Welcome! If you ever need a cool flygon avatar just click on the link in my sig! I just have to advertise the thread Welcome again! I never understood flygon (I do love him though) dragon and ground...but in his name is the word fly...it begs the question why he's not flying and dragon. Fly-flying gon- dragon..???

I like more colors but that's just me. That's why I love the the super nova effect. Enkidu's looks dark and depressing, why not cheery colors like Red or yellow or a light blue and green. But that's just me. Dont we want the banner to be eye catching enough to attract people to the thread. Brighter colors make things more eye catching.

I still have yet to read the links and unless someone else posts I'm going to edit this post upon reading. Now, the whole animals having sex for pleasure, I think I see the point how the whole act is pleasurable, and if it wasn't there would be less. So I guess I see you're point. Especially when I think about the level of intelligence animals have. Sex is a binding contract, or at least it should be, but the human race has far overly abused it. Then when the woman doesn't want the baby she has an abortion...that's an act of murder. You're killing a baby. Homosexuality IS wrong. Its not natural! Can you procreate by having sex with your own gender? The answer is no. Its not natural. I do realize the evolution line from an ape to a man, unfortunately.., but I dont think its true. I still think there would be some fossil evidence of some ape to man transitional species. I mean REAL fossil evidence. Without that its really hard to think that the theory's true. As for wicca being not satanic...lol really! Satan is the king of this earth...from what I've heard you guys worship the earth! Being in connect with nature and other things you've said sounds like you're worshiping the earth. Although it is beautiful I cant disagree, since God made it, but what you're doing is satanic. The visions and stuff you're seeing is from satan. He's controlling you. You're messing around with real forces of evil. @ Zarfur... how is an ape becoming a man not related to evolution? I'm sorry but by what you're saying a bunch of apes became men/women so why would that not be considered evolution? Evolution = Little changes over time that eventually makes a group of animals so different from their ancestors that we decide to classify them as a different species, or subspecies, or breed... I see how the definition fits evolution but an apes becoming men certainly fits the definition. Also, by that definition are you saying that all those breeds of dogs are evolutions? What about a mule? Or a liger? Are those forms of evolutions too? Sex is supposed to be a binding contract even if people dont use it as such. One man and One woman coming together saying that they love one another to have sex with them and to create a new life and raise that baby together. Then when that doesn't happen and you have sex for pleasure, all of a sudden you have a baby. Now you either abort it (since you dont want it since the innercourse was for pleasure) or you put it up for adoption. You're ruining the lives of the children from day one! How would you like it? I do realize that the man can leave marriage or not. That's horrible either way...especially if the man was married. God is against divorce too. You're supposed to only be married once. Divorce is horrible. Not only are you abandoning someone but you're saying that you dont want anything ever to do with that person ever again and you're sorry anything ever was! Its horrible. It can ruin the lives of children and the spouse. My best friend's parents were divorced and I dont know if he harbors it that much. He still sees both parents but then his mom remarried (no idea about dad) and now he has to go back and forth between houses...I cant keep anything straight especially since his stepdad had a divorce prior to marrying my friend's mom so its all chaos when he talks about his family. Its a horrible thing. I dont know how my friend or anyone else could keep things straight. I realize that I dont know much about your wiccan faith...but I plan to learn more so that I can be more accurate. So far though I think its pretty satanic being that you pratically worship the earth. Satan is the king of this world until in the end God will make a new heaven and a new earth and satan and his followers will be cast into the lake of fire. (Hell) God's already won the battle...he's just waiting for his plan to be executed...why he's waiting I don't know..no one does...not even the Son of God himself...only God knows. Are you confused on how Christians worship one God yet there is three in the trilogy, Holy spirit, God the father, and God the son? Its quite difficult to understand. They're all one person but not one person at the same time...its odd...but really one person. I still have to read the links but I figured that i should post before there is to much to catch up on. Edit: I started reading the part on Wiccan/witchcraft and one of the first things it said was "An earth centered religion" This only backs up my point on how you're practice is satanic. I'm not saying that the earth itself is satanic after all it is made by God but the things that we have made of the world and the ruler, satan himself, are satanic. such as money, it can be a powerful idol. And anything, that takes the #1 slot instead of God is considered an idol and needs to be bumped down too 2 or below or eliminated over all. Edit 2: "We should educate people that 'Witch' is not evil but ancient and positive. The first time I called myself a 'Witch' was the most magical moment of my life." Margot Adler. Wicked with of the west? The various witches that serve voldemort? Witches are portrait as evil...dont get me started on the good witch...she looked far more like a fairy god mother then a witch. Edit 3: "Neo-Pagan Witches aren't Satanists. The Christian anti-God, Satan, has no place in Pagan pantheons, either mythologically or theologically. Plainly and simply, to non-Christians, Satanism is the dark side of Christianity." Otter and Morning Glory Zell You may not be satanists but that doesn't mean that what you do and worship isn't satanic. Edit 4: "…they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator…" (Romans 1:25) How the truth rings so clearly. You worship nature which is God's creation yet you dont worship the divine creator? I love my drifloon sig and I give credit to bear831. Who do I give more appreciation too for the great sig. The sig itself or bear831? I'm not sure if that's the best example but its the only one I have at the moment. Edit 5: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself" (Mark 12:31) Ah once again the truth rings like a melodious bell...true Christians dont wish to harm they wish to help. The ones that say they're Christians but still go around persecuting people are hypocrites. If people listen to them they can help. I'm not persecuting you or anyone, that is never ever one of my goals in this debate or any other. I'm trying to show you the truth. Edit 6: Christians aren't perfect....that's why it is far more important to listen to what the bible has to say then what the people have to say. The bible is God's word...and it is far more important to listen to Jesus and the bible then anything else. Hbr 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of [our] faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. The bell of truth rings again... Edit 7: John 8:44 Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. Its talking about Satan's attributes here...making him a personal being instead of just a force like most wiccans believe. Are you hearing the bell? Edit 8: I've come to the realization that some witches curse others...do you? If so do you use it for vengeance? Hebrews 10:30- For we know him that hath said, Vengeance [belongeth] unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people. Or in other terms God will take vengeance for you. Edit 9: Kuoleva...what are your views on Christianity? Edit 10: I just had to include these verses...these are some of the ones from the bible saying that witchcraft is wrong. "There shall not be found among you anyone who …practices witchcraft, or a soothsayer, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, or one who conjures spells, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead. For all who do these things are an abomination to the LORD, and because of these abominations the LORD your God drives them out from before you. You shall be blameless before the LORD your God. For these nations which you will dispossess listened to soothsayers and diviners; but as for you, the LORD your God has not appointed such for you." Deut. 18:10-14 The bell of truth rings again...

