Is my avatar offending to you... It is really important to know...
(ps. I suddenly got really bored... sorry )
-
Why should it offend anybody?
It's a peice of artwork painted by Michaelangelo on the ceiling of the sistene chapel in the vatican.
OK maybe it has some religious conotations but I don't see how art can be offensive.
Evo's don't tend to get offended by religious stuff half as much as creationists get offended by science
-
I'm offended because Adam is using his left hand to reach for God. We all know people wipe with their left hand. It's so obviously scatalogical.
-
You speak for yourself.
I wipe with toilet paper
-
Agree with PY, nice peice of art.
From a logical slant it's not logical not to believe in god if there's no additional cost in doing so and an extremly high possible gain
Now if someone actually came in with something truly graphic I'd probably be a bit upset; but I figure they'd be handled rather rapidly.

Belief isn't about cost though. From this logic, it makes just as much sense to believe in absolutely any of the gods proposed by different cultures throughout history. How the heck do we know which one (if any) is right.
As a good friend of mine says in her signature block on another forum, "Everyone is an atheist about 99.9% of the gods that have ever been proposed. I just happen to be an atheist about one more than you. Give me the reason thet you reject all those others and that will be the reason that I reject yours."
-
OO, that sounds like fun.
I hereby believe in all gods ever proposed in the entirety of history. According to my belief, there's actually only 70 gods, and all known gods are simply interpretations of those base 70.

Answer: No.

Answer: No.

Reminds me of an old girlfriend....
On-topic, usually the only thing I really get offended by are people who are easily offended...

I would have to agree with that for sure.
The other thing is Numsgil's monkey.
That thing disturbs me on so many levels

I actually liked Nums mouse pic better too. It was a qutie.
Anyway it's just picture, though I think it's more fun if they have some connection with the person. My avatar is of one of my fishes.

My avatar is what I look like in the morning

I voted for "yes, because it's too big". It really does break up the flow of the discussion.

Mine looks like me on a bad hair day.
Those darn fox ears are such a pain whaen I go for a hair cut. Sometimes I wonder if it's really worthwhile being a Youko.
Still it helps me to kick butt when I fight demons and stuff

What kind of fish is that?
It looks like some kind of Mbuna cichlid from lake Malawi.
The picture is too small to really tell which species.
Hmmmm
That was a bit weird.
I posted two seperate messages in answer to two seperate posts and it automatically merged them together into one beautifully seemles post.
This just calls for the bouncy blob to get what's coming to him I reckon.
Die annoying bouncy blob!
I actually quite like him really but don't tell him. I just wanted to be the first person to ever use the "PLZ Die" smiley
Damn!!!! It merged that one too.
-
Actually I uploaded this one first... When I saw it was to big, I scaled it down, and uploaded the new one, but it seems (somehow strange) to have reverted back to the original... Hmmm anyone?
-
The fish is a ciklid av the species Hemichromis lifalili, from Zaire in Africa. Lives in Stanley pool and river connections to the Congo river.
Let's see if this picture looks better....
-
I reckon it's a wee bit big. I'd apreciate a scale-down; but hey, it's your avatar
-
Do you like my new avatar?
-
not bad but I think I prefered your old one
-
Which one do you prefer:
1, 2, 3, 4 or 5
-
I like #1 cause it sort of reminds me of a freaky, high tech bot (a large eye in the center, mostly spherical...)
