The time is close to You. The hand of God will punish every one of the infidels of the called Church or War!:flamedevi
Tremble by the power of the one... of the truth!

I assume you're talking about the "War Church", not "Church or War", although your english is better than my spanish.

You talk big, but it doesn't seem like you have reckoned with the power of the almighty War Church. You also forget that we're all on the same side here. Petty vendettas such as the one you seem to have merely create internal strife. We should put aside our different ideologies for the greater good of our glorious civilization.

So the Babylonians have sent a spy into our midst to destroy our integrity. He shall be dealt with presently.....

if there's one thing i can't stand, it's religous fanatics....where's Killer......?

If you'll want to challenge the mighty Knights of the War Church, can you at least pls organise your movement a bit? So that we can at least have some kind of informative debate or something. ;)

and the first thing for such a movement would be to become a regular citizen... i see you are not registered!

The prophet do not need a human permission!
The prophet only come to say one thing:
'Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth'.
The Church of War (I love the polemic!) woul pay for the blood of the poor, of the warriors...
Tremble infidels!
The prophet is here!

Hmmm. This is quite strange, especially since I didn't think we were that close to discovering monotheism.:confused:

God send me because he want to prepare the way to His son...
They shall beat their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more

Yes... for example, Your body is actually a temple, so your body is of God, so Youre under my administration... because I'm the God manager here on Earth.:crazyeye:

Does that mean we will get culture points from building units?

The oracle is one wonder I always build, because it's great for keeping your whiners quiet while you march off to war.

"Godinex", could you please stop talking like that. There might be some rather religious people here in real life *cough, hack*, that might take offense to you acting like some sort of prophet. At least say "The Gods" or something, it makes you seem less serious. Some people may already be bothered enough by all the fake religious stuff regarding war over in this forum.

(PLEASE NOTE THAT NOTHING IN THIS POST IS A PERSONAL ATTACK ON A PERSON OR A GROUP! I JUST GOT HIT WITH A PET PEVE!)

Ohh, this brings up a very interesting concept. Should the veiw of the "rather religious people" take precedence
over those such as Godlinex, the War Church, and myself?
Who is right and who is wrong?
Is it possible to tell?
Who has that right to make that decision? (in the big picture, in this case it is the modderators)

This is a Demo game, so where are you drawing the line? Just because it may bother one or two, should the whole be shushed? Mr. Miller, I am also a deeply religious person, yet I am bothered by your ideas on censorship. Maybe you could say something to make you sound less serious.

Who is right and who is wrong?

Leave the religious ramblings to the OT forum; we're all to have fun here. ;)

In spite of its name, I declare the War Church to have nothing religious in its nature and substance. It's just a militaristic platform. A fun club.

Peace. :smoke:

I actually like the pseudo-biblical ramblings. They don't hurt anybody, and the provide amusement. Considering our current diplomatic situation, we should be happy for anything amusing. I would be saddened to see this thread go. You have the domestic departments blessing Godinex. The people of our nation will need a higher power to turn to as more and more are drafted into the military.

God will show the way to our victory. Come and pray with me for the salvation of the world... so come here and make the law for alliance.http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?threadid=20134

If this gets out of hand, into a religious debate, or I get complaints about it, this thread gets locked. :D

hey duke. as stated above, i can't stand religious fanatics. but if this thread gets locked down, i would love to see the list of people who complained. is that possible? BTW, got a smoke?

I hate censorship as much as you do, I was just trying to ask people politly to not to talk like that, as it was bothering me. I also don't think that really counts as censorship as much as if I had asked a moderator to delete this thread, which I woudn't do.

Again, I would NOT like this thread locked or deleted or anything. That would be censorship, which I hate.

Well, if all Benjamin is asking for is us to speak of "gods" instead of "god", then that does not seem very unreasonable to me. :)

Can we bash the prophets head? Can we poll that decision?

There is nothing wrong with some role-playing and religious sarcasm as long as nobody is offended by it and that it fit's in the context of the Demo game IMO.

But we mods are watching this thread ,and we will close it if thing are running out of hand.

it just would be nice to have a "final warning" before you close the thread ;-)

Some of You ask me for a Miracle!

Hastening towards the caller, the disbelievers will say: "This is a hard Day."[B]

I would SERIOUSLY advise you not to treat the prophet Muhammad and Qur'anic verses as some sort of a joke. They are treated with the utmost respect by muslims, and if any muslims saw how you had just posted verse 54:1 of the Quran in some sort of prophet imitation "joke", almost calling youself Muhammad or equal with him, and without noting that it had been taken from the Qur'an, they would be VERY offended.

