Jesuits are smart but they're all dorks and also slimy motherfuckers. Every single Jesuit in the history of the Society would have been sorted into House Slytherin if they were Harry Potter wizards instead of priests. All of them.

agree, OP, living in a dystopian police state plutocracy isn't so bad, after all, so a theocracy would probably be tolerable too!

Smoking Crow posted:What say you? Would you like to live in a theocracy? No. I do not wish to be forced to live or die on the whims of a group of people whom claim to hear voices and be told from an invisible man that we cannot see how good or sinful we are. At one point or another there always ends up being two people who are hearing voices from two different 'gods', and ultimately a holy war erupts as the two vie for control over a theocracy. So no. I do not. I also suggest you get off whatever  you are on.Smoking Crow posted:You know every Christianity thread on these forums, unless it's protected, goes into WH40K references. I wonder why that is? Because WH40K is what a Theocracy's logical conclusion is. An emperor or leader who is considered holy, akin to a god, and who may or may not exist. Any disagreement with them (or the people 'giving his orders') means immediate ex-communication and if not immediately put to death, being 'unpersoned' to the point that you'll either be forced to do the worst of the worst jobs, or literally starve in the streets.

 "The righteous need not cower before the drumbeat of human progress. Though the song of yesterday fades into the challenge of tomorrow, God still watches and judges us. Evil lurks in the datalinks as it lurked in the streets of yesteryear. But it was never the streets that were evil."
