V Guyver

I keep looking at the older texts because the more recent concepts by Christians and Islam's have altered the current perception of God. I think the current perception is the least likely version of the real God (if there is one) and thus I tend to follow the Hebrew's version of him (while still following the concepts of Jesus who I admire, or at least the concept of his message).

Also, the new text's in the holy bible don't deal as much with God, instead they focus on other people like Christ, John, Joseph, and others. Followed by the fate of humanity and the end of the world.

Besides, what better way to get an idea of getting an idea of God's true nature then through his past actions? So I think there is some merit in focusing it,. If you want me to drop the matter then I will if you would like to focus on some other concept here. In the meanwhile...

As for the free will, it's not what I'm targeting, and God as an almighty being with infinite knowledge should be more then capable of dealing with none believers then the methods he displayed. If he had more men like Jesus appear to bring out the good in people, he may of been able to reform humanity without bringing such waste to the world. God didn't just wipe out humanity in the flood, but plants and animals, and much of other life not brought into the Arc. He warned humanity to follow him or be destroyed through the words of his prophets, but these men didn't listen. Noah did, but then he told Noah to build ships, and not the rest of the humanity because he planned on killing all but Noah and those close to him.

What bothers me about the above is that God is preached as all forgiving these days, but didn't have the patience for these wicked. I thought it was stated that all men, and even Satan can be forgiven and reach salvation. So why why didn't he make the effort? Now don't tell me he warned humans or gave them proper preparation. He didn't, sending a single man into town and telling everyone they are going to die isn't really effective or practical. It didn't work ever in thousands of years of the history of his followers, and yet he insisted in doing it. Sending a single guy out to make such claims would be looked at as a madman. Maybe if he sent in a talking angel, or even a lobotomized monkey things would of been more effective because of the miracle factor. He pulled the same stunt with the Assyrians, the Babylonians, the Romans. All of them warned, and each time people meant not to worship him would suffer his wrath according to texts for not worshiping him. God is stated as a jealous god, and it's so apparent that all he wants is effection, but if ignored he makes you suffer.

that's pretty damn good guts by fan standards.

I decided to pick at Judea-christian views because that is what most of us can relate to, if you want I can tear into Islam, Hindu, and Buddhist thinking as well, but I'd rather not.

Also there are different ways of influencing people without disrupting free will. If God ordains a purpose for us, then why doesn't he give us paths that would knowingly allow less evil to exist in the world. He's supposed to know everything in the universe, but can't bloody figure out how to better help humanity without flooding the earth...? not working for me, nope. Some people say we need evil in the world for God to be good, or allow free will. I'm not sure if that's true, about the free will part, but having evil just so God can look better in our eyes disturbs me.

Oh, and when I talk about God smiting us humans left and right, doesn't that also effect our souls according to some beliefs. If we are sinners, then God sent them to hell after killing them, and thus cost them salvation. Also, does he have the right to allow our souls to suffer for eternity when he can save our souls now? A God like that sounds more like one who made man out of boredom to entertain him as Time passes instead of any love. It's like a human playing civilization.

As for angels, they were based off the spirits and gods of other cultures, in essence angels were more like Chimera's then anything. I hate the chibi looking Cherubs because originally they were depicted in a much more cooler light, they are gods mightiest angels, the elite near god angels, and they were turned into wing babies... so uncool.

Also there are some things i noticed that atheists hate about religious groups like. "Don't try to think, God is beyond your knowledge, just go with what we tell you. Oh don't question it, it's heresy and you'll be sent to hell. If God didn't want us to question him, then we really wouldn't have both free will nor the capability to learn and change. Just look at poor moses. Moses was punished for disobeying God's instructions. God had instructed him to "speak" to the rock, but instead he hit it, twice to get water. God punished him, and Aaron (For not stopping moses from hitting the rock a second time.) and not only disobeying a command, but for practically ruining a good opportunity to awe his worshipers. Pretty harsh, especially Aaran who really didn't commit a wrong in the first place. The punishment was for niether to ever step foot on the holy land... Wait, wasn't god supposed to be capable of unqual forgiveness? It seemed like an honest msitake to me.

Oh, the terrorize thing is because, well people who didn't believe in God in the first testament ended up having their cities burned down by him, meteors crash about on their homes, women turned to stone for looking back on the chaos, disobeying his commands means punishment... so god tells me to go tell a bunch of people that he's gonna kill them unless they worship him, I refuse... so he gets me stuck inside a whales stomach when I ran away from the decree.

Then there are the commands by God to the israelites to kill every man, woman, and child, take there land, but not their belongings... It was an early genocide in gods name! This type of thing was typical in the old world, but the israelites were by far the most brutal when it came to it. At least most other cultures took captives, to wipe out dozens of cities, towns, and villages over a 100 years of war is pretty horrific.

Now I'm not trying to say Jews did this, no this came before even the Jews came to be, but it did take place just after moses and Egypt, and the 40 years of wondering. So please don't get the wrong idea folks and call me some Nazi sympathizer. I'm actually describing things I read in the bible, and historical readings like "Great People of he Bible and how they lived"

A shame really, I was hoping to see more of your views, though I do also suggest anger management...

Yeah free will means having the ability to do both right and wrong and make your own choices in that matter. An Angel doesn't have that ability, they just follow orders and can't disobey (which conflicts with the whole idea of Satan actually gaining a will of his own.) What god has failed to do was guide humanity away from it. Also, I find god to be pretty horrible in how he deals with humanity as a whole, instead of attempting to save sinners he either has them killed or sent to hell. If there are too many sinners, rather then go through the effort of reforming them, he decides to cause a flood, kill them and almost all other land animals on earth, and then lets us repopulate the world as a fresh start... also, he seems to terrorize people into submission instead of using kindness and ideals to win them over... that doesn't really sound so benevolent, just compare God's actions to the messages about him, if anything he's like an omnipotent politician with public image, but is actually pretty petty at heart.

