Awww. [I meant to hit Quick Reply, but the Add Dice Roll option kicked the Quick Reply button to the left].

Anyway, I can tell I play dnd a LOT more than star wars cause I totally almost put "You are the Druid it's looking for" instead of droid.
 

they are listening, you have to say the line!
i don't know what that means
who talks like that
you think he's lying?
i think he's out of his mind
but he has a point
yes
i think so too
there was something i had to do
do you remember?
faintly
what was it he said?
they'd never suspect
there's no reason
it's all silent
they didn't hear what happened
no
do it
tell me
i can't
i won't
it doesn't work that way
but it's happening
isn't it?
what is? what are they saying?
can we trust him?
go back to the beginning
not again
stop it
look at me
say it
what did you mean?
mean?
what did i mean?
where have i heard that before?
what are they talking about?
who are you?
me? I'm you.
Me too
We're all you.
You're us.
We just want to know.
What did you mean?
What were you talking about?
Am I insane?
Of course you are.
That's how it goes.
He stabbed you in the head.
You shattered.
Into us.
All These Fragments.
Me,
and me.
Me too
and you.
He stabbed you to pieces.
We are the pieces of you.
You have to collect yourself.
But there was something else.
You said right before he did it.
Or didn't.
You were supposed to.
What was it?
What were we supposed to do?
Tell us.
Tell yourself.
I
I don't know.
There were words I was supposed to use.
Use them.
Before it is too late.
They are listening.
They will not come unless you say it.
Say it.
"This is Agent Brennan. My cover is blown. I need medical assistance. Move in."
 

That brought up one old thought I had... If there is a soul and everyone has one, would clones have one? If so is it in fact a splintered one or is it a copy? If it's a copy then does that mean a soul is infact genetic in nature and not spiritual (since clones are created genetically) and if so, can one genetically engineer evil or good?

Souls stretch well.

In the Star Wars Expandd Universe I seem to recall that in the Heir to the Empire Trilogy that this was put forward as the reason for the Clone Wars, clones go mad due to sharing soul/resonanc in the force. Nice idea shame Lucas :):):):)ed it up.
 

I'm interested in the boundary between intelligence and sentience. We can detect that even plants feel their environment, and that even seeds are sensitive to the time of year and the amount of sunlight to know when to begin their growth spurt. At what point can you call something like that intelligent, and what would it take to turn it sentient? In other words, the idea which began with The Island of Doctor Moreau that you could uplift the intelligence level of a being near-instantly.

And how weird would it be if plants could talk, and you'd walk into a botany shop and instead of picking plants for your apartment you'd have to go through an interview where the plants ask what kind of an apartment it is and how much sun and water and nutrients there are.

"Oh, of course I'll water you every day." =)
