I feel bad. I like haven't seen a person in about 3 days :upset:. I've been quite sick with diahirrea, not nice. My Dad got me some tablets and I haven't been to the toilet in 6 hours :eek: w00t.

Thank you for sharing :thumb:

SFK: What's your band's name?

StageFright.

And SFK, that sounds like a s[FONT=]h[/FONT]itty day if I ever heard one. Bad luck man. And especially since you said that the dude was a great guitarist as well. Anyways, can you add me to AIM and send me some Pigmy Love Circus and some songs from your band? I mean, you promised. :upset: :cool: :) :thumb: :wave: :naughty: :D

haha dude, I added you last week! I havent seen you on. Add me, SniffinLippy. Im at work and will be on all day up till about 4, then I gotta go to some guitar shops and hang up some signs!!

I guess I was kinda crappy in the site forum now that I look at it. Man, I just get so sick of all the kiddies on here tho. Anyway, it looks like this reward program for great users will prolly fly. I believe the way it will work is a mod from each part of the forum will nominate users in each part, looks like R&M will have alot of people rewarded since we have a ton of killer people here...

Greetings, everyone. Just finished another long, tiring day of university; a full two hours of work. What a hardship.

My day of class is over too...it's 11:40 here :p

Lots of hw though :(

I've got nothing, work-wise, to do tonight. I have an essay in either for the 5th or the 11th, I'm not sure which, but otherwise, that's it. I hope it's the 11th.

I have tons of hw everynight...my teachers are mean :(

I don't have any teachers per se, just lecturers. Three, to be specific, and they're all very cool.

On a different note, I don't suppose you know know much about the seraphim, do you?

Nope, in fact I will even go so far as to say I know nothing about it/them.

The highest choir of angels, God's go-to guys.

Well if anyone can help me, I'd like to know how many of them there are. I can think of 5 - Gabriel, Lucifer, the Metatron, the Omnitron and Michael.

I'd also like to know which at which hand Lucifer and Gabriel each sat, as I can't remember which is which.

This might be a good starting point..."Catholic Dictionary"

(I am writing a paper tied to religion too :p)

Ah, excellent, thanks. I'll probably end up spending rather a lot of time on that site.

As far as I know, Gabriel was the right, and Lucifer was the left. I think there are quite a few seraphim though.

And I have uni for four hours today. Oh no! The worst part is I have to stay around and try and do two assignments in 1 day. Lucky me. :rolleyes:

Yeah, well I think there are supposed to be dozens, if not hundreds, of seraphim, but I was just wondering about the "important" ones. The ones with speaking roles, so to speak.

I got detention for writing seraphim on my homework diary once. Stupid religious school.

Why did that get you detention?

I'm interested in mythology, so I decided to check out some sites about the Seraphim, Bartender. A lot of them are pure religious nonsense, but a few of them have some usable data.

Metatron is the scribe or archivist of Heaven. He is the first angel to sit between the 6th and 7th level of Heaven. He is also said to be the greatest magician of the angels.
(He also has another 100 names that are meant to be him.)

Gabriel is the messenger of God. He is the voice who speaks to many of the people in the Bible, including informing Mary and Joseph of Mary's pregnancy.

Michael is the general of God's armies. He is the one credited with the destruction of the Assyrian army. He is also the angel of retribution. He is also the Angel of Sunday.

Raphael is the angel of Death. He is the one who brought down Sodom and Gomorrah (sp?)

Lucifer was the angel of Music, but was cast out of Heaven. His new name, Satan, is more of a job description. (Satan means adversary)

There are seven of them, but I can't remember the names of the top of my head, and I can't remember the sites I visited because they are all mixed up and I had to glean little bits of info from one and then a bit more from another.

I just found this one though, I haven't browsed all of it, but it seems to be alright.

EDIT: Cassiel is the ruling prince of the 7th Heaven and is also the Angel of Saturday.

Now I understand why it is good to worship Lucifer to make good music :thumb:

[QUOTE=Medopalis]All that stuff really reminds me of The Northern Lights trilogy...man I loved those books (still do). Those are some my favourite books, especially the final one in the trilogy.[/QUOTE]
Which books are those, I have never heard of them :(

Me neither. They sound interesting though.

They're known together as the His Dark Materials trilogy, comprising Northern Lights, The Subtle Knife, and The Amber Spyglass, by Philip Pullman. Very good books. I think they're making a film of them, too, which they'd better not mess up.

Well a lot of that goes against what I'd learned/heard/thought, but thanks. I'll have a look at that site tomorrow, it's getting too late right now.

[QUOTE=zeppelinfan2k3]Now I understand why it is good to worship Lucifer to make good music :thumb:[/QUOTE]

Haha yeah

So, does anyone else here work fast food? I work at the local Jack in the Box.. just a high-school/college job, but its fun and i make pretty decent cash from it.

U.S. election tommarrow. Anyone here old enough to vote? I know I'm not. :upset:

I am voting Kerry.

I work at a Grocery Store, and I am considering quitting. Ill probably work at Taco Bell or something.

I wish I was, I would probably vote Badnarik since Mississippi always goes Republican.

I worked at a grocery store too, not great, but meh.

Bad is an asshole, word on the street.

Vote twice for me :D Mock election at school tommarrow, I'm voting Kerry at that.

Nice new avatar, Zepplinfan.

Oh, and happy 4000th post to Kingofdudes. :D

I'm old enough to vote, but I won't. If I ever did vote, I would vote for Nader.

[QUOTE=Ramsey]I'm old enough to vote, but I won't. If I ever did vote, I would vote for Nader.[/QUOTE]
I would, but I can't stand the thought of possibly risking letting Bush win again.

You do realize Kerry isn't that much better?



If Americans really wanted a true leader, then maybe they'd vote for someone who wasn't rich to begin with. Someone who wasn't pampered all his life, someone who actually suffered/suffers. Of course Nader isn't up to this quota, but he beats the hell out of any president we've had in the past 100 years.


I'm Arab-American for the record.

That's cool, but really my biggest problem with Bush is his frequent and blatant mix of religion in government (ex: Gay marriage, abortion, stem-cell research, Iraq). I think Kerry will be much better policy wise about this. I feel Bush has no regard for our constitution in this regard, because he violates the first amendment like it doesn't exist.

I am Latino-American for the record.

I would vote for Kerry, but I am only 16.

I am tired of Bush's policies, and I'm tired of being part of the world's bully country.

I'm Scottish-Welsh-Swedish-Norwegian-Austrian-German American, btw.

Meh, I've gotten so tired of all these politicians....I wish we'd have a true leader once in a while. I long for a planet that is one whole alliance. (yeah, imagine.)

The world should just unite and appoint me leader. I'd kick so much arse.
