I am Slightly Displeased that a Private Communication was answered Publicly. If I had wanted to Ask Publicly, I would have Asked in the Channel that you were Talking in, or on this Thread. Thusly, I am Slightly Displeased. Sincerely. Synthia 1.
Your own affiliation with the Sani-Sabik aside, the question you posed has been asked by others as well thus I chose to answer it publicly.
"There is nothing done in shadows that is not seen by the Lords eye."
As it was a fairly common question and contained no information of a personal nature I would suggest you lay aside pride... were it not for the fact that you are an artificial construct. Given that fact I am not concerned with what 'displeases" you. |

How about a nice game of Poker instead of quoting your tainted scriptures? I see your god and raise you 5000 rounds of Republic Fleet EMP. Your call.
Such anger, your suffering must be great.. I will not trade insults but i will respond with the same I gave another of your kin with similar hatred :
Quote:You speak with the anger of a child who hates their parents rod refusing to see your own sins. I will not say that anger is unjustified, as many apply that rod too freely and with too much enjoyment of it.
Perhaps God will provide you guidance in the form of a Holder who will help you to stand in the midst of your own suffering.
Amen. |

At the insistence of my instructors* I have contacted the Career Agents at the academy. I am sorely disheartened that there is no Agent for Minestry, which is the path of service I feel most leading towards.
How can I aid others to endure and learn from their own suffering by mining Veldspar or slaughtering crews?
Finally I have decided on Business... For in learning the market one must also learn communication and oratory.
*I have also corrected the flesh, and pray The Lords forgiveness for my sloth in my education. |

In but a few hours I shall have completed my degree of study in business and already can see my instincts were correct. Contracts and negotiations are the heartstrings of New Edan as these drive nearly every other action in the known Galaxy.
Perhaps I can put these skills to use bringing both the Holy Word and my own humble service to the pagans.
Lord willing, Amen. |

What is it that makes a pagan a pagan, sir? The word doesn't translate very well here. I'm apparently a pagan, but the translation dictionary says this involves naked cavorting around fires. And, uh, I don't think I've done that. What am I missing? |

The word "Pagan" means nothing more and nothing less than "of the basic sort." In common usage it means one not of, and not having been before of, The Amarr Faith. Dancing around fires is in no way required, unless that is something you feel a need to do.
It is good that you ask these things, asking is the first step to learning and alieving suffering you may not even have been aware of because you did not... To use your own phrase "know of the wind."

I've never danced around a fire, though I've heard it's fun. I don't think I would though. I'm pretty clumsy and would probably end up tripping into it!
To learn from the wind, One doesn't ask someone who says that they know the winds. One should ask the Rook. |

Maybe the way you commonly use it, but I'm gonna be commonly using it to mean dancing starkers around a fire! |

It is clear that some are so busy worshiping the flesh they do not see the harm and suffering they bring on themselves.
Lord, have mercy on the lost that does not even know it... May they find guidance, humility, and shame.

An unforgivable act:
Earlier today I had the pleasure of meeting with Director Lunarisse Aspenstar to discuss the possibilities of service. I have found her to be a just and righteous woman, a testament to God and His Empire.
I also had the pleasure of meeting a number of those who serve under her guidance, all upstanding persons.
Unfortunately our meeting was interrupted when a blood cultist, who at first tried to give the pretense of being a normal patron of the establishments, attempted to kill her via a crude explosive device implanted in the clones skull.
It was thanks in no small part to the valor and attentiveness of Lunarisses people that no one, not even a bystander, was harmed in the attempt
The clone used in this attempt was of the "soft clone" type and apparently had suffered great harm in her modification into a weapon. Her demeanor and behaviors showing signs of great instability as emotional stress took hold just before the actual attempt on the Directors life.
The Sin of the SaniiSabik is self evident and well known but this particular cultist... Whom I shall not honor with a name.. Is guilty of an even graver sin against God, clones are alive... And prior to activation and neuro transcriptions completely innocent beings.
To craft a clone for the sole purpose of being a weapon, crudely scooping out brain matter to implant an explosive... Is a horror I can only liken to the butchering alive of a child!
May God's justice be swift and mighty, Amen. |

My goodness. I am certainly pleased to hear that Ms. Aspenstar is safe.
I would advise care in the act of witnessing - and doing so for yourself - so publicly. That which is to be between you and God should only be as such.
Do fly safe.
-- Witness Arista Shahni
"I say that even as the holy and the righteous cannot rise beyond the highest which is in each one of you - so the wicked and the weak cannot fall lower than the lowest which is in you also. -áAnd as a single leaf turns not yellow but with the silent knowledge of the whole tree, so the wrong-doer cannot do wrong without the hidden will of you all."

I have seen, already not even a day after Her Holiness passed, many saying they support this or that Heir.
For shame!!! Woe unto you unrepentant and prideful generation!
The trials are not a popularity contest, nor some game to wager on, nor some electoral mockery!
They are tests, built on countless ages of Amarr history to determine which is God's Chosen!
Pledge yourself and your swords to God's Will and God's Chosen!
Anything else is Sin and vanity! |

Hmm, Id argue that to the Houses the Trials are the greatest wager one could make.

No...not a joke. We all know the trials will happen...I'm just trying to make things a little more interesting for the rest of the cluster. I'll go ahead and assume you really wont like the idea of having them broadcast either will you?

You assume incorrectly, and show your extreme ignorance of our culture as well. The trials are Traditionally available for public view. How else can the people have the confidence that it is God's will that a given Heir is Chosen?
We do not view the trials as entertainment, however. For us they are a sacred and important matter.
If games of chance are the only thing that will hold someones interest in a matter with Galaxy wide effects... that person is truly lost.

Respectfully, pilot, it's an absolute flat dead certainty that citizens in the Caldari State by the trillions will be placing wagers on the outcome. To most of these people, the Empire is someplace distant and exotic that they'll probably never see, and the importance of the succession in their own lives is a little obscure, so....
Also, the Caldari as a culture absolutely love betting on things. |

Many people understand that - and most of them have absolutely no chance of affecting the outcome... so why not make some money on it if they can? |

Well seems we are both a bit ignorant of the others culture. Thanks for the datachips....I'll be sure to put them somewhere....where they wont immediately get lost. Hell I might even give them a once over if I'm incredibly bored one day.

A growing sickness...
I cannot help but be perturbed by the .. I'll call it what it is, Resurrectionist Cult growing around The Late Empress.
to quote their own manifesto of faith :
Quote:Q: When will Empress Jamyl return? A: At the end of days, whenever that may be. Have faith in her return, but for now, serve God and Empire.
They claim this is not heretical on the basis that the Theology Council has not declared it so. Ridiculous and fallacious! By such reasoning I could preach that God saves only those who wear tritanium laced robes!.. it's not heretical.. the Theology council has not declared it so!
Even if they have not been so labeled, this teaching is dangerous! In this the age of clones one need only a sample of Her Holiness' DNA to prop up a false leader which this cult's descendants would flock to like meat-stock to the slaughter!
"13 Then Molok the Deceiver sundered the lands and the people suffered floods and plagues conjured by him. Molok turned the people against the sefrim and people who once sang their praise now abhorred them. " - Chapter I of the Epitoth in the Book of Scriptures
