and oh yea; i've often wondered why the 1st 2 of the 10 commandments were as such:
1- thou shalt have no other gods before me
2- thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them... *etc, etc*
but no more.
it is because it is one thing to worship other gods other than God himself. but even then, we must NOT set up any image, in any sort of fashion or form, and worship them, even if they are revered people/saints/angels in god's kingdom.
we must NOT pray to the saints, expecting them to intercede to god on our behalf.
we must NOT pray to the virgin mary, that she might interact w/god for us.
the only person we can come to is jesus, and that is on no coincidence that he was god incarnate, or basically God himself. (on top of many other reasons, like having come in sinful flesh, being our eternal high priest)
why was the old testament established if it was shown to not work? because it was created to show our need for a savior. romans points this out perfectly. would we know we were guilty of coveting if there was not a perfect law which stated in plain english, "do not covet?" but through this law, we find not salvation, but the need of a saviour. and from that saviour, we find salvation.

thomas nelson bibles sell the smallest kjv bible i've ever seen; it's like 3 in by 4 in, 1 cm thick. too bad i only saw one copy @barnes n noble, and it was red, not black. haven't seen them at bereans yet.
i really can't begin to study more about the kjv vs modern bible research til the books come in the mail, so i'm kinda stagnant right now; just have a lot of good accusations and arguments that i've pulled up from the internet as of right now. guess i could write them all down though.
hebrews uses the word "testament" to describe jesus' addition to his people in the bible. a testament is essentially the will of a person. think of it this way; the bible really is the will of the lord jesus christ. now, the person who writes that will is free, as long as he lives, to change, add and subtract to it as he likes, but once he dies, it becomes etched in stone. that is why jesus had the sole ability and privilege to add the new testament to the old testament; he wrote the old testament. here's some verses you can look at to ponder.
Hebrews 7:22: By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
Hebrews 8:6-7: But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.
Hebrews 8:13: In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.
Hebrews 9:13-18: For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:
How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.
For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.
Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.
and i want to take the oppurtunity to explain something about the kjv; you may notice that as you read the kjv, there's words randomly placed in italics. why is this? that is because while the editors for the kjv attempted to used word-for-word translation to accurately translate the bible from hebrew and greek to english, a 100% word-for-word translation was not possible. hence, words that were added in order to ensure that the passages would read fluently are marked with italics! isn't that amazing? that they would have the honesty to show which words they added to the bible! because we know that the scriptures at the very end of revelations condemn the people who add or subtract words to the bible. so, by this, we can judge whether or not these people honestly took away the original meaning of the bible. think about it. if everything i've found out about the modern bibles and their corruptness is true, then who knows how many verses they changed!

i was bored, so instead of playing tekken 3 at the mu, recently, i created a new character for "showtime: nba on nbc" at the mu; he's named "jrich" :D that's cause the game was based on the year 2000 i believe. warriors have starks, marshall, bogues. they do however, have DAMP!
i have to work up the wins in order to get enough attributes to distribute so he's REALLY like jrich. right now, he's not even jrich's build and height.
so if you ever wanna use jrich @the mu: jrich, then "end" and pin number's 23, then two "squares."
cpu ai's retarded though; guys who shouldn't nail 3s do like clockwork, like damp and joe smith. guys who shouldn't be able to block your shot do it like clockwork like nash.
but i play defense, so it's an equalizer; the stats show that i'm like 5th at the arcade in top defenses(~55 pts allowed/game). although the cpu pisses me off; really. even my own teammate pisses me off, cause he's not going for the rebounds like he's ben wallace when i miss my 3s and 2s.
my room's so messy, it irks me, but i'm so lazy... i'll do it this weekend.

i own a rediculous amount of rubber bracelets and wwjd woven bracelets combined... well, it's growing... 5... but i never wear more than 1 on each hand... heh... most ppl care only about what they're wearing... i wonder about switching up my bracelets... cause if you've ever seen ppl wear more than 2 bracelet on each hand, it looks stupid. heck, i think you shouldn't wear more than 1.
he who has eyes, let him see...
he who has ears, let him hear...
oh the dilemma...
struggle in vain against the forces of darkness that strive to put the final antichrist on the throne, knowing you're simply signing your own death warrant, given that revelations and daniel both state they WILL come to pass...
or do nothing, and become the watchman described in the bible whom jesus states will demand an accounting for...
i only pray that i may develop the courage to stand up for what i believe in...

