NOTES: Deeply Serious Theological Discussions

Theological question!

Did the Maker and Andraste fuck? Also like what would happen if the Maker did fuck somebody and got them pregnant?

Also also for my Rifter bros so we can be inclusive and shit on the gods without getting smited, do your deities fuck and how's that work out for everybody.

The Chant in its entirety will give you a better understanding of what he took out of context.

[windyvoice]

[ SOUNDS LIKE HOMEWORK. ]

.........How long is it..?

[mereandrastianism]

Does that matter?

[windyvoice]

It totally matters.

[mereandrastianism]

Long enough to contain the Maker's wisdom.

[windyvoice]

My dude married a mortal woman and then got super butt hurt when she died, how wise can he be.

[mereandrastianism]

With an attitude like that, you might not find it terribly enlightening.

[windyvoice]

It's cus gods suck. That's like a universal truth.

[mereandrastianism]

[ How dare. But aside from a slightly longer pause than before, she answers in the same even tones. ]

I'm afraid you've been given poor information. That isn't the case.

[windyvoice]

Mmmmmmmmmm, nah, I mean maybe the Maker doesn't suck as some of them, but like generally speaking? Gods suck. Absolute power and all that shit.

[mereandrastianism]

I suppose it's a matter of false gods. An incorruptible being can be trusted with absolute power.

[windyvoice]

Nah, they're real. And that's saints, cus they're mortal right?

[mereandrastianism]

You'll have to clarify.

[windyvoice]

Saints understand people, because they were people. There's things about mortal living that a god isn't ever gonna get.

[mereandrastianism]

Again, Andraste was a prophet. I'm not sure where you learned your theology, but it seems rather questionable, based on the truths we know.

[windyvoice]

I mean I learned the Sainted Britons shit mostly and they were all about the ancient faith which is from liiiike... The Cradle? I dunno, I think it's called Abramic and it's got like a lot of the oldest families.

[ a pause to remember tales of childhoods past and relevant twitter posts. ]

Anyway, their monotheists and I think they only got the one dude they call Prophet, so I guess they're pretty similar to y'all. But like still pretty different from me and a lot of other Britons.

[mereandrastianism]

You're a Rifter.

[ Look, the phrase my Rifter bros didn't mean as much to her as it probably could have. Has she ever heard the word bros before? Proooooobably not. ]

If you're interested in Andrastian theology, I can help you find some children's primers. I think you'll find that our faith differs rather sharply from what it is you were taught.

[windyvoice]

Yup, I'm a Rifter.

Sure, could be interesting. I mean might as well learn about the dominant religion of the place I'm stuck in, anyhow.
