Carl-E:
What, you've never been given an Ives?

jwhouk:
No, because my parents didn't listen to Burl very much - other than during Christmastime.

DSL:
I was sent an Ives by currier.

--- Quote from: Is it cold in here? on 11 Sep 2011, 12:50 ---Is grief inevitable when love exists?
--- End quote ---
Grief is inevitable. The desire to not be separated from loved ones is perhaps the hardest attachment of all to overcome.


--- Quote ---EDIT: we've never seen religious feelings or activity by an AnthroPC. Are they that different from us? Is it a different feeling when you know for a fact who your creators were and don't have to take it on faith? How is religion different for a being that doesn't have to confront mortality?
--- End quote ---
Do robots pray to electric gods, you mean? Regardless of her mortality, Momo is not immune to the tragedies and imperfections of the universe, and the Four Noble Truths would apply to her as much as any other sentient being. Not every religion come with a built-in creation-myth, or concerns itself much with the creation of the universe, or even considers that the universe had a beginning at all.

As I said in the fan-art thread, I'd have expected Momo to sit in seiza or kekkafuza with her hands in the classic gassho position in this situation, but I suppose cultural conditioning would be a different thing for her.
