How Do You…

Posted by ArmedGeek on Friday, February 26, 2010 in Personal

How do you explain God to someone who doesn’t believe ?

I must admit that I lean towards the agnostic, but atheists bother me more than the devout. If the Christian Bible is correct, then the devout has the advantage over the atheists, but if the Bible is wrong, then both are equal. Heh. Obviously, the devout hold the advantage.

This is why I don’t get the ANTI-God. And I type it that way cause that’s the way the non-believers tend to put it. They try like hell to couch it in “LOGIC”, but logic really dictates that you take no position at all. There simply is no way to know. This is why atheists are nuts and Christians are iffy. Atheists are taking a position based on absolutely nothing. NOTHING. There is no science, no theory, no suggestion that God does not exist. At least Christians are open minded.

I try always to have faith. I really do. The logical brain I was given dictates a need for evidence, but apparently faith is a requirement. Faith without evidence is hard for me. I like to think that there is some reason, some point to life. That we’re not just some accident. Mostly, I hope/pray that there is an afterlife. Death scares the shit out of me. I’m mostly fearless. I don’t scare easy, and I’ve risked my life often when I thought something needed doing. The thought of no longer existing scares the hell out of me and almost nothing scares me.

I have a hard time believing that I’m just some sort of happy accident. It seems odd to me that the very people that scoff at the lottery think that “we” “just happened”.

There’s the “money quote” btw. Atheists, or the “educated” laugh at the state lottery as “a tax for people that are bad at math”, yet think humanity “just happened”. Here’s the kicker …. folks win the lottery. Yep the odds are against any one person from winning, but the odds are just as for someone winning. The Left misses this as well as they miss God.

My understanding is that as long as I accept Jesus as having taken punishment for my sins that I am good/am golden/may as well be Jewish (Jews being the chosen people getting to opt out of the Jesus exception).

I’ve never been much of a church-going type, but I watched Passion of the Christ at the theater on the big screen …. I rate that as disturbing as watching Blackhawk Down at the theater on the big screen (which I did). I think the intent of both films was the same. To allow (as much as is possible) the viewer to witness the events portrayed. But what do you take from that? What are you supposed to take from it?

Where I’ve Been…

Posted by ArmedGeek on Saturday, February 6, 2010 in Geekery, Personal

I’m sure there’s at least one or two of you that’s noticed my absence. I’m sure LC Aggie Sith is one of them. Well, a long long time ago I started a project. I decided to write a video game all by my lonesome. This proved to be quite the task but I felt my programming skills were up to the challenge. Which, for the most part, they are. Unfortunately, I suck at making art for a game (or art in general). And artists would rather starve than work cheap. So I eventually shelved the idea.

I started back up again.

I decided that I’d use whatever art I could scrounge from the internet in an effort to get the game completed. I hope that once the game is done that I may be in a better position to lure artists into cutting me a deal. The downside of such a tactic is that I cannot release the game even after it is finished until I replace all of the art.

So, explanation done …. screenshots after the jump …

No more Marlon Brando

Posted by ArmedGeek on Friday, December 11, 2009 in Personal

To date, I’ve used a picture of Marlon Brando as my gravatar. Well, no more. I decided to use an image of myself as my gravatar. I admit, that my mustache is in a transitional period (growing back after a short trim due to a trimming fuck up), but fuck it.

Any other opinions you can kindly keep to yourself.

Sorry, for the outage. I’d not been paying close enough attention to maintenance tasks.

Comfortable clothes

Posted by ArmedGeek on Thursday, November 19, 2009 in Personal

At risk of giving a little bit of my personal life away …

Anyone who wears BDUs knows that they’re kind of like blue jeans. They’re stiff and scratchy when they’re new but the older they are the more comfortable they become. Sadly, today I had to retire my favorite pair of BDU trousers.

*moment of silence*

I hate breaking in new pants, but damn, they do look sharp when brand new.

New Pipe

Posted by ArmedGeek on Tuesday, November 17, 2009 in Personal, Pipe Smoking

Recently I purchased a new pipe. This is a “premium” pipe from a respected pipe maker.

This is a $75 pipe. Now, the problem is … it’s kinda tough to pack tobacco and light afire a $75 pipe. I’ve not actually smoked this yet. I have not decided what sort of tobacco I want to introduce to this work of fucking art.

White Russian

Posted by ArmedGeek on Monday, November 2, 2009 in Personal

Aside from the Manhattan, the White Russian really is my “default drink”. So when I can’t really decide what to drink, its either going to be a Manhattan or a White Russian. The White Russian has the advantage of being slightly easier to make than the Manhattan but the disadvantage of being really sweet.

Anyhow, that’s what I’m drinking at the moment. Soon, I’ll likely make my first Martini which will likely make Gin the BotW so we can do the Martini, Tom Collins, Gin & Tonic … I’m forgetting something.

The photo is with two lights, one to the left and one behind the camera, no flash. I did about 5 or 6 photos and that was the best of the bunch. Still not really happy with it.

Oh, and this obviously starts another round of “spot the stuff in the background”.
