Apparently several people are selling their souls on eBay. Heck, I just saw a t-shirt being sold there saying "I sold my soul on eBay, and all I got was this lousy t-shirt." I may have to bid on a few. I need a couple souls for my nefarious purposes, and it's so much easier to just buy one...

The Myst games have always had the best graphics of their time. I haven't played the latest one, but a friend of mine has. She says that the opening scene is so realistic, she thought it was a video of a real scene at first. Although for games that are rendered in real-time, I think HL2 and...

The pulse rifle from Half-Life 2. A powerful primary fire, with a phenomenal secondary fire. Half-Life 2 players know what I mean. I own with that thing in deathmatch. You can take out a small team with the secondary shot, if you aim right. Heck, once I took out an entire team from around the...

Most people don't have any problems. As long as you have a decent internet connection, you should be fine. I had some hassles with it, myself, but they had to do with other programs trying to pop messages up to my screen while I was playing. I turned them off and didn't have any more problems.

I have already beaten it. And I'm playing it again. This is one of the (if not THE) best I've played.

That doesn't follow. There's nothing in the existence of an angel that necessitates the existence of God.

Go take a philosophy class. It'll do you good. Unless you can back up your claims, you have nothing more than a bunch of opinions. If you don't want any more than that, it's your business. Loundry, on the other hand, is an Objectivist. A large part of Objectivism is that you should not hold a...

I don't think that "settles" anything, but that's definitely what we have to do to get along. We have to accept that others will do things that we consider to be wrong, and it's useless to get angry or intolerant about it. Of course, it also means we have to figure out something other than...

Who said that the ultimate standard of what is right or wrong is happiness? I didn't. And in any case, the fact that we cannot agree on what is right or wrong does not mean that there is no ultimate right or wrong. I'm sure you'd agree with me there. I don't believe your own stance solves the...

Throwing your garbage on the road and cutting down forests of trees aren't good examples; they do harm other people, the first directly and the second indirectly. A fifty-year-old man and a fifteen-year-old boy is... definitely an iffy example. Whether a fifteen-year-old boy has the judgement...

I wouldn't dismiss mysticism so quickly. The reliance on otherworldly internal experiences for knowledge of things beyond ordinary experience isn't necessarily problematic. Again, I'd point out Metacrock over in General Apologetics to you. I highly recommend you head over to General...

Not having a belief in God does not commit you to not having a belief in absolutes. Both Hindus and Objectivists agree that there are things that are absolutely true, though they disagree as to what they are.

I usually don't like it when people use dictionary definitions in arguments, but I think what you've done here is fine. I guess the next thing is for you to show that belief in gods, fairies, thetans, etc., really is superstitious. I don't think your case is too hard to make in the case of...

I'm not a Christian, but I think I'm fully qualified to question your worldview, having done it to myself many times.:P I take issue with number 1. You need to explain what qualifies a belief as a superstition and why you use such a loaded term. Number 2 needs something to back it up...

You laugh now, but when someone tries to take over the world by exploiting IE's security flaws, you'll thank us. And LOL @ brightlights
