[QUOTE="RobNJ, post: 1066126, member: 3617"] [b]Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: From his wife...[/b] Just about everything you've said amounts to, "I don't like it, so it's bad, and everyone hates it." That was the point of my first post on this thread, to illuminate this sickness in your part of the discussion. Bullcrap. You don't like the setting, that doesn't mean a large number of gamers don't. It's not a bad setting because of that. It's a setting you don't like because of that. That doesn't make it bad. Your opinions aren't objective reality. Quit acting like they are. By the way, your feelings and opinions on this matter are wrong. Humanocetricism is not necessary to have a good setting. Do you mind if I borrow elements from your post for the racist Humanist movement in my campaign? Nothing in the Arcana Unearthed book requires that anything above not be true. And you're wrong. Those things aren't necessary to have a good world. They may be necessary to have a world you like, but they are not necessary to have an objectively good world. Quit thinking your preferences are absolute received wisdom. If you weren't so closeminded you'd see the story-value in that. What [i]would[/i] make someone do that? A megalomanical need for power? A need to feel more strongly connected to something ancient and powerful? True insanity? I'd suggest that your readings of history are pretty limited if you think people wouldn't self-stigmatize and give up sexual pleasure for causes they think are profound. [b][/b]Please indicate where in AU it states this objectively? Nowhere? Thanks, move along. [b][/b]Fortunately, you don't matter. Because the sales on this book have been overwhelming. [/QUOTE]
