| Topic | I think I've found the single most confusing book of the Bible. |
| Sunhawk 07/11/20 2:32:35 PM #7 | CyricZ posted... Well it's an epistle to the people of the region. What about it is distinct from the others? It's largely about whether Christians have to follow various rules from the OT or not. I've read it multiple times, and I still can't tell what Paul (the author) is saying. It should be straight forward. I mean, a simple yes or no would've been fine. But instead, it is completely muddled, and appears to contradict itself repeatedly. Wtf. @DevsBro --- It has been 0 days since something interesting happened. Thrill me, chill me, fulfil me. |

| Sunhawk 07/11/20 2:19:51 PM #1 | Galatians. From the NT. Read it more than once, I honestly can't tell what it's trying to say. Why does the Bible go out of the way to be as confusing, murky, and contradictory as possible? Or am I just stupid? --- It has been 0 days since something interesting happened.

| Topic | I haven't seen any Sean Connery Bond films in at least 5 years. |
| Sunhawk 07/11/20 1:55:28 PM #1 | Tonight, they're showing one of his films on TV. I think it's From Russia With Love. Should I take the plunge? Ironically, I'm a big Bond fan. I have quite a few of the films on DVD. I've seen films by almost every other Bond in maybe the last year. Some Bond films, I've seen 15 or 20 times. I've been watching a fair bit of Dalton recently. Am I missing out, by not having seen the Connery films in ages? Or does it not matter, since I've seen them all before, anyway? Do they outright suck?

Jonah is one of those few parts of the Bible famous enough for an atheist to be aware of. Much be pretty famous, right? --- It has been 0 days since something interesting happened.

| Topic | I can't do it. I wanted to read all of the Old Testament, but some is so boring. |
| Sunhawk 07/10/20 10:18:02 AM #1 | I'm basically okay with the early stuff, because some of that is really interesting, and some of the core beliefs of Christianity are there, e.g. the Ten Commandments, and the end is really interesting, with the various books of prophecy, and certainly books of wisdom, like Proverbs...but the middle is so tedious. Kings 1, Kings 2, Chronicles 1, Chronicles 2, etc. It's just history, hardly any new or well explored ideas at all. And the history isn't even that convincing. All the strange stuff that happens, all the farfetched things. Much of the Old Testament is interesting, helpful, and a good perspective on how Abrahamic religion works, and almost all of the New Testament is interesting, but...I dunno. The middle is so boring. Is it my fault, or is it actually considered dull by many people? Is this just "Sunhawk being Sunhawk"? --- It has been 0 days since something interesting happened. Thrill me, chill me, fulfil me. |

The detailed descriptions of the Fall of Saigon were REALLY interesting, all the crazy shit that happened.

RE5, on the other hand, was a rather straightforward third-person-shooter game, which was somewhat lifeless, and you had an AI partner that kept saying the same things. --- It has been 0 days since something interesting happened.
