I. Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines
- Allows you to play as many types of Vampires.
- Has many supernatural powers and supernatural beings.
- You can choose to fight with swords, guns, powers, or even fists.
- Multiple endings
- Basically open world, even if maps are small.
II. Fable: The Lost Chapters
- Easily the best of Fable series by far.
- You can fight with bow and arrow, sword, or magical powers some which are good, evil or neutral. There is even magic to slow down time, become bigger...ect.
- Story which is not only beautiful, but told as a fairy tale.
- Multiple endings
- Basically open world
III. Two Worlds
- The game is perfect and good only if you play as a mage. This could be a downside for some.
- Plenty of spells, some which are so broken that boss fights seem too easy.
- The game is actually extremely difficult, if not impossible, if you dont know exactly what you are doing.
- I put it instead of Skyrim and Oblivion because, while these two are more popular, Two Worlds has a much better spell system, much more variety of spells and way better story.
- Dont play unless you play as a mage. Game is way too difficult for a non-mage character.

"Using statistical models, the researchers calculated that exposure to profanity had about the same relationship to aggressive behavior as exposure to violence on TV or in video games. In addition, they found that the more children were exposed to profanity, they more likely they were to use swear words themselves, and those who used profanity were more likely to become aggressive toward others."

Yes, a cat is defined as a type of animal.
Well, thats now a different definition from just "animals".

Cats can be defined as animals that would include dogs which are also animals.
Definition of cats cannot just be "animals". Word "animals" already includes "cats, dogs, rabbits...ect.
If cats were defined as "animals", then cats would be cats, dogs, rabbits...ect.
There is a difference between saying
1. Cats are animals
and
2. Definition of cats is "animals"
The 2 means all animals are cats.

Sticking to the definition makes the statement more accurate.
Well, definitions are the basis upon which arguments are built.
Created:
If you want some philosophical anti tautology example, here it is:
If there is a system of proof for determining what exists and what doesnt exist, then such a system itself must exist. But since such system determines what exists, then such system also must be able to determine its own existence. Such system is false by tautology, because it violates law of identity and own definition, as definition of such a system cannot include more than that system itself. Definition of such a system cannot include the part where system determines if such system exists, because then the definition of a word would use the word it tries to define in the definition of that word.
In math terms:
A = determines that A is in category of "exist"
This claim cannot be true, because if it was true, it would violate law of identity, as here, definition of A includes A but also includes more than A, which is impossible, because then A isnt A. Simply, A in one place is different(greater) than A in other place.
It is like saying "Cats are defined as cats and dogs". It is an impossible definition, because then the definition of cats includes cats and includes more than cats, a logical absurd where cats =/= cats.

Tautology is crucial in logical structure. For example, any logical link between words must already exist in one of those words, if it is to be true by tautology.
For example, saying "Cats are animals" is only true if "animals" by definition already include cats.
So if word "animals" by its own definition includes "cats, dogs, rabbits", then saying that cats are animals is true by tautology, and cannot be false.
Tautology from dictionary:
"a statement that is true by necessity or by virtue of its logical form.
"all logical propositions are reducible to either tautologies or contradictions""
Tautology in simple terms means saying same thing twice in different forms. It is similar to law of identity.
But there is also anti-tautology, or something which is false by tautology.
For example, the claim "Humans are animals".
If word "animals" is defined in such a way to exclude humans in its definition, then saying that humans are animals is false by tautology.
Tautology in causation also works in same way.
Causation is defined as "If one thing exists, then the other thing must exist as its result".
For example, the claim "CO2 causes global warming" can only be true by tautology if definition of CO2 or global warming already includes this causation. And it can include this causation in 3 ways:
1. If main definition includes it (which is then a truism),
2. If it indirectly includes it (in definition of other words used in main definition),
3. If later expanded agreed definition includes it, directly or indirectly.
Tautology depends on how well defined the word is. Not all definitions are equally good and not all definitions include all there is to include. But if, in debate, definitions are agreed upon, then claim is usually true by tautology or false by tautology. There is usually no 3rd option, because definitions either support the claim or they dont. But in case definition is incomplete, there is more space to debate, but this then requires expanding existing definitions. In case of CO2, its main definition would have to be expanded to include causation of global warming, usually done through observation evidence to connect causation to CO2, making them impossible to separate.
The anti tautology can also be applied to causation. For example, definition of CO2 doesnt limit CO2 to Earth, and CO2 which is far away from Earth doesnt cause any global warming on Earth by definition, thus not all CO2 causes global warming.
Sure, this could be considered as focusing too much on details in definitions, but it does help if there are no other ways to attack or defend the topic.

