I think we both want the same thing here: for people to see the truth behind their false deities.
The true irony is that you didn't pick up on how I knew exactly what I was saying with that.

author=Necrileauthor=ReapergurlUnfortunately, it is. If I do not have proof of my claim, then I can say literally anything and you have to take my word as fact. I don't mind if you have your beliefs, I can't talk anyone down from their religion nor do I wish to. What bothers me is people who claim the sky is falling over and over because someone will inevitably believe them, and some people go as far as to kill themselves to avoid it (yes seriously, look up any number of different cults that commit mass suicide). People have been singing the same tune since the dawn of time, and yet day after day people continue to keep living on. If your head-cleric (I don't know the nomenclature) is the one telling you these things, I would proceed with that religion with caution.
Absence of Proof != (not equal to) Proof of Absence
We could reverb this back and forth, but most people's faith is based on the fact that Absence of Proof is inequal to Proof of Absence, and I meant to put that in quotes but forgot (oops! I'm not fucking perfect! Holy Shit people, like that's news!) because I was quoting someone else (I forget the doctor's name off the top of my head). Oh well!
Mass Suicide - this is something we not only look down upon, but have anti-advocacy meetings about this regularly (I was there recently and we talked a lot about terrorist groups committing these types of acts among other nefarious things).
She is called 'Saiyazyin', and we rarely ever see her, since she's the one who oversees all of our Temples.
As for the one who oversees our Temple, the Lifted Acolyte is the one who has the final say in the chain of command, as it were. I've never met her, and likely will not unless I become a High Priestess myself (which may be in my near future).
The teachings are centuries old, as far as one can tell, even if some of the scriptures are only readable by those who understand Runic Languages.
I've been with these fine women for over fifteen years...I would never abandon them.

In the previously linked "Debaucherous Traitorism Thread", I mention I had a vision. This vision revealed to me some pretty serious things outside of myself that put weight to my sins with the weight only being taken away when I spiritually sacrificed all that I had.
If your faith is true, translate this vision for me. What do your "gods" say? Can they show you what God showed me, these things I've sworn never to repeat outside of God's appointed time? What were these beautiful and terrible things?author=InfectionFiles

I'm demanding accountability of these Pagan Gods, these workers of masterful illusions and deception at the hands of sinners; so-called false gods of self-serving humans.
History is ripe with people who claimed to work great deeds in the name of their Gods and gained graciously from it. They filled their houses with idols of wood and clay. Where are these idols now? Destroyed by time and decay.
Self-serving humans...
Unfortunately, these self-serving humans are mostly devout worshipers of the one God. No, unlike these places where people go in and give money that no one knows where it ends up nor what it gets used for, we have never required our followers to give us money, no passing of the tray, none of that.
We use our own money, and if we ask for donations, we do tell people exactly what the donations are going to. We are fully non-profit, and non-tax exempt. We are volunteers that have lives outside of the Temple, and we don't push our religion onto others outside the Temple, with exceptions to some of us whom are tasked with 'getting the word out'. I am one of those people, of course, this is a recent title acquisition for my many years of devotion to not only the 'religion' (we don't use this term ourselves), but our cause; during the Apocalypse, which is coming, our Temple will be a safe place to be.
Yes, I am an Informant; I relay vital information to and from people, keeping our Priestesses and Acolytes alert.
As it were, I'm also well-guarded in many areas, so I've even more peace of mind.
Okay, so you want me to reveal what I have been shown?
The issue is not telling you, it is you not believing a word I say. So, I will refrain but know this: I speak no lies about these matters, but am likely to not reveal everything because it isn't meant for everyone to know.
#knowledgeispowerbuttoomuchisdangerousanddeadly
Also, you want to know something else?
We are the original Illuminati. Think about it. What a legacy.
author=Necrilefalse gods here is short hand for pagans or other polytheist belief systems. the abrahamic religions all think they have a monopoly on truth, and that there is only one true god. anything else is sin and you will suffer god's wrath for it.
I have no idea what this post is trying to imply. Are you saying that monuments of a religion being destroyed are symbolic of dead gods? Because I'm pretty sure plenty of churches have been destroyed over the last 2000 years...