OK! What the Hell can a Prophet say in this forum? The Gods wanna make laws, can the Gods make laws? (I fear too much democracy in this game will affect the good intentions of the One... pray, pray because the anger of the One is close... and make all the childrens that You can)

Some people are just a little touchier than others Godinex. I wouldn't worry about it too much. Just try to make your prophecy as vague and incomprehensible as you possibly can. That is the nature of prophecy anyway, is it not?;)

So Go and buy candy! Drink water and celebrate the increase of Your treasury!

:eek:

I am confused, Great Prophet. There are wise men within our empire that say there are more gods than the One. They give convincing proofs in the Socratic style, and I must admit I find myself accepting these blasphemies as truth from time to time. Can the One give us a miracle, perhaps by smiting the sniveling ruler of the Greeks, the most loathsome Alexander? I want to believe......:cry:

AH! Alexaander is a son of the Diablo!
The devil is with him!
He say one Time:

Take 555 and plus 111 and You will be happy forever!

Alexander is insane don listen Him! The miracle woul be... pretty soon!

Eyrei the miracle is You! Believe and keep the faith on the church of the one because the One is with us!

Oh Prophet!

We saw the miracle!

WE BELIEVE!

But did you see, THE ONE decided to punish us! The whole world is against us because our Citizens dropped of believing in THE ONE!

He has to show them! Punish all misbelievers!

Don´t worry, be tapis... The One hear You every day, soon and with enough sacrifices his angry will end. By the time, cut some troaths and bring them to me, I will present the gift and the Other (not the One) willl help You in all Your battles.

Go on sweet child of mine.

You must only profess your faith, and ask for the blessing of the prophet. For it is he that is the voice of the One in this world.

i profeess my faith and beg forgiveness for listening ignorantly to the words of those false prophets. Will the One bring glory to Greater Cormyr and it's residents?

This say the ONE to the sinful people of Cormyr and to his most beloved son Skilord:

¿Do You think that my anger could be shutted by your words? The ONE say this to Skilord of Cormyr: take 3 virgin women, one sheep and two yigüirros to my children Godinex. The women need to be about 19 years old, one blonde, one red head and the other latin like, bring them to my servant.
With the sheep, go to the desert and make it to eat sand. In the sand You would find a large sword and in the stomach of the sheep (plus a lot od sand) a red gem. Convert it in a ring.
Use this ring to hit all the citizens of Cormyr (except the 3 virgins) and Your people will have an alliance with the OTHER. Later, bring the sword to the dammed King Alexander. At the rigth time, the sword will fall impulsed by my hand and all the greek country will be gifted to the people of Cormyr. This is the word of the ONE, to the sinful people of Coymir!

And this say Godinex, Voice of the One on the earth:

Take the Yigüirros and 1 Oz of ice cream, fry them until they sing and later eat with enough lettuce.
Bon apetite!

of i profeess my faith and beg forgiveness for listening ignorantly to the words of those false prophets. Will the One bring glory to Greater Cormyr and it's residents?

Hmmm. It seems close contact with the one is beginning to effect the sanity of our prophet, as would be expected. Summon all of the scribes and wisemen, so that they may sift through the mortal words to find the eternal truths of the One.

Oh Eyrei! You are so blind!
You are the neck of our church, You Know the power of the One YOU SAW THE GIFT OF THE PROPHET and still dubt?

I am sorry, Great Prophet. The wise men say that viewing the One will blind a person and that hearing his words would deafen, and that any who have divine truth imparted directly upon them shall go mad. I do not doubt the One or his prophet, it is only that this new science we call theology has made me wish to better understand His words. Maybe this new school of learning needs to be better understood before mortals pretend to understand the words of the prophet.

If I speak in the tongues of barbarians and of greeks, but have not trust in the OTHER, I am only monkey-cow or a clanging soccer ball. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not trust in the voice of the one, I am nothing.
So Eyrei, Science can pass, war can pass but the words of the prophet... well... You know the rest.
Is your passport to eternity.:cool:

what do you say of these new infidels who claim that you have lost the One's favor?

