It's time for the government to hire a new religious advisor. Your people have narrowed down the candidates to:
if this is the best 3 losers my people can find I would fire them.

Catholic Archbishop Akira Fellow: boasts an excellent track record, having rapidly increased church attendances in his constituencies through the "Reaching God Through Guilt" program. Seen as a solid choice.
He qualifies as being religious, but he's only able to represent one religion, and will likely use his position to push forward with that particular religion.

New Age thinker Melbourne Dredd: a left-field candidate with some radical ideas. "For me, it's not about the name of your religion. It's about discovering your spirituality in whatever guise that takes. Some people call that a cult: I call it taking spirituality to the people."Maybe a little more representative of other religions, but will NOT represent the majority of religious people, and he still comes with an agenda. I'm looking for an ADVISOR here, not someone who necessary believes in it or has a need to promote it. He needs to be the expert on religious agenda, not the agenda itself


Finally, there's Abraham Wall. "If I am awarded the appointment, I will immediately resign," the ex-schoolteacher has declared. "Because, frankly, God is a big load of hokey. I'll be doing everyone a favor by just shutting up about it."Your aiming for the right target here but your missing by miles. Someone unpartial, but expert in religion is what I'm looking for. Someone who can see why religious people want what they want without all the faith based pollution getting in the way of their analysis. Here I get someone detached, and hes just an ass with an attitude.

Surely my administration can find better representatives then these cartoons. :mad:

So you either pick one or dismiss the issue. It's up to you.

Yep, this is one of the worst issues. You get the choice between a christian a whacko and atheism.

Wow a lot of thought went into that.

One of the few issues I always dismiss.

Cripes i think i picked the wacko :(

I wish I could see some more scoring and tracking for the choices i make though, i dont see any sort of issue history, and I have no where useful in here to provide explanation for my decisions. What do people just play this game to RP warfare? I was thinking this site and the book were about something a little different...
