Hmmm.... If it is safe to enter the realms of speculation... Bizarre Mormon speculation at that? ... Sounds dangerous... I don't believe Jesus is the Savior for only our earth, based on that The Book of Mormon describes Christ's sacrifice as an "Infinite Atonement." So, I'm going to specul...

I voted yes on the school vouchers. It wasn't for any of the reasons they were advertising, though. I voted for them mostly because when I pay my taxes for education, I believe I am paying for a students education, not a gift certificate that can only be used at one place. Amka, you only had State R...

I am 24 now, and I joined at 18. ... I usually think of others as the same age as me, unless they talk about High School (so I realize they are younger) or talk about their really cool professional-sounding job and/or family, and I get the impression they are older. ... I'm actually surprised by a l...

What if we met aliens and couldn't understand each other, but we tried to convert each other anyway... then we killed each other ... and then it turned out we were both Christian to begin with? ... Wait, haven't I heard this sort of thing before? ... :) As far as my own beliefs on the original post,...

Last week I was reading MegaTokyo through the archives. When Kimiko stood up for Piro on the radio, (in and around #700) that was the most depressing thing ever, because that's just like me. I need a freight train of hints before I can gain enough courage to call a girl. It was like the internet was...

My VCR automatically changed the time back... on the last Sunday in October. I couldn't figure out how to change the time to the real time, so I just had to change the time I had the recorder set to record Heroes an hour earlier, and then an hour later the following week when the VCR finally was the...

... Hiro=Kensei of Legend was predictable from day one... Except, as I saw it, only Yaeko thought he was Kensei. As Hiro describes it, Hiro is actually the dragon. Nice twist, I liked it. I wonder if Peter was reading his own mind when he was able to remember his mom... It was making the "mind...

When I was five years old, I was too afraid of disrupting the space-time continuum by meeting my future self. Actually, it probably wasn't until I was six that I had that fear. Is there a phobia for that? I still have it. In any case, I was too terrified to talk to people back then. It wasn't for a ...

Hmm. . . Rita Skeeter wrote about "the whole Potter-Dumbledore relationship." Apparently she was only half-lying. I am more surprised that fans seem to like the announcement than the announcement itself. Will people cheer if she says she's "Bigger than Jesus," too? Don't get me w...

A guy in my database class showed me this xkcd comic.

Well, I guess that rules out my Sylar-is-in-an-illusion theory. Apparently, it was just some Central-American forest he was in. Oh, well. I'm still hoping Candace faked her own death, and that she really isn't an idiot. I guess if we never find out, then that will be the case. Sylar: My name is Gabr...

I've been following this, but I haven't been posting anything, since I am bad at Philosophy. Most of what I wanted to say has been said by others, and these people are more capable of debate. But, here is one of my thoughts. On the ordering of existence and nature of God: If one is going to try and ...

I remember Sliders. I don't have cable, so I guess I'm glad I didn't get to see it ruined. I watch Red Dwarf sometimes. I really liked that one where time went backwards. Are they making any more? Anyway, shows I like that no else seems to watch... Doctor Who -- I know quite a few people here have s...

I always try and vote. I try to inform myself on the issues. Last month, there was a Primary election for the city council where I live. I went to all the candidate's websites. I'm also disappointed that local politics don't get as much coverage. All they say on their websites is the same thing, you...

Ah, yes. I loved this episode. I like the suspense. I can't say yet whither it is better than the 1st season or not, but it seems each episode is better than the last.

Occam's Razor says that the simplest explanation tends to be the right one. Therefore, only the messages prior to Jayelle saying, "This is the most stereotypical internet thread ever." are required for this thread to be the most stereotypical internet thread ever.

I think the real question is, How exactly does one support the troops? ...Pay taxes? Or what? I went over this... Okay, I assume you mean this post? Support the troops: BRING THEM HOME! But seriously, that really sums up what I feel. I have an opinion of the war, and I'm working towards realizing t...

Slim

To me, the reason we are supposed to support the troops is because few supported the troops in Vietnam. When they came home, it was to a country where the majority hated them. Sure, we don't have the draft anymore, but that's no excuse to give them the same treatment again. It's kind of like, these ...

Lol, I just realized that I didn't put a link to the text-version of the color code test that I found. Okay, I fixed it now in my first post.

When I joined on ye olde p-webe, there were a lot of people that had mile-long signatures. So, that's why mine is what it is, even though now sigs on the board aren't as long-winded as back then.

In college the other day, our teacher had us do the Color Code Personality Test. That wasn't my first time taking it. Most of you probably already have heard of it, and likely have taken it before. If not, you can take it on The Color Code website , but it makes you create a profile, and it doesn't ...

Reworking black stereotypes, That's what I heard, too. Looking at that Trailer, though it didn't seem so bad. Hopefully you are right, that they tone that down. I hope they are able to be more creative with the cavemen stereotypes.

This isn't a thread about the general concept of the meaning of life, it's more about personal meaning. That actually is an interesting way of putting it. Because I believe there is a purpose to life in general, but it is different than my own personal meaning for my life. I see myself having a lot...

But I feel that that decision should be a very personal decision. Does that mean that you support choice? Or do you support a legal ban of abortion? I guess I'm sort of in between on how government should be concerned with abortion. I don't think there should be a "ban" on abortion. Altho...

I finished the book a couple weeks ago, and I only just now got around to reading through this spoiler thread.

The question is often asked, "What would Jesus Do?" Before I read the Bible, I probably would answer, "He would just use his Godly powers to pwn everyone!!!" After reading the Bible, it's actually a different story. Jesus Christ is so humble about everything he does. On my missio...

Yeah, I've been looking forward to this movie for a long time. + I liked that it was very much like the TV show. Just as funny, and just as quotable. - I felt Bart's nude scene was inappropriate even for The Simpsons. I laughed anyway, though, so I feel guilty. Yeah, it was great. I give it 4/5 stars.
