Originally posted by AllanklesDarkseid isn't a god of death. Never has been before and from where it stands now I doubt that will ever happen in the future. Sure adjectives are a part of grammar but it's the entire basis for your arguments. You string them together to where it sounds really neat but when you break it down it doesn't prove really anything other than one vague statement to the next.
What? Adjectives? Last I checked that was part of grammar. I said DS was a god of death, in the context of what he represented to Kirby. I said, he embodies concepts that overlap those of death, nothing more need be said on that matter.To say he is a "god of death" is not some sort of accolade that I'm heaping onto him, which is how you seem to be looking at this.
I said it before, this isn't anything radical. Mythology is full of gods that embody broad concepts that overlap onto the territories of other gods in the same pantheon. Eos and Appolo. Hel and Odin. Ra and Horus, and on and on.
No one is saying he's the embodiment of death, however, the concepts he embodies may well overlap with certain aspects of death, so that death worshipers are [b]also
honoring him in their prayers. [/B]
What do these gods have to do with how you've tried painting Darkseid here ? Black Racer is the personification of death with the new gods so calling Darkseid a death god is really nonsensical.
So what ? Darkseid kills people so what ?