I know I'll lose a vote but I have my mew avatar which is basically the same. Plus I think telos should win although I think enkidu will.

I wonder...do you think I can transfer my vote over to telos's? I've been thinking about it...and his work is way better.

<3<3<3Very beautifully said turtlekid2 very well put<3<3<3 As to question just one of the things you said turtlekid2...I do believe that more then just enkidu has resorted to insults. I do believe that many of the times Kuoleva swore they were directed as insults. Also, I feel very sorry for you, you've suffered a great loss, a loss of a friend and no one should half to feel that at such an early age. Although it is a little out of place since we didn't so its odd to bring it up. I'm sure that no sane christian would kill someone. Sex is a binding contract, just like turtlekid2 said. It is reserved for marriage. When you get married you have to sign a bunch of legal documents and stuff, and before you have innercourse you have to prepare for the baby and stuff like that. When you do it without marriage you have none of the legal documents, no preparation, and no trust in one another. Legally the man could take off and leave you with the baby. Missing links, these things are nothing but fakes or they're being perceived incorrectly by the discoverers. Also, dinosaurs and animals did coexist. Humans were there too. We all coexisted. There was none of the and then 2 million year later, mammals appeared. Or something like that. There wasn't any of that. It all came together in a matter of a 6 day period. You say 6 million years...I say 6 days. Both very profound statements if you think about it. Animals, having sex for pleasure, is something I find ridiculous. They have sex for the soul reason to reproduce. They act on instinct and animal instinct is to survive, find a mate, and reproduce.

