whatever defense a player has selected at hood change locks them in to a hood of that age for the next cycle making battles only possible with troops up to that age. What I'm proposing, for discussion only, is perhaps setting a weekly defense. OF players can already set an IA defense. Or maybe we just need to wait for a Daneel to get around to it. On the contemporary side, I'd say we lack a benevolent tyrant creating a solid Humanist 'Church' to compete and unify the many tribes. To complete the samsara, I agree that Religion can (and has) set us up for failure, but I will always blame the weakness of man first. I don't like throwing out the good people just because they happen to be associated with dirty baptismal water. bigotry? close-minded? I'm not finding the right adjective, but I hope ya'll picking up what I'm throwin' down. Regardless, I try to parse the benevolent side of Religious practitioners from the. Or mayhap it is just in our human natures to divide up into tribes and fight, in which case even if all religions disappeared over night, we'd still have the same root problem. I may be naive and/or overly optimistic, but as long as an extinction event doesn't take us (maybe just a near one?) I can see reconciliation happening. It serves those people to create barriers in reconciliation. I think the underlying root of the evil are the people using each 'tribe' as pawns in creating their own variations of totalitarian power bases. I'm biased for Buddhism on the religion comparison, but even it has been used for calls to violence ( Wiki).
