Lobby Guidelines

You've made it through the revolving doors and now you can mingle and mill about. If you feel like spamming, please head down the hall to the right to the RecRoom. But, if you'd like to meet people, chat about nothing in particular, you know...have polite conversation that doesn't seem to fit easily into any of the other rooms, this is the place!

The Lobby is not for serious debates, there are other areas for those types of conversations. It is more for relaxed chatting or discussing things that don't fit elsewhere. Politics, religion and philosophy have their own place on the site

But remember, always play by the rules: here

    Society is more accurately described as a cyborg.

        Organism.

          I say it's like an organ. It attempts to digest whatever garbage is fed into it.

            No.
            Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

              Yes.


              ....There's also a network. I think that's a better model.
              We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore on Christ's behalf: 'Be reconciled to God!!'

                Organism. Machines may run self-diagnostics, but they're usually not self-correcting.

                  On second thought, it's like a pipe organ. Hit the wrong keys and it makes a loud discordant noise. ...Or something like that.
