[QUOTE="Hypersmurf, post: 2772602, member: 1656"] The spell says it can't be applied to a [i]weapon that has an alignment[/i]. If it can't be applied to a Holy weapon, it's because that weapon has an alignment. Since a Holy weapon is good-aligned and has an alignment, that alignment must be LG, NG, or CG. If it can't be applied to an Unholy weapon, it's because that weapon has an alignment. Since an Unholy weapon is evil-aligned and has an alignment, that alignment must be LE, NE, or CE. And again, this leads to an impossibility if we try to construct a Holy Unholy weapon... a weapon that has an alignment, that is simultaneously LG, NG, or CG, and also LE, NE, or CE. So, either a Holy Unholy weapon is impossible (because a Holy weapon has an alignment), or there's no problem casting Align Weapon on a Holy weapon (because 'good-aligned' doesn't mean 'has an alignment'). Both cases cannot be true. -Hyp. [/QUOTE]
