Salutations, mortals,

Whilst it is a joy to see lively theological discussions upon this
board, I am always dismayed when you lot do not prepare for such
endeavors beforehand. During these debates, the overabundance of
ignorance is simply astounding - specifically, ignorance of the
theological and philosophical precepts of the various religions that
prevail in the Land.

Mortals, open your ears and listen well. My teachings (and I would
submit the teachings of all the Gods and Goddesses) are available to all
who have the will and the drive to learn them. Thus I take mortal
ignorance of My teachings as a personal affront. I would even venture to
say that such ignorance is blasphemous to the extreme when you take it
upon yourself to be the subject matter expert of a religion. If you do
not know what Darkness stands for or what Darkness opposes, any attempt
to speak about this subject will end with Me taking a personal interest
in the matter as I will take your words as heresy.

Here is a small taste of My teachings for all of you: The only thing I
counsel My followers to oppose is ignorance of the Self. If
Righteousness, Light, and Justice are symbolic of this sort of
ignorance, then I oppose them with every fibre of My being. However, as
I think they are not, it is folly to state that My followers and I
categorically oppose those Divine Realms simply because they exist. We
are not so shallow.

I leave you with this advice: Before you engage in theological or
philosophical debates on the natures of the various Divine Realms, make
the effort to at least educate yourself with the teachings of a Realm's
Divine Patron. It will save you from the wrath of a Divinity should you
find yourself blaspheming against Him. I trust My point is clear.

In Darkness,
Lord Twilight Trismegistus
