I say "Tzeentch!" instead of cursing now.

FOR THE FEMPEROR!

>>2646980
Has anyone responded with, "bless you" yet?

>>2646978

I'd call on Nurgle to rid me of this cold / sore throat, but I doubt it'd be particularly beneficial.

I prayed to Nurgle when I was younger to kill some kid for pushing me off the slide when I was a wee lad, he died of cancer 4 years later, the whole school was mourning his death, I was just stunned that Papa had deemed to answer my prayers.

>>2646983

>Nurgle
>Rid me of this cold / sore throat

Now why would the eternal lord of stagnation, decay, and disease rid you of one of his blessings?

Excellent trolling OP. The capitalization of "Mortal Peril" was what tipped me off 100%. 8/10, and I mean that.

>>2646987

I don't think he's trolling, boss.

The Emporer is watching you fap

I like Khorne more.

>>2646987

You know, I'm honestly not sure. My first thought was troll, but it's so well written it's almost believeable. 9/10 even so.

Does anyone have the rules for the emporer on tabletop?

>This not a place for theistic debate, I know. However, I believe that there truly is some kind of deity, it is wise enough to know that, no matter what word you use to address it, it knows and appreciates that you are calling out to it, praying, asking for broad favours.

This line of thinking is actually a logical form of theism.

What have you done, OP?

>>2647009

Except that there's still no evidence such a deity actually exists. You're right though, it's less contradictory than mainstream conceptions.

>>2647003
See the stats for The Doctor.

>>2647021

Where can i find the stats for this "Doctor" you speak of?

>>2647022

>I don't know who Doctor Motherfucking Who is.

i also pray to the Emperor.

>>2647031
i dont know who peter parker is, so how does that make you feel.

>This line of thinking is actually a logical form of theism.

No, it's not.

The Emperor is so fucking badass that his badassery seeps from the game.

Admit it, you want to yell FOR THE EMPEROR from the top of your lungs sometimes.

OP, have you been working towards paying the blood debt that all mankind owes him?

>>2647017

If you want to start down that path there's no real evidence that anything exists. That being said, not believing anything =/= believing in nothing.

If I were given to deity worship, I think the Emperor would indeed be my god of choice. In the grand scope of things, I care mostly about mankind's survival and success, which is what Big E stands for. He is the agent of human enlightenment and progress, and he doesn't try to sugar-coat this agenda or wrap it into vague guidelines. Like other monotheistic deities, he's a benevolent tyrant, but to me he seems the most forthright of the bunch - comparatively few things are forbidden, and the ones that are are the result of rather consistent (if draconian) 'better safe than sorry' policies.

>If you want to start down that path there's no real evidence that anything exists.

Before we head down there, let's acknowledge that absence of evidence where evidence should be evident is evidence against.

>>2646978

>Litanies of Protection, Litanies of Joy, even personal litanies have been created and stored on my iPod to listen to when I need support.

These litanies that you speak of, can you upload them onto rapidshare?

I wish to sample them for myself.

I learned from Planescape that if we all pray hard enough, the Emperor will be real.

Too bad our souls are sucked in the shamanistic magic explosion, but what the hell... :D

bro you dont fucking know, i pray to the machine god blessed be his name- and to the almighty emperor id show you my liturgies on yellow postits allovet my rulebook - it is better to have died for the emperor than to have lived for oneself - hear the spacemarines in DoW gets me into a fanatical rage

Sup, /tg/

This not a place for theistic debate, I know. However, I believe that there truly is some kind of deity, it is wise enough to know that, no matter what word you use to address it, it knows and and cares not that you are calling out to it, praying, asking for broad favours.

I pray to Khorne. You have no idea how much this gets me through the day. Praying to the Blood God, seeking his favour through the death of my enemies is my path. Songs of Rage, Songs of Blood, even personal litanies have been created and stored on my iPod to listen to when I need support. In fact, I have called upon His Strength to help me when I was in danger of failing to to take the skull of some imperial lackey who thought I was trying to mug him.

The reason I say this, /tg/, is that I know that there is someone else who does this. Are you there, /tg/? Are you there?