vf4 evo is the best fighting game i've ever played; i'll glad i found out that it only cost ten dollars at best buy. they even make the training mode so detailed that you can learn the basics of the game from that alone; no other fighting game on console has that feature. i've always loved the vf series. probably try to learn akira, sarah, lau, jeff, then maybe brad or goh, somebody new. and i should get a joystick.
i just gotta make sure i set the kitchen timer everytime i play, or i could go overboard.
k, i should explain the bible research thing i did a post ago...
God is called "Holy One" or "Holy One of Israel," and rightfully so. he is referenced so much in the bible as such.
however, if you did a search for the words "Holy One of God," only two places will this pop up in the kjv: mark 1:24, and luke 4:34; both are spoken by a demon-possessed man. in both cases, when the demon says such words, jesus' response is to rebuke them, tell them to shut up and then to come out of him. now, it is important to realize that demons ALSO called him the son of God, but when Jesus rebukes them there, it is because he doesn't want them to reveal the truth to the common hebrew man, lest they not crucify him. remember this distinctiveness. when jesus casts out the demons calling him the "holy one of god," it is because they are speaking blasphemy.
now, try searching for the words "christ, the son of the living god," matthew 16:16 and john 6:69 pop up. this is when jesus asks peter what jesus is. jesus' response is to bless him, b/c it was revealed to him not by man's thinking, but by God. therefore it must be truth. and indeed it is true; 1st john 4:2 shows that every spirit that confesses that Jesus has come in the flesh is from God.
the NIV bible's john 6:69 calls Jesus the "Holy One of God." again, let's think a little bit; no where else in the bible is some being along the allegiance of good call god "holy one of god."
common modern day bible scholars refute these arguments by pointing to other places in the kjv where it doesn't refer to jesus but instead says something like "he." and i'm still looking into that. but if the kjv bible is not speaking of a flat-out blasphemy like the john 6:69 example, i don't see any reason why those arguments should be acceptable.
but i think the strongest argument for the kjv bible may be the agreement with geocentricity as opposed to heliocentricity; i'll look into that later.

well, although the pistons lost and the spurs won, at least i can be comfortable knowing the pistons pushed the spurs to actually earn their rings, unlike the previous years when the spurs reached the finals. game 7 was actually pretty close, and at times in the pistons' favor. i thought the pivotal moments came when detroit's best big men were sitted b/c brown was afraid to get them in deeper foul trouble. that's when duncan just took advantage of the mismatches, b/c detroit went small. but give the spurs credit; i don't think they have any glaring weaknesses out of all the teams in the nba. detroit did spectacular, but you could say in game 7 their weakness of a thin bench finally came out, because once they got in foul trouble, they really got nailed.
strangely enough, bob got his wish after game 4; all the following games were close.
series recap in short:
i was wrong about parker; the big guard for the spurs was manu ginobili, and the x-factor came from robert horry. duncan was of course their constant; wasn't flat-out dominant like in previous years when he almost got a quadruple double, but the big overall consistent person.
i was also wrong about detroit; their main guard was billups; i seriously don't give this guy enough credit; doesn't always score big every game, but he's the most consistent offensive player. big ben was also a serious mvp candidate for the pistons, as he played his heart out after game 2, with rebound after rebound; although he had his difficulties w/guarding duncan, the series would have even greater swung towards the spurs if it weren't for him. and mcdice was huge off the bench. the series could have been greatly different if prince was a much bigger factor; he was just too quiet offensively.
despite what it seemed like, i think maybe, just MAYBE, detroit could've won in 6 if rasheed had not tried to double ginobili in game 5 during overtime(basically if detroit actually won 3 in a row at home). but then again, i don't know if spurs would've played the same during game 6, and ditto for the pistons.