I personally, support both Israel and Palestine, whilst simultaneously not supporting either Israel or Palestine.
Do you use law of identity and law of non-contradiction?
Because "support" used the first time might mean something different than when used second time. But if it has same meaning, then how is that not just a contradiction?
Created:

@Savant
Not always feasible
You can get a strong hint from their other words. Besides, if someone isnt available for debate at all and just says "I oppose Israel" and nothing else, then there is no point of even focusing on their words this much when you cant even debate them or talk to them. There are billions of people out there making all sorts of claims. When someone says that he hates Elon Musk, I dont automatically assume he wants to kill him. So again, if someone just says "I oppose Israel", you cant really make assumptions about what he means.
I'm arguing that they're being unclear and not really making a fair comparison
Again, there is no comparison being made. Israel government is bad. Palestinians in most cases dont deserve to be treated in such a horrible way. So its very fair to say that person opposes Israel's government and supports rights of Palestinians, or at least majority of Palestinians. The only way you can disagree with that statement is if you say that Israel's government isnt bad or that majority of Palestinians dont deserve any rights.

Pope Francis was seen as taking a more progressive stance on LGBTQ+ issues during his papacy. He famously said, "Who am I to judge?"
He was very smart to follow Jesus's true words, as they were written, such as "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone", and "Do not judge, or you will be judged too".

"Libertarianism (from French: libertaire, lit. 'free and egalitarian'; or from Latin: libertas, lit. 'freedom') is a political philosophy that holds freedom, personal sovereignty, and liberty as primary values. Libertarians don't think the US should fund Israel because they don't want the US funding other countries, and that is the only reason. They don't care about dead Gazan children; They just want to save money."

So if someone says "I support Israel but don't support Palestine" or vice versa, how do you know which government they are talking about?
You usually ask them what they mean. Not all people use same meanings of words. If someone says "I support Israel, but not Palestine", I dont automatically assume he holds position that all Palestinian children have no right to exist, or that Palestine should be erased. Likewise, when someone says "I dont support Israel", I dont assume he means all Israel citizens are guilty and should be killed. Again, you are here arguing against a position which I am not sure if anyone even holds on this site, which probably wouldnt even be allowed to debate anyway.

Some people talk about crimes committed by Hamas (the government of Gaza)...
Sure, Hamas commits crimes maybe. Does that mean crimes of Israel's government are justified? Does it mean Israel military has a right to burn and shoot civilians, rape prisoners, many of who are children? Go ahead, put your logic in premises here, so we see what we end up with. The crime isnt a crime if more governments do it?
Created:

@Savant
Then why just say "Israel" and "Palestine" without specification?
Because its obvious? When people talk about these issues, they usually talk of crimes commited by Israel government and military. Sure, those are great part of Israel, but not whole Israel.

I've seen a good number of moderates say they are pro Palestine but anti Israel, meaning pro Palestinian populace but anti Israeli government.
Yes, many people hate government of Israel. No surprise there.
Comparing countries on these terms basically means nothing
Strawman, as the above wasnt even a comparison between two countries, but a position on the Israeli government. Do you think that country = government?
Pretty much every government has committed human rights violations
And this argument proves... what exactly?

At 9:45 AM, Cardinal Kevin Farrell, Camerlengo of the Holy Roman Church, announced the death of Pope Francis from the Casa Santa Marta with these words:
"Dearest brothers and sisters, with deep sorrow I must announce the death of our Holy Father Francis. At 7:35 this morning, the Bishop of Rome, Francis, returned to the house of the Father. His entire life was dedicated to the service of the Lord and of His Church. He taught us to live the values of the Gospel with fidelity, courage, and universal love, especially in favor of the poorest and most marginalized.
With immense gratitude for his example as a true disciple of the Lord Jesus, we commend the soul of Pope Francis to the infinite merciful love of the One and Triune God."