The One said to Me: "See, I will send venomous snakes among you, vipers that cannot be charmed, and they will bite you,"
So, I claimed to the ONE: "I have done no wrong, yet they are ready to attack me.
Arise to help me; look on my plight!
O ONE, God Almighty, the God of Phoenatica,
rouse yourself to punish all these conspirators;
show no mercy to wicked traitors!"
And happen that On the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month of Conan, the edict commanded by the king was to be carried out. On this day the enemies of the One and his followers had hoped to overpower them, but now the tables were turned and the Childs od ligth got the upper hand over those who hated them.
The Unos assembled in their cities in all the provinces of Phoenatica to attack those seeking their destruction. No one could stand against them, because the people of all the other nationalities were afraid of them

Well, we certainly don't want to end up like the Americans, so I suggest all of you blasphemers repent.

ok. than what about "pontiff of the church of the one"? or "archpriest of the church of the one"?

I am using my political clout to proclaim myself "Archbishop of Istar", if the High Priest has no objections.;)

I want to be Archbishop of New Cormyr!

There is no want, only are you should be... clouded your future are young Skilorder...

I see GF. Thank you for the wisdom.

Rules to be ordered:

You need to know something first:

1. The Church Is One
2. The Church Is Holy
3. The Prophet and Bishops:
The ONE, the major God of All, called Godinex to be the chief shepherd of his Church . He gave Godinex the task of strengthening the other apostles in their faith, ensuring that they taught only what was true. Godinex led the Church in proclaiming the gospel and making decisions.
Early Unos (as are known the ONE followers) writings tell us that Godinex followers, the bishops of Asphinxia(who from the earliest times have been called by the affectionate title of "Pepe`s," which means "Cool man who spokes with the prophet Godinex and the major of the Gods many times"), continued to exercise Godinex ministry in the Church in the new provinces.
The Prophet is the legal representant of the One in the Earth and the PEPEs or bishops are representants of Godinex in their own land.

5. HOW The ONE SPEAKS TO US
As from the first, The ONE speaks to his Church through the Sacred Book (only knowed by the prophet) and through sacred Tradition. To make sure we understand him, he guides the Church’s teaching authority—the yigüisterium—so it always interprets the text and Tradition accurately. This is the gift of infallibility.

Like the three legs on a stool, the Text, Tradition, and the mYigÑuisteium are all necessary for the stability of the Church and to guarantee sound doctrine.

6. HOW The ONE DISTRIBUTES HIS GIFTS
The One promised he would not leave us orphans but would send the Holy Soul to guide and protect us. He gave the sacraments to heal, feed, and strengthen us. The four sacraments —war baptism, conciliation or confession, holy orders or matrimony, and the secret one —are not just symbols. They are signs that actually convey One`s grace and love.

The ONe constantly uses material things to show his love and power. After all, matter is not evil. When he created the physical universe, everything The One created was "pretty good" .

During the ministry of Godinexm The One healed, fed, and strengthened people through humble elements such as mud, water, cookies, oil, and whisky. He could have performed his miracles directly, but he preferred to use material things to bestow his grace.

In his first public miracle Godinex turned Eyrei into a rock superstar (with 3 heads) and change a lots of fruits into wine, at the request of his people He blessed all the wars of the nation.

7. Holy Orders
Others are called to share specially in One`s priesthood. In the Old history, even though the Americans was a kingdom of priests, the ONE called certain men to a special priestly ministry. In the New history, even though Unos are a kingdom of priests, Godinex calls certain men to a special priestly ministry.

This sacrament is called holy orders. Through it priests are ordained and thus empowered to serve the Church as pastors, teachers, and spiritual fathers who heal, feed, and strengthen One’s people—most importantly through preaching and the administration of the sacraments.

Do You undestand all of this?

YOUR TASKS AS A Uno
Your tasks as a Uno, no matter what your age, are three:

Know your One's faith. You cannot live your faith if you do not know it, and you cannot share with others what you do not first make your own. Learning your Ones faith takes some effort, but it is effort well spent because the study is, quite literally, infinitely rewarding.

Live your One faith. Your One`s faith is a public thing. It is not meant to be left behind when you leave home. But be forewarned: Being a public Uno involves risk and loss. You will find some doors closed to you. You will lose some friends. You will be considered an outsider. But, as a consolation, remember our One`s words to the persecuted: "Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in the Golden Asphinxia".

Spread your One`s faith. Godinex wants us to bring the whole world into captivity to the truth, and the truth is the One himself, who is "the one way, and the one truth, and the real life". Spreading the faith is a task not only for bishops, priests, and religious—it is a task for all Unos.

