Been forever since I posted here, but in response to:

Try Behold The Arctopus, Canvas Solaris and Sleep Terror for crazy instrumental metal.

For a more post-rock take on it, try Pelican or Russian Circles.

an eye can evolve from a sigle cell growing into a flat plate, bending into a depth percieving cup, then forming a fully spherical unclosed eye giving focus, then a fringe of transparent cells becomes a fully lensed surface, then it fills with jelly to support its weight out of water, and augments ...

from dictionary.com: (first definition, not second...) Faith = Confident belief in the truth, value, or trustworthiness of a person, idea, or thing. Forgive me, I didn't clarify my meaning there. Faith can mean more than one thing; I'm using it in its most broad sense. You put faith in science, mean...

I think I should point out the obvious here; this entire discussion is about faith. In order to be a Christian you have to believe that the Bible is God's word, Jesus died on the cross for your sins, etc., without having seen proof of said events. Jesus says (in a paraphrase) blessed is he who belie...

Strapping Young Lad- Alien

We have lots and lots of deer...It's not uncommon to be driving home at night and see deer crossing the road in my neighborhood in more than one place. They are everywhere. I also have a big furry rodent thing that has a tunnel from the top of my side yard (I live on a big hill) to the bottom, he di...

What makes us so arrogant as to think that we can say things of such huge scale as the age of the universe with absolute certainty? How can about 400 (starting from around the 1600's) years of research, much of which moved at an extremely slow pace, produce information that completely and without fa...

@ Digitan: That makes good sense to me.

I don't watch anime, just commenting on the exorbitant pricing of both places. I seem to remember Best Buy having a pretty big DVD collection though, but it's pretty much hit and miss with what local branches end up stocking.

FYE and Borders

Ahhhh...price rape...

Far Cry has been sold too...to one of the masters of absolute crap movie making, Uwe Boll.

Both Lewis and Tolkein were Christians; you can tell from their writing, their themes, the other books they wrote. It's interesting to compare the epic tales from Tolkein and Lewis to the aforementioned His Dark Materials series by Phillip Pullman, who isn't Christian. Quite a bit different...

Thumbs up for the outsider...great song with great lyrics.

Don't know too much about Children of Bodom...except Alexi Laiho is an idiot for calling Dream Theater lame in guitar world. From what I've heard of them, the music is good, but the vocals really aren't my taste.

I like the music...lyrics are just a bit too overly political for my taste, not to mention generalized and nonsensical. "Why don't presidents fight the war, why do they always send the poor?" I mean, c'mon, you can do better than that. If you want a better anti-war song from SOAD, listen t...

Every little pill that makes you think makes my mind a social fault I could take a million f***ing freaks blow 'em up and make you pay all the plastic clowns have taken me to the moon that wasn't grey I have gone insane and I'm the one to blame There's no one left but me and I'm not here from Insan...
