{Quirion Dryad} then lay down a {Hands of Binding}. Because the way cipher works, everytime you deal damage you are casting the spell again. Not only are you gaining board advantage, you're pumping you're Dryad.
True, but only one time a turn as it states combat damage.
Toss an {infiltrator's magemark} on it and it becomes a whole lot more difficult to deal with.
Or something standard >.>

No idea why religions get so much hate these days. I personally believe in religions (as in, they are generally a very good thing to have), not so much in God.
I utterly disagree. So many horrible things have been committed in the name of religion. In addition religion obscures truth IMHO. Where has religion been beneficial to humanity? If the church had their way, we would never have had any scientific advances..
Terrible things have been done in the name of many things. That has nothing to do with the religion itself, for instance. Do most Christians agree with things like the Crusades and what has been done in the name of Christianity? No. Lets me serious here. Humans are human. Just because people use something to further their OWN cause does not mean that whatever they are using to justify their cause was meant to be used that way.

Its like people saying that video games caused them to go kill people in real life. They can use that excuse, but is that the actual purpose of video games? Absolutely not. Just because you use something as an excuse doesnt make it valid.

Well said.

Religion is just a tool, like knife or aircraft carrier. Probably all tools can be used to do evil things. Religion is a nice tool to have, if only for the fact that it provides moral code enforced by ultimate power. It helped humanity to solve 'prisoner's dilemma', without religion it would be near to impossible to run societies when CSI technology wasn't invented yet.

Also, 'If the church had their way, we would never have had any scientific advances.' is a very obvious lie, so please be careful.
That's true but western organized religion as a whole as an entity has and continues to commit atrocities. You are right that religion is a tool, but it is being misused. In addition religion is the antithesis of logic. Religion asks you to put faith in something without any logic behind it. And Piotr, I'm going to have to disagree with you. While my sentence was hyperbolic, the premise is true. Organized religion on a whole has tried to suppress things that disagreed with it. That included many scientific advances. The fact that belief in the bible and science can co exist at all is amazing. While this post is also hyperbolic, I belief it to be true.

We should be thankful that our rights our upheld. This is the first time in thousands of years civilization has advanced enough to let this happen. We are extremely privileged to live in a state where this happens.
Also if you think anarchy will lead to anything but that is ridiculous. Look at history, name a single occurrence where natural law "worked". There will always be people more powerful than others, and that will always lead to exploitation.
