The irony here is that you still haven't given much context beyond whining about people asking you to actually prove your points and arguing semantics ad nauseum.

Okay, so you haven't even bothered to read the thread before posting, very nice.Dargoo Faust said:The irony here is that you still haven't given much context beyond whining about people asking you to actually prove your points and arguing semantics ad nauseum.
Udlmaster said:>Doesn't realise I already gave context and scans.
Dargoo Faust said:so far you've only given it for one argument. People are still asking for scans on every other point.
Ogbunabali said:If you have scans that shed light on it like you did with Lilith, feel free to do so.
Udlmaster said:>I'm not asking for context for this one exact quote. I'm saying context in general for most of these responses.
Okay, I really do need to explain it all don't I?
Lilith's cloak: In the Screenshot provided it literally states she drapes the cloak over the garden and plucks stars from it, What more context is needed? Do you want the part were Lucifer himself gave it to her stating that with it she has power over the night as he does with the day? Like, the scan is self-explanatory, the literally turns the cloak into the night sky and plucks stars from it, like this is incredibly stupid point of contention.
The Eye of Caine: That's literally the full description from the book, there is no more context, that is flat out the context.
Timeline Destruction: That's the full piece for the spell. Again, no more context.
Considering she uses what she plucks out of the cloak to plant trees in the very next line yes, there really isn't enough context in that scan to assume she can effect realistic stellar bodies. If anyhthing it just seems like a small scale reality warp as she's "draping" a night sky over an area several orders of magnitude less than what the night sky in real life equates to.Udlmaster said:In the Screenshot provided it literally states she drapes the cloak over the garden and plucks stars from it, What more context is needed?

Andytrenom said:@Darg That isn't really a no limits fallacy. Just saying.
They're asking me to prove something has no limits. I'm asking for the limits to be stated. I don't see how this doesn't qualify.Udlmaster said:First of all, prove it's a limited area
By definition, it is, he isn't addressing my arguments and is trying to discredit me based on "me not being fit for debate".Andytrenom said:Udl... That isn't an ad homien. He is simply doing his job by pointing out your troublesome attitude.
Yes, that was directed at you specifically. It also wasn't associated with my argument, I seperated it because of that for clear reasons. I was pointing out poor behavior and disrespect.Udlmaster said:By definition, it is, he isn't addressing my arguments and is trying to discredit me based on "me not being fit for debate".
Can you stop with all the passive aggression, you seem so desperate to maintain the ratings as they are that you are resorting to all tactics conceivable, no matter how low. It's all personal attacks and dismissing those against you as "haters" or ignorant. Or both.Udlmaster said:Gasp, Matthew agrees with a side that wants to downgrade WoD, shocker.
I would have never expected such a turn out.
Perhaps, however, that's not quite true in World of Darkness, notably because the fact that Dionysus, Baal, Astarte, Bel, Ra, Ptah and many other Gods all have their own Gardens. And this describes a part of the cosmology called the Umbral Courts: https://i.imgur.com/zVyER0E.pngMatthew Schroeder said:I think that Dargoo makes sense. It should be also noted that the Garden of Eden is both historically and Biblically identified as being located on Earth between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers.
For the cases of the Lilith ones, I cannot, the pages contain a lot of nudity, penis, breasts etc.AguilaR101 said:I don't particularly care about the verse. But IMO cropped images like those should be avoided if possible, it is much better if people just post the full page/scan and simply highlight what's relevant in it.
I can see your attitude has yet to improve.Udlmaster said:Eyyy, finally, you've bothered to go and try, now I'm going to tear it all down.
Good catch. That doesn't really do much to show that her garden is as or more large in scope compared to the original Eden, though. If anything I'd assume it's much smaller. So my point still stands, the land is limited in scope and not anywhere near the stellar range.Udlmaster said:Wrong, she is not in Eden anymore, Lucifer was guarding the gates from Eden, Lilith left Eden and created her own Garden:
"But these growing things were not those of Jehovah's Eden; for they grow only beneath the shelter of Night, and beneath the light of Lilith's moon. And Lilith walked often in her Garden; and she did feed the growing things with her own life's blood; and they flourished and grew heavy with fruit."
The whole bit on the cosmos as a while isn't even relevant to the discussion here considering we're talking about Eden and Lillith.Udlmaster said:Okay, first of all, we assume unless shown otherwise that things such as Earth, the laws of physics and space are all the same size unless shown otherwise, and thing is, the Cosmos in WoD is infinite
The links you posted above legit had nothing to do with that. I'd call the scans red herrings although I'm sure I'd get another mouthful of "ad naseum burden of proof yada yada".Udlmaster said:See above.
You're right, I don't know of or care much about this verse. The fact that the issues with its justifications are so glaring even I can notice them speaks for itself.Udlmaster said:No, not really, you just have no knowledge on the verse.
This is strongly true, and usually only happens with wanked / biased verses.AguilaR101 said:I don't particularly care about the verse. But IMO cropped images like those should be avoided if possible, it is much better if people just post the full page/scan and simply highlight what's relevant in it.
