Argument good?

I want to take back the word arguing. many people give me a weird look when I tell them that I love to argue. they sometimes say something like, well at least you know your own short comings. the thing is, I do not see it as a shortcoming. argument is how we better our knowledge. when I argue with someone, I bring some information to the table, and the other person(s) bring their own information and they but heads. some of my arguments are dropped and so are some of my counterparts. this refines our arguments and even adds to them. If my argument is way off, I would like to know, wouldn't you?

what we do not want is a fight, which is what many people think of when you say argument. a fight is when instead of giving an argument you attack the person. Richard Dawkins interviews are often examples of this when he calls those who oppose him stupid, ignorant and many more names. once we start attacking the person instead of the argument, we know that our argument is weak and should probably listen to our counterpart and researching the topics under discussion.

for those who think I am the pot calling the kettle black with that comment about Dawkins, I was not targeting Dawkins himself, but his argument taktiks. I have a friend who is a huge fan of Dawkins, and he even admits that his arguments are to insulting. Again, not against Dawkins, but his argument stile.

The key is respect. Do not raise your voice, do not interrupt, and listen to the others side of the argument. I am currently in two ongoing arguments with people I consider close friends. We have known that we disagree on this topic since we met, and still became friends, and will remain friends after we are dun, weather we come to agree or not.

as christians, proverbs 27:5 says open rebuke is better than secret love, and 27:17 says iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend. I personally like the new king james version of the Bible.
These verses clearly tell us that we need to make sure that we keep each other's wits sharp.

Evolutionists should have no problem with argument. the whole theory is about conflict making the survivors better. when it comes to argument, let it be survival of the fittest.

the two arguments are about evolution V.S. creation and so those are the sides that I have portrayed here.

for the birds.

here are the pictures of me catching a pigeon. I pasted teas to a box trap with a video playing on an I Pad, placed inside. Ah art school, gotta love the assignments.

this is a promo for a board game that I am making.

I maid and animated this, I do not know if you can set it on loop, but if you can it will keep swimming flawlessly.

Interactive Storytelling.

Video games have come a long way from pong. now there are shooting games, fighting games, real time strategy, tern biased, plat former, and so many more, but video games are no longer just a form of mindless entertainment. Video games are a form of telling a story, a story ware the audience is invited to interact with, and even change the outcome entirely. the best of games nowadays do not just have a cool game-play  nor do they stand on awesome graphics and creachers alone  These feachers are just some of the things that make a good game, but for the most part they are not why the game is played. Video games are played for the same reason that some people read books, or watch a move, we like stores. we want to know how the hero killed the dragon, or why the alien race is interested in the outpost, and games allow us to experiences thees things in a way that a move, or a book never can.

Video games take emotional music, intriguing plot and relatable characters, just like a move or a play, the only differences is that they are maid so that the audience can interact with them. The player can decide which person he wants to talk to, what supplies he is going to get before going on a mission, ware she wants to put the bed in the house, or what competition to take her horse to. some games have only one long quest line, ware the hole game is telling one story, others have many quests, usually with one "main" quest, and several "side" quests, in thees games there are several stories being told at the same time. in either case it is the story that will make or break a game.

there are some exceptions to this rule, and thees are the competitive games. thees games do feed off of the game play, but only because they are meant to be played like a sport. in thees games two people or teams will compete against each-other and that is ware thees games get off. That is not to say that thees games are any less valuable, just different. they are like the sports of gaming  and the other games are like the books, moves and plays of gaming.

Now you know that wen someone is playing a game, they are not just sitting there mindlessly staring at a screen, they are partaking in a story that they are making, just as much as witnessing.

here is my final animation at 24 frames per second and 19 fps. the 24 fps was submitted so that it was exactly 4 seconds long, but I think that the 19 fps works better.

they are a representation of how most of the fights I get in with my sister. I favor Espeon, and she favors Umbreon, and wen we wrestle I always come on top, but then my youngest sister comes in and jumps on top.
PS it looks better in the original Quick time video.

check it out, it actually snowed here (Vancouver B.C.). for a day anyway.
