Hi Soyburg,

4D Ultrasound is a technique that takes three-dimensional ultrasound images and adds the element of time to the process resulting in an animation. Of course Tim's wallpaper is only 2D. I had a look at that website aswell. The people behind that site must be extremely narrow-minded.

No I think the point is that the ideas on the site you refer to seem a bit extreme. I see quite a few parallels with other fundamentalist religious organisations like the Taleban: both are anti-gay, anti-abortion, anti-evolution, anti-separation-of-state-and-church and anti-free-media and no doubt many more parallels can be found.
I think that if you support the ideas of this kind of organisation you have no right to complain about China violating the right to religious freedom. Shame on you.

My guess is that's where he "found Christ" in the first place going by some of his previous comments that are hinting at having rage problems, needing rescue from pornography etc. etc. I wouldn't be surprised if he sees posting these wallpapers as a form of doing penance for some earlier sins, to avoid frying in hell.

how people who probably preach tolerance also believe that it only applies to them.
I see wallpapers that abound in pagan symbolism and satanic themes, and nobody gripes. Let some christian state their beliefs, and ppl come unwound.

I agree that the design has nothing to do with KDE, but it's hardly the only such wallpaper here.

Ease up on the guy; freedom and choice is wonderful. That's why we love KDE and the Free operating systems that it runs on. If the wallpaper offends, there are many others to look at.

Very well put, Brandybuck.

You may be familiar with Ravi Zacharias, the Christian apologist who was born in India. He's tremendous. I listen to him on a fairly frequent basis...and one day he was talking about a conversation he had with someone arguing for postmodernism and it's related thought system.

Here's an excerpt:

"As the professor waxed eloquent and expoounded on the law of non-contradiction, he eventually drew to his conclusion: "this [either/or] logic is a Western way of looking at reality. The real problem is that you are seeking...a contradiction as a westerner when you should be approaching it as an Easterner. The both/and is the Eastern way of viewing reality."
After he belabored these two ideas on either/or and both/and for some time...I finally asked if I could interrupt his unpunctuated train of thought and raise one question...I said, "Sir, are you telling me that when I am studying Hinduism I either use the both/and or nothing else?
There was a pin-drop silence for what seemed an eternity. I repeated my question: "Are you telling me that when I am studying Hinduism I either use the both/and or nothing else? Have I got that right?"
He threw his head back and said, "The either/or does seem to emerge, doesn't it?" "Indeed, it does emerge," I said. "And as a matter of fact, even in India we look both ways before we cross the street -- it is either the bus, or me, not the both of us."

So, Brandybuck, you can see how "Tolerance" wants to say "everything is ok" UNTIL you disagree with it. They literally want to have it both ways...."Everything is equally true...except believing that all things aren't equally true". The dogma that there is no ultimate truth becomes the ultimate truth, and to deny it is the unpardonable sin.

Thanks for the input!

Tolerance does not mean believing all viewpoints to be equally valid. Rather, tolerance is a belief that living together in harmony takes precedence over other beliefs that may be in conflict. Thus, it is not fundamentally different from other belief systems, it just has different priorities.

Consider: In the United States, we have freedom of religion. There is an inherent contradiction in that idea, for evangelical religions like Christianity and Islam anyway. In an evangelical religion, you are supposed to convert (it has been watered down over the ages) those who do not believe. However, that works against the idea of diverse people living together in harmony, as history has shown us. To resolve this conflict, the founding fathers essentially asserted that the principle of harmony (the freedom) takes precedence over religion. Thus, you can practice whatever religion you want, as long as you do not infringe on the freedoms of others --- religion is secondary to freedom.

Now, you can see why it is not a contradiction for a tolerant person to disagree with others. Tolerance simply means putting the principle of harmony above certain other principles. It does not mean putting that principle above all else. For example, in the United States, we are not tolerant of murderers. Why? Because our principle of tolerance is secondary to our belief in the sanctity of human life.

This comes back to why supposedly tolerant people are intolerant of organizations like faith2action. People like those attack beliefs that this country holds even more highly than tolerance, namely freedom and equality. In this way, tolerant people are no different, in principle, than radical Islamists who preach hatred against the infidels. Rather, tolerant people are merely willing to put up with a larger number of differences in the interest of harmony.

