I think that almost everybody here knows how Phil feels about Dark Brotherhood. For those who don´t, don´t worry, he´ll drop by and tell you.
But what interests me here is your opinion on these two groups. Which one do you like more? What do you think about their motives and quest lines in game(s)? Which group is more capable, cooler or deadlier?

I´m writing this just as I´m getting ready to go to bed, so don´t expect answers from me for 8 hours.
As for my own opinion. I like the concept and lore of Morag Tong much more than DB. Morag Tong aren´t some fanatics worshipping some arguable deity. They´re not sadists enjoying the slaughtering of innocents. They are legalized faction of Dunmer people. There has to be balance between Great Houses and these guys are there to keep that balance. If I ever became assassin, I would join this group, because they at least have some brains and sense in their cause.
As for Dark Brotherhood. While I´m not really fond of them, I would say that their questlines are actually better. It might be because they were in newer games, but still...it isn´t just "Kill this guy" all the time. There is some cool story for them in Oblivion (and in Skyrim too, but I can´t discuss it here). Don´t get me wrong, Morag Tong in TES III had some cool quests, but sometimes they felt like Radiant Quests from Skyrim.
As for my own belief...I´m not buying all that crap about Sithis. I just think that Night Mother is behind all that.

Dark Brotherhood! Oh man, who is the better killer? The ones who can execute publically for no bounty, or the ones who must have real skill to slay their targets?
Also... Shadowscales!

Why I am not surprised at all?
Yet any objections on their belief? Motives? Behavior? Come on, am I the only one who is bothered by the thing that Dark Brotherhood is only for sick psychos?

I wouldn´t drag real life Black Hand here at all. Serbia Black Hand was military secret society consisted of hundreds of members which goal was to unite some territories.
Black Hand of DarkBrotherhood is consisted of 10 members max. 1 Listener, 4 Speakers, 5 Silencers, whereas Listener and Speakers serve as...council sort of.
As for Night Mother...Don´t trust every crap Dark Brotherhood tells you.
And you are right, Lucien Luchance was an amazing twist. Oblivion questline was certainly interesting.