>>2647092
considering there is a warp then our emotions will leave a resounding mark in the warp should we give into a state of fanatasism large enough to create a tear in the warp (or a warp storm) that would give birth to a entity that resounds with our directives and our being. as was the case for the god slanesh (primarily a being of hedonistic desire) born of the mimicked desires of the eldar at the time of the fall.
would it be worth having your sould stripped off you to create such a being - and what of the ability to creade such a being knowing that for once with certianty your death will attribute to the glory of mankind?

Step 1. Find crazy God freak
Step 2. Tell them about the Immortal Emperor of Mankind
Step 3. ???
Step 4. PROFIT

>>2647146

FUCK YES

>How in da' mukkin Gorka and morka iz not hur?

I use the litany of machine restoration everytime I rapair something or install a new part to my computer.

"Mechanism I restore thy spirit, let the Machine God breath half life into thy veins and render thee functional."

I don't believe it does anything but it satisfies my nerdy side even though I quit warhammer some time ago.

>>2647166

Suddenly, Necrons. Everywhere.

>>2647166

Do you say it in the DoW Enginseer voice?

>>2647179

Different Anon, but whenever I drive somewhere I leave the car saying "Thank you, Machine Spirit, for our safe arrival" in the Engineseer's voice. My friends think it's annoying as fuck.

>>2647182

You are crazy as fuck, you were in the warp last thursday by any chance?

>>2647182

If they think you're crazy as fuck, they're obviously lacking in the neckbeard department. I say you get new friends.

>>2647184
>>2647188

Not crazy, annoying. And if I didn't have these friends to annoy, I'd have to get new ones, and that's an annoying process.

>>2647182
It IS annoying as fuck.
Fuckin' hilarious though.

>>2647197

That's not annoying at all, what IS annoying is yelling "WITNESS YOUR DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM" whenever you unleash a particularly stubborn entity from your rectum. Solid or gaseous.

OP if u listen to the Litanies of Protection and the Litanies of Joy where did u get them?

I listen to the Litany of Fury. Makes me calm and relaxed.

>>2647205
I'm doing this from now on.

LOOK WHAT YOU HAVE WROUGHT.

>>2647215

Provided OP isn't just making shit up he wrote that he "created" them, so he must have recorded it on his Ipod. I can only imagine what that sounds like, one lonely neckbeard chanting in some kind of faux-Gregorian monk impression. If he actually got a choir together then I'm impressed. Actually, OP, mind sharing those litanies of yours? I'd like to listen.

>>2646978
OP,

The Emperor protects.

This reminds me...

At my FLGW, I was just minding my own business, painting my miniatures, when this Bible Basher son of a bitch started coming in trying to convert us to the power of JEEZZUSSS. Most of us just shrugged him off and ignored him, but not one guy. He fucking went ballistic, yelling something along the lines of "TURN AWAY FROM MY HOLY GOD EMPRAH?! WHAT KIND OF HERESY IS THIS?! I CAST YE OUT, OH INNER DAEMON, STOP THIS POSSESSION OF THIS MORTAL AND BY THE NAME OF THE EMPERAHS HOLY LIGHT I RETURN ONE OF YOUR CHILDREN TO YOUR THRONE"

The entire store cracked up laughing, and the Bible Basher was dumbstruck.

Needless to say, you are not alone, OP. You are not alone.

Sup, /tg/

This not a place for theistic debate, I know. However, I believe that there truly is some kind of deity, it is wise enough to know that, no matter what word you use to address it, it knows and appreciates that you are calling out to it, praying, asking for broad favours.

I pray to The Unconquered Sun. You have no idea how much this gets me through the day. Praying to the Sun, trusting in His burning Light to turn me into an impossible avatar of perfection. Litanies of AWESOME, Litanies of EXALTED, even personal litanies have been created and memorized by my legions of followers to listen to when I need support. In fact, I have called upon His Awesomeness to help me when I was in Mortal Peril from a continent-sized world-creating dragon of purest shadow trying to assault my kingdom.

The reason I say this, /tg/, is that I know that there is someone else who does this. Are you there, /tg/? Are you there?

