actually im trying to remember myself why i directed that at you…..

look at it this way:
would you believe in the easter bunny or santa clause? i mean, seriously believe in them, ready to kill for them?

i take it the answers no? exactly because we know that the easter bunny and santa clause do not exist.

the history on saint nick (not sure if that was his real name), there was once an eastern european carpinter, who lived in a small village, and to mark the birth of christ, he would, every year, create little wooden toys for the children of the village.

eventually he would hire people that wanted to help, and over time the word got around via travellers and caravans,

but, this story got twisted up so much it turned into this santa (spanish for saint) clause (klause) lives in a very cold and snowy factory (what the west later assumed was the north pole. but hey get close to the alps, what do U get?) and makes toys for children around the world (probably distributed by caravans to some parts of places around the world.

the point is, do you see how a simple tail can be blown into something that is completely not true?

from what ive seen from ancient recordings, there was a huge flying objct that was fully iluminated and out steped a creature that looked similar to human, these creatures were our masters till the first human ruler came about, the stories in the bible are twisted versions of what really happened and tricksters playing people for chumps.

how can you respect an opinion that has no facts to back it up? wheres the proof of jesus other than the bible, where are the 2 tablets with the 10 comandments? religion is not only lies, deception and a way to enslave people. it is the primary cause of death on this planet. if it had no effect on every1 else i’d say let the fools waist their life, but, seeing as it causes more deaths than old age, i kinda have extremely large issues with it.

Santa Clause isn't real?

To be clear, I would never believe in a cause enough to kill anyone. The only way I would ever be driven to that point is if my life or the life of an innocent is directly threatened… and even in that siuation, who knows if i would be successful? If the Easter Bunny happened to be my uncle and someone was trying to kill him.. then yes.. i would kill for the Easter Bunny. (haha)

But seriously, I don't need a history lesson on how Santa Clause came to be. I recognize that there isn't an overweight man travelling on a giant sled pulled by flying reindeer, breaking and entering into every household leaving gifts for all the children. That isn't the point. You stated yourself the idea of Santa Clause originated somewhere. With a man, who, in the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ gave toys to the local children. Frankly, I see nothing wrong with this. He had a belief and he used that belief for a good cause. He spread happiness, even if for one day. It isn't the tale of St. Dick, who, every year on the birth date he didn't believe in, punched the local children in the face. Not everyone believes in Christmas and not everyone has to. I don't think Santa is the villain of society. So really, what's your point on the whole Santa Clause thing?

Continuing… anything in history will get “twisted up” … doesn't matter if the twist is good or bad or unintentional. Unless you were there, you don't know. And even if you were there, your recollection of the event may differ from someone else who was also there. Be it because of emotion, memory lapse, trauma or you feel twisting the story makes a better story… etc etc.

“from what ive seen from ancient recordings” – please don't tell me you saw these ancient recordings on Wikipedia. But what have you seen? You said these creatures ruled until the first human ruler. Well what happened that this human ruler domshowed the other creatures? If those creatures came from huge flying objects.. why didn't they fly away after realizing the supremacy of humans? I'm all for theories so long as theories have continuity… and yours doesn't appear to just yet.

“how can you respect an opinion that has no facts to back it up? wheres the proof of jesus other than the bible, where are the 2 tablets with the 10 comandments?”

As mentioned above, where is your proof of facts? Religions is not about fact. You call out the bible specifically, but how much do you really know about what is said within the bible? And what is your take on other religious teachings.. the bible isn't the only book that exists. Or your distaste for the ten commandments? Is the message not more important than the presentation? If you are going to go on and on about how religion is for chumps and is not real then at least present something more coherent for an argument other than the strategy of persistent narrowmindedness .

In fact I can even help you build a foundation for your argument. Watch the film called Zeitgeist. It is broken down into 3 parts, one of which discusses religion. While it does not call out religion as being for ignorant chumps.. it presents an argument that religion is man made by following the continuities and similarities that exist throughout time and varying religions. While again it is just an alternative view, it possesses more merit than your prattlings.

“religion is not only lies, deception and a way to enslave people.”

Good for you. You are not being lied to, deceived or enslaved because you are free from religion right? Live your life, let others live theirs.

“it is the primary cause of death on this planet. if it had no effect on every1 else i’d say let the fools waist their life, but, seeing as it causes more deaths than old age, i kinda have extremely large issues with it.”

Religion will not cause more death than old age. Are you kidding me? Of the 6 billion human inhabitants on this planet, many will grow old. And die. Religious and non-religious people alike. You cannot state that  the majority of Earth's inhabitants will die because of religion and expect to be taken seriously. Also do not pretend your sententiousness is anything but. You act as though what you say on here is to assist the rest of humanity, “if it had no effect…” yeah, right.

Fool: a person who lacks good judgment

The same could be said about you for using the term in the context you used it in, could it not? Maybe if you refrain from making broadsweeping insults about people you do not know (the religious population), your views will be more respected.

