I hate to use actual religion for this, since it pisses a lot of people off but since this story is a religious story I'll be explaining it in our religious views of history. Take for instance Christianity God literally spoke to Moses, gave him the ability to split the seas in order to free the Jewish slaves and after freeing them Moses tells them "hey I gotta go up this mountain to talk to God about rules he wants to give us." He goes up the mountain gets the rules which took I think 10 days and literally the Jews were worshiping a golden cow. Another is when Jesus was alive literally had the power to heal the sick and dying and the only time he got angry was at a fig tree, yet even though people saw him healing and doing things in their gods name they still crucified him in the end because he threatened their way of life and losing their wealth and power. I bring up this point because even in our own history people still take the wrong direction even if it is literally being shown to them in front of their eyes. Especially if they were not the one to truly feel the god or goddesses power themselves. Because in their mind well if I didn't hear it directly from them then maybe this person could be lying to ruin what we have now. Faith in itself is a very fragile thing, especially if you hardly had any faith at all. Example: let's say someone comes up to you and said "God has told me to come to you and tell you, that what you are going through is but one step in the direction you need to be on to become who I want you to be " you would probably look at them like they were crazy like wtf why should I listen to them they have no idea what I am going through at this moment. But God chose them and used them to get to you so you could hear these words so you know your not alone. But even small instances like this we chalk it up to people being weird, or crazy and even annoying. That is what most of these characters are doing yes their goddess is more interactive with them but the goddess has her chosen people the rest are blindly following what they think is correct especially of people who are supposed to be devoted to their god. Even our MC who had a sign she was the chosen one still doubted her goddess because she didn't hear the words come from her goddess to know for sure she was changed from her position. All she knows is she died and came back to a different timeline, not knowing anything but us as readers know differently.
Also sorry for the long ass paragraph lol
Honestly I already knew this but this was a good reminder. I remember always getting mad about that Moses story when I was a kid lol. Human nature is so strange
Human nature is flawed, in every sense but it's our flaws that make us human. We want something to hold our hands in every step, yet we also don't because we then feel restricted. Just how children want their mom's and dad's to be there but get angry that they are there or help when they want to do it themselves.
I get the girl being evil n everything but I always get so confused when people in high religious positions do crazy bs like this. Likeeee you actually literally get oracles and messages from your goddess. People literally have divine powers... why and how do you get to the point where you are purposely outright defying your god idk maybe the pope is actually an operative for a enemy nation and this was his long con or something I just don't get how you can believe in any god at all and disrespect one like this lol.
Also MC is dumb as shit n it's pissing me all the way off. Sorry if you were the wrong saint and the goddess didn't choose you then why tf did she send you back in time with all of your memories in tact... everyone thinks the goddess Is an idiot
