Re: Monument to Sins/Church *OT-ish*

Personally, regarding the Flood I think a shotgun will always work better then a church. Although, maybe holing yourself up IN a church with a shotgun would be a good plan. Bottlenecking your opponent, anyway. :-D This first part is just kidding, but I was thinking about something along the lines of Halo/church. I was reading an article at the Harper's Magazine website regarding a conservative Christian organization that seeks to influence decision making in Washington D.C. (I'd link to it, but it's for subscribers only) Now, not to get too OT regarding politics/religion, but the leader of this group would consistently refer to the need for it's organization's members to form a 'Covenant' regarding their goals, beliefs, etc. Again, not to get into an argument regarding any particular system of belief, but I was always impacted by the Halo series 'discusses' what I would say as 'blind adherence to a system of beliefs.' It can be a dangerous thing, for sure. : Could Gravemind simply be a monument to our sins? Something out there that : lets us all know that there is no escape, no matter how hard we try? We : sin, and no matter how hard we may try to outgrow our past, and ascend to : a higher plane, the OG is still there to nip at our heels. One day it may : be Gravemind, the other.. Something else. Perhaps we should spend more : time at our local church?
