I will restrain my words in the hopes of stemming a rift I see appearing. I also restrain the words taking what you say as being your passion in this endeavor and not your dislike of the ones that oppose you. I ask you to refrain in the future from implying that any who oppose you are a disgrace to the temple. You go to say that if I show respect to those of other religions, or even those without a deity to follow, then I am forgetting my duties as a cleric. Do not let this debate tear this temple apart.

Sa does not demand respect from all who enter the temple, or are you continuing to ignore my call for action on that matter? The portal that leads from the thiefs guild allows them to enter our temple standing. Only those who enter from the platform of the Spurian temple find themselves prostrate. The Saian temples in other cities do not offer this entrance. This portal needs to closed.

Saying that Ragarn makes his profit off the gift of Sa it true. Sa knows this has let it be this way. Sa is glorified by the use of magick, not its sale and control. allowing Ragnar to continue with his business unfettered by demands of our temple allows the free use of magick, and the glorifying of Sa. I do not find it sad for him to profit, that is the nature of merchants. There are runeshops as close as treehaven if you wish to patronize another merchant. they are not outragious in thier profiteering as they moderate thier prices to stay competitive with each other.

Is your voice the official voice of our temple? You talk of the temple working together, would you be willing to follow a different path to allow unity of the temple? Who are you to measure the service or contribution of any of the followers of Sa? how are you to say that Ragarn does not contribute to the coffers of the temple? I don't sit in the shadows of the alter room to monitor how much you contribute to the coffers. I know that for my part, between 75% and 90% of everything I have is given to the coffers. such things are between you and Sa. You continue on to say that if he does not bow to your wishes then action will be taken.

I suggest you work for unity within the temple before working to force unwarrented attention on a simple merchant.
