Same, I don't get its popularity either. All it does is spin. Wow! I'm totally amazed that this is my first time seeing something spin! Awesome!
(Disclaimer: I don't hate them at all in case you think I hate it like it's the worst thing ever made. It's just that, I don't get how it got so popular.)
These are my thoughts exactly. It's popularity just baffles me. It's one of those things I feel like most people wouldn't care about normally, but think it's the greatest thing ever now because you're SUPPOSED to like it. I mean, maybe I'm wrong, but that's the feeling I get.
Its popularity is really impossible to understand imo. It spins! Amazing!
Yup, but apparently, they treat it like it's a new gadget or something. Same.
If a person has true faith in Scripture, I think that if they are properly shown in Scripture how they are wrong, it would work. But yes, the most important thing is a person's heart. Whether or not they are willing to change.
Yeah, but the thing about Scripture is that even with that it's hard to prove yourself right or someone else wrong. SO MUCH of scripture is symbolic, and also SO MUCH is not symbolic, and everything has layered meaning. The problem is, what I take as literal and not symbolic as a Catholic, you often take as symbolic and not literal as a Protestant, and vice versa. It's not always that people just aren't willing to change, it's just that even though we both believe in the Bible, we think if it in different ways. So when I'm saying "In the Bible it says 'X', so therefore 'X' is true and you're wrong.", you could say "Oh, but 'X' was just meant symbolically according to how I interpret the Bible, and isn't actually literally true." The question is, how could I prove that the passage is meant literally? Or how could you prove it was meant symbolically? That's the difficulty.
Yes, I do get what you're saying. And that does tend to happen. In that case it would be a question of how to interpret the Bible. I actually don't find it that hard, but it can be. So, if you can get the person to understand how to read it, and how to take the context, it should be fine. But that is the real challenge, if they will accept.
{JAMMERS! -same- ONLY!} OKAY. This is hilariously ironic, though. *considers starting new order because Jedi are too corrupt* *changes mind and decides to look the other way when offered power* ((not trying to sway you, I just legitimately found it funny.))
{JAMMERS! -Same- ONLY!} UGH! How can I make you understand. *thinks* I wasn't getting anywhere. I was getting annoyed, left behind. rejected and forgotten. I should've had a Council Seat ages ago, but nobody cared about me that much. But now, I was noticed! And I may just get that council seat! Now, you can join the Jedi, and I'll get you trained and through the Trials in approximately a week. Or you can wait, to see how this goes. The B is troubling me.
Hm? Not normal for an adult, young or otherwise, to be interested in toys?? I see where you're coming from, but I, like Walt Disney, don't see things that way.
If you want to be a Toys R Us kid, fine. I understand never wanting to grow up.
