  1. All Killer, he was busting on your avatar. It says "I was born leet"...he said "So what happened?". Get it now? It is actually a pretty good, subtle, obviously meant in jest, bust. I award Congregation 1 point for the bust and one point for the subtlety. 2 points to Congregation.
  2. The Puppy that lost it's way
  3. For some reason, I don't think the admins are lacking in the "fun" department.
  4. Might be my firewall blocking you...PM me your IP address and I will give you perms. If you don't know your Internet-routable IP, the quickest way to find it is to go to http://www.whatismyip.com .
  5. g00ters...watch it with them slanderous "idi0t" comments...aight?
  6. Oooooooo, Cong....nice burn. They good ones always leave the person scratching their heads.
  7. Men with chesticles need a Bro for support.
  8. Congrats on your team taking off Cong...I haven't been intersted in the Royals since George Brett and the scandalous "pine tar" incident.
  9. Most states, although not posted, have minimum speed limits as well (I think about 10 under the posted max) and is just as ticketable as speeding (even as reckless driving if they are causing enough of a back log of traffic).
  10. Soul, I apologize if that came off as flaming, it was not my intent. I merely intended to point out that your argument was severely weakened by the mistake. It made it seem that you were just drawing on a distant memory because had you actually researched it you wouldn't have missed such an obvious point (meaning, if you had looked up the word in the original text, you would have known what the original language was). Also, please cite the verse you are referring to and your reference for the etymology of said word. You keep saying it is a proven fact but yet you have not shown the proof. Not trying to be difficult here, just a desire to learn. Next, the Old Testament is a combination of Hebrew and Aramaic. The New Testament was written almost entirely in Greek except for when the OT was quoted, then it was mostly Aramaic (IIRC). While it is true that Latin was used greatly for formal speaking, the NT was written in Koine Greek (basically simple speech) so that ALL people would have the opportunity to read it and understand it. As for who says what is a sin, I agree with Congregation here. Where God has specifically called out certain practices as sin, what is more important is that he has given us a standard of morals to live by. Jesus broke down the 10 commandments into the following 2, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength, and love your neighbor as yourself." It is not our place as Christians to judge a person. It is our place to show them the Love of Christ. Ace, I am in full agreement with you regarding your reference to Matthew Shepard's funeral. Actions like that, especially coming from fellow "believer's" (if they truly are) sickens me. The heart of God weeps over all of His children. He does not scorn them.
  11. Bah, I sent the update to Kemo a while ago...here is the development page that has been updated. http://drevil.cc.vt.edu/vi/
  12. I believe that to "get to heaven", one has to be in a right relationship with God. I believe that because of Adam's original sin there is a monumental rift between God and me and it is impossible for me in and of myself to bridge that rift. I believe that Jesus (The Word Incarnate and one third of the Triune Godhead) came to earth as wholly God and wholly man, gave up the use of His Godly powers, and lived the life of a normal man as an example of successful Spirit-filled living. I believe He willfully chose to die on the Cross so that his unblemished blood could pay the price of atonement for all sin (past, present, and future). I believe He was dead and buried in the tomb for 3 days, then arose again, and is now seated at the right hand of God where He is in constant intercessory prayer for us. I also believe that all this is not enough to save my soul. I believe that, while there is nothing I can do to save myself or bridge the gap, I do believe that I have to, through the Holy Spirit's prompting, accept this free gift of life.
  13. Soul, your whole "educated" argument gets thrown out the window by your repeated references to the New Testament's definition of "homosexual" being the Hebrew word "catamites". The New Testament's original language is Greek, not Hebrew. Also, people forget that while God is Love, He is also Just. And being Just, He can not stand to look upon sin of any kind, whether this be adultery, lying, stealing, sexual perversian, etc. Sin is not what keeps a person from going to heaven. Unacceptance of Jesus' sacrificial act on the cross does. Without His unblemished blood, we are doomed. Also, the Bible doesn't condemn a person for a sin. Everyone sins and falls short of the glory of God. What is specifically spoken against is the "practice" (continual participation in/lack of repentance (which means turning away from the sin and turning to God)) of sin. Does "practicing homosexuality" prevent a person from going to heaven? Not sure, I don't know the person's heart. But I do know that 1 John 2:4-6 says this:
  14. Not sure, I have always set my Windows sensitivity how I like it, then changed the in-game sensitivity to adjust. My in-game sens is at 1.5.
  15. We have a meager site (just a front page right now) at www.the-village-idiots.com and www.vi4l.com (this made your sig website catch my eye).
  16. Cowboy, you do realize that "Narc" is short for 82DGarcotics Officer" right?
  17. http://www.counter-strike.net/ Just keep clicking on a different mirror until you get a good speed. If you need the HL patch as well then what I normally do is go to the site of one of the mirrors and browse around until I find it. Anyone hosting the CS Mod files should be hosting the HL update files as well.
