If you’re actually DOPE-HARDCORE-O:

No one but you and the mods can tell who Tubmailed you first. Thus, no one knows with whom you should have split the pot.

From your last few posts, I can see you are a very inexperienced at successfully trolling in non-RP forums.

E: And to address your concern, the person that I make the agreement with will know. If everyone else is left guessing, so be it.

Religious players

The Ferv Posted:

Before we go into “religion” as a whole, being that “religion” is an awfully broad term, would you (DHC, that is) mind clarifying a few things for us?

-What, exactly, are you referring to by the term “religion”?

-Are there any significant differences (in your mind) between “religion”, “organized religion”, “self delusion/mbum hypnosis”, “faith”, “belief”, “idealism”, “philosophy”, and/or “spirituality”?

-If so, what are they, and how do you arrive at the conclusion that they are there?

-If not, how do you arrive at the conclusion that all these terms refer to a single phenomenon?

-Does “religion” require belief in a deity?

-If so, why?

-If not, why not?

-From an observer’s point of view, your initial post (and subsequent posts as well) have all come off as quite hostile towards the idea of dualistic & monotheistic faith-based belief systems, but almost entirely ignored monistic, polytheistic, nontheistic, rational, and/or skeptical belief systems. Was this deliberate, or are you including all non-empirical belief systems in your generalizations?

-How do you personally self-identify in the realm of religion, and why?

-Do you feel that this self-identification fits comfortably within the scope of this thread?

-If so, why?

-If not, why not?

...And just for the record, in order to clear up any possible biases, I self-identify as a non-religious agnostic skeptic.

In addition, based on my beliefs and their external manifestations, an objective observer could reasonably make any of the following bumumptions:

-that I am an extremely liberal Christian with universalist leanings.

-that I subscribe to a westernized form of Buddhism with strong Taoist influences.

-that I am agnostic and/or apathetic.

-that I am a deist.

Strictly speaking, they’d be incorrect in making any of the above bumumptions, but they all hit close to the mark.

I would like to raise the point, however, that given a monistic & materialistic understanding of existence, one cannot actually empirically disprove the existence of an intelligence sufficiently advanced beyond humanity to qualify as “divine” by current standards at this point in time (and that likewise, one cannot actually empirically prove the existence of such a being, either).

I already said it in the OP. I’m not arguing GOD v. NO GOD. It’s been done elsewhere. Religion is not faith: Faith is a personal belief structure to which you, for whatever reason, prescribe. Religion is the dogmatic, often hierarchical secular construct which pbumes itself off as the gateway between you, the believer, and whatever heaven/paradise/virgins your faith promises you at death if you are true to yourself, your god, and your faith.

Basically, it’s the cult/brainwashing stuff that springs forth from literal readings of books, if you want my opinion. I don’t care about what god or how many you have, whether you have a spirit or not…these are irrelevant to the discussion at hand. The question is how a sane, rational person can buy into the normative ideals fostered by a given religious organization. Welcome to the thread.

Yeah, considering the US military doesn’t issue AK-40-****ing-7’s I’m p sure that’s fake.

Edit: and the others are exactly what I told you not to post.

The army doesn’t issue a lot of **** that people in the military carry.

I’m pretty sure none of the Lugers a lot of my military buddies have as heirlooms came from the army. But I need to recheck my history books.

And for those thinking of diffusing such an offer between three instead of five, or trying to arrange it so one of us gets screwed but the others split the pot: good luck. Someone, even in a group this small, will cheat. That someone will cause you all to tie and lose everything, or they will screw you over and take the whole prize for themselves.

To make this clear, by the by, it means that I (like you all) am going to cast all of my votes for myself, and you, my partner, will cast all of your votes for me.

Prisoner’s dilemma is pretty fun. So, here we go:

If we all vote strictly for ourselves, we get 2 votes. We can publicly plot and scheme all we like, but psychology suggests that we are all very likely to take the selfish route and vote for ourselves after promising to vote for one other person with which we are ‘colluding’ but secretly intend to screw over.

That being said, I’ll make this offer: I’ll split the pot with the first person to respond to this post with a tubmail. I have BP already, so don’t need to win all 5. I’ll give you 3, and take 2 for myself. You get the better end of the deal, and we break out of the prisoner’s dilemma problem. It’s the best option. It’s the only option.
