Recursive Paradox Movin on Up Recursive Paradox TeaDidikai Movin on Up I just take the perspective that it works because the gods allow it. If it falls within what they take as acceptable, it works. If not... well, it doesn't work! Is there more to it than that? That position really only works if deities are omnipotent. If they aren't, then it's possible for their followers to do things that will work, but are still highly inappropriate. And what if you don't have deities! *gasps* Uhm, how would it follow through as a religion? Unless its basically a philosophy or atheism I don't follow. There are atheistic religions. LaVeyan Satanism? That's the only one I know of outside of Atheism in a Christian context. One could label it as atheism and nihilism, with a touch of some kind of magic, and common sense phrases. But, when you look at it, that idea of Satanism boils down to a philosophy. Am I missing something more?

Am I missing something more? Satanism possesses philosophy, members, rituals and beliefs regarding the nature of reality. So it fits the definition of religion. Etherism is also an atheistic religion, albeit a very new one.

@Everyone:
Do we seriously need to rag on PrometheanSet after he has already left? It's unbelievably disrespectful and discourteous to mock someone when they aren't around.
It certainly doesn't let us retain the moral high ground, no matter how wrong or asinine the person being mocked was. He's still a person and we ought to treat him as one.
For ******** sake people, I expect better from those I respect. >.<
Edit: After talking over it with Celeblin, I'm just going to back off.
I get that people need to vent if someone was really irritating. I just don't like the way it's being done here. I think that the way it's been done here is not a good way. I find it discourteous and that bothers me in people I respect.
But that's just my way of seeing things and I won't push it beyond that.

It was certainly a joke made at his expense. No, more of a general statement of a trend of people getting PM's from people in M&R and here ranting about horrible they are, and no one ever PMing me in such a fashion. Either way, you really shouldn't assume, it was a joke made in loose reference to him, but not a "mock" in any sense of the word. 3nodding Slight edit: I'm an a*****e and a massive c**k, but, you know, if anyone's gonna call me out on it, at least call me out on a situation where I actually am being an a*****e and/or c**k ninja

That's still contributing to an issue even if you aren't a primary part of it. But I won't look at you as directly mocking him. You've convinced me of that at least.

After all, everyone includes people who have never posted in this thread and even myself. Just because the point is raised to you doesn't mean you were part of the issue (even though I still think your actions still contributed, if in a lesser sense)

Blanket statements just make me twitch ninja Quote: Just because the point is raised to you doesn't mean you were part of the issue (even though I still think your actions still contributed, if in a lesser sense) Well, I'd say whilst my actions may have contributed to the discussion going on, if anything, they actually moved things away from mocking promethean and towards a light-hearted lampooning of myself 3nodding

Well beyond the blanket statement that everyone ought to at least hear what I say. *nod* Quote: Well, I'd say whilst my actions may have contributed to the discussion going on, if anything, they actually moved things away from mocking promethean and towards a light-hearted lampooning of myself 3nodding I guess I could see that interpretation. *nod*

Still, he was extremely rude to everyone here. God forbid we make light of it.
