| Message | ooc- I'm divided on this one. Now that we have something cool going, it would be nice to support it with some legislative fiat, but what would it do to my visibility? |

| Message | ooc-- I know what you mean. The bars just reflect the todays stance on monotheistc religious and doesn'T count e.g greek and roman points of view where religion was a "give and take". A state religion but without those moral standpoints we know from the christs and muslims. There was no "we have the one and only true religion" issue we often see since the 600th century AD. Maybe we can ask a mod to change this without to need a vote if we are able to find an agreement here. |
