    Reality vs Adventure got a reaction from The Blackangel in The connection between Religion and Politics   
    Religion is oppressive by nature. Religion is what brought us the Dark Ages. In ancient Egypt, only the religious leaders had the right to read and write, to be educated, and to hold skillful jobs. Look at the Taliban making women cover themselves head to toe while paraded around by men with rifles. Religion is the gateway to oppression. In America, religion should NOT be in politics. Christianity is a tax exempt organization. If they quote the bible while writing their bills and ruling on cases, then christianity needs to be taxed. Then we also have the Establishment Clause in the 1st amendment which gives us freedom from religion and also protects religion from the government. A perfect example of what not to do is how republicans treat religion in America. Trump is now a convicted felon, a sex offender, and a fraud, who went and sold bibles with a bunch of government documents in it. Isn't that blatant sacrilege? 
    And imagine if your religion is not the religion of the government. They will not tolerate your religious rights. Imagine your kids forced to go to schools that indoctrinate religion that teaches them things against your own religion. That’s what a religious government will do, it will infect schools, colleges, businesses, jobs, advertisements, music, movies, radio, media, science, and your personal lives in every way.
    Religion is poison. It’s an obsession that gradually becomes more and more fanatical with every generation as politicians want to act more morally superior than their opponents. And the whole essence of religious teachings get thrown out the window and becomes unrecognizable as a religious belief, and more like a cult terroristic belief. Progression goes backwards instead of the natural evolution of human progression with the arts, science, technology, philosophy. It wasn’t a religious government that gave us all the much needed technologies of today. Galileo was jailed for his research saying the Earth revolved around the sun and not the other way around. 
    Religion as the basis of politics will bring society into the Dark Ages. Go back to the days of looking for witches to burn and everyone is ignorant and illiterate. And that is why I say christians in America are fakes. They are infiltrating christianity and turning it into terrorist cells, re-education centers, nazi propaganda and Russian propaganda centers. They hide behind religion to do their evil deeds, and christians let them do it. They are enablers. In fact, the Federalist Society and Heritage Foundation are two major republican religious groups in the USA who have full intention to destroy American democracy and have a dictatorship. Those organizations wrote up the plan Project 2025 where if Trump is elected, they will increase presidential powers, get rid of checks and balances, and fire all federal employees and replace them with maga loyalists. They actually wrote that plan up. No shame at all. And those religious groups handpicked our supreme court justices. The SC justices hold loyalty to the Federalist Society and Heritage Foundation, not loyalty to our constitution. Those justices are the most corrupted in the entire history of the USA and they claim to be religious. They literally take bribes and have no ethical oversight, and they refuse to hold each other accountable for any ethics violations. They are traitors. They are protecting Trump by intentionally delaying his trials. They are abusing their power in aiding, abetting, and providing comfort to traitor Trump who had a coup attempt. 
    Religion is poison and nothing good comes from it when it's mixed with politics. Religion IS the embodiment of evil.

    Reality vs Adventure got a reaction from Knight Plug in Resident Evil 9 could be open-world?   
    Put it this way, the only way I’ll ever play an RE game again is if it goes open world. For me, the series lost its baddangadang. RE7 was the last I played and it was really scary and no doubt I loved the horror. It was amazing. But where does RE go from that success? I will never sit through another RE game simply because of their run around puzzles. I’m done with it. I hate their puzzles. Not to diss RE, I’m dissing puzzles. It’s not for me. But Ironically, I played RE DLC where a prisoner was bed chained and the puzzle was how to escape. That was fucking amazing. But of course, it was DLC and not the main game. I guess I don’t really hate puzzles, I just hate useless puzzles which RE was always about. Open world it and see what happens. I would be more interested in that. And if you don’t, give us pure life or death puzzles like trying to escape a bed, being fed nasty soup, probably made of human remains. Yeah, if you don’t bring that kind of puzzle, then I’m done with you.

    Reality vs Adventure got a reaction from killamch89 in Is There Such a Thing as Fate?   
    Everything is really random. But sometimes things feel like fate because things fall into place perfectly. And people become so amazed and resort to spirituality to give them a sense of understanding. The best fate I ever encountered was when I met my baby girl, my kitten 16 years ago. I was out of town in extreme heat weather. I had my foot run over by a car due to a squabble and had to get crutches later. On the way home our car broke down from over heating. But shit, my friend was a mechanic (fate?) When I made it home I found this kitten laying in front of my front door in an apartment complex. She looked dead, I didn't see her chest breathing. I nudged her with my foot to see if she was still alive. She moved and I immediately gave her water and tuna. Her eyes were sealed shut from some kind of infection. She laid down to die, in front of my door. I took her in. She was covered in fleas. I put her in the tub and the water turned red with blood and thousands of fleas drowning. I got a towel and rubbed her left eye clean. She immediately started purring. I cleaned her other eye and she purred again. Later, 3 years later, she's calico BTW, 3 years later her left eye turned amber color. She had two different color eyes at 3 years old!!! That to me is something special. But I think about her every day. It seemed like fate to me. Everything. What are the chance at that moment to arrive home and find her in front of my door like a gift from the heavens. Was it all just random? That is the only thing that questions my reality.