Just before the revelation, The One told to his apostles, "Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you".

If we want to observe all that One commanded, if we want to believe all he taught, we must follow him through his Church. This is our great challenge—and our great privilege.

I will be holding my first concert in Thebes in one week to celebrate the completion of the Forbidden Palace. The three heads are allegorical, though I have yet to figure out the meaning.:cool:

all hail godinex the all knowing prophet!!
listen to his words!!
look at his smilies!!

for he is the most intelligent person in the world!!!

I will not escape the darkness;
a flame will wither my shoots,
and the breath of One`s mouth will carry me away.
Let me not deceive myself by trusting what is worthless,
for me will get nothing in return.
Before my time he will be paid in full,
and my branches will not flourish.

Fear the One your Deity and serve him.
Hold fast to him and take your oaths in his name.
He is your praise; he is your God, who performed for you those great and awesome wonders you saw with your own eyes.

HA! A denier of the church of the one! Go get him and hang him in our temples to show the unbeliever to the good people!

This 'group' most certainly still exists. What you don't know is that we in reality hold all the power in Phoenatica. With the One behind us we are unstoppable!!!!!!! The recent pact with the aliens..............................

OMG, they took Eyrei...again. Looks like another 3 or 4 days of some weird sexual probing....

That explains everything...

The gods hear all of your words. The ONE lives, but is preparing his return...

Hope he comes back in time for our victory party ;-)

"As the ark of the covenant of the ONE came into the city, all Phoenatica shouted with a great shout, so that the earth resounded. When the enemies heard the noise of the shout, they said, "What does the noise of this great shout in the camp of the Phoenaticans mean?" Then they understood that the ark of the ONE had come into the camp" 1 Godinex 25, 30 - 32.

To celebrate the victory of the ONE over the infidels, the Church of the ONE anounce the next visits of His prime priests to the provinces of Ameri and Kashmir in for the celebration of the Ascension of our Godness in Aug. 09.

Greetings from the ONE

I will be opening the celebration in honor of the One in PDX on the 9th, but then I must retire to meditate for two days. I will close the celebration on the 11th. All citizens should be present or risk the displeasure of our Almighty deity. Remember, that all of the great leaders of our history sprang directly from the body of the One, and that without His presence, the world would be a much different place.

The end of the time is near! Our deity is coming to us! Vitit the cathedral of the one in delphi! All citizens coming to our cathedral in delphi or the temple of the one in PDX will be assured salvation of their souls.
If the ONE will not see u there, you will surely be damned to hell (or maybe england) at the end of times!

Thats the true dictatorship which is the base of every good religion!

I love my prime priests! The holy spirit of the ONE fullfills them!

Godinex, I politely ask you not to sacrifice goats in the middle of a major road, during rush hour, in my metropolis, Heliopolis. It's not that I don't believe in the Divine. It's just that my citizens do not want to sit in traffic. I should of had you arrested for disturbing the peace, but I figured that I would let you go. We do have mountians around the metro, you could sacrifice there.

Hear the word of the ONE ,
you ruler of Heliopolis;
listen to the law of our Deity,
you people of Kashmir!
"The multitude of your sacrifices-
what are they to me?" says the ONE .
"I have more than enough of burnt offerings,
of rams and the fat of fattened animals;
I have no pleasure
in the blood of bulls and lambs and goats.
When you come to appear before me,
who has asked this of you,
this trampling of my courts?"

So, Zarn Divine Hero, Catholic Republican Civ3 Demogame- Mayor of Heliopolis, 1st Census Officer, Real Estate Agent, Kashmir Branch Officer of NAFN, Domestic Leader Hear the word of the ONE You will see things so that you might know that the ONE is a Highest Deity; besides him there is no other: Godinex, my prophet will move the mountains near your metro.

I would only be able to move them with the help of a divine power. No man, can move a mountain without the help of the divine.

edit: okay

Done, Zarn Dou You still doubt?

I always believed. I really did not want others to know, because I was afraid that I would be an outcast. I don't care what others think of me anymore. I will do what the Divine wants.

Oh Zarn! You will be with the ONE at the end of the times!

The word of the one is folly. Believe not the words of this old and feeble man, for he seeks to turn you away from the splendors of the mortal world. For as the tongues of mordrid lapse around your feet and drag you into its fiery pits, only those who remain loyal to the Diablo will be sparred. For the time of the Diablo's reckoning is at hand!