what i find most intriguing about the bible is that specific verses not only agree with each other at the time it was written, but it agrees with the past, and the future as well. god was not lying at all when he said his words are truth.
because inside it it pinpoints every single antichrist who hates jesus and only desires power of this world. i would not be surprised if there really was a conspiracy to entirely undermine and persecute the christian faith occurring right now. if the kjv bible really was god's word alone, and did pinpoint every single antichrist to come, then that's even more reason to understand why so many bible versions were created.
FOR SURE, my biblical research definately will not end with just the topic of the validity of the KJV bible vs the validity of all other modern bibles. in fact, i might even put aside the topic of the roman catholic church, and look at the zionists specifically after the bible research. it seems like speculatively, that could be a bigger problem than the RCC.
but i'm losing you. so here's something you can try to see just one of the grains of sand of evidence supporting the kjv. of course, there's more, but you can try this yourself.
go to biblegateway.com and select king james version as your bible search engine. type in "holy one," search, and select "more results from king james version" at the bottom of the page. change "match all words" to "match exact phrase." then search again. got it? you should see a plephora of matches with "holy one," often times "holy one of israel."(you can try searching "holy one of israel" instead) note the allegiance of the one who says it(good or evil?) should be overwhelmingly one sided who says it.
now try the same thing with the words "holy one of god." note who says it each time it pops up, how many verses pop up.
now try "Christ, the Son of the Living God" and note who says it each time it pops up, how many verses pop up.
got it?
now try the same search w/the NIV search engine.("Holy One of Israel", then "Holy One of God", then "Christ, the Son of the Living God")
go ahead and compare "Holy One of God" with "Christ, the Son of the Living God" using the other bible search engines.
interestingly enough, if you did it correctly, only 21KJV has similar results to KJV; of course, that bible also has problems that other arguments explain, but i'll explain what's the significance of these searching results tomorrow or so; give you a day or two to brood on it.

my tekken 5 skills are horrid... they SUCK. this is why if i'm planning on playing tekken 5 more, i should save up instead of playing tekken 3 at the mu.
i was lucky to get ONE win with jin... my card now has a 8% win ratio w/him...
did a lot better with nina, although i'm being generous... 25% is about my win ratio right now. about 4:16 i would say.
didn't bother w/my devil jin card
still, it was fun enough playing somebody instead of the cpu... strange though... the person i played was from out of state.
i should learn bryan and create a card w/him.

come to think about it, how does the home court advantage favor in the nba finals? let's not even think about how it's playing out this year; i'm thinking about how it works for all around; the nba finals set is a lot more different than the other best-of-7 series on the road there:
top seed: 2 games, then lower seed: 2 games, then top seed 1 game, lower seed 1 game, then top seed 1 game.
but in the finals:
2 games @west, followed by three games @east, then 2 games @west.
just looking at this, it would seem that statistics favor the west, due to the game 7, esp if games go back and forth. but wait! the east has THREE straight games at home! in the middle of the set, where they'll have a pretty good idea of how the west plays! if you took just one away game before game 3, you could very well wrap this thing up if you won three straight at home, esp if you seem to play about 200% better @home! that's what the pistons did last year; they surprised the world and won 1 game away, came really close 2nd, but no worries; they went home, and then became one of the first teams to win all 3 games @home and close this thing.
so i'm wondering just how the nba finals matchup favors who. west has the seventh game. but they have to play 3 straight on the road, in the middle of the series, which has the potential to really dent them w/no games to chance. then the east it seems would have 2 chances to get 1 win. on the other hand, if a series is streaky, then the west is favored; y'kno, if games are almost equally won on the road and at home.
granted, home games aren't automatic wins... but then again, if your average road win is by about 5 pts or so, and your home wins are by 20 pts or so...
this weather's so streaky...

i think the espn writers were right on the money when big ben's sportscenter highlight poster on one of the miami heat at the pivotal game 7 was "fear the fro, san antonio..."
11 rebounds, 15 points and 5 blocked shots...
he brought it out last night, and we all know who won... statistics favor the pistons when he brings out the fro...
now detroit ONLY has to win 3 more < /end sarcasm >
but seriously, detroit has 2 more home games, and they can't let any one of them get away; i've been realizing how much important home games are in the playoffs this year, ESPECIALLY when you get closer and closer to the trophy. all the defensive rapes that i've seen and grown to love about detroit have come from their home games. y'kno, the ones where they hold the opponent to less than 80 pts, win by 15+, and bring out darko with 3 minutes to spare... home games aren't exactly free wins, but then again... that home crowd seems to just boost the players' energy.

