<p>I ask this with the utmost sincerity and respect, because I genuinely want to know the answer: <strong>1) do you believe that your desires hold any bearing on what reality is?</strong> I find religious faith to be absolutely fascinating, seriously. I see many believers use the word "faith" like some kind of impressive mic drop moment. Religious faith is literally believing something sans any elements of known reality involved, essentially taking a shortcut to a desired belief without going through all the inconvenient and complicated groundwork that usually leads to believing something. <strong>2) Can you offer any insight or does it just end there?</strong></p>

<p>Don't worry, most of your answers in this thread were. We're used to it by now.</p>
<p>In the end what most people are arguing against is not necessarily the existence of a being that set the universe in motion but rather the portrayal of that being by major religions and the resulting massive social implications that plague us to this day.</p>
<p>I am a man of science and I will not blindly believe in a God that has no proof whatsoever. But I will never deny the possibility that some kind of being jump started the existence of the universe. Mostly because even if such a being exists that it has absolutely no meaning for human life on earth.</p>

</td>

<p>Going to respond to two at once since I finally feel like I'm reaching the end of my point in the entire thread here.</p>
<p>At first, the "proof" I put forward of God's existance is revelation (can be anything from ancient to modern day revelation), even thrown in a mention of personal experiance. Since that does not suffice for most people (and I understand that) and they want arguments to justify the believe in our portrayel of God, the most paramount question is whether such a being even exists at all. Hence my repeated defense of the cosmological argument.</p>
<p>Having reached the point where the cosmological argument is doubted, but still stands, we have now come full circle to the question: "But why is this necessary being God?". The awnser is, given the argument, we know it must be God through... revelation.</p>
<p>And here we have the crux of the real Christian argument. Tradition founds itself on Rational Theology, which explains that what it has learned is God through... Tradition. Just as the Atheïst critique is Empirical towards tradition, it must lean on Skepticism against Rational Theology, and eventually ends up back at Empiricism asking for proof.</p>
<p>We are seemingly both stuck with circular reasoning. However, the astute philosopher will see we're both arguing on Coherentist lines (in which beliefs can support each other and end up circular, but this does not have to be the case) and neither has build up any conclusive arguments to knock the other off of his foundations.</p>
<p>So we are both stuck without proof, our "truth" in our definition of knowledge, but we can both have justified beliefs in our arguments, which I certainly have as I have put them forward here.</p>
<p>At this point we can recognize the matter of God's existence is a great deal more complicated then many people brashly claim or we can dig ourselves in again and return to our trench warfare.</p></body></html>

<p>I'm making it exactly as complicated as it needs to be.  A good definition has to be specific. And I'm sorry, but these matters are kind of complicated.  Sociologists actually put quite a bit of thought and effort into making good definitions. You're ignoring something I put quite a bit of thought into explaining to try and oversimplify it.</p>
<p>But to answer, no.  A baby does not believe in a god.  By your definition, that would apparently make it an atheist.  I disagree with your definition.</p>
<p>Since I answered a question, answer mine.</p>
<p>You and I want to write an academic paper about what life is like for atheists in America.  Do we talk about the 20 million or so babies in America in our paper?  Do we talk about the 71 million pigs?</p>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>But that's not my definition. I didn't make it. It's the definition for atheists /atheism. </p>
<p>Your academic paper is a complete different issue. Here is the thing. Atheists is usually applied to humans with a more complex thought process and awareness of its environment. Animals, plants and human babies don't belong in them, because they don't understand the question nor the concept. So, you won't get an answer out of them, ever. And thus, <strong>actually no one really cares. </strong></p>
<p>But as the definition of atheism /atheist currently is, it can be also applied to them. Simply, because they all lack the believe in any god. That's it. They fit the definition.</p>
<p>If you really want to write an academic paper then of course you start with the history of the word, the change of meaning / definitions, genetic fallacies, requirements and so on. And if I logically follow it, you will reach the moment where you test the definition on babies and pigs. But if the conclusion is: " Babies and pigs don't actively believe in any god. This also applies to a lot of adults. But one are called atheists and the others nothing while both apply to the same definition", then this results in special pleading. </p>
<p>A baby can't be a monotheists as much as they can't be a president (Despite Trump proves it otherwise). But they can be (not a theist) and (not a president.) Whereas for this first we got the word atheist which equals to (not a theist).</p>
<p>Also, the atheistic default position is a counter argument to apologist who claim that babies are theists.  </p></body></html>

