Implying humanity is defined by mental aptitude? I'm not human, and I'm smarter than y'all. I think you'll find humanity is.defined.by purity of spirit, something conspicuously lacking in incubi. Anyone who uses the word 'Ya'll' as if it were proper is clearly lacking a number of brain cells therefore your assertion of being 'smarter' is herefore denied.

Please do call again once you've developed beyond crude phonetic utterances.

Cheers,

The Weary Time Lord Sadly my friend, gods tend to fall victim to the Dunning-Kruger effect very easily. Yes it is sad isn't it? One would expect a deity to be much more refined in their view of reality and more perseptively impartial considering gods are supposedly omnipotent. To be fair though, despite her ego, deep down she may be just a scared kid (who sadly lost herself to madness). When she just poofed into existence, there was no one to teach her, to keep her company, to keep her on the straight and narrow. All she had for "company" was a dark-blue tapeworm who kept birthing "humanitarian" plants and animals. That's bound to drive anyone insane. And thus helped humans evolved in order to finally have her "own" people... then her lonelyness decayed into egomania due to other events and alas, leaving us with this rezult. If only there was someone to teach her... Say Doc, would Ilias' early days of life count as Fixed Point in Time ? *wink wink* Well now Lance that is an interesting thought. Personally, as a bendable rule, I tend to think of time as a constantly expanding mural. You can add to the mural, change pieces of the greater picture, you can even paint whole new scenes over an already existing landscape. But either way the mural will continue to change; even if the older layers are still under there waiting to be rediscovered.

So in less poetic terms nothing is ever truly locked in. Especially when one factors in the unpredictability, resilience, stubbornness, and boundless courage you Humans seem to possess in a great capacity.

Good Luck
