Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.14 16:51:00 - [1] Mixed Metaphor reminds people not to associate with either of the two groups of delusional capsuleers pretending to be rogue drones. Feeding their pathetic delusions just makes things worse for them. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.14 22:55:00 - [2] Originally by: Lyn Farel Pardon me Guardian Main, but are you suggesting an alliance with a rogue entity supporting the genocide of Intaki, or even of the Federation citizens, this entity being also shunned by CONCORD and the major empires themselves, including the Amarr ? Sounds about par for the course. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.15 09:47:00 - [3] Originally by: Akrasjel Lanate Yes, but it looks some don't understand that. I have to say that it doesn't really surprise me that the people who are playing into these pathetic delusions the most are Amarrians, though. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.15 12:01:00 - [4] Originally by: Lyn Farel rogue drone activities, and this is confirmed by what some of them pretend to be : infested capsuleers No. Once again, you've got it the wrong way around. Capsuleers, pretending to be rogue drones. Originally by: Lyn Farel Purely for rhetorics. I can't state or affirm anything without the proper knowledge of that thing. And I have for the moment no knowledge of what Entity really is. A number of capsuleers pretending, because they are delusional or stupid, to be rogue drones. Nothing more. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.15 14:08:00 - [5] I cannot, in good faith, provide sensitive information of this kind to any organisation loyal to the Empire, especially one that supports and practices slavery. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.15 14:37:00 - [6] You seem like a fairly reasonable individual (for an Imperial). Why are you trying to reason with Main? ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.15 21:22:00 - [7] Originally by: Diana Kim what the hell am I doing? trying to make a drone to be a philosopher or what? rright, there is the only way... the only... way... DESTROY FEDERAL DEFENCE UNION EXECUTE Hahahaha. So Diana Kim finally admits that the State Protectorate has no chance of success without begging for support from an organisation as utterly delusional as herself. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.15 22:11:00 - [8] Originally by: Texcoyo They have no chance for success either way. "Rogue Drones" or not. So I've heard. I caught rumours that you guys stole victory from Damar et al in Intaki and he didn't take it well. I've also noticed the last two Caldari-held Federal systems are falling to a focused onslaught. Good work, Federal militia! o7 ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.15 22:31:00 - [9] Originally by: Dilaro thagriin Has anyone else noticed how alike Rek and Andreus look... almost .... uncanny. You can tell the difference between us because I'm not the one with the soulless eyes, ashen pallor and inability to blink. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.17 10:00:00 - [10] Originally by: Davon Kastire Although I find the cruel irony of the Federation's creation coming back to destroy them They aren't. Originally by: Davon Kastire ... should they succeed. They won't. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.18 11:33:00 - [11] Originally by: Lyn Farel So, you condone the Intaki separatist armed movements ? Actually, Knight Farel, I'd be much more interested to know if Main believes that supporting armed insurgencies in Intaki is different to supporting armed insurgencies in the Empire... ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.18 12:54:00 - [12] Actually, I would wager that most Amarrians would consider machines supremely unqualified for this task, as it is almost certain that a machine running purely on logical deduction and observable evidence would determine that God doesn't exist. They would most likely declare that a soulless machine is not properly equipped to discuss matters of faith. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.18 17:27:00 - [13] Originally by: Rek Jaiga This may be the case, and yet the Amarrian faith is based on a rationalized and deduced understanding of God. No it isn't. No such thing exists. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.18 17:59:00 - [14] Originally by: Lyn Farel While I agree with the first part of your statement, the second part refers to the common mistake almost every person do usually. The God in its orthodox way you refers to is only a part of the true real entity, the whole, embracing the Creation and the universe itself. This argument doesn't hold water - it doesn't change anything, it merely shifts definitions, moving away from God as a personified entity and onto the idea of a unified cosmic force. It still doesn't jibe with the law of parsimony which states that entities should not be multiplied beyond reasonable neccessity - we have adequate scientific explanations for the formation of the universe and nearly all observable cosmic phenomena; we don't need an intangible cosmic force to validate it. And ultimately, your argument is philosophically very post-modern - while yes, it is possible that God, as you describe it, does exist, there is no observable evidence that believing in it provides any significant advantage, while there is significant evidence that believing in it would provide several disadvantages to me personally, and others believing in it seems to have significant observable disadvantages to both themselves and others. Given that there is no tangible, observable benefit to believing in God that I could not achieve in other ways and significant arguments against believing in God, there simply isn't enough reason for me to put faith in an unprovable belief system. