I thought I'd add to the question theme.

Do you have a favorite word? If so, what is it? And do you have a least favorite word? If so, what is it?

I don't know if I have a favorite word, but my least favorite one is 'secret'.

Mostly long, broad bibles.

I see. [Which means, no, she doesn't. But being Winry.]

What about books on alchemy?

I think there might be some, but not very many. Alchemy's fallen out of favor over here, and chemistry's taken its place.

Really? Hmm.

So...what's in a bible?

I could get you a copy of Newton's Principia, if you'd like.

It's mostly parables and other collected stories about God, his son, and religious laws. It's much longer and involved than it sounds.

(OOC: If she says yes to the book, it'd be a new-ish copy from another bookstore. XD)

That would be great, thank you, Mr. Fell!

Which god?

You're welcome, dear.

Yahweh, in a word. He's got quite a few other names, but God's just...well, God.

I don't think I've heard of him before. Leto, the sun god, and the Ishbalans worship Ishbala.

There's quite a few different faiths over here. Three of them branch around the same god, who goes by Yahweh, God, or Allah, depending on where you are. Religion's such a complicated thing.

It is. There really aren't very many people in my country who practice any religion, but...I know of two wars that broke out over them.

I know of many more than that, unfortunately. To be fair, it usually isn't solely religion. Sometimes, it's a whole lot of political or economic or other reasons that get wrapped up with religion. People won't go to war for their country, usually. They will for their God, without fail.

There are other reasons, all right.

I know. Believe me, I do.

It's not a good thing, is it, to know?

Not this way, no.
