Oh....uh sorry if I offended. Didn't mean to hit something 'fragile,' know what I mean?


Teaching Scripture requires a little understanding on the part of the teacher. We understand that, although we've grown up with this kind of thing in many cases, people outside the Empire think all of this to be a little arcane.

It's a matter of waiting and questioning the material at hand on the part of the reader. A lot of Scripture can't be understood unless you understand some basic Scriptures first. This sort of thing is fairly simple teaching, but you really need to know it all before you get into more advanced lessons.

It might take years before you could take a stab at understanding the 'Riddle of the Bridge,' but this primer on symbolism is a fairly good lesson for learning some basic truths about Amarrian theology.

In the meanwhile, Repentence, you're doing fantastic! I look forward to your next lesson.

"What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?"

Nicoletta Mithra,

it find it disturbing and entertaining that a commoner like you endeavours to lay out the truth before us, yet the only thing I can see is some unconnected talk about “higher truths”, “correct understandings”, “historical contingency”, “artificial differentiation”, and “reunification of mankind.”

I find it hilarious that your talking down to one of New Eden's foremost experts in theology. She's no commoner. And this is coming from a Gallente.




I know better expert in Theology than Her Grace.
