Does the Bible say that you should not do anything unless it says so? It doesn't say to use computers, so should you not use computers?
I didn't say you were, I'd put such a thing far from you actually.
Have you tried it here? Because it was that bad for a very short time and I hated it, but I soon enough found myself waiting for other people to reply and now its just like anywhere else.
Doesn't the Bible tell us everything we need to know to worship God? And if I SHOULD be celebrating Easter, and it is wrong not to, wouldn't the Bible say to? And am I calling computers holy, or using them to worship God? Really? Why? Well, a little. Actually, I rely solely on my notifications to find replies for me. And it IS The Relaxed Chatroom.
Actually no, before the Bible was written Jesus and his Apostles spread His teachings orally. Eventually people saw the need to write down what Jesus had taught for the sake of preservation and many attempted, but the best ones we have are the four Gospels. John also wrote: "But there are also many other things which Jesus did; were every one of them to be written, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written" (John 21:25) So the Bible can't contain everything, that's why there's tradition to pass on what the Bible does not contain.
No, you can use stuff to worship God, but just saying you said the Bible doesn't say to celebrate Easter so you'd consider it wrong. By the same logic, it would appear wrong to execute actions it says not to do.
Oh, well I remember which threads I hang out in and look through the new pages manually for replies to stuff I say then use notifications to catch anything I may have missed.
{JAMMERS! -Stephanie- ONLY!} Neat, I can play some of the Ori and the Blind Forest soundtrack on the piano and it's really legit.
Yeah, but I don't want to draw all the time to get good at it because music is my passion.
That makes sense, but what I don't like is that people can dislike each other super easily as soon as they discover they have different views; that's kinda what happened.
Sounds like your trying to keep back negative adjectives in regards to Samantha.
{JAMMERS! -Blade Caster- ONLY!} Ori and the Blind Forest? I'm not sure what that is.... Music, eh. Do you like to sing? I can still be friends with people I do not agree with. Eh, Sam's fine.
Its not worth it. I have good memory though so I don't have to re-read it.
{JAMMERS! -Steffanie- ONLY!} Ori and the Blind Forest is the most awesome game I've ever played and it has one of the most awesome soundtracks ever. Its rated E so nothing to worry about.
Nah, I only sing in church, but even then I can't sing like I used to because I hurt my vocal chords.
Yeah, but different views open a ravine that can easily get larger and larger with little effort.
I already got that idea from my own perceptions, but I'd go a little further than that.

Oh, and another thing. Galations 4:10. "You observe days and months and seasons and years. I am afraid for you, lest I have laboured for you in vain."
Okay, so it is important with Scripture to understand it in the context which it is written. Looking at Galatians 4:10 by itself, it is very easy to come off with the idea that observing time, holidays, or stuff like that is evil. But you see Paul wrote that quote in a letter to Galatians who were still observing the the Old Covenant and its festivals. (Hence the days, months, seasons and years.) That quote was for the Galatians who were not adhering to New Covenant, but I adhere to the New Covenant so using that quote on me doesn't really work.
I actually really, really liked it... I think I may actually agree 100% with Mr. Gunn on this one. Any particular reason you disliked it?
Just for the record, the Thor trailer has made Thor my most anticipated MCU movie this year, more than Spidey or GOTG2
Agreed. Though, also for the record, it technically already was. I'm a bigger Thor fan than I am a GotG one, and I'm really just not feeling it with the Spidey trailers.
It depends. Tell me what you would want and I'll see.
Well, why don't you just surprise me, for the most part? Just make it something super nerdy with lots of references to SW, Marvel, Star Trek, LotR, and all those type of stuff... Also put the numbers 4 8 15 16 23 42 in there somewhere.
Yeah... Still, there's a surprisingly large number of people here, when you think about it. I never imagined that so many LMBers would be able to gather on a single website, I thought we'd be spread all over the place.
It's pretty legit.
But I saw one of the mods say that there are a few other lego sites like this one so I guess it makes sense that after the original MBs that they'd just move onto the next one.
True. I just never imagined people finding a way to spread the word about a next one. BTW, what's up with the new background?
Ah. Well, any improvement is good I suppose... Good luck, though.
