AUNN: LIVE
ANATOBA

Nations around the globe had been awaiting this day in eagerness. Many of them, had already signed themselves to attendance, and although there WAS a list, this conference was not closed to any late entrees, nor was it closed to viewing from the General Public.

President Madison stood outside of the International Conference Center. This conference center was not new to the stage of international politics, hosting a great deal of international conferences. FAMOUS ones included the founding of Concordia Alliance, and the Global Cooporation Summit. Now it was time for Nationstates Christian Conference 2004.

President James Madison had eagerly been awaiting this day since he had considered the idea. Looking forward to attending, he briskly walked up to the podium. Immediatly, the world media turned its attention toward him, and within seconds, he was on televisions across the globe. He was also not new to this, and he stood confidently as he spoke;

"It has come to my knowledge and understanding that christian values are slowly being replaced with sin such as jealousy, rage, anger, etc. These are reflected in the behaviour of international politics. Now as these human characteristics begin to rise up, we see more war, more death, more destruction.

This is why I am considering the creation of a world alliance. Some of you may link this with groups such as the Christian Coalition, however we do not seek to gain power, but merely to help restore world stability, but not tackling the problem when it is developed, but rather preventing the problem from arising in the first place.

I see a vision of a large assembly of nations, all christian or christian-based, who yolk themselves together under god, and who all cooporate together in ridding the world of such things as povety, war, destruction etc. These things are the leading cause of hatred, jealousy etc, and which in turn, if we are able to help restore the world into a "human-friendly" world, hopefully there will be less war, destruction and death, those things which plauge our stale Earth.

I dont see a world seperated by race, by government etc, but a world all united under god. For by joining the kingdom of light, God gives us peace, prosperity, and all the things the world yearns for. Please, think of not yourselves, but your children, and their children, and their children. Because if we can make a difference in this God-starved world, then by God, lets make a difference.

At this conference, we will also be discussing other things relevant to christian nations around the globe, for those who are unwilling to sign to a new alliance...

I now, officially declare, the Nationstates Christian Conference 2004, open!"

The crowd erupts into cheer, and the world delegate begin to enter into the conference room. There was no set seating plan. As the delegates took up their positions, the room darkened, and a massive culture spectacular began, as an opening to the conference.

OOC: The official location of this conference will be here:

Please dont attempt to sabatage the conference without my expressed permission. Thankyou. Everyone who has a christian or christian-based nation may attend, and EVERYONE may observe... No registration is nessasary for observation.

While I am a Christian and I feel that Christian values need to be spread, spreading them under a Christian label is a bad idea. People of other faiths see this as an imposition on their values and their beliefs. While you may feel like it's important to unite the world under Christianity, the truth is, it just isn't possible. Attempting to create a peace coalition of Christian nations would only lead to more religious tensions. However, Jews, Christians, Muslims, even Buddhists and Hindus; virtually all faiths have a concept of God. Trying to create peace in the name of God and not making it exclusively Christian would be much more successful, and would not cause tension between those who were in the coalition based on their religion and those who were out of the coalition based on their religion.

Whilst we tend to agree that spreading Christian Values does create some tension, we do not chose to run from conflict. Conflict will inevitably come out of EVERYTHING. Besides, how can any kind of alliance which doesnt launch crusades create religious tension.

The bible says, "Do not be yolked with other non-believers..."
Which basically means that a joint religion alliance would be against our very foundations and beliefs.

While I understand your adherence to doctrine, I do not share the same adherence. To believe that you can have a global impact being led by a single religion seems ridiculous. You could say that you're trying to bring peace to the Christian world, but I doubt that such an exclusive group could result in more peace worldwide. Also, I fail to see how those who believe in God are classified as "non-believers". They may not have been raised to believe the same specifics as you, and their belief of the nature of God on earth may be completely different from yours or mine. But we're here to carry out God's will, to bring peace to the best of our ability, and to love God. The extremities, inconsistencies, and overall society-based nature of the Bible (you'll notice it promotes patriarchal values and, coincidentally, was written in a patriarchal society) mean that we should adhere to our own hearts and beliefs rather than adhering to Christian doctrine. I do not believe God views women as inferior to men. I couldn't see God as prejudiced like that. I just want you to consider that those of other religions, while they don't have to be members of your congregation, can be a friendly part of your world instead of being enemies.

The foriegn ministry wishes to note that you may wanna do some research before making assumptions.

"No-where did we say that others were enemies or foes. We respect the views of others, and quiet frankly, we do see most people as friends, regardless of beliefs.

In fact, we dismiss most of your comments as being general bullsh*t, simply because you are putting down a group of Christians that choose to gather and meet together in similarity of our national beliefs. Nowhere did we say that others were enemies, nor did we say that we would be favouring christian nations exclusivly. We believe in an equal world, regardless of belief, however this summit is christain or christian based nation exclusive.

We would also like to note that you can stop spamming our threads with useless ramblings, as your comments are less desired. They are not based on fact, but on your general assumption and interpretation. Such comments are undesired. Thankyou."