>>2647260

This needs to be the standard reaction to Evangelicals.

>>2646978

requesting shoop of emperor with obamas face

>>2646978
Am I the only to find strange similarities between 40k God Emperor cults and Lovecraftians cults?

>>2647293

You fool! Obama is the Lord of Change, not our holy undying Emperor!

>>2647298

Not God Emperor exactly, Chaos would be more like it. Nurgle could fit in one of his novels..

>>2647309

But, Papa Nurgle loves you...

>>2647313
"Cthulhu loves me this I know,
For the High Priest tells me so,
He won't eat me, no not yet,
He's our Lord all dank and wet..."

I truly want to believe that The Emperor exists.

I truly, truly do.

>>2647353

He does, my brother. But in the far distant future. Yet, that does not stop us from preaching about his coming.

>>2647360

>>2647353

Or is GW the true Faith and /tg/ is the Peoples Front of Judea?

>>2647360

Sorry to bother you good sir, but as a loyal follower of C'tan, the nightbring-..

Wait, that was for Adeptus Mechanicus folks. How many silly sects do you silly imperials have? Seriously, even Orks are less confusing.

>>2647371

See you during the first Ork War.

>>2647353

the Emperor was born some six thousand years ago and walks among us. when He has at last shaped us into our full potential, He will reveal Himself and lead us to our Golden Age of Humanity.

>>2647382

That part can be determined later by revisionists who ruin everything we work for years later.

>>2647408

>Gork n' Mork wud luv to hav word wiv' you umies!

I know the Tau'Va is less of a religion and more of a philosophy, but how would one go about integrating its lessons into their life apart from general selflessness?

>>2647420

I wouldn't call someone's philosophy reliable, if their army recruitment involves castration.

>>2647420

What are its lessons?

>>2647430
The Nation-State is all.
The Individual has no import beyond granting the state strength.

>>2647420
mind control

>>2647420

Join the local Communist Party.

I actually WANT to be into a religion. I was raised first as a Catholic and then into Christianity (all the shit's the same, really). Now, I'm agnostic. If there were actual proof of some greater power, I would be all over that right away. If something could actually grant me divine, or not-so-divine, help through life, I would latch onto that and be zealous about it.

The shit there now are all just fairy tales and loop roles while nearly retcon everything else and completely ignore history. I asked a religion nut about dinosaurs, and he actually said that it's part of God's plan to test us with demonly monsters and false idols. Come on, now.

>>2647428
>>2647444
>>2647450

I hate you all so much. For fuck sake, Tau do not work that way.

It's rather satisfying to know one is not alone in the dark moments, that others have called upon the Holy Name of He-Who-Will-Take-The-Throne-Of-Earth when they most needed Him.

Praise be the Emperor, brothers. We walk in the light of the Throne, in the blessed days when the secrets of technology are known to Man. Let us be content to know He is among us, marshaling His strength to unify all Mankind when His time has come.

If you are among US, Lord, you have but to call and we will answer.

>>2647463
I have a religion you might be interested in. Man as his own god. Your idol as yourself. A religion that does not deny the impulses of humanity, or try to chain them into submission, one that uses those impulses to focus ones desires and act as a driving force for ones own goals.

Stp worshipping me, assholes.

By the way, Iraq... Afghanistan... exterminatus. Much easier.

>>2647477

I think the Emperor is a pretty good incarnation of this, to a degree. It depends on which aspects of human nature you want to focus on.

>>2647516
But that would destroy all the precious oil...I mean kill all the poor oppressed people we're going to save by bombing.

The emperor hates worship. You are making him cry OP. I hope you're happy.

>>2647520

Will I eventually power my armies on oil?!?!

NO!

Hey Faggots,

My name is the Emperor, and I hate every single one of you. All of you are fat, retarded, no-lifes who spend every second of their day looking at stupid ass hololiths. You are everything bad in the Imperium. Honestly, have any of you ever purged any xenos or heretics? I mean, I guess it's fun being heretical and letting them live, but you all take to a whole new level. This is even worse than jerking off to pictures in the Directorica Imperialis.

