This debate won't go away! <Glorantha is not Earth? Gloranthan Gods are
REAL.> OK. So are Earth gods. Ask anyone. IMO, The only people likely
to deny it are scientistic [grin]. And that's only because they are
denying the real existence of their own god (and their blind faith in the
authority of science). And by the way, I have a degree in microbiology
and an unpublished manuscript called "Logical Mysticism: Faith, Hope,
Love, and Reason," (Scientism is not equal to science.) IMHO,
Gloranthan gods are real, myths are "true," and both change. The same
holds true for Earth gods. Paradox is the key to truth. The confusion
stems from the real existence of timeless beings who are also, in some
way, limited by time (voluntarily or otherwise). Hey, can I get in on
that materialistic/reductionist party? But I'd like to come as my
favorite paired particles, or perhaps my favorite swarm of plasmons.
Happy Debating,
