 Church, State, and Market A library examination In all of human history, there have been certain power organizations that have helped restrain or control society. Three very important ones are the State, the Church, and the Private sector. Interestingly, the separation of these three things only occurred a long time later. The concept of a transcendent God meant that Spiritual authority could not be vested in a ruler, except if it came directly from God. The separation of the private sector came later. The progression is fascinating. Let us examine it: 1.       Combined sectors. Originally, each king was a “god-king,” and they controlled their city’s economies, spiritual life, and pretty much everything else. They were the sons of the gods, and all things belonged to them. 2.       God’s system for Israel instituted private property. It also made the Priests and the Kings separate, and often restraining to each other. 3....

It is said among inhabitants of Northern Archin Canyon that there are only two sorts of Northern Archins. There are the Northern Archins of the White Banner and the Northern Archins of the Blue Banner, abbreviated henceforth as White and Blue archins. White archins, they say, are the sort that love to live in big fancy white castles with weapons, and who charge into battle in shining armor on a sunny day. Blue Archins, in contrast, are the sort that love to live in big fancy blue castles with weapons, and who charge into battle in shining armor on a rainy day. Other than these things, the main difference between these two sorts is the fact that White archins have a preoccupation with flying things, like griffins, dragons, eagles, and birds, while Blue Archins have a preoccupation with swimming things, like dolphins, whales, and fish. Of course, we know that it isn’t true that these are the only Northern Archins. Such generalizations ignore the existence of grey archins. Such Archi...

 An apology for the Mantle's behavior By the Crown Well, hello everyone. As you remember, the Mantle published a ferocious article attacking Zebra as an idiot. This was in response to an article by the Portvalatvian Times, which can be found here . Of course, Zebra is proud of being an idiot, and that is the centerpiece of his campaign. But it is still insulting, if you believe the Portvalatvian Times. So, here is an explanation for it. First, you must understand the situation. The Mantle went hunting last Tuesday, and he didn't get any sleep. Being rather tired, and about to go to bed, suddenly there was a knock on the door, and the mailman delivered the Portvalatvian Times at 11:00. The Mantle was very angry indeed, but more so when he saw the top headline, which was about Zebra's speech. When he saw the speech, he was so blown away by its alleged stupidity, that he simply had to publish an article on the Midnight Dagger for it. In that article, he ridiculed Zebra's b...

 The City Faceoff By the Hat In every election, there comes a moment when every moderate becomes a hardcore partisan, where the objection party loses–and gains–millions of followers, and when every hope of the inexperienced parties is shattered. It is the City Faceoff. A coin is flipped, each candidate receives governorship of a city for a month, and the election is decided afterwards. The numbers are carefully calculated, and everyone in those cities are required to take a poll every three days, or risk higher taxes. These polls also document satisfaction with the government, net worth, employment status, and much more. Whoever ruins their credentials, and their city, has practically no chance of winning the election. This has happened before, many times. The most extreme example is when Eriliniland was invaded due to one Objectionist. What happens is simple. Each candidate is appointed a city, and we decide who ran it the best. As such, this gives voters an opportunity to learn m...

 The Lunchtime Eagle By the Umbrella It’s a familiar scene, isn’t it. You are a grand and noble soldier, or a knight of old, with sword and shield in hand and with the fierce allure of battle upon you (or, to be more precise, on top of you), enriched with the history of a thousand and two years, charging atop your mostly loyal steed, about to deal the furious blow that will change your as of now bleak fortunes, and spire you into the glorious prospect of gaining praise and honor for your hard-mustered valour. You spot your sworn enemy, atop his horse, and are just about to bring down your blade and cleave off clean his head, your eyes flashing, your heart beating, your mind swirling with such giddyish ideas of defeating your enemy once and for all, when suddenly… “Lunch time!” And…all hope is lost. And all glorious thoughts are rudely escorted out of the premises of your poor mind. And now, you have to stop what you’re doing, sullenly get off your steed, and tell your until-now swo...