Thanks...I do love the rainbow swift effect it gives the snowflakes to show off the cute little mew. Mew and drifloon are some of the cutest pokemon in existence!

You see my point though right. I see yours can you say that you see mine...that's kind of what I'm looking for.

What...no! After I got drifloon it was all the balloon time! Plus my gengar and drifblim are higher in level then infernape and mismagius is pretty close. I'm planning on beating fantina with her own medicine! I see your point but its to easy if you're playing to beat the game the first time through. I have picked the penguin...twice! I do love my empoleon and its my highest pokemon at a level 94. I've trained it well I adore it and I will cherish it over my infernape any day. You can choose different pokes to make it harder but if you're playing to win why make it hard on yourself. I see your point do you see mine?

Oh, I forgot about the magmar addition...he is probably one of the best fire pokes you can catch in sinnoh because he evolves into magmortar. I'm bias towards water types as well I love the little fishies! If it has anything to do towards elements then I'm going to choose water as the fave! I just love the water element. I dont know why. Maybe its because I always loved watching water benders on avatar the last air bender? maybe? Anyways...you cant deny infernape's usefulness and neither can I. It does make it easier but you can still beat the gyms easily if you train your pokes properly to take down the gyms. I mean its not that hard. Sometimes you end up over training.

Hey! I battled through my first pearl with piplup/evos and platinum with piplup/evos and you know how much I hate the flaming ape! I just wanted to see what it was like playing through the game practically unbeatable. And as for the lack of fire types... Houndoom/houndor was added in platinum Flareon? Come on Flareon was added before national dex as well in platinum Rapidash/ponyta Chimchar and evos Those are pretty good fire types. I mean when there are fire types they're good. Rapidash is fast rapidly dashing. Flareon with flash fire. Houndoom/houndor with two types. You know how good infernape is...do I need to say more. All you have to do is be prepared to beat down the gyms.

Well piplup with bubble, still it can defeat plus dont forget about budew! Budew's absorb says high to that pathetic geodude. Gardenia's roserade is annoying and probably one of my least favorite gym pokes ever! However, my fire type (monferno hehe) swept through all three of her pokes (plus I had a team of flying types and pokemon that new flying attacks) behind me if my infernape fell to roserade for some reason. Fantina might be the only "tough" gym leader in the game because there is no access to good pokemon type advantages. However, Luxio, haha there is use, says high on this one with his dark type move bite. Also, dont forget the ever wonderful buneary with the move foresight coming up and being immune to ghost attacks and then hitting hard with normal power! Also, Lucario! Pushover! Really drifblim says hi...with gust and ghost attacks. Dont forget about gengar and alakazam or their pre evos. In platinum I struggled with wake because I was used to them being underleveled and I hated training back before I beat platinum so my team was so underleveled. Thank goodness you can catch rotom earlier because if it wasn't for his electric attacks floatzel would've owned me with brine. See how you said the 6th gym was easy because you had the right pokes. If you have the right pokes and plan you can KO any of the gym's team. I can see why the last 7th gym can be tough but the ice weakness is so obvious...I dont know how...I mean even I understood that back when I new nothing about pokemon..naturally fire beats ice so that's obvious. The 8th gym...please such an obvious weakness makes that gym laughable. A decent ground type like garchomp can sweep through those poor electric pokes. Edit: Thank you hottsushiz beating the E4 was far more rewarding.

If you want more Psychedelic check out my avatar! its a mew this time!

