Re: [HOE] New Martyrs for all you Templars! (Long, Possible Spoilers)

["Jeff Shoffner" <shoffner@esper.com>]

Okay, now while I have nothing against a St. O'Malley or St. Sitgreaves
(well, I do have some reservations with Sitgreaves, but I digress), I think
this is going a little too far.  I mean, St. Bruce Campbell?  Patron saint
of what?  B movie acting?  I guess what I'm getting at is if you push this
too far, then you'll have everyone in the game (dead DL PCs included)
becoming saints.  So what do we end up with?  St. Joe the Apathetic?  John
Smith, patron Saint of Brown Nosing?  Come on, let's keep it in perspective.

I guess what I'm saying is maybe there ought to be an outline of what makes
a saint.  What makes a saint today?  Would it apply to HOE? (I doubt it) Why
would say, Sgt. York not be a saint (oh wait, he is....) well,
uh....Hmmm.... Let me get back to this....
