Movies
Top 5 favorite movies are (in no particular order):
-The Godfather
-Fight Club
-Public Sex (Dogging: A Love Story)
-Se7en
-12 Angry Men
Video Games
-Favorite video game series is Dynasty Warriors, absolutely love the time period and book it is based off of, so obvious reason for why it is my favorite
-Favorite video game is Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8, same reason as my liking of Dynasty Warriors, but this is my favorite because of the complexity of the game, the idea of not only being able to be a leader but also a mere member of a large army, the thinking needed while playing, and the addictiveness and replay value of the game
Reading
My favorite book of all time is Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Based off the Three Kingdom Era (my favorite time period in history), and an absolutely riveting tale.
Romance of the Three Kingdoms
Top 5 favorite people:
1) Pang Tong
-I very much relate to him, so that is
quite obvious
2) Zhuge Liang
-In my opinion, the most underrated
genius ever. It is said that Kong Ming
could match Sun Tzu in War Strategy,
which says something if I do say so
myself. Also, he had some amazing
inventions, which include an assault
vehicle (basically a tank, and this was
around 200 A.D.) and a battle array
that no one has been able to figure out
Some inventions here
3) Wei Yan
-The only negative thing I can say about
the book (Romance of the Three
Kingdoms) is that it makes Wei Yan
seem like a "bad guy" at times, when
in reality he was immensely loyal to
the Shu's cause and Lui Bei. Also,
was very underrated in terms of
intelligence
4) Lu Bu
-An amazing warrior, to say the very
least. But also, is VERY underrated
when it comes to his intelligence. Lu
Bu was very intelligent, however he
was also very confident, causing him
to make rash decisions, giving people
the impression that he was stupid.
5) Sima Yi
-I love him, yet I hate him. Zhuge
Liang's arch rival, and a genius and
psychological master. Was able to
basically outsmart his way into
taking over the army of Wei and
turn it into his own army. You can
thank this man for the Jin Dynasty of
China.
Religious stance
Agnostic-Theist
Political stance
Centrist
Name
You may call me pang for short instead of pangtongshu.
The origin of me name is: Pang Tong was a strategist for a group after the Han dynasty ended. 3 main powers (as well as some other less significant powers) fought for control of the land (China). Those three groups were Wei (lead by Cao Cao) Wu (lead by Sun Jian, then Sun Ce, Then Sun Quan) and Shu (lead by Lui Bei). Pang Tong was the strategist of Shu. So put it together PangTongShu.
Flag
As for my flag...I am not in Germany (nor do I speak German....yet). I changed my flag to Bundesflagge und Handelsflagge because I consider Germany as like my "homeland" for my family is from Germany and I prefer it over the USA.
Clock!
Flags!

Thought you might be interested in the history of how the term agnostic got to be used the way you were using it.
Back about 200 years ago it was thought that one couldn't simply lack belief in a god. It was thought they had to actively disbelieve. The French first used the term atheist to mean lack of belief and it didn't become wide spread in that sense until the early twentieth century. Now about 150 years ago. There was a guy by the name of Tomas Huxley (Darwin's bulldog) He for a time accepted the label by Christians as being atheist. But later he gave it thought and decided he had no knowledge as to God's existence. Believing hat both atheism and theism required a certain gnosis (knowledge) he didn't fit with either. As such he labeled himself agnostic, referring to his lack of knowledge. The term coined in this fashion caught on and stuck to this day and got turned into this false middle ground to atheism and theism.

Ahh well you are forgiven.
Oh congrats on finishing school! That is super excitng. And yay summer! Do you have an plans for the summer? Do you know what you want to take in college? I am sure it will be an interesting experience for you. :D
I've just been keeping on with school and learning about New Zealand and stuff. It's weird that it is winter here though. I can't quite wrap my head around the idea of Winter in July..... O_o

There isn't a middle ground to be in. You either believe or you don't. You can go back and forth between the two many time, but you're going to be holding one of the two.
Think about it this way. I can be playing a video game or I am not playing one. There isn't a middle ground where I'm neither playing one and not playing one.
What you're trying to say is like this,
"Are you playing a video game?"
"no"
"So your not playing a video game?"
"no"
As for the being unsure, not knowing what side of the yes or no question you fall on still doesn't preclude you from being either believing or not. It would just mean you don't know if you do or not. I would default that to atheist as it's not taking a positive claim that there is a god and really that's all that's required to be a theist.

Hey there man! =)
LOL No... I haven't decided to get married while I was away for a while, don't worry. But saying "in-laws" is easier (and shorter) than mentioning "my girlfriend's parents", that's all! =P
As for me being absent, well... I did have some nasty things going on IRL (they still are), which forced me to be inactive for awhile. At least visible, because I've been keeping tabs on the website every single day since.
But now that I'm back, I'm looking forward to try and get the community jumpstarted again. I see Ernie decided to vanish again huh? What else has been going on in the meantime? =)
