Rek Jaiga Crimson Path 34	Posted - 2011.09.27 05:48:00 - [1] - Quote Rek appears in a holovid response. While he barely holds a straight face due to his overly formal wording, he is quite serious in theological intent Sometimes it's simple things like carnal pleasure that truly bring us closer to our natural state, and in such a state more receptive of The Omnipresent's silent wisdom. Why deny such a thing? To create new life is to physically emulate the Creator...it is surely a sacred act! laughs a bit Oh, and sex is good, from what I've heard. Keeps people sane.

It certainly is and thus should be treated with the respect and dignity that a sacred act affords. Also, to say that sex is equal to the act of creating new life is a bit awry given the realities of how sex is practiced nowadays: The act of pious chastity is exactly that which is bringing the act of procreation back into the sacred realm, as it means treating it not as a mere means to release stress and pass-time activity. Also, as the careful reader might have noticed, the chastity is only for the period of service. So long as the act is done in honest love, it's always good. Of course, that agrees with the condition of not being "a mere means to release stress and pass-time activity". And good point, I hadn't noticed the conditions were such that it was only for the period of service. Even so, I do question the efficiency of having a crew who have never experienced the passion of a romantic relationship. Surely the thought of keeping one's husband/wife/significant other/family safe is a superior motivator than mere nationalism. Or perhaps I'm being the hopeless romantic again. Sue me.

Firstly, Rek, you're being more than hopeless - you're being pathetic. On what basis do you claim this? Or shall I call you something and then not bother addressing it at all as well?
Rek Jaiga Crimson Path 37	Posted - 2011.10.03 05:24:00 - [4] - Quote Mebrithiel Ju'wien wrote: Sorry, that sounded harsher than I intended. What I meant was that it's pathetic that you're being a hopeless romantic. Don't let a deluded, stuffy Amarrian with ultra-conservative beliefs make you feel you need to justify yourself. Ah, I see. Apologies if I in turn seemed overly defensive. Mebrithiel Ju'wien wrote: All sex, with good intention, is good natured. Yes.
Rek Jaiga Crimson Path 37	Posted - 2011.10.03 14:09:00 - [5] - Quote Mebrithiel Ju'wien wrote: You weren't there for the BoB/RA war, you don't know! On a more serious note, Amarrian children are taught that Delve is where all the evil people live. We just carry on that tradition with Covenant children till they grow up and start to question why. Then we point out how the Amarr Empire vilified us many years ago and still do to this day. It helps them know who our enemies are. You are Sani Sabik, or Covenant-aligned?

I have many affiliations, but, yes, the Covenant are my closest and I do follow the Sani Sabik tenets very closely. You must be new hun. My corporate history should be the first thing you check Sweeet! See, I totally didn't look at your employment history, Blood Friend.
Rek Jaiga Crimson Path 39	Posted - 2011.10.05 00:14:00 - [7] - Quote Rek appears in a short holovid taking place in his quarters. He wears a huge grin on his face; he is barely able to keep from laughing outright. The Lies of the Theology Council have been exposed! laughs But no, really. Where once Andreus and I disagreed on...just about everything...I find myself agreeing with his evidence and arguments.
Rek Jaiga Crimson Path 39	Posted - 2011.10.05 00:39:00 - [8] - Quote The two situations certainly are mutually exclusive. You're either helping them or you're hindering them with such actions. According to the information that is available to you, the latter seems to be the case.
Rek Jaiga Crimson Path 39	Posted - 2011.10.05 14:22:00 - [9] - Quote Kithrus wrote: All things aside back on topic if I can be so bold as to present that motion, I think the childish nature of the lesser races tenancy to froth and jump all over slavery issues without fixing their own nations issues first is cute. "We screwed your people over, and since you're left with a comparitively tiny section of space we'll continue to laugh at you and screw you over until you somehow magically fix things for yourselves (in spite of our continuing to screw you over). While we're at it, we'll also claim to be superior in every way just to rub salt in the wound; have fun." Kithrus wrote: Amarrs Economy is flawless, we have no poor or needy, everyone has a duty and a place in the world. Till you can challenge this with a better system (which you currently can't) all your arguments ring hallow. "We're the best at stealing everyone else's stuff [notably, labor force], thus we have it all. Until you too have it all, although our stealing your stuff may hinder that, I will ignore your arguments no matter how valid they may be". Did I do it right?
Rek Jaiga Crimson Path 39	Posted - 2011.10.05 14:57:00 - [10] - Quote Kithrus wrote: No. You of all people should know I have no issue with making reparations as long as they are used for what they are meant. I think that's what everyone's been wanting to hear out of you. So essentially you're fine with the Empire giving capital to the Republic, so long as it's not used to build warships?
Rek Jaiga Crimson Path 40	Posted - 2011.10.05 17:11:00 - [11] - Quote Lyn Farel wrote: Here they go again. Aren't you all tired of repeating the exact same things again and again ? It is counterproductive. I suppose it will be talked about until the issue is resolved or eliminated. Until then...surprise! The topic goes on. But thinking of it economically, all capital wears down as it produces goods. The mouth produces talk. Thus with this the mouth tires and begins to grow stiff, forming a permanent scowl. Furthermore, talk is cheap because supply vastly exceeds demand. Hence you are correct Lyn: this is counter-productive.
Rek Jaiga Crimson Path 40	Posted - 2011.10.05 21:21:00 - [12] - Quote Vallek Arkonnis wrote: Quite true. The most important goal above all others is the salvation of souls. And with that I propose this: words, not wars. Modern communications can work wonders when applied correctly.
Rek Jaiga Crimson Path 40	Posted - 2011.10.06 01:44:00 - [13] - Quote Horribly hubristic Holders herald horrifying hatred. So if you insist on holding slaves, be a good Holder at least. 'Nuff said.
Rek Jaiga Crimson Path 40	Posted - 2011.10.06 17:06:00 - [14] - Quote Vallek Arkonnis wrote: Reciprocate what? The hatred in your hearts? That is all you have brought. I'm beginning to think that is all you possess. You miss her point entirely. Key Point wrote: The hatred in your hearts [...] that is all *you* have brought. Incorrect. Her point was that it is not the Matari who have bred hatred in their own hearts, but the actions of the Empire which has done so. After all, it wasn't the Matari who invaded Athra, was it? No, quite the reverse. And in fact, the Elders have cautioned the Matari people to not feel so much hatred towards the Amarr so please do not invoke the "But the Matari culture promotes violence and hatred anyway" crap. It's all there, black-and-white, clear as crystal! As a faction you've won nothing in this argument. YOU LOSE. Good day, sir.
Rek Jaiga Crimson Path 40	Posted - 2011.10.06 18:51:00 - [15] - Quote Vallek Arkonnis wrote: but logically you must see our frustration when we hear "come make peace" only a few lines after calls for our blood. I hyperbolize to an extent, but you get my meaning. And you must understand the frustration of the Matari people when the Amarrians say "we are reforming!" and then continue to raid for slaves. Let us call this situation A, and the situation you described about the calls for blood M. If M is happening, then A must be happening (A causes M) M ----> A But if A were not the case, or ~A... 1) M ----> A 2) ~A C) ~M by modus tollens The solution is clear.