It's not the wallpaper that I am offended by. I am offended by Tim's tendency to deny the last 200 years of science. And in the case of this particular wallpaper it's the organization he credits the picture to that offends me. You may hold a different opinion, but please visit their website and read a few of their articles about women, family, evolution, gay marriages, separation of state and church, ... Maybe then you'll get a notion about the kind of tolerance that these people (and I see Tim in that corner) are preaching.

Tolerance is all nice and good. But I really don't like tolerance to be exploited by people who have little tolerance for different concepts of life. Does that make me intolerant?

Actually I think it has more to do with this pervert more than anything else. Sure there are other non-kde wallpapers, but this dweeb scams some image off the web runs it through some gimp script and adds a bloody god-related quote about once a day if not more often. No thought, no creativity; go figure. There is nothing artistic or useful in this, hence the choice of pervert to describe him; he a plagarist and a bad one at that.

It's not as amazing as you think, I think. I'd bash any satanistic or pagan wallpapers as well, but the only other quasi-religious wallpapers I've seen here were a parody of these, so I consider it satire, not pushing belief. And even there, I for one usually remark that they're crappy.

I don't feel too strong about christian wallpapers. It's more the combination of the crappy art, the crappy message and the attitude of the author (Take a look at his signature and the dumb and insulting 'test' it links to) that makes me crazy. And if he's allowed to say that science is a joke and only fools would believe that humans behave other than coke cans, then I claim the right to say what I think about his stuff.

I have to assume that you answered to my post and by accident chose the wrong hyperlink. You appear today in this forum but unlike Tim I am not inclined to think that you therefore are him.

Are you not exactly what you don't like? If you can't tolerate Timbrown527's wallpapers becasue it's a different concept of life?

What makes you think that I don't tolerate Tim? Please quote. There's an FAQ on the net. It's called "learn to quote". Just google and thou shalt find it.

What do you mean by the last 200 years of science?

Tim frequently says that the multitudes of organisms didn't evolve but were made by some guy called god. I have to applaud him for not yet having said that it all happened in 7 days.

I'm not saying I agree with timbrown527, but I would be hard pressed to say the proof exists there is no god and timbrown527 is wrong.

Please get the facts right. I never mentioned having proof of the non-existence of god. Please quote me if you think I did. I always said that I have yet to see proof of god. If you don't get the difference, I can't help you. Nonetheless, Tim has as of yet not produced any proof of god. Which makes god a topic for belief but not for fact or knowledge. That is how science works. Show me the facts and it is scientific. If you say that I can not proof the non-existence of god, then you are right, but it is still not scientific. That's all I am saying. Tim likes to put god forward as a fact while I am merely saying that a fact needs a proof. Which he can't produce. I am getting so tired of this...

Another thing I would ask is, why are you so hostile to timbrown527 and christian concepts?

Am I hostile? I think not. Please quote me. Otherwise I have to assume that this is just your gut feeling, which is then only based on a subjective appraisal of the facts and not the facts themselves. Which makes you a prejudicial person.

Do they not have the same right as human beings to experess their opinions and idea's?

You make it sound as if christians were no human beings. Which is not very nice. You seem very intolerant. Getting back to your question: I think that everyone should be allowed to say everything. In an ideal world, that is. On the other hand, if I insult someone on national tv, can he sue me and win? Yes he can. Why is that? Because one's freedom ends where another person's freedom begins. That is my definition of tolerance. You are free to say or write anything as long as it doesn't hurt anyone else. And I will back it and fight for your right to do so.

Let's imagine I put up a wallpaper of Osama bin Ladin here. Would it hurt the feelings of the relatives of the people who have suffered from his terrorist operations? I think so. I wouldn't want that here, because that is where my tolerance ends, because it hurts someone.

Let's imagine I put up a wallpaper of a B-52 here. Would it hurt the feelings of the relatives of the Afghan civilians that were killed in Operation Enduring Freedom? I think so. That's why I wouldn't want it here.

