@rotshar @Thelastsupersa2 Yes, then we were in agreement from the start. I thought you were arguing with me.

@RandomPe0n @Thelastsupersa2 That's the general idea. Ultimately, when shaping a story, there are always things you discard because they contradict the main plot. This is especially true when it comes to characters, since you don't adapt the story to the characters; the characters adapt to the story.

So all these so called fans who always say "Monty wouldn't of wanted this" when it comes to LGBT content just took another L Monty was always going to have LGBT characters in RWBY #RWBY

@g0Bzwq8BCek5s7M @meganehead1 That’s kind of how the God of the Bible is. He acts out of infinite fullness.

@g0Bzwq8BCek5s7M @meganehead1 The God of the Bible creates and want a relationship with His creation because He has an overflow of love. He cannot abide by evil because He has an overflow of justice. He does not wish to eradicate humans despite our sins because He has an overflow of mercy, etc…

確かに今の日本仏教、熱心の僧侶の方もいるのは承知の上だが、ガチでキリスト教やイスラム教等が布教してきた時どれだけ戦えるのかというのはある。本来、創造神を信奉する宗教など、仏教の説く縁起の理に破折されるべき物だが、RPしたように日本の伝統宗派は「素朴な信仰」に甘えている所がある

@rotshar @Thelastsupersa2 Oh, I get you now. You’re saying the idea is incompatible with how Cinder is in the show, even in the earlier seasons. But that’s… exactly what I said, though?

@RandomPe0n @Thelastsupersa2 I may not have expressed myself well, I'm referring to the case of continuing with the idea that Cinder is close to Summer, which was leaked these days.

@agonizinglyanj @meganehead1 Which is why they didn’t ethnic cleanse them and the Canaanites continued to exist after the war, with many merely living alongside the Hebrews and ending up joining together as one people. Modern descendants of the Hebrews also descend from the same Canaanites they ‘wiped out’.

@agonizinglyanj @meganehead1 What? No. I’m saying God spoke to the Hebrews, a people from the Middle-East’s Iron Age, within the language and culture they understood. And the Hebrews did understand the command to exterminate the Canaanites was merely hyperbolic war rhetoric.

@g0Bzwq8BCek5s7M @meganehead1 I’m sorry, but I don’t quite get what your question is? May I ask you to elaborate a little?

@RandomPe0n @meganehead1 必要ではなく望む？ なんで？

@rotshar @Thelastsupersa2 … But Cinder *isn’t* overprotective of Ruby in V2? In V2, Cinder doesn’t give a shit about Ruby. She’s barely on Cinder’s radar because of having ruined a couple operations of Torchwick, but that’s about it

@RandomPe0n @Thelastsupersa2 A portrayal in volume 2 of Cinder being overprotective of Ruby contradicts what was seen in volume 1, since in that volume Cinder does not hesitate to blow up a considerable area of a building where Ruby is also present.

@g0Bzwq8BCek5s7M @meganehead1 If you’re asking whether God needs this, then no. God doesn’t need for anything. It is the specific kind of relationship He wanted with Abraham and his descendants that needs this highly demanding commitment, but God doesn’t need that relationship. He wants it to exist.

@RandomPe0n @meganehead1 人間ならば普通のことだよ。 ただし、神のレベルで必要なことなのか？

@moriokaorthodox @MrWHOsecond2 Ah ah, yeah. There’s a lot to learn, and even after years of studying Christianity, I still feel like I only understand a piece of it. Thankfully, we’re saved by faith, not by knowledge.

なにしろキリスト教徒自身もまだまだキリスト教のこと分からないのですから。 分かったと思っても、それはまだ「分かった気になっている」だけで、知ったかぶった人の手元からは福音がするりと抜けていくイメージ。 「分かった」と「分からん」の繰り返しを当人たちも生きているような気がします。

@g0Bzwq8BCek5s7M @meganehead1 With respect, I don’t agree with this, not in the context this verse is in. The God of the Bible formed a specific convenant with His people, which is often theologically likened to marriage as an analogy. Is it petty jealousy to expect your spouse to not sleep with others?

@RandomPe0n @meganehead1 それだと「よその神を見るな、おれを見ろ」と強制しているんだから、やはり「嫉妬深い」と言う訳が正しいぜ。

@g0Bzwq8BCek5s7M @meganehead1 Back then, the word jealous was synonymous with zealous, and the verse you’re quoting is God asking His people to be as dedicated to Him as He is promising to be to them. It’s not jealousy in the modern sense, as the word would acquire that meaning only centuries later

「わたしは嫉妬する神である」とかいばっている、自分の感情もコントロールできない未熟な神は心仏界に至るまで「南無妙法蓮華経」と唱えてろ。 そう言ってやる。 ちなみにキリストもイスラムも「全知全能の神はなぜこの世界に悪を作ったか？」と言う問いに答えられない。 全知全能の神などいないんだけどね。 自分の嫉妬も制御できないってことはそういうことだろ？

@agonizinglyanj @meganehead1 Middle-Eastern ancient war rhetorics often claimed to have wiped out the enemy people entirely as hyperbole. If that was literal, the ethnic group in question wouldn’t have kept showing up later, wouldn’t it?

@meganehead1 でも、旧約聖書のエリコの戦いでは神の啓示によって民族を粛清したのでしょ！貴方は民族粛清を肯定する方なんですか？それとも、キリスト教信者は神の啓示を批判できるの？

@otapediatrician I had then gotten a barrage of insults from other westerners as they ‘corrected’ me by insisting that the majority of Japan doesn’t believe in the supernatural and identify as atheists. Seeing Japanese say it’s not true their people is non-religious is… vindicating.

@otapediatrician It’s been a decade since then, but I once commented that while the Japanese may seem atheistic on the surface, Shinto is so embedded in their lives that it’s more that they’re ‘so religious that their religiosity doesn’t seem like such’.

「日本人は無宗教だ」は絶対嘘だが、 「日本人の大半は神道の信者だ」と言うのもなんか違う気がする。まあ究極こう答えるのが一番無難だろうが。 経典みたいなものも無いしな。「日本人の信教では習慣と教義が不可分だ」くらい言えば良いのだろうか。

@rotshar @Thelastsupersa2 … In which way does Cinder’s portrayal in V2 contradicts her portrayal in V1?

@RandomPe0n @Thelastsupersa2 Cinder's portrayal in V2 contradicts the beginning of V1, where she doesn't hesitate to blow up Glynda and Ruby. P.S.: Don't consume fanfixes; there are many good stories out there waiting to be read.

@ApexImperialist @Reddit_Retards ‘Like’ might not be the most accurate word, but Jesus Himself told His followers to remember His work on the cross. I’m pretty sure using crosses as a Christian symbol counts as such

@Reddit_Retards Does Jesus like crosses?

Redditors are RETARDED

@jaYTgameNews Guess I’m on team blue all the way this time

I made the red and blue pill memes choose one #RWBY character to go out with.

@rotshar @Thelastsupersa2 Yeah, if this particular idea hadn’t been discarded before the show even started, Cinder’s characterization in V2 would have been way different. Still, it’s good fuel for AU fics lol.

@Thelastsupersa2 That just shows a discarded idea of an unrequited relationship. I do think Monty would have included LGBTQ+ elements in the show, but he didn't live to see it, and at this point, he wouldn't take those discarded ideas seriously.
