[Kevin]

Bah, get over it.

I'm not religious, I think religion is for weak minded individuals that need to believe in something.

...

 

[Sloth7d]

it was uncalled for but that's what happens on the Hype I guess

Nope thats what happens... in America.

 

[Sloth7d]

Dear Jesus, protect me from your followers.

Nope, Jesus can't save you now.
Its the 11th commandment.
Thou shalt not calleth my followers weak minded fools on the internet, less ye be flamed for infinite forum pages... in America!

Well, it depends on how "religious" is defined.

I believe in G-d, I believe he is the creator of the Universe and everything in it including his human creation. I believe that our intentions and our actions will dictate the experience of our existence to that of heaven or hell (which I believe is more of a state of mind than an actual place.)

I believe we will have to answer to that G-d on Judgment day due to a system of Justice that is enforced in that creator so that every wrong will we righted and every good deed will be rewarded.

The focus of my life is to turn my beliefs into actions that are befitting of them.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

How religious you are.

 

[raybia]

I believe that phrase reeks of self-righteousness but I don't consider myself righteous, I'm just trying my best to be a good person and learn from the many mistakes that I have and continue to make.

The interesting thing is that people who felt offended obviously didn't read the Bible. EVERY SINGLE ACT shown in that "warning sticker" is depicter there, in graphic detail. There's nary a speck of lie there.

 

[Mr Sparkle]

3 dev...how religious YOU are?
would you me tell?

 

[3 Dev Adam]

Not religious at all.

I'm agnostic. Look it up, or watch the deleted scenes from Donnie Darko.

LOL, yeah, that's also my source for knowledge, the deleted scenes from Donnie Darko.

I was almost ready to take this thread seriously until I saw that. Thats like someone saying you can learn to ride a bike by watching someone do it on TV.

On the deleted scenes of Donnie Darko, there's a very clear, simple and to-the-point explanation of the differences between an atheist and an agnostic, hence the suggestion.

So, it IS a valid reference.

Your "learning to ride a bike thru TV" comparison doesn't aply. Riding a bike is something physical. The definition of "agnostic" is something intelectual, and you can either read about it or, in the case of the DVD, have it spelled for you.

Oh totally.
I'd tell you what to do with your reply,
but you'd have to watch " anal ****s 3"
because those women stick things up their ass.
so it's a valid reference.

Yeah. Sure. Because everything they show in the films is true. They can't possibly be innacurate and they always give you all the information you need. Right.

Thanks, but I prefer to get my information from reliable sources.

we could do this all day


and get nowhere

Yes we could, so next time, don't start a fire, then try to stop it with gasoline.

Lady, you can look up "agnostic" on a dictionary, but what is said on the movie is exactly what you'll see at the Encyclopaedia Britannica, only in layman terms.

But if you really want reliable sources, here they are:

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/agnostic
http://azaz.essortment.com/agnosticdefinit_rmak.htm

And here's the quote from the movie: "An agnostic does not deny the existence of God and heaven but holds that one cannot know for certain whether or not they exist".

I know what 'agnostic' is. I had to write a paper on it to pass highschool RS. Thats why I'd be sceptical about getting information from a movie, or indeed any TV show. Surely sceptiscism is something that should come inbuilt?

Lady, this particular scene is not about how bugs can become giant (a scientific improbability) or how bombs and lasers make sound in space.

It's a scene with a well researched explanation of agnosticism, just like the final sequence from "Psycho" was the 60's theory about split personality and definition of tranvestism. (Obviously, those concepts evolved thru time).


http://akas.imdb.com/name/nm0282418/

Officer: He's a tranvestite!
Dr. Fred Richmond: Ah, not exactly. A man who dresses in women's clothing in order to achieve a sexual change, or satisfaction, is a transvestite. But in Norman's case, he was simply doing everything possible to keep alive the illusion of his mother being alive. And when reality came too close, when danger or desire threatened that illusion - he dressed up, even to a cheap wig he bought. He'd walk about the house, sit in her chair, speak in her voice. He tried to be mother! And uh now he is.

http://akas.imdb.com/name/nm0643000/

Dr. Fred Richmond: Like I said... the mother... Now to understand it the way I understood it, hearing it from the mother... that is, from the mother half of Norman's mind... you have to go back ten years, to the time when Norman murdered his mother and her lover. Now he was already dangerously disturbed, had been ever since his father died. His mother was a clinging, demanding woman, and for years the two of them lived as if there was no one else in the world. Then she met a man... and it seemed to Norman that she 'threw him over' for this man. Now that pushed him over the line and he killed 'em both. Matricide is probably the most unbearable crime of all... most unbearable to the son who commits it. So he had to erase the crime, at least in his own mind. He stole her corpse. A weighted coffin was buried. He hid the body in the fruit cellar. Even treated it to keep it as well as it would keep. And that still wasn't enough. She was there! But she was a corpse. So he began to think and speak for her, give her half his time, so to speak. At times he could be both personalities, carry on conversations. At other times, the mother half took over completely. Now he was never all Norman, but he was often only mother. And because he was so pathologically jealous of her, he assumed that she was jealous of him. Therefore, if he felt a strong attraction to any other woman, the mother side of him would go wild.

Did I suggest that I wrote my paper about any of those things? No. It was titled 'The definition of being 'agnostic' and its place in modern society'. I would like to think that a 40-point paper was well researched and well put together and deserving of the A* grade it got me.

Still, if you see movies as being the answer to all the deep intellectual puzzles we come across in life, I can't argue. We all look for our own truth.

I'm not saying anything of that.

I was just pointing to a movie reference that, as opposed to much of what's shown in Hollywood films, was not only correct, but explained in a simple and effective way.

I'm not stupid to believe anything that movies say, and in fact I can pinpoint historical innacuracies on lots of 'em (currently now I'm seeing lots of errors on The Aviator, mainly regarding the backstory of the Hercules plane, A.K.A. The Spruce Goose).

But this particular (deleted) scene of Donnie Darko was perfectly fit to explain, in layman terms, the difference between an agnostic and an atheist.

As opposed to the way of travelling thru wormholes is explained in "Event Horizon", for example, that's not only totally innacurate, but completely false. Even so, I see TEACHERS using that lame-ass explanation even on advanced science classes.

and i'm not religious , since I didn't state that earlier.
