nahtanojmal responds:

Yes, God's Word is good whether you believe it or not.

Thanks for reviewing :)

pretty good

even thought I don't believe in god it did make me contemplate the things in my life.

nahtanojmal responds:

Mission accomplished :D
Thanks for reviewing ;D

Good

This was good, i enjoyed your outlooks on life since they resemble my own, people disgust me and the world is spiraling downwards.
Unfortunately, like most of the people that are making some really horrible comments, i don't believe in religion for the same reasons napalm6b mentioned, but unlike him i'm not angry, the animation was good and if religion is how you deal with this messed up world then so be it.
Keep up the good work.

nahtanojmal responds:

Hey Thanks, I appreciate it ;)

It touched me, I can tell that much.
I'm unsure if I am religious or not, open to both I guess. I don't want to have to chose between spiritual and scientific if that makes sense.

It also brings up the question that has been on my mind for a while now. I live in a society where negitive things are shovelled onto you, and a few years ago I was drowing under it. Even now I sometimes stil have those moments.

However I've found a solution, which is to let all those negitive thoughs go. Let go of my anger to those people who irk me for the sake of happiness.

So my question is simple.
Is it alright to forget the bad, for the sake of happiness? Is it alright to ignore everything that makes me worry, and fear for the future for the sake of keeping my head above the surface?

Global warming, government, grades, family. There are so many things piling up in my life and it is hard enough to adress my own issues without having to worry about others. And I do, I can't help it. I feel for every person who has something bad happening in their life.

But no one else seems to care. Cutting down on my usage of power and water, family starts to use more. Study hard for the test, get lower grades then when I hadn't studied. Family grieving over loss of family. Family not understanding what I wish to do with my life.

It is enough to make me want to scream. I can't handle it all at once, I can't solve every problem. I have no solution.

But is it allowed, to ignore everything that I can't change and focus on what I can?
ARGH, why does my mind have to come up with such hard questions?

nahtanojmal responds:

I think choosing to be spiritual or scientific is like having to chose which side of my brain I'm allowed to use. You need both.

Yes, if you want temporal happiness that will fade as the bad arises...

Philippians 4:6-7
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

"Look to God, not yourself.
Because He is our only real foundation in this life."

If you do not regard God you will have to deal with these things by ignoring them or by false hope.

Thank you for your comment ;)

I liked it!

I really liked the music, the spectacle and the atmosphere. I'm a sucker for existentialism. have to agree with some people on the mellow dramatics though. ..even though, admittedly over dramatizing is actually a decent way of fully getting a point across, I would try a bit more subtlety next time. Funny this line right here--

"your corruption is your fault.
your corruption is your fault.
Not because you could chose not to be corrupt,
but because you have not given up on yourself."

lol thats a very blatant way of putting it. I mean ... the idea isn't to give up on yourself. I agree with it though .. supporting scriptures, very loosely quoted :P. ::Man was not ment to guide his own footsteps ..and Man has dominated man to his own injury.

Also, don't you think Hell is a bit out of character for a god who IS love? Think of it on a scale of infinite burning --to even a man who lived his whole life sinfully. Just close your eyes and scale that for a second. Even our puny man minds can realize the injustice in that. Sides, the word 'Hell' was used to translate several different original text words like Sheol, Hades, and Gehenna. Which all but Gehenna simply means grave ..Gehenna means the grave you won't com back from.

Looking at the reviews and responses. It's sad, the conundrum of different point of views. Two people honestly trying to help each other ..both looking at the other as sadly misguided.

Truth is, what is, not what you want. But, in a negation of perfection(Adam) ...imperfection. What we do want is not what we should want... is not what fulfills us. History proves it, present day proves it. We strive for things of fabricated value and perpetuate our own corruption.

But, alas, this is a review 7/10 because Propaganda is off putting and it was, as mentioned, very rigid, with all the tweening and what not. I liked it though, keep it up!

nahtanojmal responds:

Lying to a child - little to no consequence
Lying to your boss - lose your job
Lying to your government - pay fine or go to jail
Lying to an eternal God - Eternal Hell

God is love and stands for all things good, so, he must be against all things that are not good.

Thanks for the review ;)
