OH MIGHTY CALDARI GODS! I Beseech thee!

As a loyal member of your following, who has slain both Gurista and Serpentis in great numbers, rescued damsels perpetually in distress, has had worlds collide on him too many times to count, while maintaining his +5 Sec status, despite being a member of a nullsec corp.

Please grant your humble servant this request of an extra 3billion isk and a Chimera in the JO- station. I've been stuck in CTAs, and the 24-hour timer on jump clones means I can never get away to 'rat.

All power to the state. Tibus be praised, etc., etc.

Not sure if Mentas Blaque's propaganda is correct...

...or just Mentas Blaque propaganda...

Watch_ Fred Fred Frederation_ and stop [u]cryptozoologist[/u]! Fight against the brutal genocide of fictional creatures across New Eden! Is that a metaphor? Probably not, but the fru-fru- people will sure love it!

A lot of our fights spill over into lowsec. I think the escaping prey thing "ha HA! No interdiction bubbles here!"

Then the pewpew happens. And afterwards we get inside the pod and I get another "special friend". Chloe gets so lonely sometimes.

You need to be specific in your requests...way too vague...

Here is how you should pray:

"Oh mighty Minmatar deity! take pity on your humble servant, and bestow upon him a Wolf, that he might reclaim...no...wait...bad word...spread your love through warm projectiles hurled across space towards those that would oppose me. Let my aim be true, and my pewpew be many.

I'm sure the gods, the same ones that keep magically increasing and decreasing slots on our ships somehow, might grant our prayers if we believe hard enough.

Your ship's on-board systems and retrofitting were modified by their respective engineers, including a station-based re-design and deployment of all actively commissioned vessels during docked hours. It was an impressive job and most of it is still under the workings from what I hear, but certainly not the work of any "gods."

All stations, all at once, in 15 minutes? Even in nullsec, where CONCORD holds little sway? I'm sorry. That is the work of the gods right there. Especially as no one ship came out ahead. My present theory is that all the various faction gods got together and conspired to keep us equal.

Which is why I am encouraging people to pray in detail to their various faction gods. Maybe even pirate gods. Though I fear the Sansha's Nation deity. Their followers are scary enough...

Bwahahahahahahah
My goodness, you really are quite something
I haven't laughed this hard in a very very long time, congratulations are to be issued.

I do this for many reasons. I do it because I believe it is right. I do it because I will profit by it. These all consolidate into one reason: I do it because I can.

You seem to have missed something. My deity goes by the name ISK (Interstellar Space Kreator).

I hope the clears things up for you.

They are already mad. I mean, first the Minmatar rise up and separate, then Jamyl desecrates the Succession rites, then she either frees or sets a time limit on slaves...

So now I offer up my prayer to the Amarr gods:

"F*ck you. And the Impairor you rode in on. Caldari gods are more efficient anyway."

I don't believe God pilots an Impairor. The Scriptures are silent on this.

Although some very very old heretical texts state that God drove a pair named Adam and Eve out of something called the Garden of Eden in a vehicle known as a "Fury".

So just out of curiosity, 'ole ally, 'ole pal, how do people in Amarr justify that the slave-gathering reclaimations were god's will, the Rites of Succession were god's will, then have Sarum Jamyl come through and declare both invalid, while being declared god's voice?

Or do you hold to the older Theology Council method of rule?

This is not the first time doctrine and interpretation of the Scriptures has changed. The Empress has great leeway on this, as she is, by definition, our number one religious teacher.

Slave taking is part of the Amarr Tradition, and not the Amarr Scripture itself. The Scripture is vague on specifics about how the enemies of God are to be smitten. If taking slaves does not advance Reclamation, then She will forbid it. Successor Emperors may revisit this issue.

Ultimately, the Theology Council has responsibility for dealing with heresy in high places, and deciding what policies may be carried forward after succession. Major policy shifts do not survive succession if the council disagrees with them, regardless of who is really in charge.

Amarr Victor, Deus Vult!
