The relationship between Holder and Slave is a holy covenant with God: the slave offers their blood and toil to God's greater glory . . . Phrasing!
Indeed. To say the slave offers something implies they have the option not to. |

How about we just pull the 'victim' card? Because you will be. Soon. Authority, as the Empress demonstrated in Sarum Prime, comes from having the biggest number of the biggest guns. And you don't.
Squeeze what sadistic joy you can from your station, 'holder'. We are coming. |

Step outside your little sporting event and come to the where we fight real wars and say that, tough guy. You're nothing but a glorified Combat Biker power forward. |

Ashlar Vellum wrote:Scripture does come before all other things.
So, my apologies 2nd lieutenant for pointing this out, but there is also a passage in scripture about code of demeanor which states "Be Careful. Be Watchful. Be Respectful". Most obvious question comes to mind, the faithful who are pushing this petition so vigorously are you being careful or watchful or maybe you are being respectful with all of this?
You know, it's a lot more honest to just say 'I can't argue on the merits so JUST SHUT UP'.
Wastes less time reading, too. |

How screwed up do you have to be where you start making Nauplius look sensible and MiniLuv seem like a humanitarian organization? |

The Leopardess wrote: Not screwed up enough to deny the Empress and threaten to kill the faithful for not bending to some nullsec tyrant's will.
Silly nutbar. We haven't done either of those.
Deny the Empress? No no, she's the Empress. We've just said she shouldn't be.
Threaten to kill the faithful? Faugh. We haven't threatened to kill anyone.
We've just made an offer. An offer not to kill you if you bend the knee. I mean, you don't threaten to clean up the refuse or use the latrine. But you might offer not to make a mess when you do it.
A threat would indicate there's something else we want, that you can offer. The offer makes it pretty clear it's simply something we're willing to indulge in. |

Just remember, grounder, you've got to get to the pod. |

The Leopardess wrote:The people wanted a Sarum on the throne more than anyone else, and there are very specific reasons for that.
Like... showing up with a completely inexplicable superweapon to blow up a fleet of enemy ships that'd made the Amarr people feel weak and afraid?
Yep. Reasons. Pure insecure, abject terror, and a fig leaf toward nationalistic pride. That's reasons!

The Leopardess wrote:You clearly do not understand us and until you convert, you will never understand the Amarr people. Be he farmer or soldier, the Amarr people understand War and they understand Vengeance. The Empress speaks to the heart of the people because God is there in them and God is with her.
Yawwwwn.
Tell you what, chickie, when you've actually seen war, come back and tell me how the simplest Amarr farmer understands it. |

Neph wrote:Limiting the 'purchase' of slaves [...] is a first step towards abolishing the practice entirely, especially when you're limiting it from us absurdly wealthy capsuleers.
Not in this case.
In this case, the intent is to limit the trafficking in slaves to those with theological claims on those people in order to strengthen the institution. Not necessarily to render it beyond criticism - the public opinions of the institution aren't even considered. But this is definitely a petition intended to make slavery healthier, not abolish it. |

The Leopardess wrote:But suffice it to say, yes, if the Imperium invaded, which they won't, of course I would stand against them. They are an absurd charade, a mockery of the Empire, a blight on the face of nullsec, a refuge of heretics and infidels.
Sure you will, kitten. |

At this rate Max might as well just waltz in and burn it to the ground, you'll all be busy congratulating each other on how much gossip you have to bring to the tea party to bother with combat maneuvers.

The only theological authority I recognize is the Theology Council. Are you inventing a new religion or something?
And here we see the mighty kitten seeding the ground so that later she can reap an endless number of rationalizations for why she didn't defend the region... |

I am respecting the wishes of someone who has earned my respect through her continued and active presence on-field both in the warzone and as a Guardian pilot during multiple Drifter attacks.
Kindly do the same. You and I can have this discussion in another thread if you like... in about... call it two hours? |
