Well I'm new to the forum so I am kind of a newbie not a n00b though, filthy little creatures that they are with their leet speak...
The great religion debate, always an interesting topic of discussion eh...
Broken/Crazyarms I dont need to calm down, I wasnt riled up- sorry if it came across that way dude. Sometimes topics of this nature get a little heated you know? I just cant understand why people cant see where I am coming from. When it comes to interpretation and belief there are many different versions of what people consider the truth. Belief in something is what makes you certain it is the truth. If I believe something different and I consider it the truth and somebody else believes something different that they consider the truth, then which is the actual truth? Nobody can really say until they reach the afterlife. In the Catholic religion I think that they believe you go to purgatory to atone for past sins before you go to heaven- in my Church we are not taught that. We are taught different, so which is actually the truth? Nobody will really know that for sure until they pass on but yet the Catholic church believes this is the truth and my church believes otherwise. It doesnt make either of the churchs wrong or right- but peoples faith in that certain interpretation of the Bible gives them trust enough to believe uneviqically in that interpretation.
There is just something about the way that Kato portrays his faith and goes about telling others of it which I find slightly annoying. He is welcome to believe what he wants but there are a lot of things which he has said that can be taken out of context and I am sure I have done that once or twice. His portrayal of his religion comes across to me as very fire and brimstone- if you dont believe your damned for eternity. I already stated that I have a belief in a God and am thankful for what he has given me but yet over a discussion via private message with Kato he may as well have called me nothing more than an instrument of Satan- which was not appreciated at all. Using sentences like:
"he gave us free choice and you'll have to live with the conciequence."
Makes it seem like if you dont believe his version of the truth that what you believe is wrong- that is my interpretation of being told that Ill have to live with the consequences after I have already stated I believe in God. Oh yes-
"Satan is surly using you against me. Weither you beleive it or not."
That was Kato basically accusing me of being a tool of Satan because I was trying to make him understand where I was coming from. He also accused me of being a hypocrite even though I have not gone back or changed my stance on this subject. Not a set of comments which I appreciate but which I tolerate because if this is what Kato wants to believe then thats good for him. He can believe his interpretation and in the end it all does boil down to a belief in an interpretation of something- this even applies to me.
Anyway as I said last night to Kato- I came to this forum to discuss Fable- not to have a religious debate.
