[QUOTE="Hex08, post: 8586073, member: 7029595"] Polytheism is real, the worship of the gods of Grayhawk isn't. Remember the pagan I mentioned in my gaming group? He believes in the Norse gods. I do understand that some people take religion seriously. However, not every serious issue has a place around the gaming table and while I certainly wouldn't be a jerk to someone at mine because of their religious beliefs these are the kinds of discussions that would suck the joy out of my game if I had to have them. As I mentioned, in 40+ years of gaming with people of various faiths (or none) across wide age groups this has never been an issue. Since you aren't willing to grant that we have differing views on the topic and that maybe that's ok, should I then assume that you are telling me that I should change my habits to accommodate something that has never been relevant? Are you telling me that if I accepted a new player at my table and their religion came into conflict with the way our game is played that myself and the rest of the gaming group should change to accommodate that person? Why wouldn't it make more sense for all involved to realize that the new player just isn't a good fit and everyone move on? [/QUOTE]
