TL;DR, atheists are the only intolerant people left on the internet nowadays.

Are you sure you are an Atheist and not an Antitheist, Alex? Because those two things are not the same, no matter how many people fail to see the difference.

And yeah, you are probably just seeing things. Not much different from people who see Jesus on their toast. Though to be fair, i have not seen the station in question, so maybe i'd see the same thing.

I've noticed that in some stations there appears to be a very dominant cross as part of the station decoration. for example Moclinamaud VII - Federal Defense Union Logistic Support

I dont know if this is accidental or deliberate but as an atheist i don't really appreciate looking at it much and i'm sure folks of different religions don't like it much either.



So you're an atheist? If I'm not mistaken that means you don't believe in any god whatsoever. If this is the case, what exactly is religious iconography offending in you?

Do you get offended every time you walk past a church or mosque? If so, you need to seek professional medical attention as you're mental. If not, stop whining. It's not even reality. It's just a game.

I bet assassin's creed really pissed you off.

As a Christian believer who is fully aware that the cross is of pagan origin and fervently believe it has no place in the Christian religion: This is a fictional game about a universe where a single section of that universe is based on a religion that does not exist or is practiced in real life. Outside of fictional "roleplaying" CCP does not promote any religion in game or outside of game and has actively locked threads containing religious overtones.

It's a game. Either enjoy it, or don't.


Is this a target audience troll?

Biblically the cross has quite a lot to dowith Christianity. It is the emblem of the Son of Man lifted uplike the brass snake in the desert by Moses; look at Him and be saved.

Eh? It was only associated with Christianity via Christ's crucifixion at the hands of the Romans, who had been using it against criminals and political enemies for a long time before that. If anything it should be more a symbol of cruelty and oppression than anything religious. While I generally try to avoid religious debates (that always end up as arguments and trollfests), Christianity's symbol should really be the star of David since Christ himself was Jewish. :spoiler:

How long before this gets locked now btw? Lol