Don't be a stranger. Just hit me with your best shot. I'm pretty much perfect. I was Emperor of a galaxy-spanning Imperium and starter on my Chaos-God Pwning team. What sports do you play, other than "jack off to memetically-infested Tau pornography"? I also get straight life support, and have a banging hot bodyguard (They just fed me 1000 psykers; Shit was SO astromnomnomican). You are all xeno-loving mutant heretics who should just kill yourselves. Thanks for listening

Pic related, it's my Custode

>>2647522

he's a little weirded out by it, but it's nothing he hasn't seen before.

>>2647523

Yes, if you are an Ork.

Throne be praised brothers. I seriously and mindlessly chant "The Emperor protects" again and again before exams and other moments of dire peril. Former hardcore catholic turned atheist.

Despite my atheism, I have a habit of anthromorpising concepts and things into gods or spirits I know don't exist. The booze god, machine spirits (even before I discovered 40k), and so forth.

Now it's the Emperor. I even go so far as using phrases such as "oh my god-emperor" in everyday conversation and referring to Jesus, Allah, Yahweh, etc. as the "Dark Gods". Keeping mankind in thrall to ignorance and slavery.

>>2647529
>astromnomnomican
Fuck, I lol'd.

>>2647533

*anthropomorphising

>>2647518
1. Do not give opinions or advice unless you are asked.
2. Do not tell your troubles to others unless you are sure they want to hear them.
3. When in another’s lair, show him respect or else do not go there.
4. If a guest in your lair annoys you, treat him cruelly and without mercy.
5. Do not make sexual advances unless you are given the mating signal.
6. Do not take that which does not belong to you unless it is a burden to the other person and he cries out to be relieved.
7. Acknowledge the power of magic if you have employed it successfully to obtain your desires. If you deny the power of magic after having called upon it with success, you will lose all you have obtained.
8. Do not complain about anything to which you need not subject yourself.
9. Do not harm little children.
10. Do not kill non-human animals unless you are attacked or for your food.
11. When walking in open territory, bother no one. If someone bothers you, ask him to stop. If he does not stop, destroy him.

Basically this.

Ia! Ia! Cthulhu fhtagn!

>>2647532

And am I a filthy vulgar xenos? No, those pathetic creatures will implode, wither and die under their own nihilistic natures as long as I live.

>>2647477
ITT Satanism

>>2647539

Nice furry laws furfag.

>>2647533
That's just human nature. We need to associate human thoughts and feelings to everything. If there was one instinct I could wipe from the human race, this would be it.

>>2647544
Jesus was an extraterrestrial.

I have been known to appeal to The Emprah from time to time. I figure if there is a god it doesn't matter what I call it, and Emprah is way better than Yahweh.

>>2647552
They're actually the eleven satanic rules of the earth. Don't ask me how I know that, just don't.

>>2647529
Well played.

>>2647555

No he's not, Von Daniken.

>>2647544

The Emperor is literate. Doesn't hesitate to use violence in the service of Mankind's glory. And doesn't not perform weak shit such a cursing a tree for not growing out of season.

The Emperor is a good of enlightenment and *PROGRESS*. Not hippy castration faggotry.

This. This this this.

>>2647585
Oh yes. "Mankind requires dogma." WTF? I'll tell him where he can shove his "dogma" fucking fuck-up self proclaimed messiah.

There are worse things to pray to. The Emprah is pretty badass.

>>2647597
And no-one pretends he's real.

I wouldn't pray to the Emprah as a being, but as a concept it's pretty cool. I could worship a concept like that.

>>2647592
Samefag reporting in-- There is ONE thing LaVey had going for him that was sorta awesome.His (assumed, since his real name according to Wikipedoland is Howard) middle name: Szandor.

I've used that shit for Chaos cultists. Seriously.

The concept of being some dead guy you worship?

>>2647608

You mean the concept of HUMAN SUPREMACY?

MANKIND UBER ALLES!

The universe belongs to us, it just doesn't know it yet.

>>2647614
No, the concept of a perfect human being representing science, progress and the protection of humanity.

