>>6329707Good sir, such an eloquent speech, I shall suppress the malus, unfortunately if you would have passed if it was simply a speech here you are in a debate so I will not give you the bonus of choosing the best of the three rolls and so it will not be won, even if it is not lost. I agree with everything and with your wisdom, even if I doubt that Charles would be an expert in gnostics, after all he is a man of the sword, not of knowledge about heresies. Brother Louis would have known of course.
>>6329969I have heard that recently some strange men began to worship God in a kind of reading clubs, outside of our mother Church, they call themselves "protestants" or something. I am sure two or three of them had a stroke when the read your wise and just words messire.
>>6330158>>6330310Indeed he is, may God bless him.

You decided to preach passionately for your parish, beginning to defy the vision of such a heretic, if his so called "gods" have been bought off by merchant they must be weak and false, unlike our Lord who chased the merchants from the Temple of Jerusalem. So you began to tell this.
-Insolent man, you should be whipped for insulting a gentleman. But I shall answer for the good people of these lands, so they are not laid astray for false teachings. I tell you that if your so called gods are so weak and feeble to be chased from the sky by merchants, my God, our Lord Jesus Christ who died for our sins and arose on the third day, has triumphed. Now he rules all fate according to His plan ! Yes indeed, our Lord Jesus Christ faced the self-same profanation when coin-changers clogged the Temple. What did He do? He cast them out with whips and overturned their tables. Behold true power: not the whimpering of compromised idols, but the righteous wrath of the Incarnate Word!
The man looked at you and the people too, they seemed to be shocked that there was only one God, one thing was sure, the heretic seemed unhappy.
-Your necromancer god of pain is powerless ! Merchants are reigning ! Soon his birth too will be ruled by them, for they are not simple merchants, no, they are the invisible hand of the Market ! A big invisible hand in the sky that moves everything ! This is the truth that the newfags do not understand ! They think that the gods rule but we are doomed to slop by the merchants and their hand !
You recoiled at this blasphemy to answer.
-I do not know about invisible hands, but my hand is very visible and it will end in your nose if you continue with your blasphemy ! For the Lord told that usury was unlawful. So he won. It is as simple as that, without absurd invisible hands and merchants who buy the gods.
The man answered, furious.
-Hah, and why is there usury then if your God is so powerful !
-Because you are heathen, so I call you all to accept baptism, enter the church, and be spared prison for your heresies !
