    Someone send Roko a copy of James K. Morrow’s novel “Towing Jehovah” which involves the enormous corpse of God being towed, by a (much smaller) oil tanker, from near the Equator north to a fijord for burial in a cave. (I lost interest toward the end).

    It’s not strictly relevant - I don’t think the crew sets up on the corpse itself - but it’d be fun to watch where Roko’s head goes.

    “Step One: We kill God. Step Two: We harvest the cadaver, plastinate it, and build our city.”

      “Step One: We kill God

      I’m in for that. He can do with the corpse whatever he wants after, as long as I don’t have to see it.
