Err, I’m sure Niara can and will speak for herself but you might want to rethink your post as your quotes don’t in any way disprove anything she has said and if anything support her argument over yours. She has never denied that some, or even most, paladins follow one or more deities, only clarified that not all do and that there is an in-universe explanation of this.
No I dont think I will. If someone wants to talk down to me and try to belittle my view/playstyle as somehow inferior, homebrew, or Most importantly NON Canon, by using the back of their hand. When they are actually talking out of their ass, then they deserve a barb or two in return.
Ohhhkay. I think your “barbs” critical miss and you’ve misunderstood what Niara has been saying, but it’s your choice.
"You may call it 'nonsense' if you like, but I've heard nonsense, compared with which that would be as sensible as a dictionary!"