Interesting..I like it narwhal...I think its better then you're pikachu one. I hope telos's wins because I dont think mine has a shot anymore.

I'm absolutely disgusted! I'm so appalled! For one, you directly insulted me and my beliefs. I'm not a 5 year old...if I was I'd be a genius and a prodigy because I can type coherent sentences. Do you have to swear in every other sentence? Gosh there are better words to use then those words. Do you suffer from anger problems? Edit: As for saying ew...would you rather me say gross? You've had sex at age 14! do you...of course you dont know....um what about the whole you're going to have a baby now thing? I mean seriously do you know the responsibilities? I also was reading through some of your previous early on posts and...you're a witch? Why? How could you practice something that satanic? Why dont you read through this page...actually read it! Link to the truth A frog is not a missing link...what are you refering too? Can you back that up? A frog may be capable of living on land and water and it lays its eggs in water. This is a natural gift that God gave the frog...I think it would be a good time for this image. It depends on how you look at it sometimes. Really though, a frog is not at all a missing link. As on your morals comment...did anyone have to be taught to do anything wrong? Did people have to be taught to do wrong. No, people had to be taught to do right. Morals existed...and they're stated in the bible. If you're looking for evidence without the bible then that's like this... My answer is...no way! end edit. Edit 2: I was reading some more early posts and i think clearly some of the Christians you've been around haven't been well completely full on it. I mean they aren't here to kill anyone they're supposed to heal and represent the love of God. Like this song.... I dont know the author sorry... "If we are the body (the body of God) then why aren't our arms reaching? Why aren't our hands healing? Then if we are the body..why aren't our feet going? Why is the love not showing..." Clearly you were around people that weren't showing the love properly. Its a good song but I dont have it memorized. The bible may have been written by humans but it was God using them. They loved him and served him so they willingly let God inspire his ideas inside the head and then they wrote down exactly what God wanted them too. They were willing to do it if they weren't willing God would've found someone that was. End edit 2. Edit 3: Once again reading through the old posts I see lots of things that I should mention. Such as the discovered missing links. Ugh, people can fake things. I'm highly skeptical on such things being that lots of things look alike because God uses his designs over such as the human hand and that of the monkey's but that doesn't mean that they evolve into humans or something else...God makes each of his creatures unique in some way. As for your prehistoric creatures having feathers...I'm not sure what your point is there. Big deal they had feathers...I mean hello...birds! God created all the animals at the same time and they all were unique with some similarities of course. So a velociraptor has similarities to a bird...there is no way its going to evolve from a fast land monstrosity to a small feathered creature that can fly. It just doesn't make sense and goes against the bible's evidence for creation. End edit 3 Edit 4: I've missed a lot of the thread and there is a lot that I disagree with. Dinosaurs and birds did exist at the same time. The reasons that the birds survived is because the new climate that the flood caused was to different and harsh for the poor dinos so they eventually died off. The birds were far better suited towards the environment then the dinos so they survived. Selective breeding and having new traits bred onto animals is not evolution at all. Evolution I think is one species evolving into another species to create an entirely new species. Am I right on that? With a new fur color or something like that doesn't make a new species a dog with silver fur is still a dog. End edit 4 Edit 5: lol dolphins having sex for pleasure. No, animals dont have sex for pleasure (unlike us corrupt humans) animals have innercourse for the single reason of reproduction and no pleasure seeking involved. Unlike humans, animals have a set "program" so to speak that tells them how to live and they dont know anything else and always abide by that "program or code" just like a bird knows to fly and a dog knows to sniff to find food. Its a natural thing (unlike homosexuality which clearly isn't natural) We are seperate from animals because we can choose. We have a choice of how we want to live our lives unlike that of regular animals who follow a set program and anything else is just a profound thought. A spider knows how to spin a web does it do anything else to catch food? no it spins a web? We humans can either grow food or kill for food. We have choices we can make choices and its a huge difference to that of animals. Yet another reason why a monkey could NEVER become a human. End edit 5. Edit 6: I noticed that someone mentioned cockiness and how being cocky was distracted and then enkidu said that wraith89 was the cockiest of all (I'm pretty sure this is how it went) and there were a bunch of side little comments about the cockiness. Quite frankly we're all cocky. Also although you may not intend to hurt someone or offend them since you cant here the voice behind the words you cant really tell and people make false assumptions. To me that isn't being cocky, that's being human. End edit 6. Edit 7: Illithian directed a post at wraith89 (post 96) and one of the first things said was.... In one of your posts, you stated that it was impossible to breed a horse with a donkey. I agree. Can you breed a turtle with a snake? No. This we can agree on. I thought that wraith89 said that a horse and a dog cannot breed yet a horse and a donkey can. Isn't that how you get a mule? I just dont like misquotes and I think it was a misquote. Plus a horse and a donkey can breed to get a mule. At least that is the impression I'm under. In the same post illithian also said that he believed the bible to be a guide to living a good life. I believe that to be incorrect. The bible is a guide towards living life and living it properly. Ten commandments anyone? The bible is also the greatest history book historians will ever have. end edit 7 Edit 8: That article okami posted is definitely not....(I refuse to say it).....although the site may be completely bias does that mean that all credibility should be automatically dumped? Really just because it clearly has an opinion that cant be swayed does that mean its wrong to cite such a resource? I'm sure that the people that wrote those wiki articles are bias towards one side. It would be incredibly difficult to find a site or other resource that isn't bias. I think answers in genesis is completely credible although it's bias towards the bible and its creation theory. Also, I'm sorry if bringing up all of the old posts seems a bit odd to you but I missed a lot that I want to comment on. end edit 8.

