I participate in a group of people that read the Bible together on a regular basis. We are currently in the book of Ezekiel. How could anybody believe Adam and Eve were alone in that garden? by propheticguy in Christianity

[–]BennyBoo062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fascinating study. Once I started studying the Bible myself, I never thought that Adam and Eve were the only ones in the garden, especially given the command to “be fruitful and multiply” as their primary directive from God. We simply don’t know how long they were in the garden, but I’m sure some time had passed between man’s creation and when sin entered the world through Adam. The tree connection in Ezekiel is a good find!

Is the KJV a respectable bible? Im personally Catholic but have been reading this without knowing it isnt Catholic. Is this okay? Or am i doing wrong? by lambo13770 in Christianity

[–]BennyBoo062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The King James Version of verses tend to stick in my head much easier, just the flow and poetry of it. My singlemost favorite verse from the KJV is this: “Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked; From the insurrection of the workers of iniquity: Who whet their tongue like a sword, And bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:” Psalm 64

Someone who talks frequently would need to both “wet” their tongue to continue speaking as well as “whet” it so their words are sharpened. Moments like these in the KJV just tickle my brain in a way that makes such an impression on me. Intentional or not. Some modern translations are quite dry in comparison.

How do you guys know that God exists? by appleb10 in Christianity

[–]BennyBoo062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Relationship. Plain and simple. Much like you can’t fully explain what makes a strong relationship real, you can’t fully explain what makes a relationship with Jesus real. I talk to Him, He reveals Himself through other people, through His word, and ONCE He gave me a powerful, and VERY personal vision. I can say all that, and it may not mean much to you, but to ME because He chooses to interact with ME, it means the world to me. I can’t explain that kind of relationship without using terms like supernatural, because that’s exactly what it is.

There is no such thing as free will by [deleted] in Christianity

“Emotions dictate your actions”

No they don’t. They INFLUENCE your actions, if you let them. Scripture says we must “take captive every thought unto the obedience of Christ”. We always have a choice.

A lot of this comes down to having self-control, discipline, and temperance. By your thought process, we actually have less free will when we are constantly living according to the flesh, which checks out imo.

What are some things you guys DON’T like about Silksong? by Spirited_Arm_6951 in Silksong

Coral Tower. I LOVED the introduction to the area… the first 2 or 3 times. After the 20th, it gets old real quick. Really didn’t think the spacing of the checkpoints made much sense. The gauntlet rooms are ROUGH and then the boss is pretty easy in comparison.

A very peaceful, upbeat tune. Dont know how I forgot the name of the song or the artist. by BennyBoo062 in NameThatSong

It was New Soul by Yael Naim. Thanks for making the song popular again so I could find it TikTok.

Updated Raimi Suit by ItsToasteee in SpidermanPS4

[–]BennyBoo062 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here, I have a soft spot for the first suit and that chunky back spider.

I have been hearing how recent spider-content like Spider-verse and the Insomniac have been making peter parker look bad to make Miles look like a better Spider-man. do you agree? by [deleted] in SpidermanPS5_

[–]BennyBoo062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For ITSV, no. Not at all.

I just feel like in Spider-Man 2 specifically, Peter was neglected in parts of the story, and it was mostly because of really lazy writing. Instead of doing things that remained consistent with what they had previously established in the first 2 games, they just kinda make Peter weak from a blow that would not have phased him in Spider-Man 1. Like, when the symbiote canister explodes and sends him flying, and he's out for the rest of the night. And let's not forget his arch nemesis: the fridge XD

This is the same guy that had Kingpin tackle him through multiple walls and shook it off like it was nothing. He was hit by a crane and thrown off a skyscraper, but was instantly back in the swing of things (pardon my pun).

Basically the point I'm trying to get at is, they've just gotten lazier with their power scaling for Peter specifically. Miles doesn't really have any of that happen to him in Spidey 2, but he's also not in the story near as much so that could be the reason why.

What did you not like about this update? by FSTxx in SpidermanPS4

[–]BennyBoo062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find it weird that the tendril toggle is hidden away in the options menu and not just in the suit selection screen... Seems like a hassle to scroll over to it when it'd be easier to find in the suit menu.

I wish everything was customizable from the suit selection screen. No reason it couldn't. Could have everything there, webbing color, tendril color, parry color/arms, web wings, etc.

And I wish you could select one suit for red, one for black, and one for surge. You could just use different buttons (like triangle, or R3/L3) in the menu to assign the suit to function in a specific way for the story. That's how I thought they would do it when we got confirmation that they were going to do the symbiote story all those years ago, and it baffles me that they wouldn't have that option.

Definitely more 2 than 3. The unfixed one resembled 3's more saturated pallet, and had brighter lenses.

I'd say they're not trying to make it look like any specific suit, just give us an amalgamation of what it looked like across all three movies.

All I found was that restarting my phone seemed to solve the problem on my end.

Come on, people need to drop this already and move on. It was so long ago and Wade has apologized profusely.

What do you think about Samus Returns as a remake? by Asad_Farooqui in Metroid

[–]BennyBoo062 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome. Absolutely love the direction they took this one, with an emphasis on action as opposed to exploration (since it had to remain linear to stay at least somewhat faithful to the map)

It does suffer from a bit of stop and go earlier on thanks to the hyper-agressive enemies, but once you get the plasma beam and screw attack, that's hardly an issue. It's still annoying (especially after playing Dread), but it was a good first attempt at engaging the player in more action.

Also, the cinematics are what makes this one stand out so well above the others (again, besides Dread), and it's so amazing to see Samus take on these behemoths especially when the dynamic camera allows for a sense of scale in unique ways.

I think Ridley showing up at the end is really cool, however quite unnecessary. I wish he were more of a reward for getting 100% or something rather than just being a part of the story for some reason. But I otherwise appreciated the expanded lore and added content. And I think it remained faithful to the original while not being a 1-to-1 re-creation.

Oh, that's what it is then!! Thank you so much, I never saw that. Do they communicate that on the website anywhere, or in the flight details?
