[QUOTE="Thornir Alekeg, post: 5214181, member: 15651"] First off, I would only be more accepting of the basic "survivalist" idea if the concept of survival can be applied on a larger scale than the individual. There are people who are willing to sacrifice themselves "for god and country," or "the cause." They are not dealing from a personal survivalist perspective, but the survival of something they believe in. And perhaps it was just the way you decided to phrase it, but I think you were way off the mark with the Chaotic Neutral description. Did you mean to imply CN is crazy or completely disassociated from reality? The way I've always interpreted it, a CN person told to go to the top of a mountain or else, may go do something else entirely with the attitude of "if the king can find me, he can go ahead and try and 'or else' me." Alternatively the CN person might go ahead, climb the mountain then drop his trousers, moon the palace and declare himself King of the mountain. [/QUOTE]
