Well, GreenKnight, a lot of dumb people still believes in god in 2005. Heck, a lot of dumb people even blow themselves up for something that doesn't exist so... well... shall we say that "belief" is an allowed thing? Yes?
So, everyone is endorsed to believe everything he thinks is right.
So one believe that a god created Eva from a bone of Adam. Very well, i can respect that. Somewhat.
Another believe that by blowing himself up in a bus full of civilians he will receive the paradise with sixty virgins at his disposal to fulfill wathever deside he has. I have a much harder time respecting this. In truth, i don't.
Another one believes in Mammuths, and his sure to find them somewhere in the world, and passes his whole life in a doomed quest to find something that doesn't exist, but in doing so causes no harm at all to anyone. NOW, here is someone i CAN respect... and feel pity for.
This is all to say that, in the end, good and evil doesn't exist... i never, ever stated the contrary.
This is why i oppose a pledge to banality and superficiality as to create a "good vs evil" situation. Because, you know, i don't really think dark knights *are* evil.
Moreover, they are called "Dark Hunters"... and they attack... what? civilians, mostly, and don't become involved with armies or somesuch. In fact, i believe that they might be one of two things:
1)Slavers
2)Witch hunters
That would make them already paladins. Cheers.
Before there's any talk of adding new cliches, I'd rather the ones that already exist were fleshed out and given some reason for being. Give them a home, and a point, and make it better than THE FORTRESS OF DOOM and BECAUSE BEING EVIL IS COOL.
I agree. Completely.
