Well, first of all, I recommend you post it to the Louvre database, which stores pretty much all BoA graphics. The submission form is here.

Edit: I just realized that that won't work if you're on IE, since it will start up Outlook which you said doesn't work. Ouch.
Then again, you could mail it to arancaytar.ilyaran at gmail.com, and I can pass them on to Brett. :)

—Alorael, who doesn't see the question of where God comes from as any more sticky than the question of where the universe comes from. Neither one has a good answer, except science can try to explain the latter (not yet!) and religion can explain the former (not coherently!).

In fact, religion can explain the latter (the world was created by God), but not the former. Ask persons of any theist religion where God came from.
Also, science can semi-adequately explain the former (God was invented by Man as a moral authority and an explanation for natural laws), but not yet the former.

Ironic, eh?

I still like the idea that (if there is a Creation involved), then the Creator was in turn Created by another Creator... and so on. I enjoy recursion. ;)

Besides, it takes away from that 'unilateralism'. If who/whatever is 'God' in turn has another God to pray to...

In theory, there is nothing preventing us from colonizing the solar system. The matter is merely one of cost - and that can be overcome when the necessity does arise.

It's certainly a start. In these times, especially religions need leaders that are ready to reach out to the rest of the world.

So do countries, of course, but religions generally hold more sway.

Yes she is. However, if you believe this has caused discussion to cease, you are sadly mistaken. People won't and won't shut up about the poor woman and what they think should have been done.

And I agree with AM. I'm protestant and agnostic, but this man did a lot of good. His conservative stance on abortion and prevention etc. aside, he has done a lot for understanding and peace between world religions.

I don't belong to any religious denomination. I'm christian, I identify myself with some protestant religions (like seventh day adventists and baptists), but I don't belong to any denomination/church. It just happens that some are more in harmony with my own beliefs, that are a result of self-learning: reading and studying the Bible and everything else comparing to the Bible.

I just asked because you and ben, who are obviously both conservative Christians, seem to have different ideas on a few issues, ie baptism.

One day, Richard realized that GC could not be played on Windows. He was sad. His torture devices would never gain fame among PC users. Then he sat down, and wrote Homeland.

Suffice to say that practice, apparently, honed his skills.

Edit: That is if he wrote Homeland later. Did he even write Homeland? It strikes me as odd that someone would release two different games for two different platforms without porting either of them...
