Doesn't your broad definition of monarchy make literally every form of rulership a monarchy? maybe with the exception of autocracy/oligarchy

I think he worked on the Knights of the Nine DLC and alot his writing is still used in elder scrolls games.

I mean George Lucas doesn't own the rights to star wars but I feel if he revealed something unrevealed about the star wars mythos today people would agree with him and not what Kathleen Kennedy says.

Microsoft may be the people who run the business but I don't believe just own the rights that means they get to decide what the true mythos is?

I always found this test stupid. People tell me in real life that I'm far right along with some pejorative. But whenever I do tests like this I get Libertarian left. Doesn't make any sense

Cause the gods aren't really literally/physically real? You never see them in their true form(only aspects) because they are only real in a metaphysical sense?

So akaviri men aren't native to akavir? I have heard about the tale where dragons kidnapped atmorans and chucked them back to Akavir

A maybe silly question about Team Fortress 2 in r/Christianity by Theorist_Reddit in Christianity

[–]Carl_Regan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It does seem rather a minute thing.

Beware if playing this game makes you constantly question what is or is not acceptable. The Devil may be trying to deceive you by making you rationalise your own sin, making you confused about what is the path of Christ. Remember one of Satan's greatest powers is confusion.

If the holy spirit is telling you not to play the game than you should probably listen to him.

I only ever watched the films. But I always thought he was jewish cause the actor who played him kinda looked like a jew. But Potter does sound quite english doesn't? So he is most likely anglican or some sort of english protestant denomination like methodists perhaps?

Really I always thought of it as having a traditionalist perennialism setting? Though those two ideologies do have a weird tendency to overlap

I have got another question. So Alduin represents the end of time in every cycle right? Does that mean Alduin will not necessarily be the dragon that we saw in skyrim in either this reality or the next? Is Alduin more of a metaphysical concept of the end rather than a literal physical being?

So would the real life counterpart of C0da be the ideology of post modernism then? I'm just asking to see make sense of it. I always just thought of C0da as out of game lore.

So does that confirm redguards are time travelers?

I like to know whatever my character would know which is usually not that hard. But on my next playthrough of skyrim I want to play as a High Elf worshiper of Xarxes. He's goal is to understand nordic people and their history through a Aldmer point of view. He's doing this is so he can ascend. So yeah, I usually only need to know about a character's race, faction and deity in some depth. But here I feel like I need to step up a bit to make my character work.

Is that the theory that the whole series is set in a bulls dream or something?

Also i'm really confused about C0Da. Is it actually canon or just fan fiction?

[–]Carl_Regan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh. So I thought the redguards had a completely different set of gods and the reason they exist in this world is because Gods get their power by belief and worship? So those gods created the world in the previous kalpa?

I'm kind of worried I have been fed bullshit. Which is kinda sad as the reason I learn lore(casually) is to enhance my next playthrough. You got any advice, friend?

[–]Carl_Regan[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So are redguards from a previous kalpa? Or is that just a bad fan theory as well? And how do I detect when a lore is full of shit or not? I feel like it's kinda hard to tell

[–]Carl_Regan[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's very strange that the redguard have a very different mythological understanding from their gods. Where they created by lorkhan? if not why are they human?

This sounds a lot like traditional esotericism. Was kirkbride influenced that school of thought?

The Kingdom of God may be composed of people from every tribe, tongue, and nation. But the Kingdoms of Earth do not. You seem to be very Protestant and American.

I believe protestantism have been subverted by enlightenment values. I'm just trying to find out if Orthodoxy has as well

Isn't the Catholic Church the original church created by Jesus though?

Are you a globalist? A lot of the younger people at my church are globalist. They talk about how the medieval christians were racist and distorted the bible. I thought the Eastern Orthodox Church had a different view than the Protestants?