There are plenty of uninhabited 25 square mile areas in the world. Most of North America is sparsely populated. Not to mention the great wilderness of northern Russia. There's also deserts and the ocean (though maybe the ocean doesn't qualify) if you want actual "open space". (Saying 25 square mile open space makes me think of a 25 square mile empty parking lot, but you then mention trees and whatnot so it seems it only needs to be "wildernessy".)
You do have a valid point. However, it cannot just be any large, uninhabited area (and a desert only radiates with flames and winds); it has to actually be centered around what we call a localized elemental spawn. These are not found everywhere, and with urbanization are rapidly disappearing.
What is this elemental spawn? In short, energy doesn't just flow, it has to be bound to a certain something (and that can be one of thousands of things-a good portion that of which are invisible to the unaided eye or are not visible at all) for it to flow; this spawn is where the energy flows from, around, and back to. Why would it need a lot of undisturbed space? In truth, it likely wouldn't, and 25 sq. miles is an estimate, but a safe estimate so that during the ritual, any sudden shift in the energy flow will be incredibly unlikely to interrupt the process.

I'm guessing you were Christian before converting to Paganism. Your obsession with angry gods and sinners is worrisome.author=Shinan
Namedropping Eden is a dead giveaway. I just feel like an ancient Pagancultsect wouldn't need to use a Biblical placename.
No, all I believed in was Karma and Anti-Karma; it wasn't until I got into some hard drugs that I found myself wandering into the loving, caring arms of a Pagan High Priestess. A conversion? Lifestyle, sure, but my beliefs were only reinforced by the teachings, not converted.
Eden just happens to be her name; the original Governess of Innocence went by the name Darei, though in truth, she's merely the founder of the idea and had not been a Harborer, like Eden (Ay-dehn - Ee-dehn [ Iden] is a poisonous plant once used to make medicine with).
Worry not, every one pronounces her name wrong at first.

Reapergurl: What Gods? Do you have proof of these Gods or theirhatredanger? Or sins? I feel a lot like I just read the introduction to some sort of near-apocalyptic JRPG. Not to be an asshole, but if you are going to make some claims like that I think you should have some sort of evidence.
Absence of Proof != (not equal to) Proof of Absence. Remember that, and especially remember it when the cataclysmic chaos caused by the sudden disruption and the Gods' interference makes daily life questionable.
It will happen without clear warning. It makes no sense to allow mortals to know something terrible and unthinkable is going to happen to them (and I surmise you can make sense of the reasoning behind this).
Is there visible proof to be found?
Probably not, but clear indications of things being different than what may be expected by the largest portion of the populace are often treated by the minority as non-coincidental.
A story that we often tell the youth involves a small town in the middle of a plain back in the eighteenth century, which had several small houses, and five larger building constructs - a Judiciary (Law/Imprisonment/Financial), Indoor Market, a Parlour (saloon/cat house/etcetera), and then a Church and a Temple.
This was a town where settlers had come from all places, and decided to make a thoroughly peaceful place to live, and for a time, it was so, until an outlaw decided to try to turn the people of one religion against the other (the names of the religions were not given or necessary), namely, the Church against the Temple, because this 'outlaw' had been banned by the Temple for various shenanigans that aren't mentioned in great detail.
All it took was one rumor being spread about a secret ritual chamber below the temple where the clerics would feast upon flesh and bone, and the war began.
Five years this went back and forth, all the while the clerics only defended their lives and the lives of the innocent whilst the Church mobs chose to use whatever they could muster to end the heretical ways of the Temple.
Houses were burned, as were the Market, Parlour and the Judiciary, until only the Temple and Church remained standing, and even those were torched, but burned slowly.
So much smoke went into the sky that it generated storm clouds, and it got so powerful that it spawned a tornado. People ran for their lives, the true heretics hid like cowards whilst the clerics prayed in the burning Temple for this to be brought to a swift end...
...And it was.
Once the storm cleared, people came out of hiding to find every house had been destroyed and scoured to their foundations, with some houses having their foundations ripped away as well, and even the Parlour, Judiciary and the Market weren't spared.
However, the Church was a complete pile of thoroughly burned rubble, and underneath were the bodies of many, whom had hid within its' said-to-be sturdy walls, forty-six in count and unrecognizable.
The most awe-inspiring thing of all, was the Temple. Left untouched, and no longer burning, nor any sign of any fire damage on the exterior, people saw this, and wondered why they were spared.
But rather than allow their beliefs to be swayed, the town was simply abandoned by the majority of the surviving populace; it was rebuilt as a town for the devotees of the Temple.
At the end of this book, an illustration of the town from a top-down perspective is shown, as well as what it looked like after the storm.
The symbol that the houses with their foundations still standing kind of resembles the symbol we use in common reference as a 'Justice' symbol, while the symbol of the houses completely ripped away resembles the symbol for 'Deceit'.
