Welcome aboard the USS Mountaineer, we are a
multifaceted Sci-Fi Fan club with
a bases in Star Trek, but we like many others interested in Sci-Fi are into all the
various
Sci-Fi areas. If you have a liking for Sci-Fi, we are a place for you.
While
we run the club based upon the roles of the Star Trek
universe, we recognize
all the other various Sci-Fi endeavors. We follow many other types of Sci-Fi shows, Babylon5,
Dr. Who, Star Wars, Battle Star Galactica, The Orville, SeaQuest DSV just to mention a few.
The
Mountaineers have a rich history, they are trail blazers, resourceful,
cunning, and most importantly very loyal. Or should I say fearlessly loyal. They make do with
what they have and above all else value life. A mountaineer will seek to overcome, adapt, and improvise when met
with a
situation they are unfamiliar with.
As our Motto we have chosen:
Ad audacter qua montani semper liberi,
which means "To go Boldly where
the Mountaineers are always free"
We are explorers, we seek to
understand new paths and create new
ways for people to live better
lives. To be a Mountaineer you must be
willing to give of yourself for the
betterment of the group. You must be
willing to look at all sides of
something before you and know that the
best path to take that
will not only get us to our desired destination but
will do no harm to
the land that is not repairable.
We live by the
Prime Directive of Starfleet.
The Prime Directive prohibits
Starfleet personnel and spacecraft from
interfering in the normal
development of any society, and mandates
that any Starfleet vessel or crew member is expendable to prevent violation of this rule. and As the right of each sentient species to live in accordance with its
normal cultural evolution is considered sacred, no Starfleet personnel may interfere with the normal and healthy development
of alien life and culture. Such interference includes introducing superior knowledge, strength, or technology to a world whose society is incapable of handling such advantages wisely.
Starfleet personnel may not violate this Prime
Directive, even to save their lives and/or their ship, unless they are acting to right an earlier violation or an accidental
contamination of said culture. This directive takes precedence over any and all other considerations, and carries with it the
highest moral obligation.
In modern views, we do not judge others on their
beliefs, cultures,
histories, we understand and accept that each person comes from a
distinct culture, and each must accept
this culture as it is the
foundation of each of our core values.
Each person who is a member of our group understands that at its core
we
are humans and part of this means we accept each other will have
differences in opinions,
thoughts, customs, religious views, race, creed, and history.
We
are made stronger by the diversity of our group. We are all inclusive
in
our membership. While we may not agree with each other views we as
a group are beyond such
petty arguments. We seek not to judge, condone,
reprimand people on their views, we however seek to learn about each other
as we take part in our group.We understand that certain subjects will cause
undo arguments and tension which is not productive nor required.
It
was the mission of Gene Roddenberry to show a world which was better,
a
world of acceptances, a world of equally voices, a world of one set goal. To be the best
we can.
We uphold and honor his vision in this group and will always strive to be
the best no matter the situation.
We challenge you to participate in this club as a Mountaineer ALWAYS
FREE!
