[Superspace-discuss] Themes

[Richard S. <ri...@no...>]

I have been looking at www.jesuschristsuperstore.net and it has given me
an idea.  What about instead of having rebels vs empire or humans vs
klingons or red vs blue, we have teams based on world religions?  (For
instance, all the Islamic ships could be equipped with suicide bombs.
And Christian ships would find themselves ressurected by Jesus's ship)

The only problem with this idea is that there would be few people it
wouldn't piss off.  I mean if we did an Atheist team (suffering from the
in-game handicap of only having one life!), and well as the religions,
then *everyone* would be angry.  Probably because the game would then
become a true reflection of the world.

What do you think?

"There has grown up in the minds of certain groups in this country the
notion that because a man or corporation has made a profit out of the
public for a number of years, the government and the courts are charged
with the duty of guaranteeing such profit in the future, even in the face
of changing circumstances and contrary to public interest. This strange
doctrine is not supported by statute nor common law. Neither indivudals
nor corporations have any right to come into court and ask that the clock
of history be stopped, or turned back."
