My understanding is that the big J wanted followers to spread his teachings but he himself never claimed divinity or lineage from the Lord. That came later.

Okay we're verging close to things that should be talked about in the CDT. But, to sum up: most big churches and most of Christianity doesn't think that.

BUT to skrrt skrrt the discussion somewhere else, you know who really didn't ask for worshippers? The Spaghetti Monster.

Gonna play devil's advocate here - since I have no real interest in discussing Christianity, hence why I avoid the CDT - but this thread is described as a place for "just discussion between players on whatever it is that’s on their minds at the time (so long as it is within the site rules.)"

So if at least two people want to talk about religion, TET is a place that conversation can occur.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
--S. Huntington

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

Good morning, people of NationStates!

Well, that's a little formal and a tad awkward greeting from me! How're you all doing? For me, I wish I caught more sleep, but this will do! Weather's awfully cold, that kind of weather where you just want to snuggle and sleep.

I've really gotta get over this crippling fear of this one slasher move villain. It made sense when I was a dumb 3 year old, but I'm a dumb adult now. He shouldn't still bother me.

Also, I'm not telling you who. Cause I know better. Just that he still scares me. And that I should have got past it 10 years ago.

No specifics. I trusted someone with the specifics once when I was 15. He responded by buying a big picture of him and hanging it in my room when I wasn't home. I slept on the couch for a week.

Heh, I used to have this fear out of one movie... One movie that no one would actually expect to be horror.

Harry Potter.

Yup. There was this one movie, I forgot which one, where they were fighting in the sewer, and after all that was done, Harry used a python's tooth and stab it at a book, causing some guy to slowly die and disintegrate.

It lingered on for days and weeks, until I watched it the second time, and... poof, fear's gone.

Back then, I feared that someone will stab a random book and I'll just slowly die like that... Now I just think that's irrational. :P

I saw Texas Chainsaw Massacre in the 4th grade - the scary one, not the rubbish one since friends who actually like horror movies informed me there's a difference - and I haven't watched any scary movie since then.

I have no one to snuggle cause no one wants to snuggle with me, and I'd feel forry for anyone who'd lower their standards enough to get with me.

The Hell is scary about him? He's a guy in a jumpsuit and a Shatner mask. Good movies, but he never scared me. If he did, I wouldn't play him so much on Dead By Daylight.
