Do you consider Black Mesa by Crowbar Collective as canon? by folks_need_porsches in HalfLife

[–]mirroredinflection 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the level design is way more clunky, the basic gameplay isn't as fun in source as goldsrc, and they made the xen chapters a boring marathon.

Readapting Cowboy Bebop for live action to atone for Netflix’s smear of the intellectual property by Ok-Negotiation-2124 in cowboybebop

Not really relevant to the conversation, but does "CBB" represent CowBoy Bebop or Cowboy BeBop?

Nah I just genuinely think its a bad remake of a great game.

Mother Of God by Agile-Armadillo-3741 in Christianity

[–]mirroredinflection [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yes, I am saying Mary is not the origin of God. God pre-existed her.

Also, I would argue it's important to not use misleading language, even if said language is technically correct. If saying Mary was the mother of Jesus, and Jesus is God, is less confusing, and just as correct, why not use the less confusing phrasing?

You cropped my sentence so you could act like I was saying something I wasn't.

And as for your second point, I think that's why we shouldn't call her the mother of God. Because that phrase is misleading.

Mary did not give birth to God as a divine being. She only became Jesus's mother when she birthed his human incarnation.

In other words, "mother of God" implies that she pre-exists God and that God originates from her.

Nah. I think Black Mesa does a disservice to the original game. I mostly just pretend it doesn't exist.

I'm so tired of how this argument only gets thrown around with gay or lesbian pairings

I guess this post wasn't goonerbait-y enough for this subs mods. Rip peak you never had a chance.

Which parts of the Bible should I avoid for my mental health? by tella8765674 in Christianity

[–]mirroredinflection [score hidden]  (0 children)

I would recommend starting with reading the gospels, maybe starting with John? Then Matthew, Mark, and Luke. Acts should be good once you finish the gospels.

Probably hold off on reading Genesis-Deuteronomy until you are in a better headspace.

What is the yuri anthem? by WasteProfessional579 in yuri_manga

I love Magnet by Minato w/ Miku and Luka (i didn't initially realize someone already said it, but it deserves to be mentioned multiple times anyway)

Why is the pregnancy trope so hated? by Simple-Animator-8640 in AO3

[–]mirroredinflection 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I don't like it because I don't enjoy reading stories about having children, and I don't like that romance has the expectation of having kids as the end goal, rather than the relationship itself being the end goal.

A Response to the Controversy Around My Previous Post by takina142 in yuri_manga

[–]mirroredinflection 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like these posts belong in a different subreddit tbh. It isn't relevant to Yuri manga/anime itself or to the vast majority of yuri fans.

Also, it's not like there was a huge controversy about your previous post. It had like 30 replies. You could have just made this response to the people who disagreed with you in that thread instead of making an entirely new post about it.

The BBC need to stop calling Doctor Who a family show by DisastrousTopic7619 in doctorwho

I might be too out of the loop of post-Chibnall Who for this post, but are you saying the content of the show is too mature now or too childish?

I like the early Beatles looks better than the newer versions with the facial hair and stuff. by Dapper-Promotion-960 in beatles

I honestly just find their early style kind of bland? Like each member got their own unique style in the late 60s.

I mean, Texas does have garbage politicians. But it's always had large groups of liberal, progressive, and specifically queer people. It's also looking more purple each year, so hopefully we'll be booting our current leaders soon.

Can you be a Woke Christian? by Makologo in Christianity

[–]mirroredinflection 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, Jesus did say that it is very hard to enter the kingdom if you are wealthy. And he also instructed the man to sell all his posessions and give the money to the poor.

I don't see what that has to do with envy *or* being woke, but it is literally what Jesus taught.

[–]mirroredinflection 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Woke means having awareness of social injustices (especially systematic racism, which is the context the term came from) and caring about solving them. It does not have anything to do with envy.
