<t>I agree with ignoring what was done to Eilistraee.<br/> <br/> As a system mechanically, 4th Edition is a superior [i:vkykpkar]game[/i:vkykpkar] compared to past editions. Classes are MUCH more balanced then they have been so everyone gets a chance to shine (which I would hope people would all wan...

<t>I empathize with Shirle.<br/> <br/> For myself, I will make a Feat for Eilistraee to keep her in line with other priests in the game.<br/> <br/> Also, I will most likely make my own setting, though FR is a place of fond memories for me that I still may play in on occassion.<br/> <br/> Why?<br/> <...

<t>My friends,<br/> <br/> You do not hear from me often unless the matter strikes near to my heart.<br/> <br/> Thus, I speak now on this matter.<br/> <br/> Eilistraee as a diety, does not need to be dead despite what that book says.<br/> <br/> Why? Because Eilistraee belongs to all of us.<br/> <br/>...

<t>Logic can be applied to any form of debate or argumentation, be it religion or science or what have you.<br/> <br/> Saying that logic isnt applicable in such situations is rather telling, and certainly gives insight to the responses I've read (thus the responses that had no logic in them, were il...

<t>My opinions are based on logic which are based on fact, not emotion.<br/> <br/> Emotion is inherently wrong when forming an opinion around any subject. Personal experience is an appeal to false authority.<br/> <br/> Labeling someones conclusion in a derogatory manner is argument ad homenum.<br/> ...

<t>Gender has nothing to do with empathy. Either you have it, or you dont as a person. <br/> <br/> Becoming a female wont suddenly grant someone empathy. Both genders can be as equally unfeeling as another.<br/> <br/> One does not need to understand what it is to be female in order to have empathy t...

<t>I suppose I get up in arms about such broad based statements as "to learn Empathy a male needs to become female when following Eilistraee" would be the same as someone else claiming "In order to fight well, a female needs to become a male when following Tempus".<br/> <br/> Just food for thought.<...

Thanks Sancha and Xandurpein for expressing much of what my points were...(the packpeddling/retconning...and caring dynamic of male/female, especially)

<t>[quote="Unen_Stealthfoot":2sadym7n][color=indigo:2sadym7n]Also, the IG world is completely incomparable to the RW. Therefore you can't say, well, this is how we do it, and these ideas have been around for centuries, millenia, etc. RL and IG have inherently different basic principles (like magic) ...

<t>[quote:2vv2mcul]<br/> As to the discussion... is there inequality? Yes, there is. But it isn't inequality because that's how Eilistraee wants it to be, it is inequality coming from the clergy. [/quote:2vv2mcul]<br/> <br/> Not quite true, if Eilistraee wanted some sort of equality, she would comma...

<t>Taking orders from females still occurs according to the above quote in the OPs opening statement.<br/> <br/> Males do not make decisions, females do.<br/> <br/> Becoming high rank within the church heirarchy (and thus able to give orders) cannot be done if one is male.<br/> <br/> That is both op...

<t>When one group has greater rights and dictates over the lives of those around them, and another group has less rights and say over their lives...this is inequality.<br/> <br/> You do not promote such equality by bringing other people into the elite group while leaving the other group right where ...

<t>I find this posting by the 'Hooded One' to be incredibly suspect. He claims Ed Greenwood states that in order for Eilistraee to accept male clerics...they cannot be male for that acceptance.<br/> <br/> Not only is this contradictory to Eilistraees faith of accepting everyone for who they are, but...
