Don't worry about it, hon. I think people are still edgy after the last few weeks. I do understand what LadyZ is saying though. Sometimes I feel like not expressing my beliefs because it seems to be open season on religion. That effect has built up a bit this last month with the large number of posts and serious discussions being made, and some of us may really be more sensitive than we usually are. I think it will pass! The members of IW are almost always thoughtful and caring, no matter what their religious/philisophical beliefs so I doubt anything bad was intended.

I can see where it was a serious good vs. evil post and maybe some folks who don't believe in the premise just find it easier to joke! At any rate, don't worry, I think people are either answering you in the tone you asked the question or just joshing around because the topic doesn't really effect them due to their belief systems. I don't think anyone meant to offend anyone else, least of all you!

That's not selfish. And I am very sorry to hear about your sister. I really hope it is cureable and she gets well fast. I'm sure all the people who pray will pray for her if you post a thread about it. I'll contribute some positive thinking sent her way.

To be the only mage, you'd have to kill all the other mages off! Lots of real life white magic mages about, (probably lots of the other sort too, but I wouldn't know about that...)

Oh, and on the gender issue, it's completly impossible that God if it exsist, could be female... Because no woman would or could screw something she creates up like that.

Two points here - a. screwed what up? Nothing wrong with the universe as far as I can see...... As I look around me, all the crap I see happening is as a result of people 'screwing things up' - in other words, of people living their lives, making mistakes, and, sometimes, learning to do better. If giving humankind free will was 'screwing things up', then yes, 'god' screwed up. So, lets all kill ourselves right now, as soon as we've programmed the robots to replace us, that will do only good. (Difficult. One programmers good might be another programmers heinous evil....http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif )

b. I do kind of take issue issue with your point about women not being able to screw up their creations. Is that so? What about all the unhappy and abused (by their mothers) children in the world, then? Have you ever ready a book called 'A child called it'?

I'd get premonition and super-powers

Then I would help EVERYBODY in the world so he COULDN'T get their souls

A fair price I think

But then you'd get very resentful eventually that you didn't have YOUR soul, and you were the only person in the world that didn't. Even the nicest person would turn bitter and twisted..... http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

I would kill myself before I got THAT twisted - nobody else would get hurt from it
