This will weed out the realists and the rationalists from the rest.

Put it this way: in The Elder Scrolls video games, there are Aedra and Daedra... distant gods and oft-present demons.




And in these games, I fully believe in all of these beings. Why? Because there is an observable effect as to them.

Now, there doesn't always have to be something observable for me to believe something... but it certainly cannot hurt my confidence in it. Hence science Big Grin

Dammit Vae quit being awesome. Using Elder Scrolls mythology to prove a point? VAE. VAE. WHAT ARE YOU DOING. STAHP! AWESOME OVERLOAD!!
