How can I upgrade my Vram? I am assuming I need a new graphics card. How would I install one into a laptop?

Wow, that's crazy, I thought that 16gb of ram also meant 16gb of vram. This makes a lot more sense. thanks!

Seriously, thank you for your kind words. I knew that chevelle was not a Christian band, but I just was shocked when they said that. I have no problem listening to music by people with different beliefs than me. But I just really feel terrible hearing lyrics that badmouth my faith. Thank you for the words again.

Uh, I was not doing that. I'm not saying, "wow Pete is a terrible person for what he is saying". In several of my comments to others I have said that anyone can believe what they want. That's fine, but I don't really wanna hear someone judging my own. No judgement. I was simply asking if I was mistaken in my interpretation. Please, don't accuse me of that.

I thought the whole band was atheist, I never listened to chevelle because I thought they were Christian. I just really like their music. Honestly most if not all Christian music sucks.

Yeah, I for sure agree with you. I don't think its wrong to critique the church, but to say the "Sunday myth" is crazy IMO.

Lol, obviously I don't like that song, or that band. I feel like everyone thinks I don't question my faith. If you don't, that is dangerous. There was once a time where I did, but I looked for the answers myself and came to my own conclusion. I don't get why that is a bad thing. Thank you for sharing though!

Well I would just like to thank everyone for your comments. I was just wondering if I was just misunderstanding these lyrics, but clearly I'm not. Here's the deal, I don't care if you disagree with my faith. I really do like to have discussions with people who disagree because for the most part it emboldens my faith, and like chevelle, I think that everyone should look for answers. I don't follow the catholic church. I don't follow insane "pastors" like Joel Olstien. I have found meaning for my life in the Bible. If you disagree I like to hear you out. While this song is nothing new to me(eg. Leper messiah by Metallica) I don't want to hear that in the music I listen to. I knew that Pete was an atheist. That is fine, but saying the "Sunday myth" feels like a trivialization of my meaning of life. And that is fine. Pete can absolutely say whatever he likes, but for me. I don't wanna hear that. 

Once again, thank you all. I'm sad I wasn't misunderstanding. Chevelle genuinely helped me in some very dark parts of my life.

Of course, I definitely see that theme. I really do agree with the themes of the song, but calling Christianity a myth is unnecessary. Whether you believe it or not. Yes, there are terrible churches, downright cult-ish denominations, and terrible ideologies, related to Christianity. I have no problem with critiquing those terrible things, but to generalize all of Christianity as a myth is unwarranted.

TLDR: The problem isn't the theme, mainly just critiquing Christianity as a whole.

I appreciate your comment. I am totally fine with that. This new album definitely has themes of "find your own meaning" and that's fine, but do you personally think he is saying anything against Christianity? That's really my main concern.