Let's imagine I put up a wallpaper of Jesus shagging a sheep. Would it hurt the feelings of the people who choose to believe in Jesus? You bet it would. That's why I am not doing it. I want to stress the fact that there are things which make other people angry or hurt their feelings.

Tolerance is saying "it does offend me, but I think free speech is more important than my feelings." Tim doesn't realize that he is hurting lots of feelings. And he doesn't seem to wonder about where the expansion of his personal freedom starts to hurt the feelings of other people. There were several posters who actually put their hurt into words.

So if he is taking it for granted that he can post and say anything he likes, shouldn't I assume the same? Why are you picking on me instead of the guy who can not look beyond his cultural context?

If your definition of tolerance is different of mine then please consider the following wallpapers:

A propaganda picture of a suicide bomber
A picture of a rape
A picture of Kennedy with his brains out
A propaganda picture of Kim Yong Il (or whatever his name may be)
A propaganda picture of a guy being cruzified
A propaganda picture of Hitler or a swastika
A picture of Stalin

All of them are bound to hurt someone's feelings. I guess that is why we see so little of them. If your tolerance is boundless, then I bow to you and praise you, but most people are not that detached from their cultural life yet. Have pity on them and me and understand that some things are bound to provoke a reaction. My guess is that Tim is here merely for the sake of provoking a reation. And that, I don't like. Not in a forum which is dedicated to eye candy. You registered here today and your opinion is a contribution to the everchanging, ever different structure of this website. Please think about the people who have lived happily without Tim for a couple of years. And think about me who thinks that he is taking it a bit too far. It's in my opinion not intolerance, rather homedefense.

Tim, I wanted to respond to your posting and to Soyburg's. To Soyburg: Science isn't all it's cracked up to be. Just 150 years ago doctors thought "bleeding" was a way to help the sick, yet know science shows otherwise. The lack of blood cells icreased the chance of infection spreading and posible death. I would conclude (without going farther due to lack of time) that science isn't always right. I disagree with tolerance stopping at hurting someone's feelings. Physically hurting is one thing, but words are just words, and wallpapers are just 1' & 0's. If you don't like them don't download them. From your postings I conclude you have the problem. You can't see past "your cultural context" which consists of your feelings. If someone wants to post an Osama bin Laden wallpaper, so be it. I won't download is, but that person has the right to do that. That may be eye candy for someone. Should that be stopped. Not at all. I did register yesterday, because I wanted to repond t this post. As I have seen in other postings you try to insult the itelligence of anyone who disagrees with you. How childish! Are you an adolecent? You logic seems to point that way. To Tim: From this and other postings you do make some good points. The oblisks of shalamancer (sp?) post an account from the old testament, which is an event fo event recording of a battle and offerings to the kings of a nation. That is not biblical text, however that can not be over looked. What agenda did a non-jewish nation and king have to promote god? None that I can find. I can't speak for the feelings of everyone, but this is what I feel. Tim, you have the right to post whatever you deem to be art. Soyburg, you have the right to "not" download so called art you don't like. "I think that everyone should be allowed to say everything. In an ideal world, that is". Well, not quoting you Soyburg, what keeps it from being a perfect world is people with this mentality. I have not seen tim be hostile to anyone in anything he has posted. All he does is state what he believes. It seems you believe you believe different. Maybe it's time to agree to disagree?

Thanks, noname. You're right; many times there are what we call "extra-biblical" accounts (accounts outside the bible) to historical events. That doesn't conflict with scripture but rather supports it's historicity, which is key to knowing that the Bible is reliable -- speaking accurately about the things on which it speaks.

There are other writings that give account of Noah's flood and other events as well -- again butressing the reliability of Scripture.

Again, noname, thanks.

Soyburg, you said, "Nonetheless, Tim has as of yet not produced any proof of god. Which makes god a topic for belief but not for fact or knowledge. That is how science works. Show me the facts and it is scientific. If you say that I can not proof the non-existence of god, then you are right, but it is still not scientific. That's all I am saying."

