speaking intelecually

though i am a christian i dont act like what most people consider one. the thing is that there is no real set guidlines that we can go by as christians. we are told by our preachers that this and that are bad but that and this are good. unfortunatly most christians take this at face value and dont think for themselves. i say yes to the right of abortion but on a selective scale. yes a woman has the right to choose but if that woman has unprotected sex and thinks she wont get pregnant she should have to have the baby. on the other hand a young 14 y/o girl is raped in the streets and the act of giving birth is going to harm her then i say yes to abortion but only before a certain point in the pregnancy. likewise a woman who is of age and will either be killed or hurt severely should be given the choice between abortion or birth. see people there is a serious lacking in christianity these days. christians want to think there is just black and white but reality is between that black and white there is a gray area. an area that has to play off of your moran and human fiber. being in the military myself i run into this situation. christians say murder is bad and peace is good, but what of war. is shooting another soldier murder or somthing else? i say yes it is. in a different view though murduring that soldier is the right thing to do. so hence the gray area. i dont agree with cold blooded murder but if it is for the known and undisputed greater good then yes murder should be condoned. listen to sayings and you might come across the one that states "the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few". so christians think a bit here. is it really clear cut black and white or is there a bit of gray in our faith as well. don't hate on non-believers just because they don't believe. instead lead by example show how happy you are and if it is meant to be they will follow. believe it or not you don't have to be in their faces to make an impression on them. what this all boils down to is stop being hipocryts and show some civility towards others. "do unto others as you yourself would wish others to do unto you". its not just sunday school non-sense.

by the way awesome animation, you really set a standard for others to talk about and think. don't stop making these.

Honestly?

This flash enters into the realm of controversial. I found the precept of it mirrors the script of Plato's "The Republic" where the writer, feeling clever, writes a conversation making the side they prefer look entirely correct and in control of the situation. I thought it had a lack of understanding in the pro-life movement, and of John McCain. But that's just me.
Other than that it was well animated for what there was, and the sound quality was good (although the two voices sounded simular and like they had a British accent). So I give it a five, half for the decent animation, half because the philosophical debate was a farce.

Hard to Watch

I'll be honest, I found this to actually be kind of boring. I didn't really find that funny, so it was hard to watch to the end. I think there could have been more animation, for instance, illustration of what the characters were talking about. That's my two cents.

Splendid!

I've got to say, this is some of the best work I've seen. Not only was it a Flash, but it was pretty truthful. Although I am of the Christian beleif, I often ponder many a night of exactly why we are all here. Who is God, and what makes him who he is? Why do we have to listen to him? Why are my rights as a person taken away from me at birth, just to worship some god that I wouldn't meet until I died, and would never show his face in my presence anyway? People always argue about religon, it seems. What people don't understand is that it's all about who they were born to. If the pioneers that came to the Americas were Bhuddist, we would have the exerpt "One nation, under Bhudda" in our pledge of allegiance - which is, by the way, an option. I understand that people would feel unsulted if someone didn't stand for it, but they should sit only to express their freedom, rather than their laze.

Well, here I go in another one of my obscene raves of political nonsense. I'm sorry I've been venting, but I just can't stand living in this world of such a mixed thought traction - no doubt it will run the human race into the ground with the brutal force of hypocracy, diversity and the probable use of nuclear devices. People just need to stop hating. If they think that someone's opinion is wrong, then they need to be ready to take a hit. Republicans versus Democrats, Homosexual versus Heterosexual, everything ends up in chaos. The homophobic people prey on the homosexual people, not just to pick on someone, but to express their undying and unneccisary hatred, that of which they explain through the excuse of "God's will" when they actually don't have the slightest clue of what it actually might be, if it even exists. Stories get told differently as time goes by, and I beleive that the Bible is one of the oldest stories out there. In fact, they weren't printed on a massive scale until the 1600's or so. In the Dark Ages the Catholic church was manipulating its power through its indulgences. Eventually it got rich, but what happened when the Black Plague rolled around? The Catholic church couldn't think of any reason for it, other that "the people were being bad and God was angry." This is one of the reasons why people broke off of the Catholic church. Now there are so many different branches of Christianity, that it's hard to even tell they're actually a religon. There might be a form of Christianity that calls for the need of soup at every meal, or a party hat for every occasion, something silly like that.

Well, I think I've already ranted and vented about all I needed to for now, and, who knows, you might even be able to use this in one of your Flash videos. These sorts of things normally don't project from the mind of a sophomore in high school, but that doesn't matter. I thank you if you have read this far, and for this wonderful video that you have so gracefully bestowed upon me. Excellent work.

intellectually stimulating.

I did quite enjoy this flash as it's not often people use a medium such as this to talk about serious subjects like abortion. To be quite honest, you took what you had, took a deep breath and stepped off a cliff and I respect you for that.

I seen where the second man was coming from on this, I am myself a Christian and attend a Christian high school where this was brought up as part of our RE curriculum. The first man had a valid point too but seemed to rely more on the twisting of words than moral values and fact.

This was a well made flash and good on you for taking a leap that many dread.

Cambo responds:

rather than saying that the man with glasses relies on twisting of words, it'd be helpful if you pointed out where specifically this is the case and where his case isn't supported by "moral values or facts". It'd be better to be specific about it and open yourself up to criticism than vague - not, and I suppose you'll have to take my word on this, to let me criticise you but so I can see your argument at least.

I'm not settled on any of my beliefs and if you or anybody wants to challenge them say why you believe what you believe. that might make a difference to me, so it'd be a favour. Thanks.