Also, I find it interesting that we have a concept of good and evil, it didn't exist in most cultures and religions up until Christianity introduced Satan.

hey, how about that walking turd tank that Sigint dreamt about in MGS3? That should prove an interesting battle. Giant Radioactive Lizard VS a robotic tank that can turn things into poop. What it comes down to it, the battle will be determined by who's got a more foul smell, Godzilla's bad breath, or the stink of giant poop.

that's fake, but still funny. XD

Takakazu Abe, based of a gay hentai manga from japan. Later converted to the Mugen 2D PC game engine. needless to say, when you have a gay dude with humping attacks, he can be both scary and funny.

First gainst Ryu

and for added humor... homer

then him and Micheal Jackson teaming up against Sasuke and Haruhi the ending is what wins out thanks to MJ's special dancing finisher (he makes the opponent dance to death)

Salkafar, your post reminds me and how I started to view god at one point, it's all the implausible contradictions and hypocrisy that pushed me away from catholicism and single faiths in general. I was pretty angry at both the people around me with their forcing of beliefs on me. I try to operate by some degree of logic, and God and Christianity and many others or illogical. Going to a church and getting hurt and attacked by some of the kids who take part of the ceremonies insulted me and their duty. I think the defining moment was when I was getting punched and abused by the older boy scouts outside of the church and no one stopped them, not my parents, not the priest, none of the adults or the other people, and instead they just forced me to march down the street later holding a candle minutes after all this and chewed me out. That got me questioning all the inconsistencies I read and experienced from the bible. And to think, I actualy considered becoming a priest as a kid before that! Not anymore folks!

These contradictory flaws though that you pointed out are from the Christian god. The traditional Hebrew version of God wasn't not an all benevolent god, no, he actually enjoyed punishing the wicked and reigning destruction down on his enemies servants (other gods). It's not often quoted or even pointed out because... well it makes God seem pretty much more human then all mighty, and not much better then other gods.

Then came Christianity as it spread through Rome, and the religion changed in part to the peoples and religions of other cultures it replaced. God for example took in qualities of the god Endovelicus who had a widespread pagan religion through out Rome and persisted until the 1300's. Meanwhile Satan was created to both take away blame from god's flaws and shortcomings in the Hebrew books, while also using the figure to villainize other opposing pagan gods. Thus you can blame Christianity, and even Muhammadans (they distorted many things even further) for the conflicting traits that God is described with.

This is one of the few topics that you can use a simpson episode "She of Little Faith."

Homer and Bart build a model rocket together but lose control of it as it burns down the church. Without any money for repairs, the church decides to sell out to corporate sponsors: mainly Mr. Burns. Lisa is appalled by the shameless display of billboards and corporate monikers emblazoned on the church walls and finally decides to simply quit the church for good. She decides to test out new religions and finally happens upon a Buddhist temple.

Lisa becomes enamored with the easy-going approach to enlightenment and decides to take Buddhism as her new religion. Her family, worried about her soul, try to bring her back to Christianity by subtly dropping Christian innuendo. Lisa realizes that Buddhism allows for the celebration of all holidays and finally comes back to her family to celebrate and simply pay "lip-service" to the church with the help of Richard Gere.

gotta love the mob.

well the fact I remember this stuff after almost a decade of not playing it shows how big an influence the game has on me. There really hasn't been anything as ground breaking since in 2D gaming aside from Viewtiful Joy. Super Metroid, Demon's Crest, Megaman 8, and the Castlevania handheld sequals are about the only things that stick out in my mind though I know there are others liek the recent contra games, I have yet to play those.

it's a dude, a metrosexual one I guess.

it would be one of the few monsters that could fight him in the open sea, and on land. All he has to do is fight liek this pinguin dude on land.

yes, with decent equipment and knowing the pattern you can own dracula with alucard at lvl1. Oh and I don't recall being able to cast spells as the axe night, though I think you can still use a familiar.

good luck, he can't duck any of the attacks and takes a ton of damage.

First ever McD's ad with the original version of Ronald McDonald clown.

And their later attempts to be cooler.

lol, didn't think to compare the fist of Tulkas to HnK. I used to think the Axe Armor was the most useless thing around until i learned about how the Mummy was susceptible to critical from it. Spent hours trying to get the armor, and finally got it, and what a let down.

did you ever use the sheilds to summon an armor (or cow for that matter.) they had some nice effects, a shame they weren't that practical.

A giant mutant pinguin!

yeah, I stack up on hearts then item crash like crazy, killed just 2/4ths of the boss's in the game liek that by using Richter.

another edit. Hopefully someone can do a better job with this one then me. I guess the last one can be used as a CD cover for the TV series.

final edit of anime guyver, if someone wanted, they could edit it to become a cd cover.

oh sorry, I thought you were playing the PSP version.

no it was posted before, love the vacume riding cat. That was funny as heck, my cat would runaway in fear instead, or simply attack it.

again, some nice intresting finds. Thanks again for all the efforts in posting them.

yeah, if you've seen the early versions of Godzilla and King Kong, you'd see some differences. Like an pointless narration by an American journalist in the American version (I prefer the Japanese version as a result). The king Kong vs Godzilla movie changed a lot of things about both monsters, like King Kong becoming much bigger then he was in his original movie.
