But some of your kind do. You would deny them that right?
Yes, they are called Ammatars. And no I would not deny them that right. Please show me a slave who does though.
Actually, I was referring to the so-called Mamet 500. I understand that they are so happy that they worked extra hard just to buy Siobhan a new slaver hound.

Would a loving parent allow their young children to go off and do their own thing?

For continuation of seemingless inane arguments. Post here Rodj, and i will answer you, save derailing of furhter threads.
We both may consider your arguments to be inane, slave, but my comments are well-thought out statements of truth.

Alas, it has been some time since Rodj and I discussed why he's wrong. Good luck and have fun, Khaldorn 
That's because after the discussion we invariably conclude that it was you who was wrong all along.

I remember thinking that because the Amarrian religious disease has rotted Rodj's brain to the point where he is incapable of thought, I might as well argue with the speaking clock.
The thing about the speaking clock is, it's always right, so in a sense you are correct - arguing with me must be like arguing with the clock.
In any case, why are you here trying to hijack the thread rather than telling a non-sentient machine that it's wrong?

Your argue that the sky is not blue if it suited your purposes. I do not find one person that agrees with you, apart from yourselves, hunched in your own little corner of the galaxy.
Actually, on most planets the sky is not blue.

However, if widespread acceptance is the cornerstone of correctness, we can conclude that the Amarrian ideals, having been rejected by the majority of the galaxy's citizens, are wrong.
Well, firstly morality is not a democratic concept.
But if it were, let's have a look at the numbers.
In terms of population, the Amarr Empire is the largest state.
The Khanid Kingdom and the Ammatar Consulate hold similar views to the Empire on most issues.
The Caldari State certainly doesn't complain about how we do things.
So that leaves just the Gallente Federation and the Minmatar Republic as the nations opposed to our use of guest workers.
And they hardly represent a majority of the galaxy's citizens.

They point is, they haven't adopted Amarrian methods in favour of their own. Which kinda suggests they think their methods are better than yours.
And my point is still that concepts such as truth and morality are not democratic.
Just because a lot of people hold a particular viewpoint, does not make it right. I'd rather accept the message of the one and only supreme being as the truth in preference to that of a billion deluded Ni-Kunni liberals.
I hear, for example, that a large number of Minmatars are convinced that skies are blue on all planets. Clearly, they are wrong.

Indeed... and, this being the case, it also means they have no moral right to enforce that viewpoint on other people, right?
Wrong. It is a God given right.
God is merely a viewpoint.
Just because you claim He's not real, it doesn't mean that He doesn't exist.

Man alive, people are forever bringing this up with me...
For the record: I accept that my disbelief in the Amarrian god does not mean that he cannot and does not exist.
There. Now, all it takes is for you to accept that your belief in him doesn't mean that he does exist, and we're done.
But I don't believe He exists - I know He exists.
