Thuderclast snd the unmade with the fused and regals acting as support should be enough. The heart could cause the leaders to fall into hedonism while the mid night mother murders the middle commanders . While the thrill cause the common men to turn against each other then have your army attack from without while the other half attacks from within with the help of Dai-Gonarthis

Exactly I could easily see him being in a relationship already post time skip. I see no evidence that he is either asexual or aromantic.
-
Why why not? I see no reason for him not to have a romance now, even if he’s going to just become a side character
-
So you’re saying that she means it metaphorically? Because that is what we mean when we use god in that context
-
I see and I think you are correct atheism is ultimately a useless word as it only tells you what someone does not believe in not what they believe in. It’s better to divide it into two categories, spiritualist, and materialist. She obviously is not a materialist as she lives in a world we’re inmaterial is merely a matter of course. She would probably fall under the category of spiritualist. She believes in the immaterial the spiritual but doesn’t believe in divine authority or follow any divine law other than her own preference . Or something like that at least. Honestly, I’m not sure we have categories for her. She does seem to believe in some kind of divine authority (the title god is a title of authority after all) she just seems to ignore it. Except for most atheist, don’t use those terms seriously. As it would imply that both nuclear weapons and particles are thinking agents. Are you implying that she doesn’t believe that Todum is a thinking agent?

Should I read Edgedancer before Oathbringer?
bmcclure7 replied to bedtime's topic in Stormlight Archive
Yes, you should definitely read it before there are some key character development that happens in edge dancer that is needed in order to understand the events in oathbringer -
A Roshar without the Everstorm, and Odium's backup plans
bmcclure7 replied to Cocoa's topic in Stormlight Archive
Yes, I agree. This would be his best course of action. Maybe research an alternative way to restore the parchmen. Without the everstorm. -
I mean, we’ve seen fuse for betray odium for less important matters than romance I’m not sure it’s so far-fetched.
-
Nice thought, but I don’t think he is capable of changing retribution into redemption. Just because two words are similar that does not mean that they describe similar concepts. And while vessels can have some influence on their shards intent, they cannot change the overall intent I failed to see how she would be compromising on anything she hasn’t already compromised on. But I do agree it’s unlikely to be successful even if she were to try. Hasn’t she already admitted that she believes that there are gods (she just doesn’t believe in God) that seems to me that she has already compromised on her atheism. I’m not sure we can even call her that anymore.

I know that we have a way to translate stuff into women’s script, but I was wondering about glifs?

A Roshar without the Everstorm, and Odium's backup plans
bmcclure7 replied to Cocoa's topic in Stormlight Archive
He probably would be able to put another plan in place for another generation or so -
How about best

Gives some of best or worst moments you had playing the Stormlight trpg

True but kondra can still be killed. It’s difficult but not impossible. It’s much more difficult to kill someone unlike the Lord ruler and considering an impression God is after you it makes sense to make yourself as invincible as possible.

1. I probably would’ve also suppressed technology. I will need to ensure that my rain is stable for at least the next thousand years so I can once again enter the well of ascension and save the world. I definitely would’ve made myself a mistborn That was the only way I could survive for 1000. I would not have separated the Sak and the nobility. I’m unsure what I would’ve done about the ferochemiest but I probably would not have turned them into mistwraphs . I could keep going, but overall, I would’ve still gone with the basics outline of his plan create a stable system that will last for 1000 years I would’ve however I’ve tried to cope about it in more gentle unless psychopathic way.

But this is the best theory so far for what the men of red and gold are I’m convinced

Preservation vs Ruin and honor vs odium Harmony and retribution vyre and iron eyes kal and kel Ghost bloods and the knights radiant are Roshar and Scadrial experiencing some kind of convergent evolution ? What could this mean for the future ?

1. I don’t know what to tell you, but his body stopped functioning so I don’t know. What do you call that other than death. If your heart stops speeding and your brain use the function what can that be but death. Certainly everyone thinks he’s dead so you can call it whatever you like, but it doesn’t change what it is. 2. Again You again can interpret it however you want but within the story it’s clear that people will interpret it as divinity. 3. Again, no one cares about your definition.Within the story, these events have happened according to their definitions. All that matters disagree all you like it won’t change the facts You disagree with my supporting evidence, but you don’t refuse it that’s why I’m frustrated and that’s why I called your argument, stubborn. Imagine if you said prophecy important part of Mormonism because its founder Joseph Smith was a prophet. And I said I disagree that Joseph Smith was a pro profit so therefore prophecy cannot be part of Mormonism. That is what your argument is like.
-
1. You keep saying we disagree you actually show me where my argument is wrong. I know we disagree obviously, can you or can you not refute my claim? 1.5 Again what you consider to be divine DOES NOT MATER . With the story he is. Making divine a theme for him. Are you capable of see the difference a story and reality? 2.There not contest because that would mean you could come up with a counter argument not simply say you disagree 3.I provide many reasons for why you were wrong read what I said. 4. Christ, Kel and Kal. Those are the 3 I am taking about .
-
that’s part of it. I also think that he was trying new things in WAT : sometimes when you try new things, you create something beautiful sometimes you create something inferior that’s just how it is. For me it was mainly Kal storyline, and Renarien that didn’t work both were him trying new things that just didn’t work. Take or revise both those storylines and I think the story is mostly fine. I agree more at any time and more early readers so we can engage their reaction.
-
I have already demonstrated that he has both he died and was reborn as a Harold. Harolds are divine at least according to the religions of Roshar. Making divinity a theme for him.
-
1. Not yet but since he is coming back it will happen 2. If fool is an insult then I apologize stoborn and wrong a correct discrimination of your arguments. So I refused to apologize for that. 3. Fair point I agree that the author has exaggerated the point but the point exists there is a connection a pattern between the 3. 4. We have been over this She has no disciples and no divinity she only has the resurrection as the say one is an event 2 is coincidence 3 is a pattern.
-
90 percent of Roshar worship the heralds as gods so literal pick any one of them. Name a single insult I gave you? He said he was not intentionally inspired by Jesus, but he himself admits that Jesus has so infuse or notion of hero that he is not surprised people make the connection. You can have unintentional inspirations. The Lord of the rings itself was not intentionally a Catholic book at least not on the first draft. And yet even at that stage, it was a significant inspiration. I admit that it’s not a one-to-one comparison and they’re definitely differences, but there are enough similarities that it’s not a coincidence like it would be for someone like yumi

1. Using the Christian definition of God, I would say no, but using the definition of God used by the people in the world, I would say yes he is a god. And even if he was not he is perceived as a god, thus divinity is a theme of his character, whereas divinity is not a theme of the character yumi how many more times do I have to say this? 2. As a sidenote It is full to speculate what is in a man’s heart nonetheless for the purpose of argument, I will play the fool. As evident in his interviews. Sanderson is a progressive as such we can’t even be certain he accepts the divinity of Christ (using the Christian or Mormon standard) (many progresses do not even if they call themselves Christian or Mormon) 3. To continue this rather foolish sidenote. When discussing morality Brandon Sanderson seems to reflect postmodern ideas I won’t necessarily call him a postmodernist, but if he was, then he may not believe that there is anything to divinity other than perception. He may reject the idea of objective divinity outside of perception entirely. As I said, he hasn’t said anything so I don’t know this is just speculation. 4. I accept that we see things differently, but I will not accept is that our views are equally valid. Your view is based on being a stubborn fool who won’t accept evidence. Where’s my view is based on patterns in the text. I have addressed all your counter examples and you just repeat them.