<p><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><span style="font-family: Calibri,;">1.  Why not?  I'm asking questions to clarify your position.  That's how conversation works. They're really straight forward, and you're just ignoring them. I obviously can't force you to answer them, but I think it is in rather poor form not to and shows you're not interested in an actual conversation.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Calibri,;">2. I still don't see how I have.  Can you back up this assertion?</span></p>
<p><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; font-family: Calibri,;">3. Yes. You absolutely have. And, when I make an accusation, I can actually demonstrate it.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Calibri,;"><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">Here's you claiming a pig is an atheist.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Calibri,;"><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">"</span></span><span style="color: #4b4b4b; font-family: Lato, sans-serif;">So yes, I would also class a pig as an Atheist."  Look back at page 57, because quoting posts within a post is a pain in the ass on my computer.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #4b4b4b; font-family: Lato, sans-serif;">For bonus points, here is you claiming that you consider animals as atheists "</span><span style="color: #4b4b4b; font-family: Lato, sans-serif;">That I would consider an animal to be an Atheist as it </span><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; color: #4b4b4b; font-family: Lato, sans-serif;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">lacks belief in the theistic position."</em></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #4b4b4b; font-family: Lato, sans-serif;">So that's twice, you're saying animals, particularly pigs, are atheists...  And I must say I'm quite amused that I'm considered absurd for pushing back on this point. And once you say animals are atheists, I think questioning whether an ant is is a very reasonable follow up.  </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #4b4b4b; font-family: Lato, sans-serif;">"</span><span style="color: #4b4b4b; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; background-color: #f3f3f3;">Anyone who doesn't hold Theistic convictions is an Atheist, it's as simple as that."</span></p>
<p><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><span style="font-family: Lato, sans-serif; color: #4b4b4b;">Now, here you are defining atheist as anyone who doesn't hold theistic convictions.  Anyone is a term that applies to humans.  From Oxford English Dictionary: "</span></span><span style="color: #2a2a2a;">Any person or people." Dictionaries of course aren't official, but I've never heard anyone use the term anyone to apply to animals.  </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Lato, sans-serif; color: #4b4b4b;"><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">As I said, you claimed pigs should be counted as atheist, and then provided a definition that excludes animals.  And I just demonstrated that you've done exactly that.  So, I trust you'll acknowledge your mistake. As you have provided contradictory statements, it's entirely reasonable for me to press for clarification.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><span style="font-family: Lato, sans-serif; color: #4b4b4b;">So, please explain to me how my statement was wrong.  Unless you're in the business of baseless assertions.  </span></span></p>
<p><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><span style="font-family: Lato, sans-serif; color: #4b4b4b;">4. </span></span><span style="color: #4b4b4b; font-family: Lato, sans-serif;">Uhhhhh... what?  Saying that it's false that a definition has to be specific because it needs to be logical is just ummmm... wrong.  Because logical and specific are not mutually exclusive.  And they are not even contradictory in the least.  That's like saying "the ball isn't round because it's red". </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Lato, sans-serif; color: #4b4b4b;">Why don't we ask a reputable physicist if a good definition has to be specific?  I'm willing to bet 1,000 dollars that he'll agree.  I'm not even being facetious, that's a bet I am 100% willing to make.</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span style="font-family: Lato, sans-serif; color: #4b4b4b;"><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">So, it's quite simple.  It's just like the god question.  You're saying something (a definition of atheist you've provided that includes pigs, babies, and humans while excluding ants, cacti and sandwiches)  exists.  I'm saying this thing does not exists.  I honestly searched for it, and could find no evidence.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Lato, sans-serif; color: #4b4b4b;"><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">As you have the positive claim, you have the burden of proof.  Which should be quite easy for you to meet if your claim is true. Can you meet your burden of proof?  Because otherwise my position is justified and yours is not.</span></span></p>

<p>They aren't "only allowing partial installs"... Partial installs is an optional feature. So you don't have to wait for your whole game to install before you start playing it or even better so you don't have to keep components of a game you aren't playing anymore on your SSD. Its just more granular management. And its good considering a game will take up like 50-100GB. </p>
<p>And not a chance in hell that a 500GB SKU is an option. Especially when you consider that in 2020 a 1TB SSD will cost them about as much as they paid for a 500GB HDD in 2013.</p> </body></html>

