Re: thoughts on Theosophy Game...

The idea Chris has on a Theosophy Game is very intriging.

Perhaps it should be a related suite of games, with each one teaching
various Theosophical goals.

e.g.  I thought that the real world is a perfect example...

you have in society a group(s) of organized semi-secret Fundamentalists
who wish to dictate and mandate Morals, Religion, Politics etc.  they
release mis-information etc.

The assets used to fight these societal forces could take the form of
joining various organizations or manipulating them to further a
specific cause (such as World Peace, Hunger, Poverty, various Social
Freedoms or Political Rights too).  The world would consist of various
organizations to be used and coordinated to achieve this goal
(Theosophical Society, FreeMasonry, Unitarian Universalist Service
Committee, United Nations, various Governments, Corporations, Religious
groups etc.).  The object would be to maximize world harmony and
promote the on-going 'spiritual' progress of Humanity; to eliminate
hunger, Ignorance, Despotism, Tyranny etc.

The fighting would be done through the manipulation of the Media and
other "World" organizations.  People could choose professions such as
Political Activists, Conflict Resolutionist, Politician, News Caster,
Clergy, Media/Film Star, Author/Producers, non-profit Business
managers, Debater, etc.  They could join Societies, create News
stories, direct and gather funds for specific purposes, infiltrate
other organizations (??) etc.

The concept would be to ensure the survival of the "Cause" throughout
the various lives of the players.  One could add in Siddhi's
selectively for advanced players.  Also various Forces from higher
planes could be advised, consulted, and empowered.

kinda like what we already do...
