Bow ye all down and worship the Frog God!

Lol, suddenly we have a lot of healers!

But now that I have raised the question in jest, what god would be appropriate for Gareth?

Lol, an evil god? He is not evil, just a little misunderstood!

Who is your suggestion?

Pretty sure the Frog God isn't a good match for Gareth.  He doesn't like fire much.  Also agrees with Hadereum on preferring the dead stay dead.

"Heart searched. I am NOT evil. Tell me about Kami..."

Or perhaps En or Enji would be more appropriate! From Wiki...

According to Karl Treimer, Illyrians worshiped a fire god named *Enji, related to the Vedic fire god Agni, descending from the root *Hₓn̩gʷnis, the Proto-Indo-European divinised fire. In the Illyrian pantheon the fire deity expanded his function considerably, therefore ousted the cosmic-heavenly deity, and was the most distinguished Illyrian god in Roman times, when the weekday names were formed in the Albanian language. Indeed, the Latin Jovis dies was translated with the Illyrian fire god Enj rather than with the Illyrian Sky father, thought to have been Zot, from Proto-Albanian *dźie̅u ̊ *a(t)t (a cognate of PIE *Dyḗus ph₂tḗr), or Dei-pátrous. With the coming of Christianity En was demoted to demonic status...

A misunderstood god for a misunderstood man!

Re: Out of Character 9

The man who casts burning death on a defeated foe has a destination... why not secure yourself a place at the table?

He was only defeated after I cast burning death...until then he was simply repositioning!

You make is sound like my place is already secured! I purified the evil man with fire...I should sit with the gods for that, after all, don't they do the same? Ever heard of the triunists story of Sodom and Gomorrah?

Hmmm, maybe he should be a triunist?

I've met a few Triunists who think a lot that way.

But your own special god can be your friend, as well as your power and glory.  Mine is green and slimy and lives in the mud.

In reply to Gareth (msg # 56):
The Tripartite God uses individuals as vessels that be filled with His Holy Spirit. One can be ordained as such an instrument, as many biblical figure have, through the revelations of prophets, or saints. Indeed, pacifism is a heresy... but let not what may be your final vows, be impious vows, even unto the eve of battle!

Re: Out of Character 9

In reply to Jareth Mooncalled (msg # 57):
The tripartite God knows all the desires of those which he hath made. With our free will we must sacrifice our own desires and passions, in this life, and choose this willingly. In return, God will give us each our rewards, in His kingdom in heaven. This will be different according to each one's deeds, and to the degree one has cultivated one's spirit. But the aim is to attain union with the kingdom of heaven, through theosis. this is a position and a status that is higher than even that of the Angels in heaven. They are His beloved servitors, but we were made to be his true children and companions, and through serving Him, our rewards as exarchs of THE LORD, in His kingdom, are bound to be immense. not only everything in your life that you sacrificed will be multiplied, but who knows what sort of abilities we will have, when we too, like God, through our theosis, are no longer bound by the limits of physics, time, or space?
