Is it just me, or does that second last photo show a speeder that looks way too much like Zam Wessell's?
Vader is correct, Vaider is incorrect.

I hope you appreciate my treating you like any other adult and ignoring your age in terms of debating. Perhaps with age you will encounter more people which may alter the way you see things but at the moment you see things in a particular way and it is this you I'm talking to not a possible future you or the five year old you.
I do indeed appreciate it. Please note, however, that I do indeed think about what I post, so your example of the video I posted before isn't an example of thoughtlessness. It was merely a different opinion I had, which has since changed more than once. I would appreciate if you kindly refrained from bringing it up because it is no longer relevant to my view, but it was indeed representative (for the most part) of my view at the time.
It was indignation and a passion for justice that brought down apartheid, won universal suffrage and ended slavery (in those places where slavery ended) and this is what a large number of homosexual people feel. Indignation, a passion for justice and equality. You must feel that impulse yourself when you see injustice it's a very natural response. Give a treat to one child and not another and you will hear quite loudly how natural that impulse is.
When you hear people saying they want equality and your scripture seems to say something different and you can't put it down to mistranslation or a lost historical context consider the value of that text. Does it serve the spirit of Christianity to constantly raise passages which ask the reader to do things you would never countenance as modern day person of faith?
If your Levitican laws steer your church away from the good news remove them. For it is better for you that a part of the Bible be lost than the whole of it be tarnished.
I don't think the Levitical laws tarnish the Bible at all, since they are an important part of our salvation history. Though the specific proscriptions are not all valid anymore, the morals presented in them is still considered entirely valid by the Church and myself.
I'd rather not see a Sith at all.
Thanks guys. :)
My parish priest always manages to weave something about the World Cup into his homilies (sermons, for those of you who are unfamiliar with Catholic lingo). :D

I'm rather curious what Bingo thinks of that article. I'd be willing to read that post. (I don't mean this as a wisecrack or as any other kind of insulting manner, I am just curious what Bingo thinks of this)
In short, he doesn't like it, and it's probably better if you don't read his post.
I understand your position, Bingo, but I think you misunderstand mine, at least in part. I don't agree with the entirety of the article, but I do agree with his support of civil unions on a lesser level than marriage. I understand that you find that offensive, but I find a lot of what you say offensive as well.
When I linked to that video of the girl quoting Leviticus, I did indeed agree with just about everything she said (I don't now). I also did expect that she would get a lot of hate for that, but what I was surprised at was the degree of hate. It was way, way, way overboard. It seems obvious to me now that she didn't have all the facts, not that she was a bigot or a hater.
Also keep in mind that I am only fifteen years old, so my opinions, or at least the specifics of them, are likely to change as I mature. I often can't make up my mind on things like this because I am constantly learning new information, and gaining a better understanding of what my Church actually teaches. When I signed up here, I had a completely different view on the subject than I do now. Since then, I have learned a lot more, including the fact that many of the things I had grown up believing were false. I currently have a fairly conservative view of the whole thing, but I no longer condemn anyone for being openly gay and marrying someone of the same sex, because I realize how it affects people when my religion is forced on them. I have no concrete opinion on whether same sex parents should be allowed to adopt or not. It seems to affect the way those kids behave, both in positive and negative ways. The negative ways could very well be caused by self-righteous people bullying them, but it's difficult to say for sure.
Hopefully we can learn to understand each other better, even if we don't agree. I have nothing against two guys or two girls who love each other pursuing a romantic relationship, but I don't support it and probably never will.

How are you guys going to Anakin's wife?
Shame on you, WS! Don't you think that kind of thing could push him over to the Dark Side? I'll find my own wife (once I'm old enough), and not take someone else's.
It makes me angry when people gang up on men like this because they (the homosexual men, that is) have decided against a homosexual relationship. Many of the same people who shout out the gospel of tolerance from the rooftops can't seem to be able to tolerate people who make the choice not to embrace an actively homosexual lifestyle, as if every person's life ought to revolve around sex and sensual pleasure.
And I shall never remember to forget. What a dilemma. I can't even remember what I wanted to forget anymore, so I can't forget it! It's so frustrating.
I'm joking, Warb, but it is better if you just add to your post/use strike-throughs rather than just deleting the offending bits.
Revisionist!! Re-writer of history!! George Lucas!!!

Is Warb straight curious?
The very thought!

Oh sayeth thee, doest thou? Umbridge hast been taken petulant sir, and it weigheth heavy upon my brow. We shall speaketh on this later young one, and ye will learn thine place.
But with dismay I must proclaimeth I have discovered another fatal ending among entertainment's gloomy roster that mighteth spoil thine viewing pleasures shouldst thou enter unadvised. In ye olde slasher romp "Harper's Island", much unseen by those who failed to watcheth, poor Malcolm finds himself beaten, burned, beheaded and incinerated by episode the seventh's climax. An ignoble end for a gentle soul whose only wish was to brew his own brand of mead.
Thou shouldst not be using "thine" prior to a word that beginneth with a consonant, but rather "thy". Nor shouldst thou end an adjective with "-eth", but only a verb suffixed by "s" in the modern usage of the language.
Now cometh darth_ender to further correct my grammar.

Wait, he didn't "nope" tetracurious, so that must be what he is.
when did someone ask me if I were tetracurious? in any case, I'm not.
Ah, yes, I forgot you had Bingowings on ignore. If you aren't any of the above-mentioned curioi (is that the plural of curious? It must be), then you are surely sexocurious (not what you think it is, Frink), heptocurious, nonocurious, or decacurious.
Well, it would be sexist to use violence on men and not women.

Warbler said:
nope.
Hexacurious?
Septacurious?
Octocurious!?
Or did we use the wrong prefix for one of the numbers? Are you, perhaps, dicurious, quadricurious, or quinticurious?
Me twoeth.
Not pentacurious!?!?
If any of that "Jedi Hunter" stuff is true, my interest in the new films will plummet. I don't want to even hear the word Sith in the ST, never mind have a resurrected one (not that I have anything against Sith, but the EU is too full of them as it is).

But oh dear lord in heaven I writeth my next with no jest, as I remind ye of the sad death of poor Rush Clovis the young and chiseled. Fallen and splattered from heights lofty in episode the seventh of The Warring Clones Tales final whimper this very year.
Sadeth for fickle Padme at least, who else among us mourns for dull bags of tools such as these?
Hmm...OWK/AWK... ;)

Please share your ideas here as well. I'm curious to see what people can come up with. There are naysayers who disagree that the movies could be any good without spoilers for the OT, but I think that if the PT was done vastly differently than it was, it could have been pulled off.
