Open ended, not anticlimactic. It's only anticlimactic if there's no follow up.

KoiceReloaded:
No it wasn't. Every season was a blast... up until the season finale. What a sh*tfest that was! I took it for granted that the girl will come around, that her memory will be restored, but it never did... poor Chuck. The producers/writers completed copped out on this one. Left a sour taste in my mouth afterwards. Never again.

KoiceReloaded:
As a matter of fact, I do. Every season I'll wait for the show to finish airing, then download/stream the season finale, skip to the end just to eliminate any surprises, then I'll download the complete season and have a blast. Pragmatism 101.

KoiceReloaded:
A kindred spirit! Some people don't get it, but it's us just being simply pragmatic.

ChristoBam:
I used to think this doesn't make sense until I got to watch Chuck with it's mumu ending.. Since then I only watch TV series that has been completed and before I watch I check the last episodes to check for any tragic ending cuz some producers no get sense.

KoiceReloaded:
Jokes on you, I don't do birthdays.

KoiceReloaded:
Seven days of not knowing what happens next? No thanks.

Ihedinobi3:
He made us, so if we are, that is what we ought to be.

However, if He could also become one of us and die for our sins so that we don't have to suffer the Second Death, I don't think I could agree with you.

Beorn:


Then I'll watch it over a period of 5 days, 2 episodes per day, at least no suspense to kill me at any time, and it's still better than 10 weeks and excruciating pains from the cliffhangers.

KoiceReloaded:
We're on the same boat. I abhor cliffhangers.

KoiceReloaded:
I just want them to f**k over that binary backstabber. Season 4 won't end soon enough.

KoiceReloaded:
Knowing the end of a story won't take away the intrigue. You only saw the ending, not the content, remember? A lot of things can happen between a prologue and epilogue. There's no better payoff than knowing the antagonist will get f**ked in the end.

Beorn:
All these stress over an episode when I can expertly avoid the spoilers like I used to, and watch the whole season in two days after it's complete?

I'll rather watch the whole season in two days than live in suspense and anticipation for 10 weeks.

Beorn:
I won't enjoy it watching week after week, wondering what will happen next. I can't stand the suspense.

Beorn:
I was taught a terrible lesson 3 years ago and since then, I've perfected a way to checkmate the spoilers.

1. I know my offline friends that are GoT addicts and I stay away from them after each episode hits the Internet.

2. The noisemakers that updates just about everything on GoT on their Instagram or WhatsApp statuses, I stop reading their statuses.

3. I unfollow the Series thread just like I've unfollowed the GoT thread since January this year to avoid spoilers.

4. I don't make any attempt to download the episodes till the season is done, to avoid the temptation of watching them.


With this precautionary measures, I'm able to dodge the spoilers virus 95% of the time.


I'll unfollow this thread if possible if spoilers are continously dropped here, or learn to skip any GoT mentions on this thread.

I'm sorry to hear that you have a problem with that. That is why we are all here on Earth: to demonstrate whether we trust God and His Way of doing things or whether we think we or someone else can do better than Him.

I, along with all Christians, believe that God always does the right thing. So, if He uses Satan this way, then it is the right thing to do. I have no doubts about that.

Fizzymike1:
I hated it from day one. Use majority of kids not all kids bro

Ihedinobi3:
There is no error here.

Satan often gets special permission from God to harm believers. We see this in the example of Job and King Saul, at least (other examples abound).

In other words, Satan can be a tool in God's Hand for both testing and punishment for His Children. So, both verses are stating the same truth in two different but legitimate ways.

Ihedinobi3:
As I told you in my first post, Jacobean English was not the same as Modern English although they are very similar to each other. Early Modern English used words in a sometimes significantly different way than we do today.

"Lay hold on/upon" generally implies violence. The only exception that I know of is when it is used in a metaphorical way to indicate determination. This is why Paul's words could be translated that way. You should note that the Christian Faith is always depicted like a war. The Lord Jesus Himself put it this way: the Kingdom of Heaven has been suffering violence since the days of John the Baptist, and the violent take it by force. Paul himself called the faith "the good fight" and spoke of "weapons of warfare" and "the whole armour of God".

So, violence is a very good metaphor for our Faith. That is why "lay hold on" is a good expression to translate what he says here. The use here is not proof that the phrase does not imply force or violence. It is actually proof to the contrary.

KoiceReloaded:
A big fan. Waiting for the latest season to end so I can binge it in a day or two.

KoiceReloaded:
I don't think it's masochistic to not want to raise your BP unnecessarily. The ones that would rather prefer not knowing even though they can if they want to are the masochist.

alBHAGDADI:
The sad part is that you are still using corrupt versions to try to explain King James Version. You are confusing yourself by looking for different words e.g seize grasp, to try to explain what lay hold means.

If you could twist lay hold to mean rape, then how come you don't see the verse in Timothy as rape also?

Seize and grasp are severe words which implies force. But lay hold doesn't imply force, it simply means to lay hold or hold. If I lay hold on to my shirt, does that mean I have raped it? If I lay hold onto riches, dies that imy rape? Lay Hold is simply what it is, not rape. Rape was clearly defined in the book of Deutoronomy. You are the one twisting scriptures and saying that they do not say. In other words, you have clearly stated that God was once in support to rape.

Do you agree that God never changes? If yes, how come you believe he now does.t support rape? Can you see how foolish your stance is which is due to your usage of satan.ic transactions? Also, who will marry the lady who gets raped by four men at the same time? Can you see how foolish that judgment that you think says a woman must marry her rapist is? It only shows such judgment never came from God because he's a righteous and wise God. The false teaching only came from Satan and propagated by folks like you.

alBHAGDADI:
Since when did the phrase lay hold become synonymous with rape? Does that mean Paul was telling us to rape eternal life as seen below?

1 Timothy 6:12
Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

KoiceReloaded:
Yeah, that's the name. It's an old movie

KoiceReloaded:
Yeah, I noticed the similarities, but Skeleton Key ain't exactly an original content itself. The plot is essentially a Black Stepford Wives rip off, but with a twist. If Get Out is a rip off of Skeleton Key, then Skeleton Key is a rip off of Blacl Stepford Wives. You know what I think? The plot is not so much a rip off as it's a common horror trope.

KoiceReloaded:
Spoilers don't really bother me. Before I buy a novel, I always skip to the end to know the final outcome.

alBHAGDADI:
Rather, the shame is your for saying my Holy God who is a righteous judge once ordered that rapists should be rewarded with their victims.

You can all those Bible translations older than the Long James Version? You are not only ignorant concerning the
scriptures but also not a student of history. They are all modern versions while the KJV was published in 1611.

Mind you, all those you claim are my fellow Christians aren't Christians at all. No Christian will say his Holy and righteous judge of a Father once supported rape. God never changes.

Do you know why an atheist like you support those so-called Christians? It's because they are operating in the flesh like you and Daddy Freeze and can never understand the scriptures.

Beorn:
Same here. I'll wait till every episode has been aired before binging on it. And I'll do well to stay off the Series thread to avoid the ITKs that would spoil it with relentless vigor.
