It's not, actually.
It's James. Some people call me Carlton, though this is somewhat of a professional name.
I like long walks from places I am to places I like to be, though not as much as short walks of the same variety.
I'm into cars and then (eventually) I get out of them.
I play hacky...
It occurred to me that one reason to seek out god is to find purpose. A reason for my existence or our existence or the existence of life in general. I personally find it difficult to give a crap about anything without knowing why I should. Life seems engineered specifically to try and make me...
Weird Al dropped a new album recently. Here is a track particularly relevant to our chosen medium. :)
Check out the rest of his album as well, he's got some real gems in there. :D

First my disclaimer: I am no physicist or scientist of any kind, nor have I had any instruction in these matters by any institute of higher learning. Thus, my grasp of these concepts is going to be dubious at best.
From what I understand gravity warps space itself, especially around...
I had a thought about this just now and I wanted to see what people thought about my thought.
I was thinking about the idea that every choice we make spawns a new reality. It would seem like there would be so many realities it would be absurd, but then I got to thinking about the speed of...
I play lots. The one I'm hooked on at the moment is called Elona Shooter. It's very basic as most Flash games are, enemies just run from the left side of the screen and try to get to your castle to beat it up, and you have a cross-hair and try to shoot them.
The cool thing is that there are...
Has anyone been watching this? I picked it up a couple of weeks ago. I'm not very impressed with the acting but I like the production overall. The plot seems a bit far-fetched, but not being a student of viking history, its hard for me to say how accurate it might be. I know the History Channel...
So, I've been meaning to post this pretty much since I signed up for the forum but I am shy when it comes to speaking openly about my core beliefs. To allow scrutiny of a belief is to make that belief vulnerable to destruction. In a vast majority of cases I welcome this, as it is a goal of mine...
Aloha and shalom!
I know there are a lot of sharp cookies kicking around this forum so I thought at least one or two of you might know some Latin and be able to help me out.
I am an avid collector of Space Marine miniatures which are part of a nerdy little game I play called Warhammer 40,000...
(This is a game I thought of to test my ability to twist what people say. Knowing that going in should give you all some what of an advantage I think. So go easy on me or something haha!)
You have just stumbled upon a mysterious container containing a mysterious being! When the being pops out...
This movie was entertaining on the carnage level, if you are into that sort of thing. Very reminiscent of 300 with the excessive CGI and slow motion blood fountains.
The story is pretty far outside Greek mythology as far as I can tell. It isn't greatly written and the dialogue does nothing...
I'm sure nobody cares much about what I think, but in case anyone does this is a good place to ask. I think that's what this section of the forum is for anyway...
I'll even try to be honest every time I answer! Isn't that magnanimous of me? I thought so, too!
I'll start so that this one...
So I was thinking about this in the shower this morning. I'm not exactly sure how to articulate what I'm saying, so I'll just go ahead and say what I thought and hopefully discussion will make it into something.
First, I want to be clear that I equate 'might' in this old phrase as 'power' in...
I had a thought that we often approach god from the top down (at least I often do), and attempt to explain how it could have created the universe, for example.
So, I thought about coming from the other direction. What is the least amount of power (read as: control of the universe) that a...
I have mentioned in a few posts that I don't believe in ominpotence for a number of reasons. I thought I might make a thread to list these reasons and get everyone's feedback. Thus, I learn and grow!
First, the purely selfish reason:
Omnipotence, by definition, must be unique. If there is...
