@elvenmaidinn@RageInsomnia@Nobleshield@LostLoreScholar The original meaning of "Paladin" prior to RPGs was a Knight of the Palace.
However the original such knights were the Knights of Charlemagne who were supposed to be paragons of virtue.
(Just look the other way while Astolfo deflowers an entire village. Yes, that happens.)
@roguecaliber @osgamer74 True.
Just remember that they are likely also ranting at other Christians for the sin of being the wrong kind of Christian.
Sadly this happens with almost all religions that come in different flavors.
@roguecaliber @osgamer74 Due to the likelihood that you live in a majority Christian nation, selection bias.
If you lived in India, the majority of the mean people you run into would be Hindu.
@elvenmaidinn@Eissbott If you want a serious answer, the brain demands a rest period for maintenance reasons.
Without it, the hallucinations start impinging on reality...
@elonmusk Arius and Origen made quite a clever pair.
Immutable divinity made Logos out of air.

And told him if he can't recant he oughta shut his trap.
@Rothmus Hunger Games's particular flavor of dystopia is too improbable for me to worry about it.
Fahrenheit 451 and Brave New World feel the most likely.
@donutzski@honeyvonbunny Standard fantasy elves are anywhere from 6 inches shorter than average to 18 inches taller than average depending on the fantasy world and the sub-species of elf.
This disregards the 6 inch to 3 ft. tall variety that tends to be called "elfs" rather than "elves."
@FuckKoroks Everyone's hypersensitive these days.
A quick glance at Steam reviews tells me DD2 is only mixed because there are some performance issues on mid to low end PCs.
