Does anyone own a Moral Compass?
September 28, 2018 at 7:45 am
I was thinking of going out tonight to pillage a small village, maybe with a bit of a killing spree afterwards to top it all off.

Because I don't believe in Mr God I don't know if this is wrong or not.

Anyone got any ideas?

I've heard as long as you say please, thank you and keep your elbows off the dining table then it's all OK.

Reminds me of the cartoon. Viking boss is standing in the front of the dragon boat as they approach a village on the coast.

"Now try to remember! Burn the village. Kill the men. Rape the women. Can you clowns remember all that THIS TIME?"

My troopers knew they'd fucked up badly when I repeated that line to them.

No reflection on your plan, Mathild, just buzzing on percocets.

I've just always used the magic eight ball as my moral compass. Hasn't steered me wrong yet, so far as I know.

Let me check that.

I keep mine right alongside my moral lodestone. It never steers me wrong.

As long as this village is full of those deemed unworthy, the pillaging and killing is not only right, it's required!

You see how the voice in your head makes you feel. If you "just know" it is God talking to you, then you're all clear to pillage away.

Which particular voice?

Edit: I think I've just realised the difference between being religious and being insane. It depends on how many voices are in your head.

As long as you only target rape apologists and sexual assault apologists, and hit up republicans you'll be fine.
