[QUOTE="DonAdam, post: 357866, member: 2446"] Since the points about Jesus and Christianity have been totally diverted from the question of translating his ideas into an alignment, I won't answer your observations, Canis. If you would like to continue the discussion over email, I'd be willing to. All I will do is correct you in a factual error, because I don't believe in allowing those to spread: the Vatican condemned slavery for a long, long time, it was only the American church that didn't listen. In fact, this, the French revolution, and the persecution of Catholics are what caused the Church to reject liberal democracy in the 1800's. I agree with Q being CN, though the collective as a whole would probably be True Neutral. Just for fun, RPG alignments (I'm sure to start a flame war here, all of this is IMHO): Lawful Good: Hero System- lots of rules on a good system if you want really detailed stuff Neutral Good: D&D 3rd edition/D20- a bit more simplistic than Hero, but still has a good structure and balance (in the core) Chaotic Good: AD&D 1st edition/Hackmaster- simple rules that require lots of DM judgment calls, but still way cool Lawful Neutral: GURPS- just rules, rules, rules Neutral: WEG Star Wars- fair amount of rules, sometimes poorly conceived (some of those skill-ability associations still blow my mind), and the buckets of dice make for a humdrum system Chaotic Neutral: D&D Basic- Neutral just because I didn't have anything else to go here, and the simpleness of this can get repetitive Lawful Evil: I believe it was called Phoenix, but I'm not sure- it had a separate attack table for every weapon... ugh Neutral Evil: Elric d20, Swashbuckling Adventures d20 Chaotic Evil: D&D 2nd Edition- made pretty much no improvements upon first edition Chaotic Angst: White Wolf Games- these don't even deserve to be on the sacred D&D alignment system (flames in 3,2,1...)