So wait...all of a sudden being gay..is...ok? That wasn't God's plan at all. Just like sexual intercourse (ew!) before marriage is also not part of God's plan but guess how much of that there is today. Whether people take guns to their heads because they cant have what they want or not homosexuality is wrong. On STDs that can happen between any sexual intercourse (ew) unfortunately it happens more when there is multiple sexual intercourses (ew) with more then one person. So X having sex with A, B, C, and D would make him more likely and his partners more likely to receive a STD. I'm pretty sure that is correct. Also I would suggest not to read the horse and his boy. Its a total bore fest and I dont remember any of it or why its called the horse and his boy. Also I read the book before seeing the movie too. --Jiggy Ninja-- In addition to her statements, Darwin wrote his book over 100 years ago, probably closer to 150. Considering all those "we can suppose"'s, it's important to keep it in context. Darwin formulated his theory before Mendell (I think that's his name) conducted his experiments. Evolution was conceived of before DNA, genes, and chromosomes were discovered. There wasn't yet any proof that offspring were influenced by their parents. In fact, that idea didn't even exist before Darwin's book. Darwin's theory, as laid out in On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection was very much incomplete, but it was also very much ahead of its time. Scientists have made numerous discoveries since Darwin's days that support the basic foundation of his theory, even if they do not support every detail of it. Genes have been discovered that give the method of inheritance necessary for evolution to occur. The rate of genetic mutation in gamete (either gamete or zygote, I forget my bio terminology) formation has been has been measured through observation (I think the average is 1 mutation per billion nucleotide bases, but don't hold me to that), which is the second thing necessary for evolution to occur. Natural selection has been observed to occur in laboratory experiments, the third and final component necessary for evolution to occur. All three of the basic principles that form the foundation of evolution have been discovered and observed. Intelligent Design (Creationism with a cheap, secular hat) has, at most, a dusty old book written almost 2,000 years ago under dubious conditions and by unverifiable authors. What is there left to dispute? You are correct on mendel, he was as some say "The father of genetics" For through his experiments with pea pods he was able to come up with his theory. His studies were basic and his results were some of the greatest information on genetics scientists have ever received. However humans should stop sticking their noses further and further into the creation. All we're going to do is either perceive something, act on it, be wrong and mess everything up. Or have the right information, act upon it, and still mess things up. We're going to ruin the beauty of the world around us and screw up so many things and only bring misfortune upon ourselves! And for the record that "dusty old book" has sold the most copies of any book ever published in the world! The Bible should be ignored. It cannot be verified that it is truly God's word. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and the Bible doesn't have anything approaching extraordinary evidence, despite the fact that it makes the ultimate of extraordinary claims. What! Ignored? The bible is the most accurate history book historians could ever get! True extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. So where's yours? Have you ever seen an ape become a man? Have you ever seen fossil evidence of a transitional species? Of course we have evidence. Artifacts and proof that the bible's events happened. "Bible people" for lack of better words would've been able to properly discover the ark of noah except the country that is believed to have the ark within it wont let the "bible people" in to investigate. "Just a theory" is a blatant misrepresentation of what theory means in a scientific sense. In every science textbook I've ever read, a theory is defined as a set of ideas that coherently explain a set of natural phenomena that have a wide body of supporting evidence and gained widespread consensus among scientist. That's not a small thing. Would you object to tectonic plate theory, because it is "just a theory"? Again, you're confusing morals and human laws. The textbooks that you get in schools hold many lies..after all its what the government wants to teach the future generation the teachers are just doing their job. Its annoying that the teachers cant speak out for their beliefs they have to teach what they have to teach. The government is corrupt therefore what they make is corrupt. I dont have time to counter all your points but I'm assuming by the time I come back there will be more points to counter.

