Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dr. Strangemonkey" data-source="post: 997848" data-attributes="member: 6533">The Church could be splitting and killing itself over an issue that the god doesn't innately care about very much, or can reconcile in its own mind, and the god might not know of a quick and easy way to get around this schism that wouldn't violate its own ideals.The god might be viewing the conflict from a much longer term perspective which makes it reluctant to interfere, but happy to make recompense for the souls affected by the conflict.Another aspect of this, particularly if you are going to consider the reformation angle, is that the war is enough in the interests of other parties that is nigh impossible for the god or the basic teachings of the church to intervene.Something like the above would have to be true for the thing to get the whole 30 years war reformation feel. Remember which side of the conflict Cardinal Richeliaue(spelling?) entered the armies of Catholic France on.</blockquote>
