Hell yeah, because this is a sandwich rendered as the perfection of food itself. It is archetypal. It is the alpha and omega, the sandwich from which all sandwiches are forged. If a sandwiches could have a god, this would be their sandwich-god. And it flows, in a single infinite tide of wheat...

I rather liked Route Canal the most. Metrocops are shweeby. And if this includes Episode 1, then I'd go with the whole citadel bit.

No, read it more carefully. I said he doesn't need a will. And, as a result, his "will" is absolutely nothing like ours. But now that you mention it, maybe I was wrong. The will is the capacity to desire and want, so it is quite impossible to suffer longing and/or desire for something if you...

God is not invisible, or else Moses (who was allowed to see god) is a liar. Colossians was written by Paul, who was a liar. He contradicts Jesus and, here, he contradicts Moses. Lies aren't good, Walter. God also cannot be invisible because both Ezekiel and John give identical physical...

Yeah, it's too bad that Jesus was talking metaphorically about how metaphors are evil unless they support a literal interpretation of the bible's laws. :rolleyes: :P

Ezekiel 1:26-28 “Above the expanse over their heads was what looked like a throne of sapphire, and high above on the throne was a figure like that of a man. I saw that from what appeared to be his waist up he looked like glowing metal, as if full of fire, and that from there down he looked like...

I was once like "wouldn't it be crazy if The Truman Show were real?" and then I thought about it and concluded that no, that notion is stupid. It's not really "at some point" that faith gets ingrained in the mind. It specifically needs to be done to children who do not know better. If teaching...

Yeah, that much is pretty blatant. The question is why everybody know this and yet nobody gives a damn. Like I said, it's the by far the greatest and most pervasive version of Foucault's Panopticon. "The Panopticon was the ultimate realization of a modern disciplinary institution. It allowed...

Invite the police and then shoot the police and then frame the bad guys for the police murder. ADVICE!!!!

I like the part where God invented ignorance so that Adam and Eve wouldn't realize how poorly designed they are. Shouldn't have eaten that knowledge-apple; now you know that your bodies are the genetic equivalent of an Edsel! Seriously, that's the principal moral of of the Garden of Eden story.

Feel free to speak for me when your posts are of such quality. Couldn't have said it better myself. Why on Earth would anyone use a decidedly broken system from 2500 years ago as a source of psychological help? Religion is far more than just a means of attaining happiness. In fact, the bible...

Well if it's that bleedingly obvious, then it shouldn't be so difficult for you to prove the least of the things you say. Also, try to avoid appeals to authority, like the one you just made. That's fallacious logic. Finally, if you are apathetic about a discussion, please refrain from posting...

Papal decrees? Catholicism is like the most bastardized form of chirstianity. They routinely add new laws onto and in place of the biblical ones. Not long ago, the pope decried the death penalty, in direct contradiction of the entire bible. Christians don't "claim" to be an extension of Israel...

So what? The lesser of two evils is still evil. You're ignoring the third option that is far superior to both. And if you were legitimately critical of the jews, you would either agree with what I'm saying or provide valid counterpoints, because I have presented falsifiable ideas supported by...

"there's a difference with the Jews even if there were some groups that were persecuted more than us, we've survived more persecution than others." No, your religion has survived. The people were killed or were not. Of course there were brave acts on the part of individuals and smaller groups...

You haven't shown that the rules only apply to a limited audience, so this is not a valid question yet. First, please define the exact limits of the rules, as supported by scriptural references.

You understand what "at least" means, correct? You agreed that jews are supposed follow, at least, all the rules in specific contemporary situations (in Israel, etc). I argued that they must follow all the rules, and that a large chunk of the worst ones are found in Exodus which is a distictly...

Mainly people tend to post one-line responses in place of useful new opinions, and there is a tendency for people to inadequately adress my concerns, necessitating repetition. Don't worry though, I'll eventually get around to making The Religion Thread To End All Religion Threads(tm). In the...

Dude's such a failure that he's a racist attending a spanish class.

Right, so the jewish religion earns respect by abandonning the jewish religion in favor of secularism. So, in the end, your praise is for secularism, which has nothing to do with the religion at all. This isn't a case of something bad being turned into something good. The contents of the...
