Seems I'm stuck with Dexter King and Chubfish or whatever their names are...Though I did think I would be more violent....

shaman 03-02-2009 07:27 AM

If anyone get's level nine i will post a picture of myself bowing to them...


EDIT: i'm serious...

Alcar 03-02-2009 01:26 PM

I'd say I'd have reached level 9 if I had answered yes to 'would commit treason against your country'.

Alcar...

Bullet Magnet 03-02-2009 03:10 PM

Is it still treason if your country deserves it, or does Dante demand we accept the maxim "my country, right or wrong"?

Considering how Satan was banished....

Also I was reading through the descriptions of the levels and Socrates and Aristotle are trapped in Limbo, completely disregarding Aristotle's position as the darling of the Catholic church for thousands of years.

Hey, what if you’re doing this test in Hell and want to commit treasonous acts against it? Does that still count? Would it get you kicked into a deeper level?

Bullet Magnet 03-02-2009 04:33 PM

I think the whole point of the harpies and demons is to prevent rebellion. I don't think it has crossed anyone's minds that maybe the anguished, traumatised inmates, with their bodies composed of useless, violated and apparently fluid, plastic flesh are capable of mounting any sort of resistance. They can't even haul themselves from the pool of whatever horrid liquid it is they have been cast into.

Wings of Fire 03-02-2009 05:30 PM

Well if there's ever a second war on Heaven, my money is on Satan.

He learns.

mitsur 03-03-2009 03:52 PM

I'm not sure. It's tough to get soldiers fighting for you when their reward is probable suffering and torment.

Wings of Fire 03-03-2009 04:01 PM

Slaves are not warriors.

mitsur 03-03-2009 04:24 PM

That dosen't matter. I think slaves would realize they're fighting under the fucking devil, and that death is probably preferable to helping him win, since the above things will happen to them.

In fact, dying in defiance to the devil is probably preferable since that instantly matyrs you, which means God will probably give you a ticket to Heaven.

Wings of Fire 03-03-2009 04:33 PM

Hang on, being treacherous to the worlds first traitor while you live in his kingdom will get you rewarded by the God who cast you down there?

Yay for double standards.

And what I mean was that humans sent to hell would not fight Satan's wars for him, in the same way that people in Heaven are not Angels. (This is of course working by the accepted assumptions in Christian theology).

mitsur 03-03-2009 05:35 PM

Well, if you defy Satan and get killed for it, you could say you turned your back on evil.

Nemo 03-03-2009 05:38 PM

Or none of this actually exists.


Just a possibility.

moxco 03-04-2009 11:29 AM

In that test they ask you about masterbating. What's so bad about? Or do you get "good points" for it?

Spilling your seed is frowned upon. IT'S LIKE MURDERING BABIES!

Wil 03-04-2009 12:25 PM

Really? I get good points for it.

I just saw an 'A Current Affair' article about the homeless. And even though most of the stuff on that show is crap it made me feel like a, well in the words of hobo; an obnoxious cunt. So I am sorry for my ignorant veiws.

Damn, and I really wanted to get into level 9 to chat with the guy in charge.

Bullet Magnet 03-05-2009 01:15 PM

Basically, you can sell your country's secrets and team kill all you like, but as long as you balance it out with other sins you are absolved of the ninth level.

Slog Bait 03-05-2009 03:12 PM

I tried the test again to purposfully try to get the 9th level of hell, and I succeeded.

The Dante's Inferno Test has banished you to the Ninth Level of Hell - Cocytus!
Here is how you matched up against all the levels:

Level 9 - Cocytus (Treacherous)Extreme

Take the Dante's Inferno Hell Test

It's actually really easy, in every question that's asking about your loyalty, just answer it so it makes you seem wrathful and treacherous. *gasp*

Nate 03-05-2009 03:30 PM

Yeah, but the celestial judges would be intelligent enough to spot your fraudulence and send you to the Malebolge instead.

shaman 03-06-2009 08:53 AM

I will not bow to you ... as you TRIED to get the ninth level.

Wings of Fire 03-06-2009 09:12 AM

The truly treacherous would avoid Hell completely.

If you actively try to be evil, you are forgiven and absolved of the punishment appropriate given your actions.

An intresting comic, which brings up the thought: If you have to do bad to prevent even worse bad from happening, how does that work out?

Wil 03-06-2009 05:01 PM

That’s just about one of hugest ethical dilemmas there is. Don’t just throw it about like it’s a quaint query. The damage you could cause…

Bullet Magnet 03-06-2009 06:30 PM

Yes. You'd at least want some sort of evidence so that you don't have to go just on the word of a hideous demon from hell.

Pilot 03-06-2009 09:06 PM

Okay, finally got to doing the Dante's Inferno Test. I really hope nobody in this world takes that seriously. I mean really.

I'm terribly embarrassed that I'd even be considered anything close to 'repenting believer' :p And violent? How did it gather that?

Jesus Fuckin Christ. Although "Virtuous Non Believer" is a label I can live with.



The Dante's Inferno Test has sent you to the First Level of Hell - Limbo!

Take the Dante's Divine Comedy Inferno Test

:

Charon ushers you across the river Acheron, and you find yourself upon the brink of grief's abysmal valley. You are in Limbo, a place of sorrow without torment. You encounter a seven-walled castle, and within those walls you find rolling fresh meadows illuminated by the light of reason, whereabout many shades dwell. These are the virtuous pagans, the great philosophers and authors, unbaptised children, and others unfit to enter the kingdom of heaven. You share company with Caesar, Homer, Virgil, Socrates, and Aristotle. There is no punishment here, and the atmosphere is peaceful, yet sad.
