I will have to take the time to read the decision in full and compose my thoughts. However, I think that today the Supreme Sobor has confirmed what we all knew and what we all have seen. God's power is limitless. No mere technology of ours can disrupt, or destroy His order of creation. He made human beings with souls for a purpose, and our soul stays with us when we clone. A great weight has been lifted from Imperial capsuleers this day. A great uncertainty cleared.
May God continue to Bless Empress Catiz, the Privy Council, the Theology Council, and all those that lead Holy Amarr. |

The Supreme Sobor are the best theologians anywhere, and the amount of brain power, knowledge, and experience the Theology Council as a whole can bring to a problem is simply staggering. |

I will just point out that the question of clones and souls has been argued for a very long time. Empress Catiz likely told them to just hurry up and make a decision already. If she wanted to issue a proclamation that clones have souls, she doesn't actually need the Supreme Sobor to issue an advisory position. She can just do it. |

Samira, why don't you come see me in Sarum Prime some time this week. I'd love for us to have a talk that's not viewed by God knows how many other people. |

It is very common for someone to talk to a priestess in private. In fact, it's a key point of our ministry. This is an invitation, not an order. I'm not making her do anything. |

Sacred Flesh still applies to heirs. |

If King Khanid III is a clone of King Khanid II, as whispered speculation is said in capsuleer circles, mostly from without the faithful, that would be a violation of Sacred Flesh. |

Lord Newelle:
The Advisory Opinion of the Supreme Sobor did not give you a soul where you had no one before; it simply recognized what already existed. God created humans to have souls, and our understanding of Him is such that we know clones have souls as well. Neither the Empress nor the Theology Council have the power to give a soul to that which does not. |

I would look to the late Lord Kor-Azor for an example. Should the people he wronged not have spoken against him? Should they have kept their place, because he was the Emperor's son and an heir?
NO!
It is only by the cries of the faithful that Lord Kor-Azor was brought back into the faithful. Without those that he wronged speaking out, bearing witness did the Speakers of Truth investigate, judge, punish, and ultimately help redeem him. We should look to their example and give voice to the wrong, so long as it is respectful and proper, so that it may be corrected and the wayward child brought back into the flock. |

I look forward to seeing you there, Ms. Arrendis. No need to bring anything. |
