Very well, you could also put up Pro-[Religion Listed Here] cans, or Pro-[Religion Not Listed Here] cans.

I was gonna do a funny long list, but I realized that I'd run into the character limit pretty quick.

What about can art? Can we get a baby Jesus made out of cans?

there is enough religion to hate each other
there is not enough religion to love each other

Sticks in your throat? Now is that because you believe in a different religion? That's what it seems like otherwise you would not have a problem with the word.



I'm not religious at all and as such I have no problem with whatever religion someone wants to believe in as long as it does not harm anyone else.

Although having loads of cans advertising RL stuff even ingame stuff can be a pain in the butt. I remember what the asteroid belts used to look like with cans everywhere, not a pretty sight.

Just a quick note on the word Xianity.

Christians typically despise the substitution of Christ with an X ie Xmas.


As for my Hindu friend. What are you complaining about? You have more Gods than the rest of us combined. Lol

I think you clearly need to man up

If you dont like it fine, keep on flying

If it bothers you that much then you got anger management issues

btw:
Could we keep this GAME as a thing to relax and have fun in, but not as a battleground for various ideological RL issues.
I dont care much about other peoples belief system in RL, as long as they stay out of my way of life.
I intend to keep it that way ingame as well.
Oh and, the corp name is just..roleplaying...sort of. Lol

Not sure this is possible? I would have to add that considering the amount of garbage that appears in local or advertised on Cans in this wonderful "Sandbox" that we call New Eden, having the word Christianity or what ever form it pops up in, is the least of our problems.

I mean your pettiness and intolerance alone makes me want to find your home system in game and drop all sorts of cans outside your station of choice, regardless of my RL belief system.

Kinda hard to keep religion out of EVE, considering that Amarr are pretty much just Space Christians. With their superiority complex and support of slavery they fit the kind of Christianity the Bible, especially the Old Testament, tries to sell.

Space. It seems to go on and on forever. But then you get to the end and a gorilla starts throwing barrels at you.

I'm not sure what part of christianity supports slavery, but otherwise i guess the Amarr can be compared to any particularly militaristic religions.

Amarr FW = Islamic Jihad = Christian Crusades?

makes me so glad our corp is planning on joining Amarr FW

Remove the cans by taking the stuff from them. They're Christians, they probably won't shoot you unless they think you're Satan. Furthermore, the corps that place these cans for advertising purposes rarely stick around the can, I doubt they're sat, cloaked, waiting for you.

If you don't want to take that risk, then simply create some overview profiles so that cans don't appear when you have the "travelling" profile enabled, but will appear on your "looting" profile instead.
