Do you think this is true or should Valeria be executed its up to you ?

Heresy.

Heresy and blasphemy.

Execution is too good for such Radical filth. Consign her to Obliviation, and make her into a servitor. Let those who come after look to her fate as an object lesson to educate yourself with knowledge alongside faith. Educate men without faith, and you make them but clever devils.

It is best to be a pessimist. You are usually right and, when you're wrong, you're pleasantly surprised.

No. The emperor was a pretty damn good leader, who unified a splintered human race into a cohesive civilization.

Now if that quote was applied to the high lords of terra, or any given member of the Eccleisarchy...

There is a small bit of it in the grey knight new codex

It was in an old demon hunters novel that I read once. I can`t remember its name but as soon as I saw that paragraph in the codex It reminded my of the whole story

But what I completly dont understand is she said to the Ordo Malleus what she thought and the Inqusition did nothing that speech that I was witeing about is 3 paragraphs long of accusing the emperor of sacrificing human lives to overcome what he saw alien unclean not understandable the last sentence accused the Emperor of madness !

It would have been more dangerous for her to say it to the Ecclesiarchy.

The Ordo Malleus was set up to combat daemons, not to enforce the Imperial creed, which may explain why no direct action was taken against her immediately.

She is not a heretic and the Inqusition did not report her speech and actions. Im starting to think the Inqusition is becoming more independant

Or perhaps simply disillusioned towards the Imperial Creed. After all, the Imperium faces one of its most trying times yet and, as can be seen in our society today, difficult times breed discontent and rebellion. (Albeit coming from an established authority such as the Inquisition seems most unlikely.)

The Emperor doesn't have a GKs unshakable faith in the Emperor which is....basically himself?

Also, it isn't the Emperor's choice to live the life he has upon the golden throne, he didn't want to be preserved past the Imperium's need of him and he certainly never wanted to be worshiped as a God!

I see the emperor as a great leader. He unified a race that was shattered and broken across the universe.

Fighting aliens wasn't the only option it was the easiest and quickest option, and it was also a way of unifying the human race. Is it not true that in times of war people will come together to defend in what they believe?

The emperor was not radical, he just made the easier choices based upon ideas such as those I have mentioned, and the fact that he had the space marines. I'm sure if he knew about chaos things would have been different.