<p>The 500G hd was/is about $22-$24. I highly doubt you'll ever get a (superfast) 500G SSD for that price, ever. With all this "save space" talk from Cerny, I still think there could be a "run of the mill" (as big as you want) hd sitting behind a relatively small (superfast) SSD (128-256GB). You would then selectively install your game key files from the hdd onto the SSD (probably no more than 2-4 games at the same time). That sounds the most economical, the SoC is already expensive enough...</p> </body></html>

<p>Maybe they did inform them, and maybe they didn't. It's not exactly the type of thing you would expect to see reporting or leaks on as it would just be asking to make the situation much worse by giving the Turks an advanced heads up as well. Like when Biden decided the prosecutor had to go, their allies were on board, which is fairly typical when the U.S. put's it's foot down, so it's not crazy to think America's allies just went along with it this time. On the other hand, Trump can make last minute decisions at times and just roll with it, and since he's the type of person who very well could make you pay if you don't play ball, maybe America's allies folded because they feared repercussions later on if they didn't follow suit.</p>
<p>If nobody else cares, then no other capable nation, or anyone from another capable nation should have anything to say other than the U.S. shouldn't just cut and run. If you feel for the Kurds in anyway, and have the financial or military capability to at the very least help them, then you should, otherwise it doesn't look good on you either. If you or your country aren't in a position to help, then pray away without guilt. I'm sure the Kurds wouldn't mind a few more helpful allies at a time like this.</p>
<p>The only thing I was trying to do was pose a question about which was worse. Neither looks good, which is why I posed the question the way I did.</p>
<p>Appreciate your point of view with a clear perspective on your stance about this issue, based on my initial question.</p>

<p>Its very evident that Turkey knew the time and moment when the US troops were pulling out since they were already mobilizing on exactly that moment.  The problem with Trump making last minute decisions that causes a massacre is something that probably should have been well thought out but as we have seen multiple times with this administration, well thought out decisions isn't one of it's strong points.  We will see how much Trump can make people pay because lately the only thing he has done is make everyone pay for his blunders.</p>
<p>As to your second paragraph, the situation still stands, are the kurds our allies or not.  This ideal you can throw blame somewhere else is a fallacy. The simple situation is that the US forces were on the ground in this area.  It was the US who made allies out of the Kurds which helped us and our President claim victory over an enemy and take all the credit.  What I feel for the Kurds is pretty simple.  If they are our allies, then we protect them like they are our allies, not stab them in the back the moment we get the opportunity.  Who cares about any other nation since it was our troops that held the ground from this event from happening.  It was a world class blunder that has cost and will cost countless lives and as an American, I see no reason to seek to share the blame or find some way to include anyone else because its very evident that none of that was done.</p> </body></html>

<p>I thought it was that it would have the fastest SSD, compared to a PC equivalent in price to the PS5. So how fast is the SSD in a $500 PC generally? The PS5 will be faster than that, but won't make it the fastest SSD on the market by late 2020. It may however be faster than anticipated, due to it's customization and integration into the console.</p>

<p>Nope. He didn't say compared to equivalent PC. He just said available to PC. Because you could either make a barebone PC with only the SSD being good, or other components being good and throwing a very old HDD on it, both could cost 500 so it would be pointless comparison.</p>

<p>I would like to know what would be the reasonable limit of what was available to PC at the time. Because I can sulk up Mark being hyperbolic or a little disingenuous/not transparent, but a flat ou lie on the like of saying they will have a SSD faster than what is available to PC but meaning "faster than HDD" doesn't make much sense.

<p>The thing is that martial arts are really not that effective in real life confrontations, this has been put to the test in recent years especially. On top of that, it is one woman against two men who are not strangers to physical challenges themselves. This was a clear statement and it tastes like the crap that it is. For me, it was just a little blemish in a great game, nothing major but totally unnecessary. Also, they just might have pulled their punches a little because she was a woman, imagine the uproar if they actually kicked the shit out of a woman..

