  1. Why do most Americans suffer from superiority complex? There's an exaggerating/braggart tone in topics similar to these, especially when they flaunt the statistics. There was a time when Britishers were like this too, if you catch my drift.
  2. Undeniably one of the best out there that is! You've put a lot of work in the vehicle itself and its time to appreciate it. Can't afford to press on anything other than 5 star right now. Keep it up.
  3. No, mate, as in the ENB's native version as released by Boris Vorontsov. 0.082 was the older version. 0.163 is the new one. Oh well, never mind...
  4. There are at-least 3 other plugins out which enhance the LCPDFR experience. Just a heads-up: - Wouter's callouts - The Wasteland - Callouts+

    Fuckin' look at this shit

    Guessed it: http://gtapolicemods.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=1548 My all time favorite.

    Old but new

    This would make a nice undercover vehicle with those wheels.
  7. Yeah, they are similar but not the same. The F350 has bolts on all over the circumference of the middle cap which an Expedition don't. I still recommend the Expedition EVI linked to for reference. It has 100% accurate wheels.
  8. I never knew GTA V was being developed as a racing game?
  9. Well, I'll be damned if it comes out to be true. I'll admit I'm bored to death playing the same damn GTA for more than 6 years over and over again. I actually had hopes for V.

    Plane Wreck

    I don't believe it. Liberty City Medic Ambulances can't fly.... yet.

    Homicide

    The police are there to arrest the guy who made fun of Newton's laws and dared defy gravity.

