  1. No offence but seriously, sometimes I don't know who is the bigger idiot. Him for doing it, or all the people that get so pissed off about him doing it.

     

    While you guys are all pissed off, he's probably just going thru life as usual and has a nice laugh when he reads your comments.

     

    And comments like "he needs to get laid", come on, what are you? 12?

     

    If people would quit giving him so much attention maybe he wouldn't find it fun to flock with you all.

  2. Don't really see an option for me here. Some people would say I am shy. But I HATE being called shy, because I am not shy. I however AM a high functioning autistic. But I can understand how some people would see that as shy. It's just not a correct conclusion.

     

    In High school I was always very neutral, an I still am now. I had plenty of friends in the "cool people" group. And I had plenty of friends in the "Geek" group. At lunch time I would always just try to sit on my own. Being Autistic, the fact that I had to be around so many people was bad enough. But someone would always come and sit with me, be it one of the "cool" guys or the "geeks".

     

    I've never been a "Ladies man". When I see a woman I like, I like her but I don't necesarily want to go and flock her. However I've had a few girlfriends. All of them women I really cared about. You see, I only ask a woman out when I've known her for a while and I know I would like to have a serious relationship with her.

     

    Finally, I find it really sad to see comments about how getting laid is what matters. I'm 27 years old and when I was 18 I made a promise to God and myself, that I would not have sex until I found the woman I would love to spend the rest of my life with.

     

    Do I regret this decision? No I don't. It is hard, I wont lie. Specially when the chance shows up, it is SO hard to turn it down. It even sucks more when your girl leaves you because you wont do it. LOL a woman leaving a man cuz he wont have sex with her. Aint that some crap.

  3. What ever happened with the story of him being the one who caused mame.dk to shut down? Did we ever find out if that was true or not?

     

    I myself had some good times over there. But that place would easily bring out the worst in people. I myself was banned a few times because I would try to argue stuff with Tim.

     

    He would always talk a lot of BS, and when someone would prove him wrong that person ended up banned.

  4. Normally I don't eat burgers at fast food joints.

     

    If I'm going to Mc Donalds, I tend to go for a chicken sandwich. Although when I'm hungry and short on cash, I love the $1 menu.

     

    However, if I want a burger, I'd rather go to a restaurant like Famous Daves. If I can't a afford a Real Burger, then I go to a place like Culvers. If want something better but want it fast, I'll do Burger King. And if I'm in a REAL hurry, then I'll do McDonalds. Just because there is probably 10 in a square mile.

     

    When I want a Good burger, and I have the time, I'd rather make my own.

     

    75% Ground Beef

    25% Ground Pork

    Onions

    1 or 2 eggs

    Worcestershire Sauce

     

    Mix it all up in a bowl, make burgers. Oh and screw those "burger buns". I hate those, I don't know who decided that burgers HAD to be in burger buns. Use some good bread, bake some bread, if you can't bake bread and can't find some good bread at least pick up some french bread, you can find that everywhere. Toas the bread first if you'd like.

     

    Ah.... anyway, yea, that was a nasty looking burger. I mean, I normally like mine a little pink but damm.

  5. Ok Gryph. Allow me to apologize. You are right, your response to MY post was indeed civil. But it's also going further in a direction that I do not want to go. I mean, we could argue about Creation being science or not for ever and not get anywhere.

     

    You say the Flood left no evidence. I say the evidence is all over the place. Hell even the fossils show evidence to me. How you can see fossils of birds that got burried in a flying position. Something must have covered that bird up pretty fast. But that's the conclusion I'd come to. An evolutionist would come to his own conclusion and probably say that the bird died there in that position and was left like that for thousands of years. No one touched it or anything, it was just there and that's how it got covered up. Or something like that.

     

    The grand canyon, the oil that we have, dinosaurs being gone all of a sudden, these are all things that we see as results of the flood. Which again, wasn't all just a little rainning as some places make it sound. In my opinion this had to be the largest storm ever in the history of the world.

     

    But you have your opinions, and I respect them.

     

    You see, in my opinion Evolutionists twist science so that it applies to them. I mean, they find flesh and blood cells in a Trex bone and they decide to say that it is 70 Million years old.

     

    Now, come on, 70 Million years old? Do they even realize how long 70 Million years would be? Assuming that earth had been around that long, Would there really be any blood cells or flesh in this bone?

     

    To me, that is just wrong. I see the science in it, I see that they found a bone with flesh and blood cells. The fact. It happened, they found it, it's there. But in my opinion, the fact that they've found this bone like this only means that maybe that anymal wasn't around THAT long ago.

     

    But for you, you most probably have your own reasons to believe that it IS 70 Million years old. And hey, that's cool. You believe what you want, and I will believe what I want. Either way, the only thing that can be proven is the fact that the bone was found.

     

    Same goes with most evolution theories. You can't prove them. You can give examples of what may seem like evolution, something like the Liger. Getting a tiger and a lion together and making a Liger. That just proves variation within a kind. It's not a new kind of animal, it's still a cat, just a different kind of cat.