    Well I hope this doesn’t go to the Supreme Court because they will say school mass  shooters have immunity as long as it’s in Hispanic communities. Then the Supreme Court will protect the gun industry and declare games and developers open season to sue. This Supreme Court will grant every lawsuit against Meta to annihilate competition for X, which is the Supreme courts preferred Nazi social media. X is their Nazi fantasy.

    This is the insanity I'm talking about right here. Republicans are saying Trump is just like Jesus because Trump is a convicted felon and Jesus was crucified on a cross. Does that mean all convicted felons are just like Jesus now??? Did Jesus fuck a porn star and pay hush money with holy water and falsify the bible scriptures so that he would look good giving his sermons???

    Reality vs Adventure got a reaction from Heatman in Even had your haircut by yourself?   
    I cut my own hair all the time for the past few years now. It's easy to do. The hardest part is making the back even, the shave line. I got tired of spending $20 plus a tip for a haircut, a simple haircut at that and then make small talk to someone all up in my business. I actually did shave my head once like an insane psychopath similar to that movie Natural Born Killers when he shaved his head. Except I was drunk, going nuts do to personal family issues, and left scabs on my head. It did feel like a giant weight lifted from me though when I did that. So, beware a skin head with skabs, they are going through something.

    When I said “in the beginning” I meant thousands of years ago. When people knew nothing about the world around them, and started looking for something to explain everything. That is when religion began forming. The result is a downfall of civilized man. Everyone then and now wage wars and genocide all because of a different religious title. Religion is one of the worst plagues on this planet. To get to true morality and compassion, religion has no place in our lives.

    Let me make this clear. Religion did NOT give morality. Religion has many beliefs in human history. Morality came from our natural instinct as humans. We have intelligence. We have sympathy. We can learn from mistakes. We can identify suffering. We don't need religion to teach us right from wrong. Religion attracts people who are abusers. People who want to hide behind a code of ethics, to swing their fist in the air, to act moral, to act superior, at the same time they incite hate. That is religion. True morality doesn't need a book written by man. True morality is natural. It's intelligence. Morality is intelligence. The less intelligence people have, the more immoral they become. I'm not talking about IQ. I'm talking about pure human intelligence. Religion is not intelligence. It's irrational, unintelligent. Religion attracts the unintelligent, people willing to give up their rationality. Religion is the opposite of intelligence. People willing to bow down in weakness instead of having an independent mind. Religion takes that independent mind away we are born with. Religion make humans completely stupid. Intelligence is not book smart, it is not ambition, it is not an evil genius, it is not power. Intelligence is morality, NOT religion. Intelligence allows us to have the greatest ethics. Religion is the dumbing down of intelligence. The dumbing down of morality. It's funny every time a religious person asks the question, "where do you get your ethics then?" I was born with ethics until religion took it away. You can propose the 10 commandments, then worship a guy like Trump that breaks all 10 commandments. I ask religious folk, where do you get your ethics from? A book you read? A brainwashed parent? You had ethics before religion tainted your mind. You were smart before religion brought you irrationality. Religion does not teach morality. Religion teaches evil, to hate others, to let go of morality, to let go of your intelligence.

    Reality vs Adventure reacted to The Blackangel in Is religion necessary?   
    Religion as a whole, is unnecessary. It creates nothing but problems that are almost exclusively born from ignorance and bigotry. One religion hating another for some whackjob reason creates nothing good. Believe whatever the hell you want, but religion is more of a problem than anything. If it was possible to eliminate religion, but keep faith/belief in something other than some meaningless title (Muslim, Jew, Hindu, xtian etc.) then the world would be a much better place.

    They are awesome. You would love them. I used to have a few quartz singing bowls but I gave them to my friend that had autism and he loved them! I figured it would benefit him more than me. I sure did love them bowls though. My favorite was the C note, bowls come in different notes. It feels real good to listen to them, therapeutic. Tibetan ones are made from bronze I think, but there are quartz ones too. Can't go wrong with either one.

    Reality vs Adventure got a reaction from killamch89 in What's Your Favorite Precious Stone?   
    This is the best topic ever!!!!! 1st, I collect mineral specimens and have gorgeous gemstones. This sounds ridiculous, but my all time favorite stone is pyrite, also known as fools gold. The reason is because it’s crystal structure is cubic, perfect cubes growing within another cube. I have a giant 2.5 inch cubic flawless pyrite with sharp edges. So amazing. I have pyrite necklaces and have about 20 different pyrite specimens. Sometimes the cubes are flattened naturally in mine on black slate and it looks like a golden flower. Pyrite is so amazing despite the funny name of fools gold, because many times it’s golden and shiny looking like gold. The best pyrite cubes are found in Spain, the same region in Spain my ancestors are from. 
     
    There are so many types of stones I love though. Lapis Lazuli has beautiful deep blues which are so therapeutic to look at. It grows often with pyrite, giving golden flakes in beautiful deep blue. 
     
    Opals are awesome reflecting so many different colors because it’s chemical formula is silica with H2O. 
     
    I have the most beautiful large Citrine gemstone. The orange color will put you in a trans. 
     
    I can go on and on. Galena is another I love. It’s cubic properties are similar to pyrite, but shiny silver instead. Galena is made from lead.

    Last RE I played was 7; it was good and it terrified me. But I'm all burnt out of the chasing you games and running around for puzzles. That is the direction RE has taken and always has been. Chases and run around puzzles. If they stopped with their little puzzles, and had a progressive game where you keep moving forward, they would have the best horror game. But I'm done with RE.
