Thinkers

Let's Make This Brief

Alright mates, I'm currently attempting to structure a lobby devoted to the self-proclaimed 'thinkers' on this site. EpicMafia is a mind-game, and while I definitely won't claim you need to be a great thinker to play the game, it does require some amount of activity upstairs. That being said, there should hopefully be a moderate number of people who have become consumed with pursuing philosophical ideologies; and with any luck you'll be willing to join!

So, if you are someone who engages frequently with philosophy (whether from personal interest or pursuing a degree), please feel free to apply to join the lobby early! I'll post a follow-up thread at some point to outline what exactly the custom lobby will include - but in the meantime PM me for the application (it's pretty easy).

All fields of thought are welcome - not just philosophy. Which leads me to my next point.

I Need Moderators!

Yes! You could very well be the next moderator of this lobby. The moderator application will be far more expansive, so if you're committing, you better be willing to stick to it!

Each moderator will head a different 'department' of this lobby. Look below at the list of departments, if you're proficient in any of these areas then I implore that you apply.

Technology - Headed by Man

Philosophy - Headed by Man

Psychology - Headed by [Your Name Here!]

Mathematics - Headed by [Your Name Here!]

Engineering - Headed by [Your Name Here!]

Art - Headed by [Your Name Here!]

Other - I'm in a hurry so I've left some out, if you have a department you'd want to head, PM me!

Cheers mates.

And the holocaust brought about marvelous medical discoveries that are in use today because of the experiments conducted by Nazis. I don't advocate for Holocausts. You might say I'm anti-Holocaust.

If you made me the head of the anti-Holocaust department, would be fair to appoint someone to head a pro-Holocaust department?

You're comparing me attempting to fuel theological debate, rather than killing the ability to discuss, to the holocaust? I'm trying to fuel discussion, not kill it with hostile and polarized opinions.

It's fine that you dislike religion and spirituality with such vehemence, stick to your beliefs. Don't compare religious tolerance to being pro-holocaust. I've met a decent amount of militant atheists, and I'm not entirely sure why you all react with such hostility to something perfectly reasonable. This lobby won't be a place to propagate personal opinions, but somewhere which facilitates genuine debate.

I'd like to head the antitheism department. If it doesn't exist, it should probably be created.


Anti-theism is an iffy approach. I'm not about protecting non-secular organizations of any form, but I'm certainly not 'anti-religion.' Spiritual frames of thought have engendered a surplus of genuinely brilliant ideas, art, and culture. I don't believe religion has a place in our world, but bear in mind that secular thought is supported by less than 14% of the modern-world, so don't dismiss it in its entirety! I'll consider allowing you to head a department, and if you're really passionate about anti-theism then I will support it on the basis that you'll find someone equally passionate about religion to head a theistic department, aye?
