It is the height of RP gatekeeping to write out cultural documents for others to join your culture, and then, when people call you out for acting counter to those documents, go "well, you can just ignore those documents. They weren't well written and the only thing that matters is what I say because I've been around for longer than you."
I'm sorry, but if you write out lore, then you need to follow your lore. Else it's not communal roleplay. It's a private circle jerk.- Show previous comments 4 more

Well, I think a lot of it comes down to a dislike of communal RP. I'm pretty sure this person wasn't the actual writer of the Scrolls, even if they were around when they were written. But communal RP is all about following the basic rule of improv, "yes and," meaning that each thing that someone contributes to the communal RP should be added to, not disregarded or taken away from. If this person thinks the scrolls are missing something, for example, instead of just disregarding the lore, find new ways to add. In this case, its canonical that additional texts may be discovered/written that, while lesser than the scrolls, hold great importance. These deuterocanonical texts are the best way to say "yes and" and not "no what's written is bad wrong. It's badong."

Don't bother OOC debating KP or others in Church Discord, the Prophet Owyn was Farfolk (and actually 2 individuals), Saint Juliet is Saint Juli'el and the Scroll of Auspice was a fake to push Raevir hegemony post-exodus. The Prophet Godfrey also had elven wives and concubines. Our anti-mix racing rule comes from an Admin ruling back in the day about double curses on half-breeds.
Most things about Canonism and True Faith RP is a lie and not worth debating at an OOC level, it's just about how you interpret the Scrolls IRP. Don't let it get to you too much, amigo.
