So what does that mark do? If he fails the requirements of his vocation. You see, you're making a supernatural claim. Without going into the discussion about pedophile priests again, since there are many ways to fail what catholics call a vocation. What does it do, besides being a claim? What are the real life conseuquences of failing?
And how can we know this mark is there at all? Has it ever been seen? Can it be detected?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