>>2647616
FUCK YES YOU ARE THE BEST MANIFEST DESTINY EVER

>>2647620

A dead perfect human being, propped up on a golden chair and made into the very thing he abhorred? Yeah, awesome.

>>2647580

that's Bible Jesus.

History Jesus kicked the shit out of banks, kicked the shit out of romans, and doesn't afraid of anything.

>>2647629
I'm sorry, but your derp derp derp is showing.

Humans aren't all that great, even in the context of self-replicating chemical processes living on parts of the biosphere of this one particular smallish ball of rock circling our smallish sun.

Einstein is right. Faster than Light travel is impossible. The only way earthlings will explore the universe is if they're robots.

We have a guy in our group who is a bit of a god-botherer so I use the name for the angels and good deities of the campaign world.

This pasta is a little cold

>>2647612

Got to give him credit on that. Though he, like a friend of mine had a habit of giving ridiculous names to some of his children. My friend is a follower of LaVey's brand of satanism, (though I have no idea why, it's mostly by mouth service and not act) and decided to name his son after the lord of the fourth plane of hell. That poor kid is going to get it from every bible thumping teacher that ever runs near his path. Damn pity.

>>2647657
FUCK OFF LORGAR I'M NOT JOINING YOU

>>2647522
Just what in the friggity fuck is going on in that image?

Just to chime in, yes I would worship the Emperor. Shit, if there were a church for him nearby I would attend, though I am agnostic currently.

Think about it. "GOD". He hates humanity and the first thing he teaches us is "well, I fucked up and made you wrong. You suck".

Then you have the Emperor.
"Humans are the best. I'll prove it by fighting the GALAXY."

>>2647642
Shut the fuck up.
-EMPRAH

>>2647616

damn straight, fucking hippies and ecoterror fags.

Earth is our cradle, our birthplace. Sacred and worthy of reverence it is. BUT IT SHOULDN'T BE OUR GRAVE. "It's the only home we've got, my ass".

That's defeatism, right there. Huddling on our little ball of dust in a non-descript spiral arm, waiting for the planet and sun to give out. Neo-luddites and morons.

We can fix her up better than new when we have the resources of countless worlds and stars.

The Emperor may not exist. But the concepts he stands for.

Order
Progress
Enlightenment
The power of Science
The Unity of the Species
And most of all, our "destiny". Our purpose. To reach out into the vastness and become masters of all we survey.

>>2647602

I think this is a curious notion that ought to be addressed. At the risk of sounding offensive, it's my conviction that religion is a self-deception that enables people to cope with certain things in life. As such, however unfounded it may be, it has a positive function in the personal life of the believer.

However, if you subscribe to a faith that you factually know to be completely fictitious, will you still benefit as much from it? It would seem a bit hollow to me.

>>2647657
This assumes a) physical constants are time variant.
b) anything will be around to take advantage of it.

>>2647633

Bible Jesus is all the Jesus there is. Didn't exist. Seriously, the historical records written by "contemporaries" concerning Jebus are centuries more recent.

At least we bear no illusions about our God-Emperor.
He exists only through our faith and embodies our finest traits.

>>2647629
Humans need that sort of shit. We just don't realize it until we take it too far.

>>2647690

ever hear of Glycon?
dude was literally a sock puppet. he still has followers to this day.

>>2647690
It's called cognitive dissonance. People do it all the time as a survival reflex. I believe something that I know is a complete fabrication because it makes me feel better, is conveniant, or I don't like the truth. (eg I know my wife murdered our son but I'll pretend she didn't _especially_ to myself)

Just the idea of The Emperor is good enough to respect. A human being embodying all the best traits of humanity without any pretensions of caring about anything but the well-being of the human race.

>>2647687

There should be some kinda Human Supremacist movement. But I'm drawing up blanks for a "WHITE POWER!" kinda slogan.

>>2647734
6 BILLION MORE

>>2647734
Like the neo-nazi 18 words, but with 'white' replaced by 'human'.

>>2647734
MAN POWER?
>>2647736
Or this. This is better. But why stop there? Why not 100billion? Or 100trillion? More people. More People! Until the earth is choked with our throngs!

>>2647690
To be quite serious for a moment.

