Wing Commander reality

Ok, this is a very dangerous topic, it would seem. Any time now, one of those religious fanatics will come by and yell at you guys. So, just be careful not to name any religion in particular, lest I be forced to smack thee for causing trouble

(Personally, I don't mind since I'm really only officially Christian, but trust me... there's always someone who does mind)

But as for that agenda, you couldna be more correct, DH.

Nobody really wants me to start talking about religion, believe me. It was just my first attempt at a topic drift. Quite sucessful if I might add.

Here's a question, how do you defnine a religous fanatic? How far do you have to go before you are one?

I don't mind the occasional religous disscussion.

DeltaKiller: Oh, you know... dreams of death at the hands of the heathens... that sort of thing.

If you look far enough down the thread, you will find that it was in fact Hero that drifted into religions.

Perhaps you should try shifting the subject instead of drifting off the subject.
Anyone's suggestion is as good as mine.

Is it just me or do a lot of our threads have something about the Simpsons in them.

Dralthi5: Quite. Quite right, Captain. It is the Simpsons, isn't it?

The Drift can be manipulated though... at the expense of one's sanity.

I pull my sword from thy chest; searing pain strikes apon thee. Thy's fate rests with the soul, where the body rests with its own.
 
I could have written the whole oath/pledge thingy but I didn't feel the need too because the bit I wrote is the best part

I've forgot how that thing went exactly, but then again I haven't watched the simpsons for a very long time

. And I'm still trying to find that episode about RadioActive Man! It's that easy to find when you have something like 30-40 vids of it...

SNPP (http://www.snpp.com) is an utterly valuable resource for finding Simpsons quotes for online arguments and such...

Or, if you've been a Simpsons nut for as long as I have, you've already got them stored up in your brain.

I sure do love annoying the hell out of people by spouting Simpsons quotes.

DeltaKiller, glad you brought this up. No you're not crazy (in an insane sense) but rather in an extreme sense. Without rational extremeness (not the Tolwyn/Border World Conflict) but disciplined preparedness for humanity to use to train with, humanity will be less prepared for when it needs to fight. I played WC because I wanted the willpower training, the challenge of pushing myself more and more so if I had needed to go to war, I'd be more prepared (aerial combat isn't taught in high school). Most classmates at my old high school wanted me to play Bear Bondarevsky because of my temper. Actually, WC did help me improve my social life and calm me down as well as improve my spirit and aerial combat abilities -- I lined up my crosshairs on a plane instantly. The WC novels depict the emotions extremely well -- I actually got scared when I RPGed Col. Blair reading Heart of the Tiger (in regards to Angel's death) and The Price of Freedom (in regards to Seether and his genetic enhancements.

"You know? I think that the WC series may be one of the only action games that truely deals with war and death the same way that you do in real life. That`s one of the reasons I really appreciate the game.
Although I haven`t played that many games in general, I don`t think I have ever encountered a game that deals with this stuff so realistically."

I have the same feelings too. I mean, WC1 alone was realistic enough for me. I still remember the chats and emotions with the Tiger's Claw gang.
 
Warfare. I, for one, I'm quite glad our generation is yet to experience one like WWI or WWII. My grandfather refuses to talk about his experience in WWII.
To return to an old spot on this stream: I think warfare is generally caused by two things: fear of the unknown, (as in WC)and pride. (Like Hitler and the Japanese in WWII)
You may disagree w/ me, but, being a religious fanatic I'm curious as to why some believe that the authors of the Bible were a "bunch of old fools" "with an agenda."
I'm not offended, or going to declare Jihad on all who think the Bible is a bunch of superstitions, just curious.
 
I don't believe they had an agenda ,or old fools (I know enough young ones
smile.gif
) I'm just not prepared to believe that what's written in a 2000 year old book is the truth. If God's so almighty (or if he excists for that matter) then why doesn't he just say so? He's also so hypocritical (I'll save the Jews, but I'll kill a few million Egyptians, I'll give the Jews a country, but first I'l let them kill the people who already live there WITH my consent) Why the Jews? He could have made his power known to the Egyptians and converted them? And I definetly refuse to call somebody my lord. If he wants to be my lord and let me be obedient to him then he can come right on down and kick my ass into submission. I know I'm babbling incoherently here, but I really haven't got a lot of time today.

The time is near.
There are still quite a few days remaining.
