How did FFVII "push" Taoism and Buddhism? There's a difference between "pushing" a religion and having a religion play a large part of a game. I've just started playing Assassin's Creed where religion plays a huge part in the game...settings, themes, etc. Now on the other end of the...

Uh, ok :) I actually heard an interesting analogy many years ago..someone said that if the aviation industry had evolved as quickly as the computer industry, we would have been on the moon nine years after Kittyhawk. By the way...happy 50th anniversary to NASA!

Hey, you've got to start somewhere. Orville and Wilbur didn't build a 747 did they?

I believe they said the same thing about an International Space Station.

Some things never change :P Why is water on the moon important? Many reasons actually, but I'll give you two good, solid, concrete reasons. First, if water is found to be on the moon in any decent quantity, it can be harvested and used as fuel for lunar missions. Not just to and from...

Tolkien, you are seeing what you want to see, even though it isn't there. I haven't changed my mind because there isn't any reason to do so. Since you bring this up again at the end of your post, I'll explain it there. Whatever helps you sleep at night. Since there was at least one...

Hey, just be glad Comfort kept the banana at home.

Oh Tolkien. Although I could continue to argue with you, the facts are already laid out before not only you, but to everyone. You've made it clear that you will believe what you want, regardless of what anyone says. No sir. You have NOT attacked my position, you have attached me...

Forest. Trees.

How, exactly, am I ignorant of scripture? It is what it is. Problems arise when you start trying to read between the lines and infer things that aren't there. I'm a proponent of letting the text speak for itself. I think you may be jumping the gun and attacking me unnecessarily. When I...

Truly spoken as a member of the oppressive majority :)

Uh...it's from a song, chill out :P Carly Simon anyone? "You're so vain...you probably think this song is about you...lalala." I'll try to keep my references to this decade :) Why are Christians so touchy and so eager to pull out the persecution card? Touche' mon ami.

For my edification, what could the atheists have done better? Personally, I think they could have been a bit more even tempered, but the RRS has a tendency to be overly in-your-face. Sapient has a bad rep. for being a poor debater because of this. They did a lot of "rolling of the eyes"...

Not according to these two. They claim that faith isn't needed AT ALL.

Lazarus, please note my use of the English language: "Included are some examples that were not only condoned, but ORDERED by God." Some, not ALL. All quotes weren't meant to show God condoning a particular act, nor were they all meant to show examples of immorality. They were, however, all...

Oops, sorry, I let this thread slip by me :) Ask and you shall receive! This is for Lazarus too, who said he couldn't think of any immorality that wasn't condemned. Included are some examples that were not only condoned, but ORDERED by God. For the sake of tactfulness, I won't go into...

Which part? BTW, I missed the live stream...did anyone catch it? It will be on Nightline later tonight. 10:30 pm CT. Here's a link to ABC's page on the debate: http://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/story?id=3148940&page=1 You can also do a search and find some clips. The few clips that they...

http://www.voanews.com/english/2007-05-09-voa47.cfm WHOA! Now that's an undertaking!

The link above states, "Comfort -- who claims he can prove the existence of God, scientifically, without mentioning faith or the Bible -- stated, "The network originally offered me only four minutes to present my case. After speaking with Kirk and conferring with the atheists, they settled on 13...

That's putting it mildly.
