Your alignement represent your current state of mind not the one you had in the past. Obviously I don't allow people changing their alignement without a good reason. Oh here is the paladin, I am thinking of giving a donation, can my alignement switch to neutral.It requires something big to change it. It can be a long process :Every night before sleeping during a three months trip the rogue talks with the paladin about their vision of the world and he realised that his current way of life is not really the right one (can apply to both here). Or a very shocking moment, the paladin wife get killed by the son of the king he respect, and in a raging moment he killed him in revenge switching his alignement to chaotic.But it doesn't matter, when the change of philosophy occurs the alignement switch right away. So in my view the serial killer would not have been detect by the paladinbot. because his alignement was already neutral or good.Another error that people frequently do is associate good and evil deeds with a particular religion. Religion only distorts the truth, in the real and fantasy world. In my view there are absolut good deeds and absolut evil deeds unrelated to any religion. I will not go into which religion is the closest to the thruth, because I don't know.The example of Hypersmurf about the norse mythos is funny but in my campaign this paladin would loses his paladinhood on the spot. Yes you need to convert the souls to increase the celestial army but by killing the people you become evil yourself and will increase the opponents army. I strongly beleive that the gods will prefer to have the soul of a very high level character than 1000s of 1 or 2 level commoner, so stating that this paladin is a martyr ( I sacrifice my soul to increase my gods power) for the cause goes nowhere, because you will increase your opponent strenght by doing so.</blockquote>
