No, the time vortex is Tau.

Here's what's wrong:

I don't get it. I can't tell the difference between sound overlaid in editing and the sound those apparatuses are supposed to be making.

Thanks for the reference. I am actually legitimately interested in what has to be said on the matter.

but against saying "because you are a sinner, you will be damned."

He's just regenerated. Is it not normal for him to be a little off right after a regeneration?

Ah, and now we arrive at one of the biblical contradictions. We must hold certain acts to be sinful, but doing so requires that we judge those that commit those acts to be sinners. But wait, we aren't supposed to judge others! Thus, we cannot determine if someone is evil or not based on their actions, except that…