The time is coming, and has come, when you will be scattered, each to his own home. The world will leave me all alone. Yet I am not alone, for The ONE is with me.
I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! The ONE have overcome the world.

Every spirit that does not acknowledge The ONE is not from Him. This is the spirit of the antiONE, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world.
You, dear children, are from The ONE and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. They are from the world and therefore speak from the viewpoint of the world, and the world listens to them.

All will succumb to the will of the Diablo.

The ONE brings death and makes alive;
he brings down to the grave and raises up.
The ONE sends poverty and wealth;
he humbles and he exalts.
He raises the poor from the dust
and lifts the needy from the ash heap;
he seats them with princes
and has them inherit a throne of honor.

For the foundations of the earth are the ONE's;
upon them he has set the world.
He will guard the feet of his saints,
but the wicked will be silenced in darkness.

It is not by strength that one prevails;
those who oppose the Lord will be shattered.
He will thunder against them from heaven;
the ONE will judge the ends of the earth.

Heed not the words of this tired old man, for he seeks to corrupt thy mind with his endless babble. For the time of our manifest destiny is at hand. For we are the denizens of the underworld, and thus command the fires of Mordrid that will reak havoc upon those who wish to defy the eternal will of our master. For we will silence those who stand before our influence in defiance and murder those who wish to follow. May the fires of the underworld leach upon thy souls, and drain every last bit of mortality within ye. And as the rivers flow with the blood of the infidels, may thy master pull thee from the gravel, and find thy bloody souls robbed of thy purity, and forged into a servant of darkness.

Diablo has no power over Him. A child could defeat Diablo with the help of the Divine. I will not go with Diablo. I will climb to the highest mountian of the Blue Mountians and pray to God.

I'll throw out my usual warning.

If this gets down to personal insults it will be stopped.

If this would get to personal insults, be sure we would stop them >-)

The Lord's vengeance will come, for the sake of us and everyone who believes. As long as we remember our faith, our names will not be blotted from the book of life -- and he will protect us, from death and beyond!

This are the words to Diabloinex, human-demon of Mordrid:

If you fully obey the ONE your Deity and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the ONE your Deity will set you high above all the nations on earth. All these blessings will come upon you and accompany you if you obey the ONE your Deity :

You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country.
The fruit of your womb will be blessed, and the crops of your land and the young of your livestock-the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks.
Your basket and your kneading trough will be blessed.
You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out.

The ONE will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you. They will come at you from one direction but flee from you in seven.
The ONE will send a blessing on your barns and on everything you put your hand to. The ONE your Deity will bless you in the land he is giving you.
The ONE will establish you as his holy people, as he promised you on oath, if you keep the commands of the ONE your Deity and walk in his ways. Then all the peoples on earth will see that you are called by the name of the ONE, and they will fear you. The ONE will grant you abundant prosperity-in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock and the crops of your ground-in the land he swore to your forefathers to give you.
The ONE will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations but will borrow from none. The ONE will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the ONE your Deity that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom. Do not turn aside from any of the commands I give you today, to the right or to the left, following other gods and serving them.

However, if you do not obey the ONE your Deity and do not carefully follow all his commands and decrees I am giving you today, all these curses will come upon you and overtake you:

You will be cursed in the city and cursed in the country.
Your basket and your kneading trough will be cursed.
The fruit of your womb will be cursed, and the crops of your land, and the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks.
You will be cursed when you come in and cursed when you go out.

