I just chose a deity whose principle I would follow anyhow, whether they
existed or not. I mean, if I'm go with the flow, might as well have a shiny
canoe.

Subject: RE: [eqbards] Patch Message / worshipping
Before you read this just keep in mind im just curious as to why worship,
sure i understand that some stuff should be wieldable by deity specific
characters, but also keep in mind that they also should keep the balance for
the agnostic people in the world. I chose agnostic for many reasons, i find
i am more accepted in different towns because of this, not much but still it
helps. I like the idea of deity specific stuff but i *hope* that they will
not favor certain deities and have deity specific stuff for each deity as
well as unholy items for us agnostics.
On another note...
Why worship. This reminds me of an old pun advertisement i read somewhere...
honda in the 70's had an add that was something like :
follow us we're riding hondas
then a mile down the road harley had an add:
Ride a harley, don't follow anyone...
It says it all, i know i've gone off topic abit but i personally don't like
following something i've never seen... Why put my faith into something that
does not manifest its presence in the world? While all you worshippers are
spending time in the temples worshipping a god that somewhere someone is
camping, i'll be having a beer at the tavern with my friends 8) When ya
think about it, why are people worshipping a god? gods are gods, they cant
be killed by a group of people, doesnt make sense in my book.
Oh and ya some of the gods do have a presence in the world... but think
about it, my necro follows innoruk, and i have to kill my god to get the pet
enhancing book. I guess i'm agnostic after all. Either that or when i go
buy my next coffin in innoruk's temple i'll probably burn up on entry or
something.