I think you would like Neytiri.
I better use some Tic Tacs just in case I start kissing her. You know I'm automatically attracted to beautiful. I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything.
I moved on her, and I failed. I'll admit it. I did try and fuck her. She was married. And I moved on her very heavily. In fact, I took her out furniture shopping. She wanted to get some furniture. I said, "I will show you where they have some nice furniture." I took her out furniture. I moved on her like a bitch. But I couldn't get there. And she was married. Then all of a sudden I see her, she's now got the big phony tits and everything.

I have no money for drugs, I aint getting laid, and faith makes up for these loses. Besides, there are plenty of theories regarding faith. For example, if you want something a lot, it might even alter reality, especially in case if all minds share some connection between them. It might even affect minds of others. Further, your way of thinking has direct impact on your health, mental health and on your choices. So yeah, religion in worst case helps me a lot, and in best case, grants many of my wishes. I dont really lose anything with religion. Of course, my religion is more about worship of nature and wish granting deities. Christians have it backwards. They fulfill God's wishes and ignore many of their own. The point is to fulfill your wishes, and serve Gods who fulfill greatest number of your wishes.

The Jews should learn lessons from the Holocaust which had Christian’s praying in support of the Holocaust that made it successful.
I am not praying for another Holocaust. I am just praying that Israel is stopped from mindlessly burning civilians alive with bombs, raping and torturing prisoners, beating up Palestinian children... its about time Israel understands that they are not the good guys nor God's favorite.

I pray to Gods to fulfill my desire.
Now, many of you have seen me praying for Kamala to win elections. But Trump won, and many of you probably thought "his prayers dont work".
But here is the thing about magic. Magic gives you what you really want. Not what you think you want right now, but what you actually want. If Kamala won, she would fail like Biden, and the only thing what would be achieved is that Trump wouldnt get power, but then it would look like Trump was right. When Trump won, I was wondering why it happened. But then I realized it. He is going to fail so badly that this is going to be even better than if Kamala won. This way, Trump's biggest defeat will come after his biggest victory. He will ruin both USA and Republicans, and go in history as the worst failure and dumbest president USA ever had. Now that is totally epic!
However, right now, I want for us to focus our magic prayer on stopping Israel. As you know, Israel is tormenting prisoners and using every excuse it can to commit genocide and steal land from Palestine. However, Israel had a military defeat in Palestine, as it failed to achieve its three main goals.
1. Israel failed to destroy Hamas.
2. Israel failed to gain support from the world.
3. Israel failed to free hostages and secure safety of Israel.
These 3 military defeats dont come as a surprise. First, the prayers which go to Palestine are always superior. Israel may have most advanced military on Earth, but military is powerless against magic. Magic affects mainly the mind, which causes Israel to make horrible decisions which cause these military defeats. Even with trillion dollars worth of support from USA, Israel cannot stop itself from making horrible military mistakes, such as fighting war on many fronts, making many enemies, failing to understand how to fight enemy, using failed military tactics such as "eliminating leadership" and wasting countless resources on actions which barely see any benefit.
Now, Israel is about to be stopped completely from harming others with this magical prayer. The more people pray, the better.
Prayer to stop Israel from harming others:
"Nine became the Noththe's Sisters,
And the nine became the eight,
And the eight became the seven,
And the seven became the six,
And the six became the five,
And the five became the four,
And the four became the three,
And the three became the two,
And the two became the one,
And the one became the none.
So Mote It Be!"
God is with us!

That is the same reason the Nazi gave for the Holocaust..that Jews were hiding among the civilian population
Dont Israeli soldiers also hide among civilian population? Also, the international law doesnt allow for killing of civilians even if enemy fighters are near them. And lets not pretend that Israel cares for Palestinian civilians.