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.18 19:40:00 - [15] Originally by: Rek Jaiga From the Amarrian point of view, yes it does. That is not, in the grand scheme of things, a particularly shining recommendation for its validity, considering they also thought invading Jove space was a good idea simply on the strength that "God willed it" and he would protect them. Apparently, he didn't will it, because he didn't protect them. Originally by: Rek Jaiga Regarding your other statements concerning the lack of tangible benefit of belief in a unified cosmic entity, the point of many belief systems that support a unified cosmic entity (the True Path, Totality, whatever) is to be introspective about one's place in the unvierse and find inner peace. I will admit this is true, but the recognised New Eden religions that support this belief are almost all godless (in the strict definition of the word, that they do not believe in a god, rather than in the generally-used definition, which is generally a perjorative synonym for "heathen" used by the religious), so it's a moot point. My objections to introspective religions like the Ida are very small - while certainly there are some metaphysical elements that I regard with extreme skepticism, apart from the Aenebra cult, I have never met an Intaki who has ever attempted to force their spiritual beliefs on me. The Ida, while traditionally an Intaki faith, is open to all races and cultures, and does not, unlike the Amarr religion, place one ethnicity above the others (except, again, in the case of the Aenebra, who are viciously racist, but are a very extreme fringe group). Some of the meditation and physical exercise elements of the Ida are exceptionally useful to a capsuleer, even one who's an atheist. Basically what I'm trying to say here is that, yes, there are individual, subjective benefits to certain types of religion, but even then most of them have nothing to do with the presence (or lack thereof) of God and everything to do with the individual. Originally by: Rek Jaiga Ergo, the subjective benefit is of greater importance than the objective universal benefit. Not so, if there is not only a distinct lack of objective universal benefit, but a definite presence of objective universal detriments. This is also tangiental to the main point of there being absolutely no logical basis for the existence of God or the gods in the first place. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.18 20:54:00 - [16] Originally by: Rek Jaiga Well yes, I agree. By no means was I defending the Amarr faith or saying it provides the same benefits as, say, Ida. I was simply saying religion (in some form, even if it's basically godless) can be beneficial. No. Religion is never in and of itself beneficial. Belief in it can occasionally inspire acts of kindness, altruism or creativity, but the same can be said of certain drugs or holoreels. Even if people occasionally do good things because of religion, it is of their own free will and it is their effort that brings it to fruition. And when you consider that from the Amarrian religion has sprung several wars, a genocide and the slavery of nigh on an entire race, it becomes rather hard to balance that with works of art and soup kitchens feeding the poor. Originally by: Rek Jaiga The "definite presence of objective universal detriments" is the Empire's use of slaves, isn't it? I would agree that a religion which forces, justifies, or condones something against the will of another isn't a good one. It's not just the slaves, it's the genocide, the militancy, the racism, the self-aggrandizement, the false modesty, the unwarranted self-importance and the imposition on the property and lives of other people they have no legitimate right whatsoever to be meddling in the affairs of. Originally by: Rek Jaiga Were I not a Nation supporter and a seeker of a unified cluster, we'd probably share much in common, sir. Well, when you realise that the Nation is a sham and a vanity project, a unified cluster is neither a functional possibility nor a desireable goal and that the majority of New Eden simply doesn't want what you're selling, we've got a lot of vacancies that need filling in Mixed Metaphor. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.04.20 19:02:00 - [17] Originally by: Seriphyn Inhonores Andreus, have you once again another subject regarding something completely unrelated to the Amarrian Empire, to a subject that does? No. They did. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
Andreus Ixiris Gallente Mixed Metaphor	Posted - 2011.05.01 00:43:00 - [18] You know what's damaged? Your brain, pilot. That's right, I said it. You're suffering from brain damage. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor
