Would you want to be Emperor of earth and if so why?

Title says it all.

For me, I would, simply because this planet is far more backwards then it need be. When religious fanatics can force their will on others and claim it to be freedom, thats what I call bullshit. People should be allowed to do to themselves what they want.

We also need more funding towards scientific research, especially the engineering and related aspects (as opposed to particle physics and such with have no immediate benefit even tho theyll tell use how to create new universes 15 billion years from now).

mods, if you want to move this to slam be my guest. absent mindedness here.

Everybody would, because everybody could force their views on everyone else, and, of course, everyone is right.

By forcing my will on others, I'd be no better than the religious fundies. Of course, if I could just snap my fingers and secularize the American government and ensure that the separation of church and state would remain intact, I'd do it.

I have no objection to that.

I'd like to be Emperor of Earth. I would be a total do-nothing, know-nothing, and I would just use my position to become unbelievably rich and to get unbelievable amounts of sex. Whee!

EDIT:
On occasion, I would also enact Caligula-esque laws, like forcing all major league baseball teams to incorporate skirts into their uniforms, or making Kickboxing the Official Sport of Earth.

Not only do I wish to be Emperor of the Earth, but I will.

For the purpose of ending all mindless disputes and expanding into space...

You'll see...

yes. for it's own sake.

Skelron · Post by **Skelron** » 2002-12-31 07:48pm

Hmm, well no Emporer is so low a Title, If I was in Charge of the entire Earth I'd want something Grander as my Title, Then I could grant underlings the Title of Emporer of say Europe, and so forth. Of course my first official act would be to pump a fortune into research into establishing Colony's on the moon and Mars, thereby being able to Claim God-Emporer of Mankind as my Title,...that would do me for a Title I think actually.

I don't know. To much paperwork and to much politics would make it to boring.

But then again If I would reign surpreme on Earth I would fund Nasa with more billions and plan to build a man made spacecraft to Mars, and there build up new colony for mankind.

Clone myself so I still control Earth generation after generation and then expand my Empire throughout the solar system and witness the first FTL drive and then spreading out my influence throughout the galaxy, colonize it and find a new world I can use a capital from the very crowded Earth and call the planet Coruscant.

Subnormal · Post by **Subnormal** » 2002-12-31 08:05pm

The only reason I would want to be Emporer, is so I can destroy those pesky rebellions, led by idiots, who end up finding aide with little furballs.

Post by **Ghost Rider** » 2002-12-31 08:06pm

Hmmm...well aside from rampant strange sex rituals worshipping me and the bizarre dances...I think a reign would be fun if for nothing else to resolve all those bizarre conspiracy theories.

Post by **Sea Skimmer** » 2002-12-31 08:19pm

I'd declare myself God Emperor of all life and manipulate religion and ignorance to make my title very real.

Shinova · Post by **Shinova** » 2002-12-31 08:23pm

I think I would most likely use the global economy and scientific researching power to build myself a personal ubership or make me a near omnipotent. After that, I would probably either appoint someone else to rule the earth and then leave for the stars, or slag the planet then leave.

I don't think I'd want to be the Emperor of Earth. The peoples of Earth are a fractitious and quarrelsome lot. There's no way my forces could possibly police it all unless half the planet's population ceased to be. As a result, I'd have assasins coming at me every other week and three times on Tuesdays. And, if it's all the same to you, I like living long enough to die peacefully in my sleep . . . of old age.

Tsyroc · Post by **Tsyroc** » 2003-01-01 11:01am

I would just so I could try and avoid all of the pitfall cliches of being an evil overlord.

That and I would have all boy bands sent to prison.

I think Britney Spears and other annoyingly overhyped women of entertainment would have to go to prison too, men's prison.

Hey, it's part of my reform program.

I think I'd have to nuke some stuff.

Jerusalem would be a likely target, probably a number of times (helping to fufill Biblical prophecy in my own way by providing some "fire").

I'd make some big big big pushes towards coming up with good alternatives for using oil as a fuel. Then I'd let a lot of the Middle East whither and dry up, except for the places where I try to recreate the Fire Pits of Apokolypse by sinking nukes into some oil fields and detonating them.

Mwhah hahah ahahhahahahh!!!

Dang! have to work on that. Don't want to get carried away with the maniacal laughter.

jaeger115 · Post by **jaeger115** » 2003-01-01 02:38pm

List of things to do while I'm emperor:

Destroy all Abrahamic religions

Make sex legal as long as you're 15-16 or older.

Porn for all (except child porn)

Kick-start a massive space program

Covertly plant a nuke under Jerusalem and detonate it. then take advantage of this event to say that God's verdict has come down on Judaism, Christianity, and Islam and that they must be all destroyed

Create a global army to keep the peace and root out terrorists that threaten my rule

The Nomad · Post by **The Nomad** » 2003-01-01 02:46pm

Yes. I'd like to enforce :

1°) Definite separation of religion and state, as well as ban of religious indoctrination for children, free choice of belief at adulthood ( as irrealistic as it may appear, I consider it capital ). Any attempt to promote laws based on religious beliefs or to negate scientific theories based on their religious value shall be considered capital crime and punished with slow, painful anal rape and quick death.

2°) Rebuild a decent educative system

3°) Create a censure commission to ban bullshit emissions on TV ( no, Star Trek doesn't fit in the category I'm thinking of - not yet )

4°) More funds to scientific research

5°) Sexual freedom

You could become Emperor of Earth and then assign people like Darth Wong to the day-to-day administration of the planet--all of the benefits with none of the hassle. That's what I would do.

Post by **NecronLord** » 2003-01-01 02:59pm

Yes

And Wong will immediately be appointed minister of Engineering, Science and ANAL

Then I shall change the copyright laws to give me control of Star Wars, and Star Trek. Then I shall make a crossover series. Ok miniseries. I shall instruct the Wars writers to go forth and make the empire win by virtue of an escaped Admiral Thrawn and another Cloned Emperor Palpatine.

No. Leadership always seems simple until you actually take on the responsibilites of leadership. Armchair quarterbacks are a dime a dozen.

I wouldnt be Emperor of Earth...as someone above mentioned too many people trying to kill you. I would use the same approach as I did during my time in the Star Wars Combine. Become the shadow power, the puppetmaster...set up some idiot in charge who cant tie his own shoe laces and then run everything using him as my front man.....manipulating all the world to my will....

One minute George...I'll be right there....

Anyway....