i'm thinking of creating another blog, so that i can jot down every single case leveled for and against the kjv. so that you're not lost on what i've found. more details later.
except for the kjv research and improvement on lead guitar playing, i STILL don't know what in the world i'm gonna do this summer. yes, sad indeed; i should know by now. well, i'll know in less than 2 weeks i believe.
i have a feeling that these are some of the things i'm gonna have to personally look at in the near future; it apparently doesn't stop w/the kjv issues:
roman catholic church
jesuits
freemasons
zionists
communism
socialism
you see, if all the things i've read are true... then there are MANY antichrists that surround us; and pity that we've never even once considered diving to discover the truth. but don't tell me i'm crazy; cause i'm gonna do the digging for you. pity the fool who makes assumptions and never tries to discover the truth, only going deep within it for 5 min.
never take 5 classes EVER... again...
and if you do, make sure you have microcassettes, 4 about 60 mins for each class, unless if you're in a 2 hour class, in which you have 4 about 90 mins for that type of class. and have em all RIGHT before the quarter even begins, and an ac adapter. and a lot of batteries. plus, you should have a plephora of flashcards already pre-made, so that you just need to write down stuff. etc. basically, be prepared, to go from the get go and don't stop til it ends. which was what i was not. but i'll have all these things and be ready for fall... i just wished i could once say, "i truly learned my mistakes." facts are, i never do.
and in some strange way, i have to thank god for not going to med school; i don't think i could "discover the truth" if i had good grades and got into med school; too little time. heck, the thought of the books i'll have to go through and the arguments i'll have to look at just to find out how canon the kjv is, well, it's very time-consuming.
except for the kjv research and improvement on lead guitar playing, i STILL don't know what in the world i'm gonna do this summer. yes, sad indeed; i should know by now. well, i'll know in less than 2 weeks i believe.
i have a feeling that these are some of the things i'm gonna have to personally look at in the near future; it apparently doesn't stop w/the kjv issues:
roman catholic church
jesuits
freemasons
zionists
communism
socialism

at the time of christ, 3 cities in the roman empire had the most dominant effects on christianity: rome, italy, alexandria, egypt, and antioch, syria.
rome was the capital of the roman empire. it, as today, was the epitome of form, legalism, and tradition. by the very essence of tradition, rome has known to constantly add to the bible. examples? the apocrypha and its 14 books. or the constant traditions that were emphasized such a purgatory or the chanting of the rosary, that are seen in today's roman catholic church. though rome didn't exactly create any corrupt bibles, they took the corrupt versions from alexandria, and added their traditions to them; they used ecclesiastical interpretation. the bible constantly speaks negatively about rome, whom it constantly compares to as babylon.
alexandria, like much of the world today, was the epitome of education; science, scholarship, knowledge. the like-minded minds of Origen dominated these areas. like as now, education and science took away from the Word of God. most biblical corruptions that are seen in the codex sinaiticus(codex aleph), codex vaticanus(codex B), and the septuagint originated from this region. allegorical interpretation were taken at the bible; ie compare what YOU believe as truth to what the bible says. the bible consistently speaks negatively about egypt.
antioch was the origin of early work by the apostles. known for her luxury and cosmopolitan flavor, but also for its incredible trust in the bible. antioch was the only place where the bible was interpretted literally. the "textus receptus" was the products of many copies of scripture that came from here, all in agreement w/each other. as is the masoretic hebrew old testament. the natives of antioch were from Shem, one of the sons of Noah, whom Noah blessed himself(not Japhethities of Europe, and not Hamites of Africa)
i'm eager to post more, but anymore statements, and i would be essentially plagerizing someone else's work: read more here
trust me when i say, this wormhole goes a lot deeper than you think; just saying "you should just read the bible in the original hebrew language or greek if you want THE authentic bible" isn't gonna cut it.

all these predictions of "spurs in 6" is depressing me... no respect for detroit.
i wanna trash talk so that if the pistons surprise everybody once again, i'll look good... but if they lose, i'll just look even more like a loser.
the good thing is that detroit seems to thrive on their underdog status.
i guess i'll have to see the recaps after games 1 and 2 first to make a sound judgment.
note that pistons lost to spurs at the sbc center during the regular season, but it was only by 3 pts.

apparently, some stuff to try next time i play t3 bryan:
ws+1+2: 11 frames, 1~4 guarenteed on hit? it was in ttt and beyond (12+21=33 pts)
1,2 and ws+4: 1~4 guarenteed on hit? might be a range issue
d+3+4; haven't really fooled around w/this low
and oh yea; qcb,2-> 1~4-> f,f+2 is HARD... i should try the tech trap instead; f,f,df+3 instead of f,f+2, since 1~4 knocks them in the air; more damage anyways.
i gotta get down COM throw; it can be buffered outta anything; so maybe next time i'll try df+2, then d,df,d,DF, wait til df+2 ends, then press 1+2 right when bryan starts to crouch; i might not even need to do d,df,d,DF; just df,d,DF

