Ooh! I sense a very deep point-counterpoint-countercounterpoint rabbit hole in the making.

Everything in a game world should be consistent between PCs and NPCs. Except if we can auto-kill them. Amirite?

Also, on other matters, both are wrong.

When did NZ get what Portland had back in 1957...

Kosher... pizza...

Note: it is totally possible to make a kosher pizza, in general. I'm referring to that kosher pizza.

I think the two times finding out about a creator most changed how I experienced things, neither for the better, were finding out Narnia was about religion (I read it in 3rd grade the first time) and finding out it was the same singer all the way through Thunder by Imagine Dragons.

All I want is for some kind of positive discussion to be had before Fearless Leader decides that it's not worth the headache

You're taking this way too personally.

Reading Narnia to my kids now, and while God and religion are central themes, the main point is Lewis working to vindicate his own preferences for fiction over what was considered hip in literary circles at the time. Really obvious now as an adult who has read "Important Literature" and actual Medieval Chivalric Romance. Voyage of the Dawn Treader feels like it could have come straight out of ghe 14th century, in a good way.

I think we need to have an uncomfortable discussion about "For the Longest Time". And "Show Me the Way".

It's also useful to realize Lewis was, religion aside, something of a misanthrope.
