When I was little and forced into christianity, more than being inspired by Jesus I was scared. This idea of eternal punishment if you have the wrong thought, dayum.

All Theisms have that belief system.

Some even act on it (you know which religion does).

It's not a Christian only deal. It's a control issue.

Was worse than the boogeyman.
"If you do <insert bad thing> you will make Jesus cry, and if you make Jesus cry you go to hell."

Everytime I screwed up something I was like "oh my god if Jesus finds out I'm done for!" /cantsleep

Worse than "Can't sleep. Clowns will eat me"

Funny thing is, Jesus was all-forgiving of our sins, and the priesthood in pretty much every locale acted pretty much the way Seha described her scenario.

There was a point in my life where I wondered why Jesus didn't apply JRPG logic to problems.

People are bad? Why can't we save them all? Why can't we go straight into Hell and defeat Satan the wellspring of all evil and save everyones souls?

(Besides, Hell will have some great BGM and Satan? The Latin choir is just chomping at the bit for an epic boss battle.)

I know "music appreciation" isn't exactly a big thing around here, but during those years where music either had to be religious or you were sentenced to hard labor or drinking poison, Verdi already wrote the music you're looking for.

His Requiem makes SE look bad for giving that name to such a crappy set of bard songs.

I get what you are saying. I think that, given SE's want to create a song that does damage to a mob, giving Requiems that ability suits that need because those songs are supposed to institute sadness in the listener, causing emotional trauma and anguish.

A more appropriate use of the Requiem would be a debuff like def down or attack down (or a little of both), however.

Eh, I was just making a passing comment, really. They needed to name them something. :p

The bigger takeaway is that if you haven't heard Tuba Mirum from the aforementioned Requiem, you should look it up right now.

http://www.cnn.com/2015/02/03/politics/clinton-headlines-emilys-list-march-event/index.html

"Hillary Clinton has dedicated her life to bettering the lives of women and families and has inspired the next generation with a focus on increasing economic empowerment across the country and around the world," Stephanie Schriock, President of EMILY's List, said in a statement. "EMILY's List and our members have been proud to support her since her election to the United States Senate in 2000, her subsequent campaigns, and throughout her tenure as Secretary of State."

A number of outside groups have spent the last year organizing around an all-but-certain Clinton run. Joined by groups like Ready for Hillary and American Bridge, Emily's List has helped lay groundwork for the former first lady and senator of New York.

The group has raised money off the idea of electing a women president, organized events through their "Madam President" campaign and commissioned polling about electing a women to the White House.
