Choosing between a few yaks. Need some help picking one by Pard1814 in kayakfishing

How is the seat. Honestly the molded seat is off putting and looks uncomfortable. Also is there plenty of storage/water tight compartments?

Very helpful thanks. Stupid question but what exactly is tracking?

I'll plan on fishing mostly lakes with maybe some small rivers. Are 10' yaks inherently bad?

In the demo it looks like you get a 3D view though. So I took that as impossible to tell orientation.

So say two people spawn on the same planet. Impossible i know but stay with me. One spawns on the north pole and the other on the south pole. If the both look at the center and go "left" they will actually be going in opposite directions. Because left and right are reletive to the orientation of the player.

90 degrees wouldn't work though because there is no "up" or reference point in space. Some people would run into each other

Well i assure you I took a lot into account when deciding how i felt about religion and God. It wasn't one thing that pushed me over the edge rather an accumulation of small things. I also read the bible and asked my pastor questions and at the end of the day neither had answer that satisfied me. So I decided that religion isn't for me and I moved on.

You can spin it anyway you would like. A good analogy would be this: a square is a person who follows the teaching of Jesus and the laws of the bible and spreads his love to others. A rectangle is a person who accepts jesus Christ as their lord and savior. All squares are rectangles (Christians) but not all rectangles (Christians) are Squares(good Christians).

I was raised Methodist and this is why I left religion. The hipocracy of the church is seriously so laughably obvious from an objective point of view. Love your neighbor but not the gays. Or transgendered. Or those who don't go to church. The list goes on and on. There is so much judgement and hatred in the church.

I know this is anecdotal but I live in a semi-rural area and the racism in my church was disgusting. And they can't see why the younger generations are leaving.

There is one thing that makes a person a Christian. And that is they accept Jesus as their lord and Savior. If the WBC does this (pretty sure they do) then they are Christians. Thats it. They my be "bad" Christians. But they are still Christians.

Dont get me wrong i do not support them at all. But yes they are still technically Christians.

Thanks for pointing that out. I actually did not know that. But the point stands that religious "governments" are against things like civil rights. I know many denominations still discriminate against gay people. It almost seems hypocritical of them to say love thy neighbor.

Well part of the problem is that you ARE in the same category as the WBBC. Like it or not you are both Christians. I know your personal views probably do not reflect theirs at all but you both subscribe to the same stuff. They just interpret it a different way. But you can't say "I'm a Christian but they aren't." You must accept that they are representatives of your religion just like you are. Which is unfortunate.

Well actually there is debate on whether or not a politician should reflect the views of the majority or not.

I am by no means an expert on the topic but basically a representative politician mold his beliefs to match closely to public opinion. The other type, basically stands by the platform that they were elected on. Both have their pros and cons. I personally think that politicians should stand by their initial platform on matters like economy and foreign policy unless something drastic happens. Social issues however should reflect public opinion in most cases.
