When I think of Merlin, I think of Sam Neill with long hair (because he was Merlin in the miniseries, which I've only seen pictures from and want to buuuuuuy), and when I think of Sam Neill, I think of Jurassic Park. >.<



Crap, now I want to play God of War. Interesting topic, and I'm not sure how to respond. Again, I find myself nodding in agreement with Banu.

I think the Norse gods are always dieing in some story or another...

Hmmm .... the story of Baldr .... the story of Ragnarok ... hmmm, nah, the Norse gods never die. Never! *looks amused*

Seriously, though ... there's something complicated about the deaths of the Gods. Even though they die, they are not dead and gone ... and yet they are. Rrrgh. This is the third time this week I've run into trying to explain this dichotomy. I don't have time to explain it right now, but if folks are interested, I'll post about it later.

Nothing is every truly destroyed. So the answer would be a no, though that begs further explanation, doesn't it? Matter isn't created or destroyed, so in effect we ourselves are all immortal. Just not unchanging. An unchanging universe would simply not exist as we are able to comprehend. All things are in motion, and without that, reality would cease to exist. Things simply change forms. So you can 'kill' gods, so to speak, but they simply transition to another form. Did that make sense?

Nothing that physically exists can be destroyed. And we are mortal, because we die. Our soul may live on, but our PHYSICAL EXISTANCE dies.

And Gods don't physicially exist (or at least that's my view) so they can indeed be destroyed.

It sounds like a good theory, but you're using science to explain something that isn't supported by science. Rain occurs because of the water cycle (evaporation <-> condensation) not because of a god. If a god DID in fact control the weather, then it would be impossible for it to exist physically, meaning it wouldn't be subject to physical (or more broad, scientific) laws.

its late and I'm not going to read through the whole two pages that there are to read through ~rolls eyes at self~

Now I'm sure someone has mentioned this... but the Titans seemed to be powerful enough to kill gods... or something like that, I can't remember right now.

so... I think it is possible... and you would either, A: have to take the gods place, or B: open the door for someone better or worse.
