pope hat = religious therefore not going up?

annr · #1 09-19-2001, 10:16 AM

thats a load of crap, (stefan).

the church happens to be religious and being an atheist i am offended. take it down. (bible shield too?)

see how stupid it is not to put the hat up.

<3 always,
anna and penchoo.

He OWNS the game. If he doesn't want it up, I'm pretty sure he won't add it.

annr · #3 09-19-2001, 10:20 AM

Add this hat

smallballn13 · #6 09-19-2001, 10:54 AM

halo is sort-of religious too since it has to do with angles

_0AfTeRsHoCk0_ · #7 09-19-2001, 10:58 AM

The problem with the pope hat is it is a religious icon and I agree with Stefan it should not go up. The Halo is used in a much more casual manner (usually Halo's associate someone with their good behaviour) and therefore it is ok. If everyone in Graal went around with a Pope Hat and started saying offensive things like "Hi look at me I'm the Pope, I'm a dumb Pope lalala" that would personally offend me because I am Catholic. THat is also considered blasphemy. The same reason applies why we shouldn't really have turbans on Graal because I have seen people go around on Graal pretending to be from Arabic origin and acting like terrorists or offending their religion/race

CyanideSR71 · #8 09-19-2001, 10:59 AM

(Drakken)
bible shield, bible burning shield, churches, halo, all have to do with religion, so why can't pope hat go up?

Anyways, this game should be about FUN, so lets not drag out religous beleifs into it.

no, angles are geometry

draco_iii · #10 09-19-2001, 11:17 AM

Trueheat I have to hand it to you there. ROFLMAO. Anyway. If people are going to be offended then the should. OMG just leave. Being offended about something and then complaining about it is childish and immature. Then again what do I know.
People get offended in the game every day. What difference does it make. There is such a thing as just take your knocks and walk a way. Most people however just pause.

AlkarenHyralt · #11 09-19-2001, 11:21 AM

Well, if anyone is offened over the Pope hat, that I better watch out. The Fallen Angel might be offensive to some people

once people start paying to play it and money is involved from the consumer it is no longer just a little toy for him to play around with.

What happened to your other account?

unixmad · #17 09-19-2001, 01:42 PM

That's not only Stefan decision to not have religion on Graal but mine two.

That's true that we have some church, but this is related to the Graal story (some English call it Grail).

For peoples that want to known what is Graal you can have some information’s on that site:

Whats the game Graal related to the holy grail legend?

If the Pope hat doesnt go up, why are the turban hats online?
They are Muslim style hats.

That is exactly what I said. People go around with their turbans on blashpeming their religion/race and it's not funny at all. THe same reason why we shouldn't have the pope hat because we will have people running around Graal pretending to be the pope, imitating him which is not very nice

Turbans are sacread to sieks (sp) i just want to dress up as the pope and ride around on my bomy like he does in the pope mobiel

Admins · #24 09-19-2001, 08:25 PM

Religious stuff in the game is normally not a problem,
even churches,synagoges etc. wouldn't be
a problem since all religions tolerate other religions.
The pope hat is a problem since it would be
very offending, there is only one pope, and
wearing such a hat would look like you make fun of
him.

Yamizitzu · #25 09-19-2001, 08:36 PM

Change its name to a Priest Hat?

In theory, yeah, but history shows us that people can lose at least 50 IQ points when religion is involved.

And 'we' only do that because 'our' IQs drop by 50 points. Ever noticed how athiests never start wars over the absences of gods?

The relation is the name throughout various languages, in our language (Assuming that your normally spoken language is English) it's called the Grail, however various other languages call it the Graal.

slp · #33 09-19-2001, 10:46 PM

change it around enough to make somthing up like a merchans hat or somthing else like that, stefan is right. i liked the hat you maid too

!
but i guess making some changes and calling it somthing might work??

In China, they have different religions, and since they try to keep somewhat different from the westerners, they reject the idea of Christianity.

It's more complicated then that, I know.

Ah, but that's not killing people because they're religious. It's killing people because they follow a different religion. Those at fault are still being influenced by their religions.

CyanideSR71 · #36 09-19-2001, 11:40 PM

China does have its own church, where they reject most of the stuff Christianity has and only plants communist beliefs in it. They make Jesus look like Mao, crosses are never shown, and God only supporting China and basically blaspheming our whole religion. It's basically what a bunch of athiests did to make China look better, and to control the people in a new way.
China kills anyone who shows any religious symbol publically... And if that isn't true, it used to be true, and thus Stefan is still right.

And Kai, only the pigheaded people drop 50 IQ points when it comes to religion. People with open minds, who have chosen their religion after seeing many others, and have selected their religion because they believe it's better than the rest generally accept the ideas of others.

What, all three of them?

CyanideSR71 · #38 09-20-2001, 12:21 AM

Now that statement is rude, offensive, and quite untrue. While at such an immature age I myself cannot say I'm one of those people quite yet, but I can say there are many who are. I have many friends who are these great people, not all who are quite Catholics like myself, but are very intelligent when it comes to religion. It's a great thing to talk to these people about their beleifs, especially because you know they won't try to bash your faith and worshippers in any way, but much rather explain why they think so in great detail. I believe the pope is one of those understanding people, and I've met many priests and people from other religions who are.

Valder · #39 09-20-2001, 12:24 AM