And if alll of the above you so choose to discredit that's fine. I'll try a different approach next time.

Uhm its important not to leave out that this “exclusivity” is only in the European region.

It'll be released in the North American region at the same date (June 16) as the 360 & Wii versions.

who you gunna call?! GHOSTBUSTERS!

Finally, after losing majority of our exclusives.. we're gaining one

Time for some pointless rants of my own. The following list is a compilation of the most insignificant annoyances… this is not going to be enlightening or provide any answers to life's many questions. This is also not meant to be taken seriously. Read only if you're very bored. No refunds on time will be issued.

– Slow walking people. I secretly want to punch them in the back of the head. I suppose I just gave up my secret. But honestly, people who are capable of walking quicker than snail pace but choose to mosy about in packs while going up/down stairs or choose to hog the entire sidewalk thus blocking all other pedestrian traffic should start wearing helmets. I say this for their own protection.

– Slow drivers who drive slow for no apparent reason. No thank you, sir, I should not be travelling 20 km in a 60 km zone. There is no one in front of you as far as the eye can see. Please press the pedal down a bit harder or get off the road. I would really like to reach my destination sometime this year, if at all possible.

– People who talk on their cell phones while driving. “Like OMG I totally don't even know how I got into an accident! I was just like, on my phone and like.. that pole ran right into me! Teehee.” Seriously. Your 'very important' call about your ex boyfriend's new girlfriend's oven mitts could have waited.

–  When elderly people get on a bus and no one offers up their seat. You're young and capable. You're sitting at the front. You see a woman who just fell trying to get on bus and yet you still sit there expecting her to hold on to the rails while she's being tossed around like a rag doll. News flash… you'll be old one day too. I hope the younger generation shows you more courtesy when that time comes, even though you don't deserve it. Get off your ass and move to the back.

– The naming conventions of meat. Yes, that's right. How come chicken is the only thing centered out? Chicken burger, chicken nuggets… etc. Yet you can order a hamburger. It's not even HAM! Why not beefburger. Or cowburger? At least then you'd be calling it what it is! I don't know, I'm a vegetarian.. maybe that's why I don't get it.

– McDonald's. Enough said.

– In Canada there is a food brand called “No Name”. Haha. Very clever. You have a name you idiots. You can't be a nameless brand if your name IS, in fact, “No Name.” Also I do not accept the argument that the company “is just being ironic.” No. Do not pass go, do not collect $200. Fail.

– Promiscuity coupled with irresponsibility. Re-evaluate your morals. If you have none, get some.

– People who chew with their mouths open. You're exempt if you have a broken jaw or some other condition prohibiting you from fully closing your mouth. Otherwise, recognize the contents of your mouth are not a masterpiece from Picasso. No one wants to see it.

– Telemarketers. Do not call me. If you do, I'll take 1 of 2 actions pending on my mood. Bad Mood: Hang up on you. Good Mood: severely waste your time seeing as you insist on wasting mine. Examples…

Telemarketer: “Hi Ma'am I'm from blah-blah how are you today?”

Me: “Yes I do like toast!”

T: “I would like to interest you in a product blah-blah”

Me: “Tell you what, I'll buy your product if you buy mine! In fact we have a wide assortment of…” etc

T: “Are you the current homeowner?”

Me: “Define homeowner? I mean… the house was boarded up before I broke into it.. so I guess by default it's my house now!”

I recognize it's you job… but recognize bothering people at home for a living means that your job sucks. Sorry. I don't dislike you, I dislike the establishment you work for.

lol, this is going alittle off topic.

New rant.

Why do people insist on using caps for no reason at all… Do they not know when it is acceptable to use them? Do they know how to TURN IT OFF? If someone were to say something after you’ve said something in caps like ‘LOL POKENNY THAT WAS FUNNY’ would it be considered to be either really funny that he couldn’t contain himself? or that he was simply being sarcastic? In any case was there any need for it?

LOL POKENNY THAT WAS FUNNY!

I LIKE TO USE CAPS FOR EMPHASIS EVEN WHEN I'M EMPHASIZING NOTHING IMPORTANT! I COULD TURN OFF MY CAPS LOCK BUT THAT TAKES TOO MUCH EFFORT. PLUS TYPING IS WAY COOLER LIKE THIS!!!!!

BTW: 1234567!!!

/caps

.. oh and before negativity arises… the above was a joke. I also don't like when people type in all caps. Seriously. Caps Lock key. On a standard QWERTY keyboard it is located on the left hand side right above the “shift” key. use it… tyvm.

Were the team mates intelligent AI or were they human players? I definitely need to take a closer look at this game.. I had no idea there was a set up involving team mates (AI or not). Nice!

As for the movie it looks awesome! I love the Terminator series. Usually what happens imo, when the leading role (in this case Arnold) is removed from a series the sequels lose their focus and die out. This doesnt seem to be the case here, as this movie looks promising!
