Please let us remember that it was not I who brought up the subject of
human blood on shrines. It was Hagar, a druid. If memory serves, he is
not the first druid to bring the subject of human blood on shrines.
I respectfully submit that if anyone knows the difference between
human blood and animal blood, it would be a druid.

That being the case, the evidence proferred by certain druids and certain
serpentlords, led me to believe that human sacrifices do indeed occur
at these shrines. I stated that this was my BELIEF, unlike others who
simply state beliefs as facts. In any event, Burstwurst can, if he wishes
try to change my (and others') belief on the matter, if he so cares.

I am curious, Aeschylus, why you have not denounced the actions of
Burstwurst in the matter of the Moghedu Mhun? You were the loudest
proponent of the sentiment that these innocent Moghedu Mhun ought not
to be slaughtered. What then is your feelings of a priest who professes
these same sentiments then goes on these slaughter-fests for experience
and adventure, healing those that slaughter the Moghedu Mhun? Your
silence on the matter speaks volumes. I think we all know who the
hyporcite is. Either you stick by your principals and apply them to
all (including priests) and have some semblence of honor, or you treat
these principals as fair weathered friends and only apply them when it
suits you.

By the way, I do indeed refuse your ridiculous solution of swearing
to Sarapis. Is this how you solve all your problems? Whining to the
gods whenever you need to have your mundane problems solved? Unlike that
PATHETIC sentiment, Occultists fortunately teach us to think for ourselves
and solve our mortal, mundane squabbles amongst ourselves. But, of course,
you probably wouldn't understand the integrity, courage and honor of
solving one's own conundrums, so I suspect you will take this refusal as
some sort of admission, which it most definitely is not. I challenge you,
Aeschylus, to prove that children are harmed at the Orphanage without
resorting to a mewling attempt to place the matter in the hands of the
gods.
