“Where do Outworlders go when they die?”

“Well, strictly speaking from our own theology, a human, an Outworlder, an Earth person, is not a legitimate creation.”

“You mean humans aren’t real?”

“Oh, yes, the creation of the lesser god, Angra Mainyu, or Yahweh, or Allah, is real, it exists, but since Angra Mainyu purloined the secrets of creation from Our God Philip, the universe of Earth is illegitimate. Therefore, to us, there is no “afterlife” for any Outworlder, just as an Outworlder may say that there is no afterlife for a dog. Angra Mainyu was able to copy bodies and material objects, but, only Philip can grant eternal life to all of us, His creation, Sarn Koren.”

“Than Earth humans, have no souls?”

“Correct, they have no souls...no real life...no hope and when Philip finally crosses back to Sarn Koren, all of the copy-world will cease to exist. When we watch a human die, we see only the...liquidation...of very poor copy made by a vastly inferior god to our Holy God.”

“Why then…why then would our God choose to incarnate into this false world, to suffer fifty years of a slow crucifixion, to never speak a word, to be so alone…why does Philip tarry on Earth?”

“To save the remnant.”

“The remnant?”

“Not every man or woman on Earth was created by Yahweh/Angra-Mainyu/Allah...so­me here, are drawn by Philip’s hand. When they see His hand moving across the paper…they will know and they will come to see the Secret God and in the Hour of the Crossing, they shall cross with Him.”

“And the Earth will be...”

“What happens to the Earth...doesn’t matter.”

“Even so cross, Lord Philip.”
