I haven't played this game yet, so I don't know what the final boss character is supposed to be like in terms of personality, but I happened to see the sprites for the bosses and discovered this:

Now, doesn't that look like a whiter, cleaner, (maybe even holier?) version of Neo Exdeath?

Interesting...


I know this game is for Wii through WiiWare, and I'm hoping to be able to get it soon so I can play this for myself! It seems like FF4 would be an unlikely title to sequel, but, eh, it's cool.

Oh, and speaking of Final Fantasy 5 and ExDeath, we went to this one church recently that, before the place was built, was cursed because it was where Nero was buried. There was also a walnut tree near his grave. The pope at the time cut it down, and it is often depicted as, out of the cut, demons coming out.

This reminded me of ExDeath's story, because he is made from all the evil that was sealed within a tree in the Forbidden Forest. Hmmm, I wonder if Nero would have returned as a demonic, armored warlock if the pope had let the tree stay there...

Lol! XD

(Posted to get rid of the somewhat gross previous journal)

Alright, here is the game I was talking about before:

All of you should have voted on these three polls (do so if you haven't):

1. [link]
2. [link]
3. [link]

Now then, comment below stating the three you chose. Next, having determined what you are based on those selections, I shall draw you (or one of your OCs) as a combination of the three classes.

Those who chose summoner, include the name of your favorite summon/esper/eidolon. If you chose beastmaster, name your favorite animal. This will help me in making the art more enjoyable for you if I have what you like in it. XD If you wish, you may also name your favorite kind of magic or weapon depending on the kind of class you chose respectively, but you don't have to.

This will be fun! >:3

Sorry for the long journal, but I need to share this. Also, I recommend only people 16 years or older view this, as it contains sexually graphic language, although it is used for medical purposes)

So, I happen to find this in somebody's favorites: and, naturally, I went and looked at what it meant and the comments on it.

Let me say that it was not the poster of the deviation nor was it any commenter that made the statement presented in the title. hat was from a documentary I will describe later.

First off, the procedure is a CHOICE. It's not mandatory or anything like that. If you don't want your son to have a circumcision after birth, fine. No one is going to heckle you for it! DX He can get it remove if he wants to later. Heck, a my friend's husband wasn't circumcised and she didn't complain. Goodness...

As I watched the documentary that was constantly talked about in the comments (namely: Penn & Teller: Circumcision is BULLSH*T!) I did learn about the health benefits of a circumcision:

1. Prevention of severe urinary tract infection

2. during intercourse, the foreskin my get torn (or have little tears on it due to it's delicacy)

3. Less likely to get STDs.

4. 2-7x less likely to get AIDS

Now, of course, Penn and Teller just HAD to talk about condoms preventing the last two, but you know me when it comes to condoms, so screw that.

What really grinds my gears is the comment made by a choking-up Linda Otis:

"It's the most brutal thing I've ever seen in my life"

Oh really? Lady, watch a fetus get ripped apart by a doctor and thrown into the trash, and THEN tell me that it's more brutal than cutting a little bit of penal skin off.

"Even though the infant feels this pain, (the baby) recovers very quickly" - Dr. Ed (Can't really hear the last name), pediatrician.

Geez, at least it doesn't frickin DIE! DX It's amusing to see people say "It's cruel to the child because of the pain and trauma", yet they ignore a woman who has post abortion syndrome and the pain of the fetus.

"It's a crime! It's a sex crime!", says Marylin Marlos, director of the National Organization of Circumcision Information Research Centers (NOCIR). (Wow, people waste time on this crap? How about a cure for cancer?)

First off, they ASK YOU FIRST if you want the circumcision done. Again, it's hilarious how these people talk about a baby's rights and how brutual it is, but these individuals are most likely the same people who advocate abortion and fetal destruction. It's all fun and games until someone get's their...foreskin cut?

"Why are we allowing this traumatic, painful, unnecessary, brutal surgery to be done to our babies" - The pro-life view on abortion, and Marylin Marlos' view on circumcision...

