Kimberly and I are both playing and loving Dragon Age: Origins. Last night as I was running to kill some werewolves, I was amused and surprised to hear Leliana (she's spiritual, not religious) start a religious debate with apostate (yes, the game calls her that) Morrigan about the existence of The Maker. Some very familiar arguments made a showing. Morrigan doesn't easily tolerate people or ideas she finds absurd, so she ends the discussion a bit too brusquely for my tastes, but...well, she's a sarcastic witch, not a lawyer.
Was Leliana convinced? I doubt it. She's had her visions, after all. She believes fervently in the Maker's love, even in a world where Darkspawn routinely raze entire villages to the ground. And besides, if you found a magic watch lying on the beach, would you assume it just magicked itself into existence?!
What do I think? Don't ask me; I'm just a simply Grey Warden completely occupied with saving the world.

Can I just say that I love Bioware for touching on subjects like this and homosexuality in their games?
