well, it can be argued that there is no way to control a galexy wide empire exept through tyranny disguised as theocracy.

ghandi was not a good leader just a lazy man that for some ungodly reason alot of people followed. yeah that whole im gonna sit here and not move tell you let us go thing was just him taking a seat and being too lazy to move.

its a joke calm down and laugh.


Was Horus right thats like asking which came first the chicken or the egg. however i will cast my vote with him being wrong. he was a soldier first and fore most. a soldier is taught to take orders without wondering why. he failed in his duty and also corrupted his brothers. he is in the wrong in my eyes

isn't it human nature to want more? the imperium could never have been properly stabalized. its not possible. the chaos powers simply represent humanity's greatest faults as manifestations. horus would have to have had some deep urge for more at the back of his mind nawing away like a rat at a power conduit. once it broke through his sense of honour and loyalty he was given a boost by the chaos powers to try and achieve the destruction of the very society he was fighting to create and protect. it wasn't chaos manipulation that caused his downfall, or the deciet of others. it was his own human failings that caused his fall from grace.

at least thats what i think anyway!

however the primarches are not truely human. they were created to be the perfect leaders, soldiers, thinkers, and the perfect lap dogs. When the Emperor jumped they should jump, when he said kill, they fought, when he demanded something it should have been done. Horus failed in this duty

The primarches are not biologically totally human, but psychologically they are. They are still plagued by the flaws of humanity. I think that no human empire can truly become stable and eternal. We strive for a goal, that the closer we get to it, the further it moves away. It is our basic instincts that have pushed us this far, but that we will never be able to break free from. Greed, anger and hatred will always surface within any culture and disturb the balance of power. Our freedom is our greatest strength, and our greatest weakness.

Humanity is simply not fit to rule its self.