I know I'm not addressing your main point here, which is not unfounded, but you apparently assert that the "theory" of evolution IS scientific in the following :

"'What do you mean by the last 200 years of science? '

Tim frequently says that the multitudes of organisms didn't evolve but were made by some guy called god. I have to applaud him for not yet having said that it all happened in 7 days."

You call evolution scientific? As I see it, you're as good as calling it fact. Just a question, but can you PROVE that evolution happened? Neither you, nor anyone alive was there when it happened. You can say all you want about the background radiation from the Big Bang, or the DNA similarities between us and the apes. None of this constitutes proof; the scientific method does not apply, since evolution cannot be repeated NOR OBSERVED (think about all the missing links that were discredited, like Nebraska man). People believe evolution -- it is not factually provable.

And that is their choice. However, don't go telling me evolution is science.

I'm not intending to flame or offend and I'm sorry if I have. It just irks me when "tolerant" people put this subtle intolerance into their language -- someone is ignoring science to believe in God. What rubbish.

"Fearfully Made"

KDE Wallpaper 1280x1024

Quoted from Psalm 139:13 and 14. The graphic was used by the permission of Faith2Action, and is a 4D sonogram of a 34 week old preborn child. Awesome! Done in the Gimp.

Added second. Modified second.

Hm

Could you please explain what 4D means? Also I appreciate that you have given due credit to the source of the image. I went to their website. Did you know that they are anti-gay, anti-abortion, anti-evolution, anti-separation-of-state-and-church and anti-free-media?

Re: Hm

Hi Soyburg, 4D Ultrasound is a technique that takes three-dimensional ultrasound images and adds the element of time to the process resulting in an animation. Of course Tim's wallpaper is only 2D. I had a look at that website aswell. The people behind that site must be extremely narrow-minded.

Re: Hm

*Did you know that they are anti-gay, anti-abortion, anti-evolution, anti-separation-of-state-and-church and anti-free-media?* ...what's your point?

Re: Re: Hm

Re: Re: Hm

oops..typo. That last part should be: I would have thought the point would be blatantly obvious to someone complaining about people in China not being free to practice their religion?

Re: Re: Hm

The point is that they're bad people.

Re: Re: Re: Hm

Nope. Not about *the person*. It's about the behavior, which is a choice. God loves sinners such as me, but hates their sin, including mine. He "commands all men everywhere to repent". -- Tim

Re: Re: Re: Re: Hm

I think he meant the people behind the website.

I'm glad you asked. If you check any of those types of paper you mentioned, you will find I have NEVER posted anything on them. You see, I choose to pass that stuff by. Tim

Query the masses

I would like to know: Who out there believes there is a god? or a satan? What proof do they have? Just curious to know

just my 2 cents

Re: just my 2 cents

I wouldn't say it defeats the purpose. One can sit on the train tracks and say "I don't believe in trains", but soon the train comes along and kills them. Was proof defeating the purpose?

Re: Re: just my 2 cents

If tracks and trains is your allegory, then please show me a picture of the train.

Re: Query the masses

I believe in god (mine looks mostly like the Jewish/Christian/Muslim one) but I don't practice an organized religion.

It's amazing...

Intolerance of Christianity is the last remaining intolerance tolerated by the tolerance police.

Sure, I have the problem. Can't look beyond my cultural context. Am childish and/or adolescent. Yes, I keep the world from being perfect. That's me. I can't even spell tolerance.

Re: Re: Re: tolerence

Oh well... 6 days then. Saying *fini* is all polite and nice. But you see, there are lots of other comments around. If mine offend you, then just look at some others and find something to your taste. Thanks for keeping kde-look.org an open website.

Re: Re: Re: tolerenc

"the evidences for Christianity is not science but history and archaeology" Hmmmm...i think you just insulted a lot of historians and archeologists by implying they are not scientists. And there is a lot of the archeologic evidence that raises questions about the creation in 6 days....

Re: Re: Re: Re: tolerenc

While agreeing with the rest of your post, I'd like to say that it is mostly geological and palaeontological evidence that tell us about the early earth. Archaeology starts whith the appearance of human beings which (hope I get it right this time) happened on Saturday, according to the bible.