The ONE will send on you curses, confusion and rebuke in everything you put your hand to, until you are destroyed and come to sudden ruin because of the evil you have done in forsaking him. The ONE will plague you with diseases until he has destroyed you from the land you are entering to possess. The ONE will strike you with wasting disease, with fever and inflammation, with scorching heat and drought, with blight and mildew, which will plague you until you perish. The sky over your head will be bronze, the ground beneath you iron. The ONE will turn the rain of your country into dust and powder; it will come down from the skies until you are destroyed.
The ONE will cause you to be defeated before your enemies. You will come at them from one direction but flee from them in seven, and you will become a thing of horror to all the kingdoms on earth. Your carcasses will be food for all the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth, and there will be no one to frighten them away. The ONE will afflict you with the boils of America and Greece and with tumors, festering sores and the itch, from which you cannot be cured. The ONE will afflict you with madness, blindness and confusion of mind. At midday you will grope about like a blind man in the dark. You will be unsuccessful in everything you do; day after day you will be oppressed and robbed, with no one to rescue you.
You will be pledged to be married to a woman, but another will take her and ravish her. You will build a house, but you will not live in it. You will plant a vineyard, but you will not even begin to enjoy its fruit. Your ox will be slaughtered before your eyes, but you will eat none of it. Your donkey will be forcibly taken from you and will not be returned. Your sheep will be given to your enemies, and no one will rescue them. Your sons and daughters will be given to another nation, and you will wear out your eyes watching for them day after day, powerless to lift a hand. A people that you do not know will eat what your land and labor produce, and you will have nothing but cruel oppression all your days. The sights you see will drive you mad. The ONE will afflict your knees and legs with painful boils that cannot be cured, spreading from the soles of your feet to the top of your head.
The ONE will drive you and the king you set over you to a nation unknown to you or your fathers. There you will worship other gods, gods of wood and stone. You will become a thing of horror and an object of scorn and ridicule to all the nations where the ONE will drive you.
You will sow much seed in the field but you will harvest little, because locusts will devour it. You will plant vineyards and cultivate them but you will not drink the wine or gather the grapes, because worms will eat them. You will have olive trees throughout your country but you will not use the oil, because the olives will drop off. You will have sons and daughters but you will not keep them, because they will go into captivity. Swarms of locusts will take over all your trees and the crops of your land.
The alien who lives among you will rise above you higher and higher, but you will sink lower and lower. He will lend to you, but you will not lend to him. He will be the head, but you will be the tail.
All these curses will come upon you. They will pursue you and overtake you until you are destroyed, because you did not obey the ONE your Deity and observe the commands and decrees he gave you. They will be a sign and a wonder to you and your descendants forever. Because you did not serve the ONE your Deity joyfully and gladly in the time of prosperity, therefore in hunger and thirst, in nakedness and dire poverty, you will serve the enemies the ONE sends against you. He will put an iron yoke on your neck until he has destroyed you.
The ONE will bring a nation against you from far away, from the ends of the earth, like an eagle swooping down, a nation whose language you will not understand, a fierce-looking nation without respect for the old or pity for the young. They will devour the young of your livestock and the crops of your land until you are destroyed. They will leave you no grain, new wine or oil, nor any calves of your herds or lambs of your flocks until you are ruined. They will lay siege to all the cities throughout your land until the high fortified walls in which you trust fall down. They will besiege all the cities throughout the land the ONE your Deity is giving you.
Because of the suffering that your enemy will inflict on you during the siege, you will eat the fruit of the womb, the flesh of the sons and daughters the ONE your Deity has given you.
If you do not carefully follow all the words of this law, which are written in this forum, and do not revere this glorious and awesome name-the ONE your Deity - the ONE will send fearful plagues on you and your descendants, harsh and prolonged disasters, and severe and lingering illnesses. He will bring upon you all the diseases of America and Greece that you dreaded, and they will cling to you. The ONE will also bring on you every kind of sickness and disaster not recorded in this Demo Game of Civfanatics.com , until you are destroyed. You who were as numerous as the stars in the sky will be left but few in number, because you did not obey the ONE your Deity . Just as it pleased the ONE to make you prosper and increase in number, so it will please him to ruin and destroy you. You will be uprooted from the land you are entering to possess.
Then the ONE will scatter you among all nations, from one end of the earth to the other. There you will worship other gods-gods of wood and stone, which neither you nor your fathers have known. Among those nations you will find no repose, no resting place for the sole of your foot. There the ONE will give you an anxious mind, eyes weary with longing, and a despairing heart. You will live in constant suspense, filled with dread both night and day, never sure of your life. In the morning you will say, "If only it were evening!" and in the evening, "If only it were morning!"-because of the terror that will fill your hearts and the sights that your eyes will see. The ONE will send you back in ships to Mordrid on a journey I said you should never make again. There you will offer yourselves for sale to your enemies as male and female slaves, but no one will buy you.

This is the voice of The ONE Diabloinex!

I am the Alpha, and the Omega. The one who is and who was and who is to come, the almighty. So sayeth the true Lord.

Behold, I am coming soon he has said.

Havok, you speak with the truth.

Long live the true God and his prophets! All evil people will fall, but the good will rise.

Amen!

It seems as though the exodus of the diablo has brought much pain to Phoenatica, and his split our great land. We must all pray to the one that our land will once again be unified.
