View Full Version : Christian symbol for paladin?

Obviously nothing in the game has anything to do with Christianity but paladin has its' symbol on her chest, why not just neutral cross like on the ambulance instead of "t" cross?
Wouldn't that be much better and more consistent?

I don't like Christianity(or any religion for that matter since it's all just institutionalized superstition) for obvious reasons of course-

and the main character of Christianity didn't even exist-

Also, for better or worse, the origin of paladins is fairly Christian IIRC. I'm a bit rusty, but I seem to recall an association between paladins and the court of Charlemagne. Please bear in mind this is coming from someone who finds all organized religions as no more or less believable than Pastafarianism -- to me it is a simply an issue of history.

Obviously, I meant the metaphysical structure of the game world. Priests are just shamans channeling mana.


This one would have been better(imagine it shiny and light blue)-

Or, better yet, why not having whatever emblem you pick on any character?

Btw, I was always disappointed how in King's Bounty you can't see visual changes on your character if you equip him with something, like in all other RPGs.

I can't believe that you have written it seriously. Dumb trolling / starting flame war attempt.

Kind of have to agree, this thread should be deleted. I don't like religion either, but you don't see me making dumb threads about it. He's a damn Paladin, he OBVIOUSLY follows the church which was not a hidden concept at all in the first game (Starting zone and Marsh?) so he's going to have a cross of some kind. Simple concept your ignorant mindset can't grasp, don't post this crap again.

Why do you care that they show a cross? You a vampire?

Besides, no religion or disbelief in a religion is the same as religion. You have a unifying set of beliefs that you can't prove and as evidenced by this thread, seek to impose on others. You've displayed an impressive bit of hypocrisy.

If you just kinda believe that god exists, but do not practice any rituals, and have do no other acts that would equate you with a specific religion, are you part of a religion? Which one?

Atheism isn't an attack on diversity, it's a defense of reality.
