Use Your Illusion

That's not because you stink. It's because they hate you.

Andrew/Anya, is Ermac readily playable straight up? He's really the one guy I'm interested in fighting as when MKD makes it down under. UYI

.... .... I'm just trying to take this all in at the moment.

Snake is the one who is doing double duty with those tasks you outlined, Deon. Raiden is apparently off fixing his fucking bizarre and twisted life that is revealed at the conclusion of MGS2.

You're mistaken. My favourite is WMXX. Not much in the past three years has been any better. UYI

What.

The European release of Metal Gear Solid 2:Sons of Liberty had only a short comic strip for a manual, which very briefly ran over the basics. A more comprehensive manual was located on the bonus disc, that also featured a documentary and the many trailers released prior to hype the game. UYI

IGN.com have put up their comprehensive review on the finished product, calling it the best Mortal Kombat game of all time. Here's the link

Oh, that razor sharp wit of yours never gets old. Never. In fact, re-post that message again. UYI

They had the Undertaker profile up just recently too, really awesome. I'm also hangin' out for JBL. Doesn't seem as much hype this year for the SD! title...

IDRM, SP-1, JAxl & the VG freaks, Anya & Andrew. UYI

Comprehending God, what a concept.

Read my mind. You're an Aussie too. See also HBK vs Diesel from IYH '96. Shawn made Nash look like twenty million dollars. UYI

No pun intended, I'm sure.

Please, for the sake of your retinas, don't do it.

We need more Stewie one-liners

Your tapes suck.

Scripture to support this? Reason for this interpretation? Tell me where you're getting it from and I can probably tell you why Paul was using that language. Paul tended to be showy in his dictation and in his writing. His head tended to move faster than his mouth, giving alot of grandiose terminology to marry spiritual concepts to practical application and example. You've got to take into account his writing style, apparent thought process, the audience he was writing to, and the matter at hand. Give me some examples and we can unpack it. 1. Evidence? This is theory. And a shady one derived from bias (not by you, but its obviously an attempt to discredit all the gospels). 2. Acts was written by Luke and was the second part of a larger historical narrative. One that was evidently researched by Luke himself, a physician. They were written close together to the same man (Theophilus). The text itself makes this clear. Sorry, I meant to include the source. I've been studying alternate perceptions of Christianity as part of my religious course and came across this site. Cycle through all the 'pieces to the puzzle' and you will see exactly where I found all of my information. However, some of it came straight from the mouth of my own tutor, I've yet to really look heavily into it and was looking to see if you could offer a rebuttal. Going from what I looked at this week though, 1 Cor: 3-4 seems to outline Paul's main source of information as the Scriptures.

Something else I'd like to point out: *All* Gospels derive their story of this character known as Jesus of Nazareth from one, single source - what ever group of individuals wrote the Gospel According To Mark. Matthew and Luke are but reworkings of Mark's Gospel, with additional material added. The only other source I can think of is Acts of the Apostles. However, that was created around the second century, thus having no historical credibility as it would of had to base everything directly from the already written Gospels.

Spidey: Could you explain to me then why Paul and other early writers speak of the divine Son of their faith entirely in a spiritual sense, without referring to him as 'Jesus Christ' (or 'Annointed Saviour'), a man who historically lived and rose from the dead? Paul himself makes it quite clear that his own knowledge of 'Christ' is derived entirely from scripture under 'God's inspiration', not from any eyewitness or other individual who knew a man, named Jesus Christ, that was the Son of God. Paul also refers to the 'resurrection' as taking place somewhere other than Earth or history. If I recall correctly, Paul indicates that the resurrection took place in a spiritual realm above the Earth at the hands of 'evil spirits', which is open to interpretation. UYI

'Call of Ktulu' - Metallica 'Eruption' - Eddie Van Halen Can't go wrong there. UYI

The world is indeed vast.

DH is the only one I saw hit the melodrama button really, really hard. UYI

Not a problem, SP. I'd just like to further my point - you make a legitimate claim that the Bible's consistency indicates truth and that if there was contridiction present in the information present within the Gospels, it would clearly signal falsity. However, consistency does *not* indicate truth at all. I found a great written piece on it recently: UYI
