I wonder where's the outrage from imperial loyalists at these demonstrations? People on the Kador worlds have been whipped up into some sort of religious frenzy to the point of people jumping from cathedral roofs, setting themselves on fire and more yet, it's apparently fine. I guess the most extreme behavior is acceptable so long as it celebrates the Amarrian deity, at least according to the Empress.
If these sorts of celebrations, with the attendant deaths, had happened in any of the other empires I can imagine the amount of self-righteous chest beating by the slavers that would have been spread across the IGS by now.

How the hell do you know Heth didn't rise through the ranks with the help of some divine influence? Are you omniscient?
Anyway, where you slavers see divinity I see a capsuleer who cloned herself to cheat death, paid someone to reverse engineer an ancient piece of technology and fooled you all into believing that she was acting in the name of your god.
So, tell me, if your Empress ordered you all to light yourselves on fire because your god "spoke to her" and commanded that you show your obedience to his words in such an extreme manner, would you do it? Assuming there's no explicit scriptural prohibition and no contrary ruling from the Theology Council wouldn't you have to? If not, why not?
I was taught that blind, unquestioning obedience to authority was a bad thing that ultimately leads to totalitarianism. Please tell me why this isn't the case with you Amarr.

Is this the new stock answer for everything in order to stifle debate? Or does this only apply to those who comment on Caldari and Amarrian issues?
Not much point in this channel or any other communication medium in that case.
I'll be sure to regurgitate this response when there are Matari "internal matters" that the rest of you decide to comment on. When you do, I'll be certain to point out your hypoicrisy as well.

Interesting. So reports of Jamyl's aberrant behavior finally hit the mainstream press (something that's been hinted at and spoken of in hushed whispers for years, by the way) and you imperials brush just them aside as simply biased and sensationalized? She is a (cloned) human, after all, and prone to the same illnesses, physical and mental, that the rest of us are. Maybe you should do a little research rather than simply dismissing these reports out of hand?
You know, often where one finds large quantities of smoke, something is combusting nearby.

...Minmatar having tribal issues again as the memory of their nemesis (the Amarr) fades and they all don't have one thing to hate...
What tribal issues are you referring to? There are no inter-tribal squabbles now. As a matter of fact, we've all united behind Karin Midular and are praying for her recovery. You're also wrong that we've forgotten about the threat posed by the Amarr. We'll be forever vigilant regarding the slavers so long as they continue their policy of "reclaiming".
It also shows how little you truly understand of our people when you state as fact that the only thing that unites us is a hatred for the slavers. There's so much more to us than that. I find your overly simplistic argument, quite frankly, offensive.
So much ignorance and bigotry in that one sentence. That's quite an accomplishment, pilot.

If no comments were desired then, the news article shouldn't have been posted in a public FORUM whose purpose is DISCUSSION, IDEA EXCHANGE AND OPINIONS. My mistake for assuming otherwise. Please, "better colleagues" carry on.
Perhaps in future I'll see you similarly admonishing your Caldari brethren and Amarrian allies when they comment on matters not directly related to the State and Empire?