<p>Situations like these are actually hurting the cause just as much if not more than it would otherwise. One of the biggest problems is the idea of taking something that is well known and popular, dismantling it, and building something considerably different from it. People hate change in general, and they hate it even more the faster it happens, which tends to lead to significant backlash.</p>
<p>The reason this approach is taken in the first place, is because it's extremely difficult to start something fresh and original and turn it into something widely popular, or at the very least takes a considerable amount of time to come to fruition. Not to mention, considering the agenda's and narrative's they wish to portray in these cases, it's likely to take even longer because of what type and how much change is being asked of people.</p>
<p>I mean just look at vehicles for example as something simple and not all that personal. The more recent Dodge Dart did not do well and was discontinued quickly because if you knew what the old Dodge Dart was and what it stood for, you didn't want anything to do with the new one. That car got a lot of backlash and had a lot of negativity towards it. It's the same reason why the more recent Dodge Challenger is accepted and does reasonably well, because it's a fairly minor deviation from what it once was.</p>
<p>Trying to take things like Star Wars or TLOU and turn them into something they weren't, especially in the way it's been done, is way too much change to quickly. People are not only being pushed to hard to fast, or somewhere they just won't go period, but at the same time, to them, something they love or hold dear is being ruined. To some it even seems like they're almost being given an ultimatum. Change quickly and agree or what you enjoy will be torn down. This approach isn't exactly working out they way it was meant to, unless of course tearing everything down is actually part of the agenda.</p>
<p>In today's world, while tech may change and advance quickly in just a few years time, people do not change at that same pace. Not even close. Younger generations have a harder time understanding this though and are under the impression that personal changes to people's thoughts, opinions, and beliefs, should change just as quickly. The older you get, the more set in your ways you become, which is tough to understand when you're younger and more malleable.</p>
<p>While I don't have the exact answer if there is one, it's been one step forward, two steps back for quite a while now, so if they actually want to make positive forward progress, they've got to either find another way, or just let off the gas for a while and coast and see where that get's them. People are way more open to a Sunday drive vs jumping into a race car at the track. ND should have at the very least, saved some of this story narrative for Part III. It would have been more palatable for everyone all around and presumably wouldn't have received near as much backlash.</p>

<p>Yeah. Look, take any other game or movie that people loved because of the dynamics of the two main characters and their journey together. Bad Boys with Will Smith and Martin Lawrence comes to mind off the top of my head(yeah, it's ancient because I'm ancient, I know, although the third movie came out this year). Imagine people waiting for 7 years to get that second movie and then suddenly Mike or Marcus is brutally killed like 10 minutes into the film. Then the killer takes over the movie and never faces real consequences of what he has done. What the hell is that? The heart of the thing would have been destroyed and you would expect people to just love it and applaud the bold new direction? Well, apparently some people would. I mean, I accept now that Druckmann simply wanted to do something unexpected and controversial and that's his right of course. I just didn't find it appealing and I'm not alone.</p> </body></html>

" 2. Xenoblade (only 1 game yeah) "

I think xenogears is also part of the xeno universe isn't it ?

IMHO, Xenoblade doesn't have enough in common with Xenogears and Xenosaga to be part of the same video game series.

Hopefully, Xenoblade Chronicles X is coming on Wii U, so that won't be "only one game" for long !

The funny thing is someone said Fire Emblem for the win and did not upvote it if he had fire emblem would probably had survived.

Oh, whoever that is, s/he is so going down after this.

I'm wondering why the Wars series wasn't included in this, though.

Or the phoenix wright, pikmin, f-zero series.

Phoenix Wright isn't first-party, F-Zero is practically dead.

Sorry for the double post and the horrendous way how my last post was edited, but it is not allowing me to edit. Anywas the wars series is not here since it is not as popular as others n the list w hich would mean that it would easily get eliminated.

9. Mario
8. Star fox
7. Animal Crossing
6. Pokemon
5. Metroid
4. Kirby
3. Donkey Kong
2. Fire Emblem

" 2. Xenoblade (only 1 game yeah) "

I think xenogears is also part of the xeno universe isn't it ?

Zelda first was so predictable...
I think Mario should always be splitted in Super Mario and Mario Kart.

With all Nintendo series included, my top would be :
1. Pokémon
2. Xenoblade (only 1 game yeah)
3. Fire Emblem
4. Smash Bros
5. Animal Crossing
6. Mario Kart
7. Super Mario
8. Golden Sun
9. Advance Wars
10. The Legend of Zelda

Yes, I'm not a Zelda or Metroid fanboy.
