Well what i was talking about was not the concept of an divinely inspired concept of law-chaos. I was refering to how we, as players of the game, interpret such rules. and even divinely inspired wouldnt mean doodle in a world with a multiplicity of gods. :) one god says a=a, one says a=b. which ones right? unless your running a monotheistic game, or a game with a single big 'ole creator god that's still involved even clerics will have problems. joe b.
