Swords Nitpick
Sh33p:
A very minor nitpick on the swords: Islam claims direct descent/familial ties to Judeo-Christianity. Muslims regard Christ as a Prophet. Shouldn't the Swords also be drawing on power from the billion Muslims on the planet too?
I know it's not much, but we've had an agnostic and a probable Shinto-Buddhist Knight. May have even had a recent Muslim Knight too ("The Egyptian" - Egypt ain't known for being a hub of Christianity in modern times), to say nothing of Shiro's idea that "God is God" -- which may or may not draw power from Hinduism too, if you squint at it a bit.
iago:
Is this an objection to a specific passage in the text? Page number?
KnightFerrous:
I believe he referring to the marginalia on ys278 converning how the swords of the cross channel the faith of all the christians on the planet.

Thanks! I'll add an interjection in there ala "—and possibly other faiths as well—" soon as I get a chance. (I mean, they are Swords of the Cross, so I get why it was said that way, but the OP is absolutely right, and I think they're more a focus for faith in the White God in its many forms.)
Rel Fexive:
It certainly opens a lot more interesting doors, that's for sure.
Oh, and Posty McPosterpants? Nice.
