Too Hard.

Though I hate to say it, UTSU has actually provided the most non-annoying entertainment in this folder in a while. I still think he's a hoser, though

Life of Brian And I hate "Torque," "The Fast and the Furious" and all those other shitty movies, though I've never seen them. I also know people that hate the Matrix without watching it. I actually thought that 9/11 lacked the focus of B4C.

I watched 5 minutes, and I couldn't watch anymore. The only time I'd watch from now on would be if Walken hosted. Does anyone else see the intelligence and maturity in the humor dropping to junior high levels?

Well, "technically" that doesn't count, since that wasn't the end of the PPV. The Goldberg/Hennig match was before the main event, if I'm not mistaken. I just watched it about a week ago, I could have sworn it was the end. Maybe that's just where I stopped watching. Nope . . . . Hogan/Rodman vs. DDP/Malone was the main event for that show. But you're right about the Goldberg/Hennig match sucking fairly badly - Hennig deserved a bit better than a four-minute squash in a World title match. Then again, SO MANY wrestlers deserved a bit better than the shit sandwiches they were dished out while working for WCW. I just remembered when someone mentioned Hogan. I don't think that changes my choice, though.

The only belts that look anywhere near good are the tag belts, the Big Gold, and the IC(Depending on the wearer of the belt). The worst is by far the US belt, as it's gaudy. The cruiserweight belt is pretty bad, IMO

I'm saying Bast at the Beach '98. Goldberg vs. Curt Henning. If there was anyone who could carry Goldberg at the time, it was Henning. And it was 4 minutes long. Henning gets a title shot, and it's a fucking squash.

You're just sad he didn't come to your last "mixer"

I actually had a discussion Friday night about works and faith, and I'll give you the basic idea behind it: Having been raised Christian, I've been told things my entire life without detailed explanation. (You need to be saved and sanctified...., Carry your cross..., and accordingly: You aren't saved by works but by faith.) It wasn't until I discussed Martin Luther's "Bondage of the Will" in my Renaissance and Reformation class that I realized that Catholics aren't the only ones who work for their salvation. Having been raised in an Evangelical Protestant household, the looming threat of Hell is what kept me faithful until I was about sixteen. I've spent a good majority of my life praying for forgiveness every time I committed a sin because I was afraid of dying suddenly or missing the "rapture" (An idea I will in no way, shape, or form debate. I don't want debate starting because of this post because it is not necessary to Christianity.). Even after my salvation grew beyond this, I still spent a lot of my time carrying around the guilt of my transgressions. In my class, my professor made it a point to emphasize Luthor's point that you cannot take salvation, you can only receive it. To do anything that would work towards your salvation takes the work away from Christ and makes His sacrifice less worthy. My uncle in law brought a verse from Romans into the conversation which mentions something along the lines of carrying a dead body, which was a practice used by the Romans when someone committed murder(the murderer would carry the dead body on his back, and it would eventually kill him). The idea is that when you receive salvation, Christ removes the dead body from your back. But if you don't "receive" salvation, you still carry the body around. The point of this is that sacraments aren't the only works done by Christians. Dwelling on your sins and carrying them around with you is a work. Anything you do to try to "prove your worth" is a work. SIDE NOTE: I'm actually going to a PCA church around the corner. PCA was recommended to me by one of my professors. Thanks, though SP. I agree that works are crucial to salvation, but only after you receive salvation.(Which you'd understand some if you read the rest of this post.) I also agree, as well, that there has been some "arrogantly determining of someone's fate," as it's one of the few problems I've had with this thread. I'd have to disagree with the pouring over the minutia of the Bible, as you can't discuss Christianity without the discussing the sources involved. I'd say more, but Mr. McHaggis, I've only just met you.

ahh....thanks. You finally do me some good.

I totally forgot where that came from. Now it all makes sense...

Do you mean my friend? If so, I'm horribly insulted.

Can you dumb that down just a little bit?

I think that the Catholics aren't the only ones who place some things too high. As I said before, I was raised Pentecostal. Now that Im married, my wife and I are looking for a "home" church. We told our parents that we were looking at a Presbyterian church. Her Mom(also pentecostal) laughed at us, and mine told me I shouldn't go there because they don't speak in tongues. I agree with this as well. I have large problems with "Christian" media because of this.

So, you would be suggesting merging Food, Learning, AND HD?

I'm waiting for Mike to ask you to site the sig size rule, and then continously claim that his sig is not to long even though he has evidence otherwise. EDIT: It's horribly Ironic that I'm talking about sig size.

Ok, but what does that mean? It means, IDRM, that by this definition Catholics are also Christians. To say that all Catholics are not Christians is like saying that only Evangelical Protestants are going to heaven. There are many Catholics who are incredible Christians that love God, and don't "worship" Mary. I know several. Just because they have some "unique" beliefs doesn't mean that they are not part of the body of Christ. Hell, I grew up Pentecostal. Some people think we're possesed by demons. It doesn't mean every Pentecostal is going to Hell. And yes, I do understand that there are some "out there" Catholic beliefs, but I would think that the Catholic Church is in a much better state than it was 500 years ago.

Thanks, I'll try that.

HAHAHAHA! That's funny. Damn you, Dutch Mantel. Damn you too, Jeff Jarrett. Wow, he IS new to Christianity. I say in a few months he renounces his Christianity because of hypocrisy. What a noob.

We'll see Johnny B. Badd with the belt before Raven. And haven't we heard enough of Jarrett calling TNA his world? I know it's true, but geez, it's like McMahon walking out every week saying "Since I own WWE, which means that I make all the decisions, I'm gonna do this...." It's pointless.

Okay, now I understand that Jarrett is a horrible booker and all, but this is going way to far... Ok, I'm lying. Legend's probably right.

I thought the first Ezek story or two was ok. I like the Ezekiel storyline. I know not everyone does, but I'm a fan of giving Spidey's spider bite something of a reason other than random desire of a radioactive spider to bite a human. I'm also a fan of any Dr. Strange cameo's as well.

I bet Monty Brown could kick Goldberg's ass. POUNCE>SPEAR!!!!

That's because he doesn't have the POOOOUUUUNNNCCCEEEE!