"Studies show that the nervous system (of a baby) is hyper developed! They feel MORE pain than adults do" - Mark Reese, retarded physician. (Whoops, I mean, retired physician! Sorry, doc.)

We can prove the doctor wrong by referring back to Dr. Ed's statement:

"Even though the infant feels this pain, (the baby) recovers very quickly"

Now, here's one of the narrator's saying some stupid things:

"What kind of nut would be against sexual pleasure?"

Well, sorry for being pro-Kellogg*... And sorry that sex is the only thing on your mind.

"The vast majority of the world knows that there's no reason to circumcise!"

Apparently, you should tell that to the good pediatrician if you're so sure.

One person on the show said that we circumcise because it's an aesthetic reason. Uh, a majority of people who get circumcisions do it for religious reasons, not because it's a norm.

"Babies don't get to choose" - pro-life argument against abortion, and...the narrator's statement against circumcision.

"I am angry at doctors who like to play with baby boy's penises and cut 'em off" - Wayne Griffith, co-founder of National Organization of Restoring Men. (NORM)

Hey, that spells NORM, which is what these people are sick of hearing when someone says circumcisions are the norm. Interesting... Basically, they restore foreskin. We have face jobs, boob jobs, and, now, foreskin jobs. Lovely...

"There was one time when I mentioned to the guys in gym class that I was uncircumcised." - Dylan, interviewed hisband-to-be.

Why the f*** would you talk about your dick to people other than your doctor or family? He continues on to say that when he was ever with a girl, he'd pull it back so she wouldn't know. Yep, just another guy worrying about his dick and performance instead of making a good impression on a woman and treating her well. Typical...

"But for your whole life you've been pulling your foreskin back to hide it, so why not circumcise your son?" - Dylan's wife, Misty, using logic.

I think I love this woman...

One lawyer (who is a Harvard law graduate. Go figure...) actually is involved in a multi million dollar industry that handles cases of foreskin useage. Yeah, just like aborted babies, foreskin is sometimes used for research (probably stem-cell research, which would save a few babies from abortion), making insulin, treatments for burn victims and cosmetics. (Yeah, this is typical of an ambulance chaser...)

A previously interviewed doctor also argued that circumcision makes your penis smaller. (Because, guys, it's all about the size of your penis, not the size of your heart) apparently, many people sue doctors who circumcise them (even though it's the parents who ask for it to be done, so it's their fault) and win money. (Because trying murderers and rapists is of too little importance to be bothered with)

The person who sued also has a bumper sticker that says "circumcision - where sex and violence meet". That's weird, I thought RAPE was when sex and violence met? Huh, I guess it's not that big of a deal then...

I could go on and on with ridiculous quotes, so I'll just end it here by saying this:

When arguing about the facts and the myths, one thing remained clear - practice safe sex. *cough* promiscuity *cough* The show is biased, as they barely show evidence for anything (they only showed actual documents and statements a few times during the whole thing and petty much sided with the anti-circumcision people, barely interviewing individuals who were pro-circumcision). Also, the major reasons they provided for not getting a circumcision is because sex is better. To quote one woman from the show - "It's like having sex with a broomstick" (Yeah, she would know, I bet...)

Also, I love how the "final thoughts" were just a collection of screwball statements from the anti-circumcision peeps... Real cute, guys.

-------------------

One last thing, people tell you that circumcision makes you less of a man. (and I thought cowardice, spousal abuse and rape made you less of a man. guess I was wrong about THAT too) Well, I am circumcised and I don't feel any less of a man. Why? Because there is more to me than my penis! D< I know that there are more important things out there other than my sex organs! These people need to figure that out too.

I will not post a link to the video as it contains graphic nudity. Look for it if you want to see it so badly. I posted the title in the journal, and below in the Mood area, so google it if you wish.

My apologies for the rant and revealing something that really wasn't anyone's business... Sorry bout that.

Gordon Bloyer does an interesting talk on the philosophy of abortion and the Liberal views on it.
