Christopher DeanHOST
Syncretism is the blending of different ideologies or religions.
Christopher DeanHOST
And this works so well for the Confederated Force of Darkness because they are continually trying to reconstruct the fractured religion that was confused at the Tower of Babel.
Jason SpearsHOST
That's a great point, bro.
Allen JacksonHOST
We're just gonna worship all the starry host and we're gonna worship Baal and we'll just kind of roll it all into this and we'll just cover all of our bases.