     

    Same with the whalphin (or whatever they call it). Dolphins and Whales are the same kind of animal.

     

    I've seen cases where scientists actually are able to record something happen in 10 years that should happen in 1000 years according to them, and they say that this was just a fluke.

     

    Now, here you have proof that it happened in 10 years, but you decide to say it's a fluke because it is supposed to happen in 1000 years?

  6. I just don't like people who start doing name calling in a debate no matter what is said.

     

    And Grypho, I did read your post, but like I said, you are not the kind of person I want to debate with. Not if that's the kind of attitude you will have.

     

    But if it'll make you sleep better tonight, then sure, say you won, I don't really care :D

  7. Gryphon obviously you can not respect anyones opinions if they are different from yours and you resort to name calling. So I'm not even going to bother talking to you anymore.

     

    I'm looking for people who can join a nice intelligent debate, and you aren't either nice or intelligent from what I see.

     

    As for the others.

     

    We keep going back to the point of IS creationist science Science?

     

    Again, two groups of people with different sets of beliefs.

     

    One group believes earth is Billions of years old.

     

    Another group believes earth is only thousands of years old. And there was a Flood.

     

    Now, one set of them will say there is no proof for the flood.

     

    The other set will say there is proof all over the place.

     

    Science is about experimenting and coming up with answers.

     

    Evolutionists come up with their answers. And some of them are extremely hard to believe.

     

    Creationists come up with their own answers and some of them are extremely hard to believe too.

     

    I'm not saying any one side is right or wrong. I mean you all know which side I agree with, but I"m not gonna say it.

     

    My point is science can be manipulated to work for you. How many times have we not seen full skelletons being built out of only a few pieces? Hell we had a full family of prehistoric humans being built out of a pigs tooth. Althought that one was SOO wrong that evolutionists admited it was wrong.

     

    But I know it's not the first time something like it happens and it's not the last time either.

  8. But see, here we are going back to saying creation is not science. When there are also scientists who are creationists.

     

    We use Science. We just have very different views of what caused something.

     

    In a way they both need faith.

     

    Evolutionists believe in a big bang. Nothing blew up and created everything. Now, not ALL evolutionists believe in it, but most do, and it is yet another thing that is taught in our public classrooms as fact instead of Theories.

     

    Creationists believe in a Flood.

     

    The flood is what makes the greatest difference here. When scientists don't take God into consideration, they are not taking the flood into consideration. And that would change everything.

     

    On one side you have a group of scientists that do their research believing that earth has been around for Billions of years. And has slowly been changing.

     

    On the other side you have a group of scientists that do their research believing that earth hasn't been around that long, and that there was a flood which caused a great disturbance in the world. And different creationists scientists have their own version of just how the flood happened. But they believe there was a flood. Just like different Evolution scientists have their own version of how it all began.

     

    So we go back to the main subject. Why is one considered to be Science and the other one isn't?

     

    Now, lets go a little into the christians can go to private school and learn creation.

     

    Well, Not all Christians can afford private school. And even if I sent my kids to private school, the goverment would still charge me for Public schools.

     

    Why should a Christian father be paying money so that the goverment can deteriorate his kids belief in God?

     

    But the same could be said about an Atheist. Why should they pay so that the Goverment can make their kids learn about something that has to do with God?

     

    So it all comes down to Choice. Should the goverment be giving us only part of the theory? Should they only be showing us one side of the argument? or should they be letting us know of all sides and then allow us to choose whatever we want?

     

    Or maybe such controversial things should just be left for the parents and these "Theories" should just plain not be taught and only teach that which has been proven without any doubt?

     

    But then the parents wouldn't really do a very good job at giving us all sides of the story either. They would just show us what they want.

  9. But see, that's the thing.

     

    Is Creationism not science just because there is a belief in God?

     

    I'm a Christian and I'm a creationist, but I also love science and I believe there is a lot of great science around.

     

    Creationists just look at science in one way and Evolutionists see it in another way.

     

    Lets take carbon dating for example.

     

    Every living organism has a certain ammount of Carbon 14. When it dies it starts loosing it. It looses half every 5,730 years. That is considered half life. So in 2 half lifes (11,460 years) only 1/4 of the original C14 would be left.

     

    Anything over 50,000 years would actually have no detectable C14. However, for ever we've been told that C14 is used to meassure how many million years old something is. When the truth is that if they can even detect C14, that only means something is less than 50,000 years old.

     

    So we do use science. We just see things differently.

     

    And the big difference is that we believe that there was a God and a Flood.

     

    Evolutionists and sadly a lot of scientists want to just take God out of the equation.

     

    So, why is it that Evolutionist Science is considered Science but Creationist Science isn't?

     

    Again, not making a Creation vs Evolution thing here. Just asking about 2 different ways of looking at science, why is one valid and the other one isnt?

  10. OK, I have been asking people in other forums about this trying to get their opinions. So now it's your turn! weee! :rolleyes:

     

    OK, here is the deal.