I think I would get more out of it if I were to know the Truth up front. Not only that, but the possibility that our Faith could be that catalyst for His creation would give me more hope that anything else.

Hell just on a simple level, who would you rather worship (if anyone):

-dude in the sky no one has ever seen that you are told hates you

-dude under the ground that you never seen that you are told hates you

-dude who is 12 feet tall that you have seen personally, who can use his mind to talk to people two billion light years away.

>>2647756
Not just Earth, but space. There should be no room for aliens anywhere in the universe. Literally no room.

There's nowhere else for us to live, guys.

I know it's hard to accept, but there's not going to be anywhere else in the galaxy with the correct gravity/atmosphere/biosphere/stellar-energy. Just airless rocks and crushing depths and pools of molten lead.

>>2647756

We go off-world, durrr.

That's where the science and progress bits of the God-Emperor belief system come into play.

>>2647774
It is the duty of all mankind to gift the stars to our offspring.

>>2647776

1) Terraforming
2) So many freaking worlds, a couple will have at least partially livable biomes

>>2647766
At this point I'd offer veneration to any very tall guy in golden armour.

>>2647776
It's silly to make such sweeping statements given the impossibly vast size of just our own galaxy.

>>2647792
Terraforming venus is about as unrealistic as terraforming jupiter. People have just been trained by sci-fi to think it's possible.

>>2647809
So your argument is that despite the incredibly long odds, it's sure to exist somewhere?

So maybe there's like 3 earthlike planets in the galaxy. We just need to explore all 300 billion stars to find them, right?

At slower-than-light speeds. (FTL is impossible)

lol

By the throne, I am seriously considering starting a "Church of the Emperor Awaiting".

We must prepare the way for the future of hope and awesomeness the Emperor envisioned and planned for Humanity.

I can't see how the idea of Earth being the only inhabitable planet in the universe can be anything but absolutely obscene arrogance.

>>2647831
I'd totally sign up.

>>2647814

Mars.

terraform Mars.

>>2647776
Earth (Terra) is on the trailing edge of a spiral arm.

Basically, the fucking outback of the Galaxy. We can't see shit from here.

Besides, by the time we develop FTL travel, terraforming a planet will be no big deal.

Miklagaard has been our home
For twenty years or more
We've lent our axes, spears and swords
In service of the emperor

We are loyal warriors
That's the oath we gave
To protect the emperor
Even to a violent grave

Our loyality was always firm
We kept our given word
On these southern battlefields
Our northern war cries roared

Battles have been fought
Many gave their lives
But all who died by axe and sword
Were called to hall up high

Our time here
Is now at end
Can't help but reminisce
A cold spring day
So long ago
When we set out to sea

We!
Set out from Svitjod's Shores!
With dreams of fame and gold!
And!
The work of weaving Norns!
Was unknown

We were loyal warriors
That's the oath we gave
To protect the emperor
Even to the grave

It's time to take farewell
We have been resolved
From the sacred oath we gave
It's time to go back home

Our time here
Is now at end
Our memories will stay
Of Miklagård
Our southern home
Until the end of days

We!
Set out from Svitjod's Shores!
With honor and rewards!
We return back home!
We return back home!
With honor and rewards!
We return back home!

Start a website, recieve neckbeard clerics.

>>2647831
We'll be there.

>>2647814

Do you have evidence to support you? Because, from what i've heard, it is possible. It'd require centuries of work, but it could be done.

>>2647828

FTL is currently beyond our scientific understanding, and our ability to create. Saying anything is impossible is somewhat foolish. Everything ever held true can and will be overturned at some point in the future. Science is a dynamic every changing framework, not a dogmatic, everlasting set of laws.

>>2647856
Nonsense. We can never penetrate the crystal spheres, so we will never leave this solar system.

>>2647837
We must petition Dan Abnett (hallowed be his name) to put pen to paper and write the Lectitio Divinitatus.

THIS

I want the Emperor to be real so we can turn Earth into a fuckhuge palace.

that settles it, /tg/.

next time the Census rolls around I am putting The Imperial Cult as my religion.

