[QUOTE="elblanquito_81"]I just wonder: who really looks down at their bills or coins and says, "This offends me." if the words In God We Trust are there or not. It's really quite pointless if you ask me. Aren't there bigger issues in this world to worry about?elblanquito_81

You have a point here, but then again why do black people get offended for not being called african american? why do Jewish poeple get offended when you wish them a Merry Christmas if you are not aware that they are Jewish? If someome is Christian then they should not be forced to wish a Happy Holiday like so many companies try to do. If I get wished a Happy Hannuka then I'll wish one back, problem solved.

Yes there is bigger things to worry about, like the economical downfall of America, crime rate, the fact we are still fighting a war that should have been done years ago. But that all brings us back to my assumption of why it is the way it is... As far as the war goes it could have been over a long time ago if it were'nt for the fact America is afraid of offending people that would call "our way to finish the war" Inhumane.

Ok, so Rick and Bubba (Radio Station DJs) was talking about the fact that In God We Trust is not on the new 5 dollar bill. Now a lot of you out there probably could care less, and some might even be happy about it. But that fact of the matter is, is this country's foundation was built upon Christianity. It was bad enough that the Government had to seperate the church and the state, but now it seems they want to take God out of everything, and it seems they have started with the money. What will be next? The pledge of alliegance? People can say what they want, but this Nation is falling apart. Crime continues to increase, shootings at schools, malls, kids shooting their parents. You've got vandalism, rape, robbery, and it seems to all be rapidly growing. And, to think, people want to blame this on what? Video Games? Movies? Ha! I have to laugh, its so sad, its not a game that drives people to the state they are in, its first bad parenting, and then the fact that Religion is not taught in schools, kids dont get taught morals like way back when. They are continually bomb-barded by the filth that is filling America, everything from foul language to violence to pornography. Now dont get me wrong, I'm not what you would call a Bible Thumper, I play my violent games and watch movies with sex and foul language, but the difference is, I was raised in a house with a strong foundation of what is right and what is wrong. Nor, am I saying, that I think we should shove Religion down everyones throat, but I do believe that if they still taught the fundementals of religion in schools and still practice prayer and the such in the government then this Nation would not be plagued with the ongoing sins of this world. I mean look at how bad our finicial situation is, gas prices is sky high, the economy is falling, and for some reason we still have soldier nearly 7 years after 9/11 still overseas dying for what? We say we are fighting for a free country, but I disagree, nothing is free in this country, we dont have the freedom of speech for fear of offending someone, so many people are for gun control, Hillary and Barrak both. We dont have the freedoms that this Nation once stood for and if it continues on the religious downfall that it is falling than this country will become no better than Germany during the reign of Hitler.

This is not a thread for religious bashing, so please keep the commits adult like. As you can see, no where have I bashed, any religion or non-religion, so please do not bash others.

[QUOTE="Blackbond"]People need to stop whining and just go out and buy a bigger HDD. What did you think the console was gonna be future proof or something?AmyMizuno

Isn't that the point of buying a console? You should not have to spend another $100.00+ dollars for a new HDD because you ran out of space. You spend x amount of dollars on the console and it should last you 5+ years without having to (upgrade it) if we wanted to do that we would all be PC gamers.

I cant sit and play one game till I beat it though. I usually have at least 5 or so games going at one time. So for me its a problem, but then again, I really dont have anything to complain about because all I use that big black brick for is watching movies anyways. At least till FFXIII comes out.

[QUOTE="leilamayhem"]A positive attitude, fresh clothes, a hairstyle that suits him and some self-grooming goes a long way. There's this other little thing that women love, and it's called respect. Speaking as a woman, we don't appreciate when a lazy, hairy, unattractive male expects not only that we're perfect but that he fall head over heels for him by virtue of the fact that he has a penis What's wrong with a job, platonic friendships with women, some ambition etc.? It's funny, because guys who are respectful, confident and successful in their own right don't seem to have problems meeting women. There are simple solutions - because chubby, balding guys have girlfriends too, but usually not if they have a bad attitude and treat women poorly.Viedric

That's funny cuz I'm respectful, nice, well groomed, all that and I've had two girl friends leave me for abusive bums.... Girls don't want nice guys until they've already been knocked up and used up. Then when their tired of the bad boys, they come and expect the nice guys to take care of them and their baby.

Edit: To clarify, I am now dating a chick who was into bad guys and then got pregnant, realized the error of her ways, and left him for a nice guy, me...

What's worse is the girls that get out of a relationship with a jerk and decide to give a nice guy a chance. Then they dump you and go right back to those jerks. /sigh I'll never understand

Ok lets try this again, this time we will name our most favorite game/games ever :p now I have something to talk about

1. Final Fantasy VII
