Origami Robot

> Of such great powers or beings there may be conceivably a survival... a survival of a hugely remote period when... consciousness was manifested, perhaps, in shapes and forms long since withdrawn before the tide of advancing humanity... forms of which poetry and legend alone have caught a flying memory and called them gods, monsters, mythical beings of all sorts and kinds...

Kevin van der Velden

@Yuuki wasn't the turning to salt bit someone else?

beings/concepts/whatever you want to call them

@KevinvanderVelden The reason in these cases usually involves either not believing in God or blasphemy or something.

Kevin van der Velden

@OrigamiRobot eeh that's something you might have a point on. However if you do apply mortal qualities to such a being/concept then saying it is good is... disgusting

user15026

@KevinvanderVelden not a scholar, so I am going to fuck this up. Basically, loads of the bad shit happened before Jesus did the whole cross and resurrection bit.

Kevin van der Velden

@Yuuki so? "OH NO HE DOES NOT BELIEVE IN ME LET ME MURDER HIM BRUTALLY"

@AshleyNunn I don't really see how that is supposed to make it better

2:30 PM

But in general, faith is a hard thing to argue. People believe stuff, other people don't, and in general, after a bit, these discussions will make someone have a sad face and/or feel offended because having to defend your stuff sucks.

Origami Robot

@KevinvanderVelden I tend to take what mortals say about the morals/motivations of such beings/concepts with a grain of salt that may or may not be Lot's wife.

user15026

@KevinvanderVelden because the Crucifixion in a lot of ways was a giant reset button on the ideas and functions of Christianity

Yuuki

@AshleyNunn From I can piecemeal together, essentially God has had it out for humanity ever since Adam and Eve ate from the Fruit of Knowledge (original sin, right?) and the Crucifixion was basically Jesus telling God, "Dude, it's been like forever. Let it go."

user15026

(which is why a lot of us play fast and loose with, say, most of Leviticus - it's not supposed to be a word for word law of do the things. A lot of Leviticus, when considered in context of when it was first written, was often trying to keep people from killing themselves because they didn't have the awesome tech/health care/food preservation etc that we have now

@Yuuki Kinda, yeah.

@Yuuki Heh, that's certainly an interesting take on it.

user15026

Mind you any religious book is going to have a million people with a million ideas on each verse, which is why you have so many denominations, because everyone interprets it different

I watched how to train your dragon 2 last night. I enjoyed it, but the first one was a lot better. I wonder what @JasonBerkan thought of it.

@AshleyNunn should watch the how to train the dragon movies if she already hasn't since they are on netflix and she would love them

Origami Robot

@Wipqozn No, the first one was amazing, but the 2nd was amazinger.

user15026

@wipqozn I still need to watch that. I liked the first one.

Origami Robot

How could you betray me like this?

2:36 PM

@OrigamiRobot I'm not even a little sorry.

Origami Robot

What a monster.

Wipqozn

oh there will be a third one

Kevin van der Velden

@AshleyNunn Honestly? So what? He is supposed to be all knowing and all good according to a lot of what I hear from christians, the things he did according to the bible are objectively not good. Him promising not to do it again does not suddenly make him the thing you measure goodness by

Wipqozn

This religious conversation is going places.

Frank

We're going down a rabbit hole that's not really going to end well.

Can we change the topic?

Kevin van der Velden

2:37 PM

Sure whatever

Wipqozn

@Frank I know you don't want @Sterno to be happy, but denying him drama is just mean!

Origami Robot

@KevinvanderVelden Job once questioned God on why wickedness exists.

Wipqozn

Sure, maybe this drama will cause upset and tensions amongst us, but stil!

Point is, I'm super handsome.

And modest.

@OrigamiRobot I just realized HTTYD2 came out on Father's Day weekend.

Frank

2:38 PM

@Wipqozn No, it's just that this is one of those super sensitive topics, and will cause misunderstandings through just a text medium.

Yuuki

Awkward...

> Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation? Tell me, if you understand. Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it? On what were its footings set, or who laid its cornerstone – Job 38:4-6 (NIV)

@Yuuki omg T_T

StrixVaria

@Yuuki I have to imagine this is spoilery in which case you bastard.

user15026

@KevinvanderVelden I am not the best person to argue this with you, and i would prefer not to because nothing I say will convince you and nothing you say will convince me, so I'd rather not start my day upset.

Kevin van der Velden

@OrigamiRobot Was Job's reply "How is that relevant? Being stronger does not give you the right to hurt those weaker than you"

Origami Robot

2:39 PM

@KevinvanderVelden God wasn't saying he was stronger.

Frank

I'm going to start posting model pictures again!

Kevin van der Velden

@Frank do that

@OrigamiRobot we can take this to another room if you want to continue :)

Powerlord

@Frank We should clearly start flagging things.

Q: Offical beta tester or QA parties for EA?

I was originally in CT (Combat Testing) and was wondering if EA has more official third party QA or beta testers like they did with Combat Testing? This seems like a open discussion but its not because EA does not hire many third parties to perform beta tests like Combat Testing once did for them...

@powerlord how about no?

Origami Robot

2:40 PM

I'm for it.

Kevin van der Velden

@Powerlord which part? The quoting the bible part or the morale that noone would (hopefully) disagree with?

Powerlord

@AshleyNunn How about stop discussing religion in gaming chat?

user15026

@powerlord if you haven't noticed, I am trying to do that?

Frank

That's my latest painted build.

Kevin van der Velden

@OrigamiRobot I created a thing

Frank

2:42 PM

And it's currently on my desk at work.

StrixVaria

@Powerlord We so rarely talk about actual gaming in this chat. This is a community room where people can talk about what they want so long as they keep it civil, respectful, and safe for work.

Yuuki

Since I still haven't gotten any WTFs, I'm assuming nobody looked at the gif I posted.