     

    In this Pennsilvania, USA district, Public School teachers are required to read this to students before teaching them about evolution and Darwins theories

     

    The Pennsylvania Academic Standards require students to learn about Darwin’s theory of evolution and eventually to take a standardized test of which evolution is a part.

     

    Because Darwin’s theory is a theory, it continues to be tested as new evidence is discovered. The theory is not a fact. Gaps in the theory exist for which there is no evidence. A theory is defined as a well-tested explanation that unifies a broad range of observations.

     

    Intelligent design is an explanation of the origin of life that differs from Darwin’s view. The reference book, “Of Pandas and People,” is available for students who might be interested in gaining an understanding of what intelligent design actually involves.

     

    With respect to any theory, students are encouraged to keep an open mind. The school leaves the discussion of the origins of life to individual students and their families. As a standards-driven district, class instruction focuses upon preparing students to achieve proficiency on standards-based assessments.

     

    Ok, now. I don't want to have a Creation VS Evolution debate here. Those never end up very good.

     

    What I want to discuss here is, should teachers be allowed to tell students that there is an alternative?

     

    Should teachers even be teaching evolution when it is all just theory just like creation would be?

     

    Should teachers maybe teach both sides of the story?

     

    Does the fact that someone believe something was made by God automatically converts that persons beliefs into myth and not science?

     

    Just all those things. Please lets try to respect each others opinions and not trash each other.

  11. Jeez, I give up. Take what you want from my posts and don't take what you don't want. I don't care. But don't be trying to make me sound racist or close minded. EXCUSE me if I say America, it's a term that we use here. English people are always saying "Mate" I don't go around complaining that I don't want to procreate with them.

     

    Now, there are a couple of things you can all complain about. Tell me how English people are not the only ones that say "mate". And complain about how I keep saying "here" when I refer to the U.S. of A.

     

    Hey now you can complain about how I can't expect everyone to know what the abbreviations U.S. of A. are and that I should spell out the full thing.

     

    *sigh*

     

    Anyway, to try and stick to the subject I will let you all know that I really don't know if I should get a micro or just one of the new SPs.

  12. Nicer graphics doesn't make better. I think we've all seen that with DOA. They keep making it look better and better, but deep down it's still the same old crap.

     

    Another thing to take notice in is the DS WI-FI that will come in November. That alone should boost the DS gameplay. Playing Mario Kart online for free? Hells yea.

  13. Thank You!

     

    That's all I'm trying to say. It's just a fact. More of certain people play certain types of games. Not saying they ALL do.

     

    And I'm not saying it's a bad thing either. I love the fact that we have so many different cultures.

     

    Only in America can I go out and eat Pho, followed by an Horchata, then after that go get myself a Cafe Cubano, then later go eat Pizza and end the night with some Krispy Kreme Doughnuts.

  14. Japan is just a lot more stable than us. Mostly because it's just one Culture, so mostly just one way of thinking.

     

    Here, we have a bunch of cultures so things are very different.

     

    You usually have the white kids who tend to really be into First Person Shooters. Then there are the black kids who are into totally different games. Things like Need for Speed underground and Grand theft Auto. Then there are the Latinos who are really into things like Soccer. And then Asians who are really into their RPGs.

     

    Obviously I'm not syaing these people only play these kind of games, I'm saying that's how the market sorta splits.

     

    Japan is mostly Japanese, and they seem to love their thinking games.

  15. Game Boy Micro was the third best seller last week in Japan. Selling almost as much as the PSP. Which did rather well last week because people are still buying that white one and that Winning Eleven soccer game.

     

    The DS remained number one in Japan though.

     

    Here are the actual numbers:

     

    1. NDS - 68,123

    2. PSP - 50,629

    3. GBM - 46,529

    4. PS2 - 25,518

    5. GBASP 12,483

    6. NGC - 2,267

    7. GBA - 448

    8. XBX - 98

     

    As you can see, Nintendo is doing VERY good in Japan hehe. 5 out of the 8 systems are Nintendos.

     

    Yea, Xbox sold a wooping 98. Poor Xbox.

  16. See, that's the thing I don't like about the PSP, you have to buy a protector case. So when you want to play you have to take it out of the protector case, find a place to put that in. Turn it on and then play. Which isn't really much trouble. Exept when you are ridding a bus full of people and there isn't much room to be moving around so much.

     

    The DS, you take it out, flip it open, play. When done, close it, put it back in the pocket. Yes, the pocket with the keys or change. Cuz who cares if the DS gets scratched. It's not that pretty.

     

    PSP, I have a hard time just trying to clean it. I don't like playing with the damm thing just cuz I don't want to get my finterprints all over it. Hell I don't like taking it out of the case just cuz right away you start seeing all the little dust particles.

     

    It's just too beautiful.

     

    Gamewise, like I mentioned earlier, DS has all the games that are interesting me. But I am a Nintendo fanboy. I grew up with Nintendo, can't blame me.
