Have anyone heard anything about using proxy servers to imitate US IP?
when i bought my us version in the bnet store, i simply switched language version in the shop, if offers your languages but has a choice before throwing it in the basket
edit: you can't change region for d3, it says global, play on any server you want to
There are many sects of Christianity and you are showing yourself to be a moron for thinking that all Christians are alike. The majority of Christians believe in evolution and that the Earth is billions of years old; it's just the crazy and very vocal minority that believes otherwise. Hell, I know some very devout Catholics who teach evolution.
Evolution and religion are completely incompatible. You can't believe both and not lie to yourself on some level.
I do somewhat agree with a lot of the things you're saying, though many people call themselves religious, when under closer inspection, believe almost none of what their religion says.
I believe that Evolution and Creationism is one and the same, Humans changed from their Original Gods-image into what humans are today over billions of years.
And heres something for you...
I believe The earth was made in 10k years... you know why? it says in the bible that 1 earth day - 1000 years in heaven
10000 years = 3650000 days x 1000 = 3.65 Billion EARTH Years OR 10000 Heaven years.. Huh looky there.
It's got to do with the Aussie taxes. I was literally talking with Bashiok about this when I was at Blizzard on Friday.
There is NO TAX applicable on a download (ie preorder from the USA) because it is located on US soil.
And also, Australian tax is set at 10%, as I said before Sixen, just from exchange rates + TAX you are sitting at the same price as in the USA (excluding freight, which is minimal on a box set and non-existant on a download).
As for christians, stop hijack threads, thats my job ... christians are fine ... any type of lobby group, ie any group who tries to enforce their beliefs on others, christian or otherwise, is fucked up.

Radiometric dating puts Earth at 4.54 billion years old. It's fine if you don't believe in radiometric dating, but if that's the case, then don't try to use it to "prove the bible".
If you do believe in radiometric dating, then you're off by a factor of 0.25;
Actually, evolution and Christianity are reconcilable.
Christian Belief: God created Man in his image and created all life on Earth.
Technicality: It is not shown how God does this, meaning a variety of methods are possible.
Scientific Theory: Life evolves through natural selection via random gene mutations and many selection pressures and extinction cycles.
Christian Belief: God intends for most or all things to happen as part of his master plan.
Logical Conclusion: Forcing the hand of evolution by causing extinctions, etc. is a viable method for God to design life on Earth, because effectively all actions leading up to evolution can be attributed to his plan. Isn't this how aliens "play god" in science fiction novels?
There are ways around it though.
You should be able to register a CD key from the US. You just have to get somebody in the US to send you a key and you send them money with paypal.
Worst case you have to start using another b.net account. But that doesn't seem likely.
On the actual subject of the thread (lol):
We silly humans always manage to justify whatever we want. Not just in religion, there it's just the most extreme.
You know, some churches actually embrace science because they believe that anything they discover through experimentation must be part of god's intended truth.

Equivalent to thinking a year lasts 9 months.
Funny that.
I said how long it took the earth to be created not how long the earth has been here, It can be 4.5 billion, that just means that it has been finished for nearly 1 billion years. Finished as in Sustainable to life.
So having religion as a topic in a thread entirely for that is a no no but derailing an already existing thread is the way to go for entertaining religous debates, i see, i see *Takes notes then sits back with some popcorn to watch*

God might exist, but evolution doesn't need her.
God might exist, but the creation of the universe doesn't need her these days either.
Life has only been on the planet for about 2 billion years at max. That's even worse. That's off by a factor of about 45%. That would be just like saying a year is a bit more than 6 months.

Taxes? Alright. Makes sense. 15$ tax is a bit much though.

We call that "God of the gaps".
It's the process of forcing god into ever-decreasing gaps in our knowledge when it comes to how and why we are here.
This leads on to "Well, you can't prove god doesn't exist."
We have a word for that too; "Flying teapot theory". I'll let you guess what that entails.
So I guess I shouldn't have complained ... went down to the game stores ... wait for it ...
Diablo III $99 ($103 USD) Diablo III CE $139 ($143 USD)
Yeah, now blame taxes. </sarcasm>

This has nothing to do with your original topic.
You know, some churches actually embrace science because they believe that anything they discover through experimentation must be part of god's intended truth.
This must be the weird part of sc2mapster. Am I right?

You're going to run out of gaps someday.
Nah, this is just the Eiviyn part of Mapster.