How has everything else been going in life?
Thanks, I expect great progress will be made soon.
Disappointment after disappointment, but through making music I've developed a great love for music so I can just listen to songs I really like to boost moral. But I've learned to stop caring about disappointment because all it does is wreck and if I don't care it can't bother me.
That's great news!
Ah. Well, you're certainly better at managing disappointment than I am. I'd probably pout in the corner or something. Is your music online anywhere? I'd love to listen to it, if it is.
Ah. Yeah, Kong was a fun film. I didn't get to see the superhero film yet, and I've not seen the LEGO Batman Movie... How was it?
I've heard really mixed reviews about Kong. My dad saw it, and he didn't really like it, and my go-to movie critic overall didn't like it, but fans of the genre and other critics seem to really like it. And I've heard some say the characters were way less interesting than the characters in the 2014 Godzilla and some say they were way more interesting. So, if and when I see the movie, I honestly don't know what to expect.
The LEGO Batman Movie was a fun film. If you're a Batman fan you should definitely see it, it makes tons of funny references to past movies. And the animation is incredible. It's not as good and The LEGO Movie, but it's a fun film.
Yeah, I think that it really depends upon what you go into the theatre expecting. It's very different from Godzilla... Kong is, as I said, a fun film. It's terribly memorable, or really amazing, or anything like that, but if you go in looking for a fun way to spend a couple hours with some monster thrills then you'll probably get what you expect. That's generally what I expect from Monster films, so I had fun while I watched it. As for the characters, I can definitely understand where both sides were coming from. Most of the characters were incredibly dull and didn't have very much to them, including the two 'main' characters, played by Hiddleston and Larson. However, there's two or three characters which are VERY interesting (at least to me) and they blow away the characters in Godzilla. Jackson and Reilly definitely have the standout performances.
Ooh, neat. I'll probably get it on DVD as I did with the LEGO Movie. Nerdy references are definitely my type of humor, so I'll probably really like it.
I think I saw the Americanized version... Didn't think it counted, though, because the story is so different.
Oh. What one are you on now?
The story is pretty much the same, but it's just told from a more American perspective, which means less characterization for the true main characters, and more Raymond Burr babbling on about what's happening. It's a good movie either way, but the American one is less... impactful.
I watched the 1954 one a week ago, I will be watching the second one either tonight or this weekend. It's called Godzilla Raids Again , was released in 1955 in Japan, and was released as Gigantis the Fire Monster in the U.S., despite there being nothing called gigantis in the film.
Mhm. Plus, as I understand it, the original Godzilla was a bit of an allegory for Nagasaki and Hiroshima, which really doesn't work as well when you put it from an American perspective for so many obvious reasons.
I've definitely seen that one! I don't remember anything about it, but I saw it relatively recently.
Looking a lot like Empire Strikes Back, though. I luv Empire, but I want new plots!
I don't think the plot is going to be anything like Empire though, besides the training scenes. The TONE looks very similar to Empire, however, which has me super excited.
I actually really, really liked it... I think I may actually agree 100% with Mr. Gunn on this one. Any particular reason you disliked it?
I didn't actually dislike. I only got mixed feelings (although I'm starting to like it even more now tho), mostly because I thought the music doesn't fit and the trailer doesn't look at all dark. But hey, it was recently confirmed by Kevin Feige that the MCU won't go dark (I'm not a DC fanboy btw. I'm just a DC follower, equally with Marvel), though there have already been dark moments throughout the MCU already (tbh, I consider The Winter Soldier and Civil War dark movies).
Ah. I can see why that might have been surprising if all you knew was that it was called something that means the end of the world... I knew it was going to have lots of comedy for a while now, so I wasn't surprised by the light tone.
I also definitely agree on TWS and CW... They were quite dark for MCU films.
Well, by susceptible I mean that it's very vulnerable to earthquakes and you get a lot of them... Which it sounds like is the case.
Ah. I'll pray.
We don't get a lot of earthquakes, but yeah, we recently got a lot of earthquakes (particularly last week, from the top of the country till the bottom).
That can't be good. I wonder why they never covered this on the news over here? Seems like pretty important stuff.
