Capa's last post made me wonder, what exactly is... religion like where you're from? It sounds like people have pretty different ideas about it, and it's just where I'm from, we've got spirits and beings that kind of make it impossible not to believe that there's something out there.

I saw you talking to Rassilon.

Annoying and amusing, in relatively equal measure.

In what ways?

Re: Audio:

[tis_disapproval]

Superstitious, self-righteousness, hypocrisy and repression.

Why?

Re: Audio:

[tis_disapproval]

I do my best to avoid tangling with it. Magic, I can perceive, harness and control. Mythic beliefs, I have no time for.

[restoringhonor]

I see.

Re: Audio:

[tis_disapproval]

Do you?

Audio:

[restoringhonor]

Not really. Some of it's hard to ignore, but.

But...?

But there's not a lot of uniform spiritual practices in the Fire Nation.

Re: Audio:

Uniform or not, I find religion severely detrimental to free thinking.

I wasn't asking about it in terms of wanting your opinion on it. I wanted to know what people believe in, where your from.

Dwarves would mention ancestors. The Chantry, their 'Maker'. The Elvish, their 'Pantheon'. The Qunari, something else... The cycle goes on.

And then there are the numerous smaller cults.

The Chantry regard those such as I in need of either controlling or being put to the torch. Neither of which I favour.

I guess that makes your views on them being more or less worthless pretty valid.

Re: Audio:

I would hope so.

Has it always been like that?
