My good chum
Well "seek christ" I can see that for, but people discussing the bible like in depth seems to come up in almost every thread at some point, no matter how unrelated to religion the topic.

"People are being jerks at kunark camps"

"Please read exodus chapter 3"

That's because, at its roots "Magic", and EQ by extension, derives it's theme from qaballistic and esoteric christian myth.

My apologies if your mid-wit is unable to see that connection, but it's fairly inarguable to state that the developers designing the game did not.

They literally have mobs who cast magic spells named qaballists or cabalist's.

The spells characters use derive their nomenclature from esoteric concepts. The list goes on and on, and here we are 20 years later...enthralled by the creation of a world where said concepts are explored, utilized, reified, and expounded upon while the large majority of playerbase claims to be atheist ( which is really just code for anti-Christian) muddling away and allocating the lions share of their life's time enamored by it.

If it's all bullshit, then why do you spend your entire life mesmerized by, and toying with, the concepts?

If you want to slam something at least speak proper egnrish.
Now if you had stated "by today's social standards" I would have let it slide. Your improper statements fuel these less educated minds that actually think the way you improperly said it. Which I know is not how you meant it and that you're not one of the uneducated minds I spoke of prior.

Information is power. How you convey information is powerful.
In our time, it's OK to murder babies in utero for convenience, while it's not OK to go the gym.


I wouldn't put very much stock in today's standards of moral relativity.

This is probably the most incorrect way to view the bible.

it is very clearly history and cultural docteran.

For you to mix that up with hocus pocus and science ideas, just shows you have never realy learned the 10,000 year history, and I dont blame you, thats a lot of history.

Most atheist have this fake 90s hollywood image of the bible. That it's about a magic man and prophecy and all kinds of miracles and stuff. The only people that think that are people who know very little about history and the books themself.

There is only one reason to hate christian/jewish religion: you are an american (approx 30-50 years old) the american generation that rebelled against evangelical christianity in high school, or you're a marxist/fascist/ilslamic extremist.

Trumptard ≠ Republican

He's such a stupid smug prick, just like his hero. He needs to take his medicine.

Donald trump is actually quite self deprecating and humorous. You on the other hand, do come accross as quite a stupid smug prick.

Make a joke about yourself sometime, it's fun! It lowers the temperature in the whole room. It's good to do.

For sure, but I also remember reading about him in The 48 Laws of Power where Greene talks about how amazing it was that the son of a cheese merchant with minimal navigational skills managed to play the Iberian royals so well. Not just Isabella (of the Spanish Inquisition!) but Joao took him seriously. The man wanted 10% of all revenue from his discoveries in perpetuity! This would have made him and his heirs the wealthiest people in the world, but Isabella managed to sneak in a footnote that invalidated it, and Columbus never read the fine print, because, well, see paragraph #1 . . .

Jesus says that one can know the truth of spiritual teachings by their fruits, and the fruits of Judaism and Christianity have been 3000 years of constant war, oppression, and slavery.
