I'm sure we could sit around all day throwing platitudes back and forth. There's a fine line between that and preaching, however. So to reiterate Rhythm: what is your point?
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.'

To be didactic, yes. Originally one of the ruling elite in Poland (like a baron) They were notoriously corrupt. It has been argued that it is largely because of the corruption of the magnates that Poland became the shadow of its former self it is today.

I also know what an electro-magnate is. Tiger

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or not. It's a great rebuttal for anyone who tells you that you have to believe the entire Bible though...
