Perhaps those who have questions of the legitimacy of any of the Lord Admiral's, or Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris' claims would care to raise the issue with Admiral Ren Karetta or perhaps the Grand Inquisitor Ohrud Omel. Their trust in the faith and honesty of Pie Inc. seems well documented.

Quote:
Whether our Empire shone as a bright beacon against heathenism and heretics or was dimmed by the unfortunate interregnum, PIE Inc always remained bravely loyal and never once flinched from danger.
In the face of terrorists, heretics, anarchists, and pirates, PIE remained resolute.
The Empire is eternal. We owe that eternity to servants such as the lords, ladies, and commoners of PIE.
Would that all had their piety and zealotry, we should never fail.
Amarr Victor!
- Admiral Ren Karetta, PIE 10 Year Anniversary Formal Ball

I will not assume to repeat The Grand Inquisitor's words here as they were not of a public manner.

We will never cease to represent ourselves as faithfully as would have led to such statements. We do not assume that our past actions alone prove our faith eternal. We continue every day to prove our faith. To prove one's faith a day, then question the very foundations of that faith the next, shows much of never having true faith.

Quote:
'Which test reveals more of the soul - the test that a man will take to prove his faith. or the test that finds the man who believed his faith already proven? If you know this answer, then you also know which of these challenges bear the greatest penalty for failure, The gates of paradise will open for you one time only; woe to the soul who dares to knock twice.'

CEO Feldman:

I would appreciate it if you would avoid using PIE announcements to attempt to escalate this breakdown in internal Militia Relations.

I would like to use this opportunity to point out that PIE considers the war with the Shakorite regime to be a top priority of the Capsuleers loyal to the Empire. We consider the Shakorite threat to so important that we will even avoid attacking known Heretics who are serving the Amarr militia for the period of their service to the 24th Imperial Crusade.

"Face the enemy as a solid wall
For faith is your armor
And through it, the enemy will find no breach
Wrap your arms around the enemy
For faith is your fire
And with it, burn away his evil"

The Shakorites are currently all but routed, are they not?

The tide is certainly in our favor, but they retain several of their low security base systems. The job is not done.

That's good.

Speaking of dubious allies: I would note that the kill on sight exemption for pilots serving the Amarr militia would extend even to as completely hopeless a reprobate as yourself if you would like to work towards finishing off the Matari positions.

Respectfully, Lord Admiral, and I do mean respectfully, as the contributions of both you and your brethren in PIE are significant and almost without measure for the Amarr cause...

I am speechless. Utterly speechless.

So Known Heretics and members of the "List" of which this announcement was about initially about before the thread was de-railed can remain free from reprisal so long as they join the 24h Imperial Crusade and, through their heretical beliefs, sow division and fissures and uncertainty among the ranks of Faithful as a Fifth Column of unbelief? If she, whose name was stricken from the Book of Records, were to join the 24th Imperial Crusade, she would be able to amble unmolested through a swath of the righteous? If Ms. Strife were to rejoin the Crusade, without repenting of her ways, she would be able to share the stars with PIE? With these fissures, no wonder the 24th Imperial Crusade persists in being unable to remain firm, yet must suffer through an endless cycle of success and reversal.

This has been PIE's policy for the entire duration of the war. If the CONCORD war act had different provisions than it does, then it would be a different matter.

We are fighting outnumbered constantly and have a task of keeping a militia that has a large number of fair weather loyalists and pirates within its ranks pointed at the right target. If we turn our efforts towards fighting heretics inside our militia, we would not be spending that effort fighting the war that matters. The heretics have no military capability of note, they can be beaten by words and arguments, the Matari are a significantly greater threat.

You talk of Fifth columns and divisions, if we were able to be derailed from fighting the Matari just by the entry of a heretic into the war, then it would be ridiculously easy for heretics to work towards division in the militia. As is, they would have to actually work to create a division.

By staying above internal conflicts within our militia, we can at the very least let the heretics spend their pathetic lives fighting the Matari rather than the Faithful.

Now, if there were sufficient faithful serving the militia to win the war *and* destroy the heretics and pirates who have signed on to the militia, then we would happily reconsider our stance.

There are plenty of Imperials who would find such alliances of convenience treasonous.


I'm nearly tempted to join you for a spell and watch your more pious allies squirm.




In any case Brother, I've noticed that occasionally a wormhole will open with a direct transit output from Khanid into the Bleaks. Your invitation might be answered sometime soon, although I imagine not in a manner you will approve.

We serve in a Militia at war at the behest of the Empress.

Your judgements are irrelevant, actually less than irrelevant as they are, as usual, transparent attempts to set allies against each other.

Yes, join us in the warzone if you like (although don't expect us or anyone else to fleet with you), as you obviously need new tactics.

I didn't say I would ally with you. Just that I wouldn't shoot you.

Now if you come into the bleaks without joining the Militia, then I would perfectly happily destroy you if the means were available.

I don't see what's controversial about PIE's policy.

If heretics and Shakorites want to shoot each other, I say let them.

I am in the thick of it actually and very much paying attention. You may not realize how much the Amarr Loyalists in the militia are still managing to get done in spite this so called civil war.

That is why your continued braying is so transparent and unwelcome.

As you like, as my comment could be construed as "you" singular or "you" plural. I really don't care.

Why so hostile? Hit a nerve did I? Did you think you were being clever?
