And that his Church's orthodoxy was in the wrong, as evidenced by the fact he still receives his deity's support.So Cedric's vulgar. Use of vulgar language isn't evil. In fact, considering vulgar language 'evil' trivializes the notion of evil, particularly in a setting where incarnate devils gad about with alarming frequency. So he's cynical at times, and that can construed as either doubt or nihilism or both. So what? Every person of faith experiences doubt and despair at some point. Doubt isn't sin. Not if the doubter finds the faith to more past it.And he consorts with prostitutes. He treats them well and with respect. Since Cedric's under no divine onus to liberate the peasants in the fields, to reorganize his society as a whole along more equitable and just lines, and yet he's free to participate in it's economy to satisfy his needs (say, like by any other good produced under questionable labor practices), I don't see why his trips to the brothel are problematic.   (this thread is like an addcition...)</blockquote>
