    The Most Powerful Force in The FFVII Universe

    Hmm... I'm not so sure. During the majority of the game, Cloud is still partially under the influence of Jenova (And he freaks out several times because of it). I mean, one of the only lines she has in the game is: "Because you see... you are just a puppet." Perhaps Cloud's relationships saved...

    The Most Powerful Force in The FFVII Universe

    Actually, have you ever read the "Jenova Thesis"? Jenova controls Sephiroth, not the other way around. Jenova is an extraterrestrial that is way more powerful than Sephiroth. Jenova has been to other planets before & has completely annihilated them. I certainly wouldn't want to screw with her.

    Top Ten Superheroes

    Agreed. Though I do find him an interesting character study. He isn't human, so it should be completely & totally impossible to relate to him in any way, shape, or form & yet, somehow, you sort of can. It's a good delve into "humanity". But alas, he's too much of a "boy scout" for me. Captain...

    Do animals have souls?

    I don't believe in the idea of a "soul", so my answer to the question is "no". A "soul" is an immortal, unchanging persona that survives after death; it's as if it is separate from you entirely. I can't see this as true. Where is this soul? Submit everything in nature to disection & you will...

    Do you believe in God?

    Now I can agree with you partially on this account. There really is quite a bit of ambiguity found within the Bible, although this may be due to the fact that it had several different authors. However, I can see the account of the life of Jesus to be a very good guide. (Or in the very least a...

    What happens to Baby when they die

    But technically, they have. Original Sin indicates that everyone is damned until saved. Personally, I find it a bit odd. But hey - I'm a Buddhist; what do I know? :P

    Big Bang Theory

    I've always found the Multiverse theory to be pretty interesting myself; however, I think I remember reading an article where scientists had found a rippled energy wave that showed that the universe was flat. I wish I had bookmarked it. (>_<) I'll have to try & find it, it was really...

    Big Bang Theory

    I didn't ask how you could conceive endlessness, I asked why endlessness is impossible. I think we're miscommunicating. All things are temporal & impermanent; however, the fact that all things are temporal & impermanent is infinite & endless. ;) It's a matter of perception: when this universe...

    Big Bang Theory

    Why does there have to be a beginning? If you truly felt this way, why make the effort to respond at all? (Not mocking; I'm simply curious.) If I remember correctly though, once it stops expanding, the actual "crunch" will last as long as the expansion. So none of us will have to worry about it. :P

    Sedna?

    It was actually November 14th, 2003. :P Of course, but if it takes 12,000 Earth years for 1 Sedna year (wikipedia), you'll be dead long before you have to find out. :P Though, apparently Sedna's rotational period is only 10 hours. My sleep patterns would be seriously screwed up. :( This is...

    Big Bang Theory

    There was no creation to prompt a creator to create. :P Existence exists & always has in some form or another.

    Our Design

    No, I do not believe in Intelligent Design. I've stated my reasonings before in the "Do You Believe in God" thread, so I won't bore you guys with re-iteration. Simply put: I see no necessity for Intelligent Design. I concern myself with how I exist not why I exist. Knowing the why will not...

    Alien Life and Space exploration

    I definitely think there's other intelligent life out there. The only problem is that time is relative, especially when you get towards the speed of light. I mean, some of the supernovae we see here on Earth actually happened millions of years ago. Even if we could contact them (or vice versa)...

    Kadaj is love

    Yeah, I'm a total Kadaj fan-boy & I'm not even ashamed. :P Interestingly enough: isn't it fitting that cruelty be embodied by a child? Think about it. Children are ridiculously cruel to each other.

    Hawtest guy in Advent Children?

    It's totally Kadaj. Nothing like an emotionally unstable guy. That & pretty hair makes me weak in the knees. :P

    The Cutting of the hair. (Spoilers)

    It's psychological. When you're confronted with several issues all at once, we can all tend to be overwhelmed; the problems seem bigger than us. Because we are unable to process these things psychologically, it manifests physically. I suppose we figure if we can't change things inwardly, then...

    U2

    Let me put it this way: I like old U2. I can't stand a lot of their new stuff. I don't know why; it just doesn't do a thing for me.

    The Beatles

    Hmm... Warbourne? Making a thread about the Beatles? Never. "Not no way. Not no how." :P The Beatles are pretty great, honestly. It's definitely one of my favorite bands to lay back too. They're also great to listen to while driving. Seriously, I think it cures road-rage. You can't be mad & be...

    Tattoos

    I don't approve or disapprove. If you like them & want one, go for it. If you don't care much for them, that's cool too. It such an old form of art that I find it very, very interesting. I'm not much for pain, so I'm not sure if I'd ever get one. I've seen quite a few though that I've thought...

    Are humans good, bad or evil?

    Thus why you can have only faith. Jesus was a man & he was perfect. Please cite any texts in which Jesus specifically refers to himself as God Himself.
