He's a Mr. Saturn.

KAY-O.

Teaflower, the forums are a lot more boring without you.
As for Christianity... JUDAISM ALL THE WAY

I feel as though I've gotten suddenly very bitchy as of late. If I come off as a bitch, I'm sorry. I don't know what's going on.

Shadow, I'm sorry I've been dumping on you so much, but you do need to clean up your act. Or else the way I've been as of late is just the tip of the iceberg... what do you guys honestly think of me?

Current gripe is that I've been so bitchy and I have no clue why.

Got a ton of problems & a bitch ain't one...er...Anyways, no, you're definitely cool, teaflower. One of the better members in my book (and I AM keeping a list! [not really]). Plus, your avys are usually pretty cool, neat or good for teh lulz.

As for Christianity in the Chrono series...idk...I mean, if you look at it that way, then who do Gasch, Hasch & Bosch represent, HUH!?...uh...oh, wait...

Gasch, Hasch, and Bosch? Who the hell are they?

I suggest that Shadow is Dionysus, god of wine. And gays.

Hee hee hee... I'm evil.

I cosplayed as Diyonsus in 6th grade and acted drunk all day. I had no idea he was the god of Gays, though. If I was a god, I would be Pac-Man, the God of video games. He's a greek God... right?  8)

Gasch, Hasch, and Bosch are the japanese names for the Guru's of Zeal (Melchior, Gaspar, and Belthasar).

Of course he is... of course he is...

Pretty sure the god of gays thing is made up. But there is a story where he says he'll have sex with some dude, but needs to go do something else. So he runs off, but when he comes back, the dude is dead. He then takes a little fig tree and shapes it into his penis and gives it to the dead guy.

And that's your freaky little Greek story for the day!  :D

If I were a goddess, I think I would be... something of happiness. I dunno.

Aaah... that makes sense.

I stay away for like a day and yet another thread about Shadow gets started and closed. I think hiddensquire meant well, despite the enormous irony of the thread, but I think the less attention that Shadow draws to himself and that we draw to Shadow the better things will be.

And I think he's been somewhat better lately anyways. Don't you agree Shadow?

The farthest I've delved is that Crono is a manifestation of Jesus Christ, and the game itself is a representation of The Holy Bible, God vs. Satan, God being the Entity and Satan being Lavos. Also, Chrono Cross is the Rapture, showing what events happen once Everyone was "saved", and also showing the themes of false beliefs, etc.

Pretty much every RPG under the sun with the general theme of "good vs. evil" can be interpreted as an allegory to the Bible.

EXAMPLE: FFX - Dude is sent into the world by the "gods", wonders why his father has forsaken him who is coincidentally a "god" to the Spirans, and in the end sacrifices himself for "Sin". His whiny blonde ass should have stayed dead though. It would have made for a better story.

Christianity hurts my head.

Yeah, my theory that Crono = Magus because Crono = Chronos and Magus = Saturnus is kind of crazy.

Dionysos wasn't the god of gays. That conception of the matter didn't exist in ancient Greece.

Oh, but now you're skewing MY mind, and that's NOT the mind of a young person. I'm getting so confused... thanks a lot... just what I needed... :(

I should have read the whole topic first. All the same, homosexuality was hardly uncommon amongst the Greek gods. Zeus and Ganymede, for instance. If anything, it would have been the province of Aphrodite.

But Dionysos was the god of revelry, and in that fashion... yeah, well, he did wield the Thyrsis.

Don't rub it in too much. My fragile spirit is being crushed. Like a Greek vase.

(Nb. even worse than a Classics major... a Classics grad student!)
