I have taken some time before replying to your post, to avoid a purely emotional response. Now I will clarify. When I say that the Amarrian faith was not enough for many, I do not refer to those who have died. If their faith gave them peace in death, so be it. I refer instead to those living, or having lived, under the Faith and committed varying degrees of atrocities despite moral guidelines and commands. I also refer to some who grew up in the Faith but have seen these atrocities, or been faced with other trials, only to be forsaken by both your God and His supposed People despite following the ethical and moral rules.

And on any old temperate world you can head into a deep cave and find a host of creatures who do not need any light to survive because they developed in the darkness.

The end of life as we know it is not the end of life.
Your arguments are well thought out, but in the end they are purely semantic. What comfort would knowing these things be to one who has been forced from their home, returning years or even months later to see not only the structures but also the plants, the animals, the very sky have all become some strange and twisted abomination of the land they loved?