    They're dead now

    "There's been a big scare and you can't go around the bridges so good". *Notices Luis is standing on a bridge. LOL. Classic.
  14. I see where you're coming from, but as you can see I have my own reasons for believe what I do. It would be like me recommending you to join theist classes (if there were any). You're again confusing the fact that I gave references of movies since that would be easier to explain as most people do watch movies and that is the only common thing between you and me I can think of, with basing views off of movies. Sure, medical science is a subject which needs to be studied at macro as well as micro levels to fully understand it, but the same cannot be said about this topic. There is an unusual simplicity to it. I don't remember anyone told me or wrote that one had to research or read heavy books to understand God. So, medical science is, IMO, a bad example to compare this situation with. Pfft... kinda explains why almost every other Joe around the corner can lecture you good and proper on spirituality. NO DEGREES NEEDED lmfao. Ironic. With that said, I better unfollow this topic. Its gone way off-topic since my first comment but I was replying to the thread for the sole reason because initially, a moderator himself was involved. Now, I'm not so sure. Other than that, I have been engaged in debates similar to these with theists and from first hand experience, they have proved to be nothing but fruitless everytime since usually, the participants do not share at least a single common ground for these discussions. Thiests use God as the basis of discussion and atheists tend to turn to logics for it. And unless people start to understand that God is NOT a replacement for logic, these debates have always been and will always be left unconcluded.
  15. I get it. However, we live in the practical world and y'know most people, as they haven't attended these classes, don't really give a shit or simply do not have the insights that these classes would provide. And since I rarely bump into extremists leading to my involvement in a heated debate/argument, the need-to-know about something which I have my own opinion for (negative, mostly) does not arise. I know things about my own religion (obviously; and I'm not gonna discuss it here for obvious reasons) and I do not believe that others would be based on any different idea. Some people might have mistaken me for something I am not, hence the clarification: I am not a 'God-hater'. Many people, when learn the fact that I am an atheist, automatically assume that I'm a God-hater. However, it is simply not true. Atheists are NOT a breed who completely condemn the idea of God and bash around everybody who believe in God. As a matter of fact, I, personally, do not hesitate to go along with my friends and family to the holy place of God, namely churches and temples and/or participating in the rituals when politely/casually asked to. For me, its just like your little daughter sets up a toy home and invite you in for a tea presenting it to you in her little plastic cup which is filled with water and you pretend to drink it and make her happy. Its kind of like that. Since I do not believe in existence of God, I am counted as an atheist. However, its not true that I hate/avoid going to churches and such or rain hell over theists just because they follow God. Everyone has a right to opinion and I respect the fact. But if you ask me, I, personally would deny the existence of God. I'll be brutally honest and say I haven't ever experienced God anywhere near me or communicating with me, neither has it ever occurred to me to remember him when I've been in the most heart-pounding or life-threatening situations of my life, as one would normally do. Even as I grew up, I took all the God and church-thing for granted and never ever really paid any attention to it until I was old enough to ponder over and question his existence.
  16. I'm using movies as a reference because its easier. Just like theists use their holy books as reference. There's a difference between basing beliefs off of a movie and using it as a reference. In actual life, though, I conclude from my own apprehension and perception. I hope that answers your question about my "weird" brain's modus operandi?
  17. Democracy sounds fancy. And its 'fair'. That is why we're using it now. And this 'democracy' concept is fairly new and young. Otherwise, humans too, just like animals, had one king or one leader who lead the groups of people. THIS method is natural. THIS is what we have as legacy and we cannot change it since its in our blood. This just goes on to show how the need to invent God surfaced as some people just wish for a powerful force who could control them. I know it might sound silly, but I actually agree with a part of what was said in Call Of Duty Advanced Warfare's trailer as I quote: Sure independence means a lot to us. But that is because we humans tend to bore with time. Dynasty method was too old and independence, freedom and liberty were becoming attractive. Thats why democracy was invented. I understand its kind of scary to feel all alone in this vast universe and naturally, most humans have an imaginary friend/caretaker/godfather named God to help feel safe. But until we get rid of the thought that we are one of a kind intelligent species in the entirety of this universe, we'll never be able to get out of this small world we have created for ourselves which confines us to its boundaries and hinders the ability to broaden our view. Y'know, sometimes I read how a plane or car crash accident survivor told his story of how he/she remembered God and was miraculously salvaged by the rescue team. However, I could not open my eyes about the reality unless I saw the movie 'The Grey' and eventually learned about the theory of survivor illusion. SPOILERS FOR MOVIE AHEAD: The movie's end scene shows the protagonist, who happens to be an air-crash survivor now stuck in an uninhabited wilderness of Alaska struggling with fatal weather and hungry wolves, begging to God for his life and then eventually getting desperate, demanding to know why he won't show up even though he worshipped him all his life. Makes one think, only the survivors survive to tell their stories. The ones who are now dead cannot even tell that they, too, prayed to God perhaps more than the ones who survived, but no body ever showed up to rescue them?
  18. Oh really? Thats right. I do not have any respect or decency towards religions. But I have respect or decency towards people's belief in it. At the same time, I am ridiculed by the news such as "Destruction of a church/temple/mosque has hurt the sentiments of christians/hindus/muslims". I can say it out loud. And I'm not ashamed of it at all. If it weren't for freedom of speech, I have a feeling you'd have blown my head off with a shotgun just now. Most of the times scientists fail to solve things pertaining to outer space is because we live on earth and we're used to the atmosphere and the rules of physics on earth. Its not necessary that rules of physics are the same in the rest of the universe. Since we don't know what its like outside our own solar system (let alone nearby galaxies), there is now way we could make accurate predictions about it. Just because science does not have an answer for something does not mean that automatically proves God's existence. That would be like saying that all unsolved murder mysteries had God's hand in it because of their lack of evidence. Don't EVER try to pull that one in a logical discussion (except you're joking, that is). Science does not actually even bother explaining religions or affiliating itself with since its a completely man-made thing. Going hand in hand with it is completely out of question.
  19. I believe, you are hinting at me here. If so, would you be kind enough to show me where I "forced" my views on anyone or "hurt" others? And also, what I have, as a "radical atheist", in common with ISIS? Because thats vaguely insulting and offensive. If I were to be what you believe I am, I won't have lasted 3 days since I started doing that since there are groups of religious people in this world who tend to start riots in the name of God at the slightest hint that someone is having a different opinion. Thats one more reason why I believe God's invention is a danger to humanity. Y'know, I, for one, blame people who cannot appreciate a healthy debate and rather see it is as an act of oppression against each-other, or against a specific participant.
