap like that out loud. you know you will get harassed.

Guy asked a simple question?

dumb as it was! a simple, Referal to ratings would have suficed instead of all the nonsense i see here,
u ppl know what i mean it would have been easier all around to just pass this one over with a simplified answer'
absolutely no need at all to yank the plank and turn it upside down,
better yet, if you think the guy just loves to troll then better he is ignored i think.

In my examples i was refering to Chrisianity and maybe in specific catholism. and its true there always will be people nut people on both sides. My point was its weird to approve digital murder, molestation and generel dismemberment and get all upset about maybe 1 nipble in digital picture and reading those responses al lot of people think the same.

I consider myself a Atheist and i wouldnt call it a religion cause i worship no god or other divine power. i would refer to Creationism as a religion as they think there is somekind of higher power(either being a god or nature) but thats just my opinion on that

edit: @ blahblah, usefull contribution as were used from you:)

those are called agnostic my friend :)

I answered it myself. He chooses to stay here and discuss this. Probably what he wanted all along.

I smell a home-schooled christian. I doubt if he'll leave. Probably been carefully brainwashed all his life. He's drawn to this like a moth to a flame.

Christians...they're offended by the human body, unless it's full of holes and is a bleeding heathen/non-believer! How dare you accuse him of not "understanding?" I understand religion...I understand it enough to recognize the dripping irony you're filling this forum with lol. Most ironic videogame thread ever.

I'm Christian and I look at porm basically every day. lol. Luckily I'm Catholic and I can just do confession when I feel like stopping.

P.S. A mod should close this cus its basically a big religious fight.
