Give Erwin the Grail

[Stormy]

I want to give it to Erwin. I have good reasons.

IMO It is the best thing, the nicest thing, the right thing.

But more than that it is the only totally SAFE place for the grail.

Don't you all think that its protection should be above any of our personal desires?

None of us are completely safe from being permanently banned. If the one holding the grail or even the person in control of the sock puppet should be banned.... there goes our grail.

So I say give it to Erwin, not only for safety, but because I totally appreciate him, and his forum!

Or at least have Erwin create the sock puppet so we know that it will live here as long as the forum survives.

I say give him the grail. If he wants to create a sock puppet, he can.

Either that, or we could give it to ChrisBot.

If someone were banned, Erwin could easily get the grail back to one of us for one thing. For another, I think that a good idea would be for Erwin to create the sockpuppet for the grail or for just one of us members to create the sockpuppet.

give it to Erwin as a way to thank him for creating and running CF

No.

First, the "banning" reason is flawed. Erwin could easily retrieve the grail from the banned person's account.

Second, if Erwin wanted a grail, he could easily get the blessings himself.

Third, its better to share it amongst all at CF. Why should one person or one group hold on to it and refuse to share?

I say share it, but retain official ownership, just like Catholicism is in the world.

Well, I asked the other day about creating a Pope Benedict account, but Erwin said "No".

Then someone else should create a sockpuppet account.

 

[lonnienord]

this seems like such a good idea to me (giving the grail to Erwin) wondering what others think??

 

[Paul S]

I'd prefer to see a Catholic keep it.

No, its a bad idea.

 

[BillH]

Since I have the character that looks the most like Indiana Jones, I vote for giving the Grail to me.

 

[BjBarnett]

i think we should keep it.

 

[anawim]

Shouldn't the grail be in a tabernacle?

If you gift it to Erwin, he might think of a novel way (or even code a novel way ) for the Grail to be shared amongst the members and congregations here at CF.

 

[PetertheRock]

My vote is for "other" meaning No. I think it should remain with a Catholic and as someone said, if Erwin wanted it he could have saved blessings to get it.

 

[Cat59]

Voted "other"
I would like to share the grail. As we have it early due to the Lutherans giving us their blessings, it would be a nice gesture to share it with them. An option would be to create a sock account to hold the grail. Wherever the sock posted, the grail would reside, thus allowing us to truly share the fruits of our efforts- it could therefore be here and with the Lutherans at the same time. We could also offer the other forums an opportunity to have the grail posted there too, if they so wanted it, and it could be stickied if necessary to stop it getting "lost".
Just a thought...

lol...finally, an oasis of wisdom in this sea of chaos!!!

 

[Quijote]

Well, I asked the other day about creating a Pope Benedict account, but Erwin said "No".

How about someone creates a "St. Peter" account; have a couple of people here know the password; place St. Peter in a sticky in our forum and have himhave the Grail there?

cheers

Donating it to ChrisBot didn't actually sound like a bad idea to me.

We should just create an account with a saint's name, turn off the health option and have everyone rep the account. We'd just make a prayer thread in the chapel by the account.