Yeah that means more work for them...muhahahahahahahahahah....although I do hope I win...I wouldn't mind the work. Winning would be enough.

What's wrong with gardenia's outfit? They're to weak. If you put in some training time you can easily out level them and crush them. Plus you can easily find a pokemon with a type advantage over it and come in to destroy it. The gym leaders could at least put up a fight. like knowing moves that can cover their weaknesses like that blasted infernape. Why dont you attack one gym leader that you think is the toughest and then I'm forced to defend my case. Why dont you do that so we're not all over the place with gyms. Which gym do you think is the toughest?

LOL, grab the guest! Hey guest, log on and vote! Anyway...I dont think a man angel suits Wraith89 (A.K.A ghost of the forums) also I think we're just going to have to sacrifice our pride and add it to our sig and take out our own sig...or we could force them to make a miny version...muhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah! you didn't know I was secretly evil! Hehe...

Proper terminology...what is this school? Oh wait...I've always dreamed about a pokemon school. Ok time to test out what I've learned... Empoleon is attacked by fire is the attack 1x effective 1/2x effective or... 4x effective Answer: 1x effective Ground is 2x effective as the same for grass and electric. How could they make empoleon more vulnerable to fire? How could they? How could they *cries* ok...then ground...how could they? Water owns ground? Why do they do this? Why why why? Sinnoh starter evos are messed up... Now water can do damage to grass Grass (you got me there) Fire can do more damage to water What is wrong! Oh yeah...everything. How can they do this to the starters. Plus they have to go degrade landscape over there by not adding a type to the uberinferno which would allow grass to hurt fire. Although ground makes it more resistant to fire right?

Its the ghost! Get him! Anyways welcome to Project pokemon....if you need a cool avatar just look for one of my posts and click on the link in my sig!

NO! Ugh, well maybe a little, but what I meant by resist means it lowers it down to neutral instead of x2 like it usually is. Its still a valuable thing to have on a water type...besides the stupid steel type addition to empoleon...who wants a water type that makes fire attacks neutral or weak against ground types which it is superior too? What up with that?

The prize is the winning banner will get to represent the avatar thread. So PMs will be signed with the image (we send out a lot of PMs regarding the avatar thread) it will represent the avatar thread group in the social groups section and it will be in all of our signatures. I think that is a pretty big prize. If only we could get more people to vote.
