Oh. Man. No offense, but it's kinda weird talking to a homeschooler.
Though yeah, you're right, being a Christian is counter-culture. It used to be part of culture, but I don't think that was true Christianity.
What do you think?

As for that...I'm uncertain. I think it depended on the individual hearts, not the culture as a whole; since culture is the outwelling of the human heart, a "Christian culture" implies that the majority of its dwellers are Christians, and that certainly may have been true in the past. That said, since it's a matter of the heart and a relationship with God, not just doing good stuff, I'm not sure we can know one way or the other, since unfortunately "Christian" is applied by some to mean "people who act humanely".
Certainly, I'd like to believe it was a true relationship with God which caused the outwelling of the heart to form a Christian culture. Sounds nice, no?
BTW, I am a little loopy right now. @_@ I'm starting to get over a sinus infection and not steady on my mental feets.

I see what you mean.
Also, I left school when I was 16, but I couldn't drop out until I was 18, so I had a bit of homeschooling until I was 18. It was a slow process, and it was a teacher that volunteered to do it. I got around 8 credits in those two years.. which is slow. I got really good grades though from homeschooling.
Does homeschooling cost a lot? Did you have a tutor? or was it self-study?

Cost was a matter of books and various supplies, so I suppose it'd be a matter of how much public school tuition costs. My mom taught me, which was interesting at times.XD

Nah. To be completely honest, I knew the answer; I asked the question to continue with the conversation in the way that seemed best to me.Blue wrote:What's the difference between comic books and cartoons?
(yes, this is me poking fun at your question in Kwan's thread. Muahuahuahua)
Are you upset at me for doing that? >_>
Also, seemed best to double check, since people change things like that frequently.

Mmm...tough one. To be honest, I've only really played as Terran and Zerg; never got around to finishing the Protoss campaign outside of the first few missions.delve wrote:<cough> Protoss, Zerg, or Terran?
I prefer the Terrans, I think. I don't like flood armies, when I can avoid it. I prefer, at least ostensibly, a little more thoughtful strategy before I try to overrun people with a flood of troops. >_>

For me, either Terran or Protoss. Just can't get to grips with the Zerg; early surge just isn't my playstyle. I haven't played in ages though.
