This is not true.

There are. Like the time I healed a hunter 'tank' who's pet had died, a rogue, and myself (the warlock and her pet had died) threw http://www.wowwiki.com/The_Prophet_Tharon'ja until 10%, where the hunter died, and the paladin tank who popped in via the random dungeon system just barely got there in time to taunt the bitch off of the rogue and save our asses Smile I really want to do that again... that put a bit more 'epic' back into Warcraft Smile

Quote:Then are there not things that you wish you could do over and you get the chance to.
Actually, I don't have any clue what you mean here Smile Too ambiguous in the language, you were Smile Perhaps you would rephrase?

Quote:On your second attempt do you not feel more satisfied of the end result?

Sometimes... but not always Smile I certainly would feel prouder if I was satisfied... but if I were not then I might feel a little dejected Smile

Humans don't have to be more special than anything else... but do you see any other creatures on earth with advanced science? Smile I'd call that pretty special FSM Wink

are you saying that God's windpipe and esophagus run different tubes? are you saying that God doesn't starve or take a shit? I can't believe people describe something so poorly understood, something that's only vaguely described, a god, as 'perfect'. How could you expect anything after death when all you know is our dependency on matter?

Why would 'God' have a windpipe or esophagus? Silly flying skeptic

Starving would necessitate a need for nutrients. Why would 'God' not be self sufficient?

Shitting assumes that there is waste within 'God'... why would there be waste in 'God'?

That we don't know what is "perfect" and thus argue against a 'God' being so is an argument from ignorance. Smile

Quote:I guess you could say that my questions were somewhat of a metaphor on how we don't know what is perfect and how all of our understanding on matter that we shouldn't be so keen on believing in an afterlife that abandons matter. Someone said that if God made us with different tubes for the windpipe and esophagus etc. then their god would essentially be creating 'himself', perfect.

That's a possibility... though I don't see how having separated ones would make us perfect :S

It's a matter of an individual's faith... though I don't believe there is such a thing as an afterlife, I can still wear an apologist hat if I see reason to Tongue
notice the 'etc.' ? i was not solely referring to tubing problems. you sound like a liberal theist saying 'it's a matter of an individuals faith' . but... i supppoose, my stream of consciousness on dualism and an omnipotent deity is confusing.

I try Tongue

Ahh, i see the 'etc' now (didn't see it before).

Very well, I rescind "That's a possibility... though I don't see how having separated ones would make us perfect" under the new idea. Smile I don't honestly see why perfection is a word that can apply only to gods, but maybe that's just me Smile

But I'm not 'god.' And never claimed to be.
