It gets a more interesting place the more religions there are! Cheesy
Kopimism is for example a quite new and very interesting one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missionary_Church_of_Kopimism
You mean they add more craziness to this world? Yeah this is an interesting one, I've heard about it before.
Some does, some promotes peace and understanding. But still, the world would not be as interesting without religions.

What the hell is that?

My newly created religion the religion for the modern world.  Smiley
You've created a new religion yourself? Does the world look like we need more?

Non existence does not exist.  Anything is possible.

I will defy physics soon enough.
The day you prove to me that you can fly (without using any tools), then I'll start believing in what you say! Cheesy

Hmm, that must be "Mission impossible". Completely worthless IMO. I cannot at all see why that got so hyped?
Someone care to explain to me? Smiley

Mission Impossible. Ghost Protocol is not that bad at all. I'm not a fan of Tom Cruise as a person and that sometimes influences my opinion on a film. Even with this point in the back of my mind I must say that Tom Cruise still got it. He's a fantastic actor who doesn't even chose to have a stunt double in MI4. I couldn't even think of trying some of these. Now to the main film. You may think it's going to be just like all the other action movies and all the other Mission: Impossible parts. But with every new part of the series it gets even more spectacular: the equipment is beyond imagination, the locations are mind blowing, the secret plans are super clever, the characters are cool and smart. Also the trailer was that good that I just wanted to see this at the movies and couldn't wait for it to be released. I haven't seen any MI film at the movies and this was definitely a great decision. The best action film in years.

I've only seen the first one. It just felt a bit (read very) incoherent. I didn't feel I got to know anything about the characters either, so it didn't exactly make me wanna see any sequels.

Sorry dude, I don't think anyone will buy that. It's an old phone, not very advanced, and it has a very high price… Maybe you could sell it if you lowered the price a lot.

PS. You photos doesn't work!

Right now I'm not developing any games, but the game engines I've used have been Unity 3d and Blender. Unity is way easier, however, unless you have the full version it's quite locked what you can do with the graphics.
Yes, unity is good and has a free version. Blender is good for modeling otherwise.
Yes, it is! It's my favorite modeling software. Open-source, free and powerful. Everything you need basically, however it was quite hard to learn at first with that hotkey based system!

If the more "traditional" magic was real, (I mean with weird spells that can do lots of weird spells), it would be possible to explain with magic. If that's what you meant?

Wouldn't 100% alcohol kill you? I cant imagine it'd be very good for you.

Spirytus Rektyfikowany contains 96% alcohol.

Here is a video of someone who is drinking it:

96% jeeze. Can you get 100%?
Yes, but as soon as it comes in contact with air the alcohol rate drops with a few percents.

Does that happen with normal alcohol?
Well, eventually yes, but that immediate percent drop only applies when it's more than 96% alcohol. So don't worry, you won't get less drunk from your vodka than you actually should be! Cheesy

Wait, what? Who doesn't like spring? Fair warm weather but not hot yet enough to need A/C all the time... what's there to complain about?

It's the shittest of all seasons. Nobody cares about spring lol.
Why do you think that? Spring is my second favorite season! In this order: Summer, Spring, Winter, Autumn.
What is it with spring you don't like? Are you allergic or something?

I wouldn't. And to be honest I don't think many people really does.
So you like the fact that the human body is weak and can be destroyed easily?
I do prefer that over being a machine. Anyway, thanks to all the stem cell research being done right now, we'll soon be able to replace any parts of us that's damaged.
I wouldn't. And to be honest I don't think many people really does.

Imagine how awesome would be if your body was tough enough to withstand punches and kicks without a scratch.

People would be fighting eachother cause it's fun, only thing that could hurt would be weapons.. or words. Sad
Unless we replace the part of the brain that controls feeling. Then we'd be cold, calculating, 100% rational machines. Sounds like fun, doesn't it?

Define 'spirituality'. A lot of people seem to use that word and everybody seems to have a different definition (or they don't actually know what they mean themselves when they use it  Cheesy).
Your spirit. Everything around us. We're all connected in some way. It's important to search for peace within, and peace with the world around us. You don't have to believe in any gods, or in some greater power, but you still have to believe in yourself and that thing that is you. Not only will you feel peaceful and good, you will probably become a "better" person to everyone else.
That's spirituality to me! Smiley
You don't necessarily need a religion, but I believe spirituality is very important for the human mind. The world becomes much more beautiful with that added.

I don't think it does.
Have you ever tried it? Otherwise you should totally try it out! Smiley

"God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. Yet his shadow still looms. How shall we comfort ourselves, the murderers of all murderers? What was holiest and mightiest of all that the world has yet owned has bled to death under our knives: who will wipe this blood off us?" Nietzsche, "They Gay Science"

Nothing against religion, but I really think we shouldn't  try to find meaning to life through religion. We are free and should be responsible by our own actions and try to surpass ourselves because that is the only good thing worth doing, and not because we want to get to heaven or something like that. Strange things have been done in name on religions, because people sometimes just stop thinking for themselves and just get swallowed by dogmas.
I think religion is as such a good thing. Almost all religions has the message "Don't be a douche" as the most important one, even though they can have crazy rules around it. But the "Don't be a douche" rule is a good one. Some people however, stops thinking for themselves and instead only follows "whatever the holy book/script is called". That's not a good thing. Also, the world would be quite a boring place if it wasn't for religions and stuff.

If only it did just say 'don't be a douche'. We don't need to get our morality from the bible or any other religious texts. There's a hell of a lot of immoral things in there that people tend to ignore.
Exactly, and that's my point about "people must not stop thinking for themselves". The overall message is usually acceptance and forgiveness, but there's a lot of other weird stuff in there as well.

But you don't need religion to get to that message. If you just try to surpass yourself you don't really need to take advantage over others. You can grow without being a "douche". The thing is, that to really be part of a religion that means that you should obey their rules. Ant they have so many strange things in them. For instance Christianity (and many others) have so many taboos about the body and pleasure. It makes no sense. And some people take it so seriously the they make stupid things about it.
If your goal is to learn, be educated (in an ethic way, not just get a job) you really don't need a religion, because they just narrow your will to grow. (and again grow in a proper way, not take advantage over others)
You don't necessarily need a religion, but I believe spirituality is very important for the human mind. The world becomes much more beautiful with that added.

Don't think the bible mentioned douches LOL.
My point is that everything shall not be taken literally in these holy books, but instead we should learn from the essential things, which is "Don't be a douche".
