I'm sorry, I should have specified. Your outlook in regards to the importance of specificity is endearing. You appear to have little faith in the participants of this forum, though.
Results. They determine everything in a sad but true way. It doesn't matter if a man studies theoretical physics for 20 years in an attempt to prove string theory; if another man who has an apple fall on his head that gives him the idea that manages to prove it, than he is the one credited for...
I've no problem with the headdresses. Cultural variations are always interesting. Voodoo, so you know, deals with disconnected patrons that a priest makes deals with for personal gain. Ergo, its a very hedonistic practice with no real hesitation towards dealing bad magic on anyone who gives the...
