My greatest problem with Blackdragon's model is that it sounds very hedonistic (in a good or bad sense of it). Maybe it's because I've never tasted this lifestyle and I don't know what I'm loosing on, or maybe because I'm very spiritual and philosophical person, but I think such lifestyle in it's core is shallow and meaningless (funny thing I stopped on "The mission" chapter
). I think in the end it comes down to my dislike to Blackdragon than to his ideas and if I was able to separate them completely and adjust Alpha 2.0 like he suggests in some places it might be really good model for me.

For not by numbers of men, nor by measure of body, but by valor of soul is war to be decided.
