((...I count as a veteran, right? Right?))

[Tiruin]

((Yay! We may have more veterans back in time for the defense!))

. . .
((..Is it that bad?! o_o
Radio Controlled, why didn't you advertise it harder?! Dx Ok, reading the other threads x__x bluh.))

[GreatWyrmGold]

((Poking at it in the nicest way: Yes, it is pride in the way of your posting.

((I never said otherwise.))

The example at hand speaks of taking things literally-and the matter at hand being what is in the Bible. Most things, are not to be taken literally--they were written at a timeframe where the people would understand the metaphors, yet by time passing the line between us understanding the written text; given how it is transcribed and translated as-is, is blurred by how the ancients understood it. A line that is hard to understand without prior research.

((So, you're saying that the stuff the Bible says isn't literally what it means? Better than most Christians, but it does bring up a point.
Isn't this book the basis of Christian religion? Hence, wouldn't the basis of such a religion in modern times be based on interpretation? And wouldn't whatever principles you followed from it be one that you assume is correctly the word of God?
Who's prideful now?))

Do not impute what you-or as a general matter, the populace of today sees in a book, and takes for granted-or in the least at hand, as determined fact-towards the time it was written and the people who wrote it.

((I'm not. I'm just saying that, as written, God is a jerk and anyone who claims otherwise has no right to use Biblical quotes to defend any point. Less so than normal, I mean.))

For posterity: I have, and have never intended, to target anyone in particular--just the aspect of the person that is showing instead of the person. I also have not said anyone is an idiot-though the term may have gone into misunderstanding to how its usage stems. Do not take it personally, and I advise to take a moment and calm down before continuing this. Apologies if certain areas were hurt, but none of that was ever in my motive or intent.))

Unless you'd want me to counter-point your...oh, ignorance on the matter. Given your brevity and lack of intellectual discussion.

((I see. Not insulting at all.))

((Rerailing, Radio Controlled contacted me and two others about joining the game back--I've been browsing through the..literally hundreds of pages to catch up. x__x That's a lot of chat, dudes. Anywhoo, still watching with interest! ))

((Glad to have you back.))

((Yay! We may have more veterans back in time for the defense!))

((..Is it that bad?! o_o

((We don't know, but Grate briefly turned into a living amp overload, Auron (Anton?) is making a giant robot from spaceship bits against the orders of Simus and Anton (Auron?), and we're going to be fighting off the UWM in about a year.))

[Xantalos]

((Yeah, we need shepards for our herd.))

[Tiruin]

((PMs, GWG!
You don't have to poke back at it publicly D: Unless..you need to somehow?))

((Yeah, we need shepards for our herd.))

((I just need to wonder where exactly to post. Got lost a while back.
Edit: Noneed, I'll handle it! x__x))

[GreatWyrmGold]

((Another of those little quirks I'm always a tiny bit surprised when people forget about, given how often I'm called out for pulling arguments from PMs into the thread.
...Not that often, actually, but still.))

[smurfingtonthethird]

((How do I officially join the defense force? Messaging RC got me nowhere.))

[swordsmith04]

((You just say which team you want to be on and whether you want to be part of the boarding squad if you survive, in the combat thread. It doesn't need to be IC.))

[Unholy_Pariah]

((Another of those little quirks I'm always a tiny bit surprised when people forget about, given how often I'm called out for pulling arguments from PMs into the thread.
...Not that often, actually, but still.))

((Id have called you out in the survey thread but frankly you arent worth it, id rather let the original argument die then call you out publicly for pulling it back and piss everyone off by starting another.))

((...Not sure if serious.))

[syvarris]

((Yay, Tiruin's back!  Will Serious be coming back too?  FeyrixJim is a pretty good plot. 

Saint, my character, is really RP-heavy.  Plus Feyri's the polar opposite of Saint--a manipulative sociopathic fleshtech--so that's practically guaranteed to be fun.))

((I also have a tendency to poke beehives with poor wording, that not an insult to GWG as i feel noone is worth it.))

((Oh, his meeting with Xan's going to be interesting.))

((I'd say you're thinking of Faith-IronyOwl's char, but that doesn't describe her...in my viwpoint. Though if it really is Feyru you're talking about then I am really intrigued to why you say so. :3
...
Where is that combat thread? >_>))