LOVE YOUR EMPEROR

>>2647687
Didn't notice this post. Must have tl;dr'ed it

>>2647943

Exactly

>>2647964
LECTITIO DIVINITATUS

>>2647847


Holy fuck thank you and may the Emperor protect!

Seriously, look at that cover art. That's fucking THOR in a god-damn boat grabbing the WORLD SERPENTS FUCKING TONGUE AND SMASHING IT TO FUCK!

HOLY SHIT!

>>2647964
That's it /tg/ we are all putting down our religion as Imperial Cult. If fucking Jedi can have a religion so can we!

I used to write purity seals and stick them on my PC case when things broke. I like to imagine I placated the Machine Spirit.

>>2647975

WAIT, THAT MOTHERFUCKER ISN'T EVEN IN A BOAT! FUCK BOATS, I'LL JUST WALK ON THE WATER.

>>2647964

His Faith is no mere cult. It is the way to Mankind's destiny.

A more suitable name to encompass our creed is needed.

Suggestions:
-Church of the Emperor Awaiting, as other fa/tg/uy suggested
-Church of the Saviour Emperor
-Lectitio Divinatus

Any others?

i have sacrificed old and broken technologies to free the machine spirit inside them in order to fix more current things.

>>2648010
Temple of the Savior Emperor.

>>2648010
Church of the Emperor Ascendant.

>>2648010
I think I might be speaking for all of us when I say that we want to avoid the word "church".

>-Lectitio Divinatus
Will do just fine.

>>2648030
>Church of the Andromeda Ascendant.

I pray to Cthulhu, but worship nothing.

>>2648031
Fuck yes Lectitio, you are the best cult ever.

>>2648010

Lectitio Divinitatus seems to be the fluffiest of the three.

however, it is probably copyrighted.

How awesome would it be to get our "establishment" tax exempt status?

>>2648039
When in doubt, make up a latin-sounding name. Fake latin: cult tested, Emperor approved.

>>2648045
One step at a time, one step at a time...

FUND IT

ITT: Scientology 2.0

>>2648066
Hey now, we're starting off with good intentions. If it goes the L. Ron way, well that's too bad.

We must discuss this on IRC on something. A great council of the faithful to lay down the tenets of our faith.

What say you?

I have always called and considered myself an individualist, call me a faggot and just wanting to stand out, i dont care. I have always been confident in some sort of higher power but I've also always been sure that it doesn't love us in the way Christianity makes it out. I believe that only those who have faith in themselves are ever capable of having true faith in something else. I believe only those who honestly work hard at their own goal deserve any help from a higher power. These ideals have carried over to my political, philosophical, and religious views. I have been called egotistical, a maniac, heartless, and my personal favorite "an ayn randist fucker who would never understand what people were fighting for".

I have prayed to the emperor, i have made sacrifices to long dead gods. I have spilt blood for khorne. I curse tzeentch whenever my dice show ones, especially my 20s.

>>2648075

A conclave!

>>2648066

His Light shines on all true Men. His word and acts do can not be bought.

We have a concrete goal. Not some self-fulfillment "thetan" new-age heresy.

>>2648075

I dunno, >>2647687 summed it up pretty good already

If this is going to IRC, I'll finally have a reason to download a client.

Does it strike anyone else as odd that a religion centered around worshiping a perfect human does not already exist?

I think the best thing for Humanity would be a great big helping of narcissism. Yes, we are THAT awesome, just go with it already.

EMPEROLOGY

aww fuck, we're autosaging.

>>2647687
Just so you know, I cppy pasted your post to my copypasta folder. I will employ your beautiful words later.

>>2648098

A conclave means an election for the Pope.

What we need is something like the Council of Nicaea

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Council_of_Nicaea

"With the creation of the creed, a precedent was established for subsequent general (ecumenical) councils of Bishops' (Synods) to create statements of belief and canons of doctrinal orthodoxy— the intent being to define unity of beliefs for the whole of Christendom."

We're doing this thread again.

>>2647687

This this this. It's kind of funny, actually; my personal goals and beliefs mirror those that the Emperor wished humanity to absorb. Progress, the absolute clarity of science, the banishment of gods and idols, etc.