the number 1 play for last night's top 10 on sportscenter was ben wallace slashing and giving one of the heat(sorry jerm, wasn't shaq) a facial... i love the quip at the bottom: "fear the fro, san antonio." number 3 was prince w/the two-hand putback(makes me wonder if that was prince's 1st putback ever... looked sweet... i stood up from eating dinner when i saw that one)
btw, creed's greatest hits is just a flat out awesome cd. i was lucky enough to get it during memorial day weekend at circuit city, when all their cds were only 9.99. came w/a dvd featuring all their music videos and 2 live performances, and the other was a music cd featuring all their number 1 hits(but i wanted "hide" to be on that cd, oh well). i love creed when i was growing up so much; maybe they were why i got so much started on trying to play lead guitar instead of just power chords. their songs were awesome, when everybody else's rock band was punk. at some point, i kinda gave up on creed b/c i was into the "christian rock" stage, but after awhile, you realize most christian rock bands can't play guitar at the mark tremonti level; maybe 12 stones, but they've gone downhill after the 1st album.
although, after listening to alter bridge, if you listen to creed, it feels a bit more shallow; withheld talent. like mark tremonti was holding back his full guitar potential. basically, i can play creed. i canNOT play alter bridge(hope to someday). i still love both bands though, and i'm glad stapp and the others split up; stapp became a christian, and tremonti produced better music; win-win situation.

my bible study leader's a sellout... she's from the bay area, likes the kings, doesn't like the warriors...
you do the math.
but anyways, i like this matchup... too bad i won't be watching too much of it; we have things called "finals" too.
of course, you know who i'll be rooting for...
i'll concede though that spurs have the edge, but it's not a HUGE edge... 6-4 in spurs' favor
both teams play hard on both ends, and both teams have very good balance.
both teams also have truly great coaches.
semi-short rundown:
spurs:
advantages:
+arguably the best power forward in the league; don't even question tim duncan; i love kg, but in the timmy vs kg debate, i stand on the side of timmy.
+two great slashers in the backcourt
+defensively, spurs have one of the best perimeter defenders in the league; bruce bowen is EVERYWHERE, and they have tim duncan
+a stronger, deeper bench
+overall, no "weak player" on this team; i think this is THE deepest team in the league
+a coach w/more championship wins
disadvantages:
-lack of good 3 pt shooters; manu and tony have improved, and to be fair, spurs are good at shooting threes. but they don't seem to be able to be a team that can rain them down at will when they need to; this MIGHT be key to how detroit wins over them, if they get their 4th ring
-main shot creators on this team are duncan, parker, and maybe manu
-gregg poppavich looks like his face had a pimple invasion
main key for spurs to win: superb performance from duncan and parker(i love manu, but i think the offense runs a lot more thru parker than manu)
main x-factor: brent barry
pistons:
advantages:
+arguably the best starting 5 in the league on both ends of the court
+two great shooters in the backcourt
+two of the starting 5 can actually light it up beyond the arc consistently, and i'll give you a hint; one of them is NOT rip
+defensively, pistons have ALSO, one of the best perimeter defenders; tayshaun prince just does NOT let you get by him, and wallace times two are a definite help threat
+slightly more athletic starting 5 than the spurs; i think a lotta ppl take the athleticism of the pistons a bit for granted, thinking they use it all on the defensive end, but it's true, these guys can RUN the fastbreak. in fact, i enjoy watching their offense as much as their d. i could be stretching it by saying this as a pistons fan, but i think i've seen more alley-oops done by the pistons in a game than by any other team. pistons, in a lotta ways, end up looking like the kings with hardcore d.
+a coach w/more experience
disadvantages:
-bench... that's not to say detroit's bench isn't bad. but it certainly isn't the deep bench they had last year. they still kept some key pieces, such as lindsey and campbell, and picked up some nice additions like arroyo and mcdice. they just have no overall complete package in one single bench player that shows up every single night. the two they kept from last year are flat-out better defenders and their d always shows up every night, but they can't shoot well. i guess the main key is whether arroyo can play d.
-main shot creators on this team are billups and rip
-larry brown never ever shows any emotion other than "monotonous gameface"
main key for detroit to win: backcourt has to be on FIRE
main x-factor: rasheed
of course, in the keys to win, i didn't say defense, for both teams, but you know it's true. pistons vs spurs w/o d would be like um, kings vs, um, kings. i just highlighted the main offensive key.
this has the potential to turn into an ugly matchup, due to the hardcore d, but i think defensive bball is just as beautiful as well-executed offense. winning bball is always beautiful to me. maybe it's just cause i love the shot block and the hustle play, but i think these things are so underrated and underappreciated by the average fan.
feel free to tell me how far off wrong i am with my rundown...
btw, is it true that tony parker's girlfriend is eva longoria? and i thought she was only rooting for the spurs b/c she was a texas native!
