Mini Mafia III- [Concluded]

[Askthepizzaguy]

Yay roleplaying!

[A Very Super Market]

Can't really roleplay Confucious. That's right, I admit it. It isn't like your character reveals your role, otherwise Aquinas would be a definite lynch.

I'm just fooling around on Day one. I don't know if ANYONE is who, but you seem to be very defensive. Which is rather natural, since a townie won't want to get lynched. And then comes WIFOM

I might as well stay in some semblance of character...

Unvote: Aquinas
Vote: Lao Tzu

[Askthepizzaguy]

Tally:

Lao-Tzu: 2 (TheFlax, AVSM)
Thomas Aquinas: 1 (Taka)
Guru Raghavendra: 1 (Warman8)
Ibn Rushd: 1 (King Jan)

Abstain: 1 (Beefy187)

[taka]

AVSM, arent you meant to help your fellow chinese Philosopher? so scummy scummy

i created the 道 德 經 (if you can read that) which bascially shows how you should be moral. what you did, was not moral at all >:(

[A Very Super Market]

I disagree with your philosophies, quite obviously.

I support order, work, and general productiveness.

You support lying around and doing nothing.

[TheFlax]

Forgiveness is a virtue held in high regard in my religion and thus I bear no ill will towards you, AVSM. Yes I am Thomas Aquinas and I am not the impostor here.

Quite simply, I was taken about to read your vote against me in both Knightime (where everyone seems to not vote or abstain, thus making a probable lynch) and here which also placed me in the lead. Now I don't mind dying, but I was hoping to last more than one round in either one of those games. Even if you were the instrument of my lynch in both game, I wouldn't be mad or anything though.

thats what the chinese lack all the time... unification.

Confucious?

Lets be friends

EDIT: No thats 論語 isnt it...So your Taoism fellow...

Lets be friends anyway

[Captain Blackadder]

The only true religion is the one that is found within oneself the first thing one must do is throw away the dogmatic texts and concentrate on the true meaning of god. Does anyone want to listen to some poetry

The years are a thousand
Since, broken and scattered,
We wander in exile,
Like waterfowl lost in
The depths of the desert.

Vote: Solomon ibn Gabriol

Who are you again?

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

May Allah Bless you all! I think there's no conflict between religion and philosophy. I think they are taught different ways in your lands, that is all!

Vote Guru Raghavendra



My God, I know that those who plead
To thee for grace and mercy need
All their good works should go before,
And wait for them at heaven's high door.
But no good deeds have I to bring,
No righteousness for offering,
No service for my Lord and King.


Yet hide not thou thy face from me,
Nor cast me out afar from thee;
But when thou bidd'st my life to cease,
O may'st thou lead me forth in peace
Unto the world to come, to dwell
Among thy pious ones, who tell
Thy glories inexhaustible.


There let my portion be with those
Who in eternal life arose;
There to purify my heart aright,
In thy light to behold the light.
Raise me from deepest depths to share
Heaven's endless joys of praise and prayer,
That I may evermore declare:

Though thou wast angered, Lord, I will give thanks to thee,
For past is now thy wrath, and thou dost comfort me.

[taka]

I would type chinese, but then i think only me and beefy (i guess to a certain extent) would be able to read it. you could of course google translate it

[A Very Super Market]

I can understand basic Chinese. Though I speak it much better than I read it.

Phase One


Sri Guru Raghavendra Swamy (ಶ್ರೀ ಗುರು ರಾಘವೇಂದ್ರ ಸ್ವಾಮಿ) (1595-1671) was in a very special place... a place that was a blending of Nirvana and Heaven. All the greatest thinkers and philosophers who had ever lived had gathered there. He had been debating with 6 of the others, and was walking on a puffy cloud back to his lavish and supernatural dwelling. The blissful enlightenment that surrounded this man literally glowed, and his wisdom passed on to the others. But the forces of wisdom and enlightenment were not the only ones who had entered this Nirvana, there were radical thinkers as well with more radical philosophies. They were at war with the Gentle Ones.

Indeed, walking behind the Saintly Guru Raghavendra was another figure... a figure of malevolence and darkness. This figure hated everything that Guru Raghavendra stood for, and would no longer tolerate his peaceful and enlightened morality. He grabbed the Guru by the neck, and impaled him through the back, twisting the blade until it had completely destroyed the man's beating heart. Even in this realm, people could be destroyed by the Evil Ones. The gentle Guru looked into the heavens and cried out for Vishnu to protect him... but his calls went unanswered.

The malevolent figure, an incarnation of darkness stood and watched him die, and then laughed as he wiped the saintly blood from his blade. "Morality is a joke, you foolish man. And soon, everyone in this pathetic little playground will know the truth."

How about we all declare who we are. Just to get things started. Meditation ftw!!

[Captain Blackadder]

Who am I is indeed a good question one that must be pondered for many a night for now all I will say is I am Me.Who are you?

My heart thinks as the sun comes up
that what it does is wise:
as earth borrows its light,
as pledge it takes the stars

So be it

VOTE Kǒng Fūzǐ


Thou art One, the beginning of all computation, the base of all construction.
Thou art One, and in the mystery of Thy Oneness
the wise of heart are astonished, for they know not what it is.
Thou art One, and Thy Oneness neither diminishes nor increases,
neither lacks nor exceeds.

Thou art One, but not as the One that is counted or owned,
for number and change cannot reach Thee, nor attribute, nor form.
Thou art One, but my mind is too feeble to set Thee a law or a limit,
and therefore I say: "I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue."
Thou art One, and Thou art exalted high above abasement and falling
-- not like a man, who falls when he is alone.
