Is anyone up for a chess challenge between these two factions of the spirituality forum?
I was thinking we play a 20 vs 20 match, for prestige. If you're interested, post your name, rating and which team you'd be playing for and if enough people are interested, I'll see if we can organise it.
I'm playing for the greater glory of Eist Pimpengott and pledge to wear a purple trilby while making all of my moves, as well as sending all in-game taunting in Hrothgarian. What other gods are my teammates on the Theist side playing for? Is anyone playing for the One True God? If so, will these people be sabotaging their teammates' efforts?

You see, every thousand years, I test each life system in the universe. I visit it with mysteries, earthquakes, unpredicted eclipses, strange craters in the wilderness...If these are taken as natural, I judge that system ignorant and harmless; I spare it.
But if the Hand of Blakbuzzrd is recognized in these events, I judge that system dangerous to Us. I call upon the great god Dyzan, and for his greater glory -- and our mutual pleasure -- I destroy it, utterly.
Hmm, the lack of theists in this thread seems to be having a strange effect on the atheist team; they're all converting! This suggests to me that the best way of bringing god to the masses is in fact to be very, very quiet.
Anyhow, we need more theists for this to work, it somewhat undermines the nature of the idea if it's atheists against atheists.
