And there, the line is at last crossed. His face goes hard.
"NO," He says, firm. "There are Messiahs two upon his and his and no motherfucking others. HE KNOWS HIS MESSIAHS. He has kept tongue in maw for the speaking of such things, for she has offered what ought be due to their believance. BUT AS HE HAS SAID BEFOREWAYS, HE STANDS AS THEIR PREACHER. It simply ain't so that every bit of all complies togetherlike perfect. THERE ARE ALWAYS OUTLIERS, ALWAYS THOSE WHAT TAKE UP SIN AND FORSAKE SALVATION. There are those what claim to false gods and he will not have them comparable to what as he knows true."
Philosophy, politic; he can qo into discourse on such things. But he draws the line on faith and he will have her know it. He has had much tolerance spread for other such things as could be, the idea that there are other gods, other faiths what ain't all folly, and he would rather more faith than not. But this is not a thing what he shall wish to be pushed. "HE HEEDS TO THE TENETS OF THE DARK CARNIVAL, SISTER, NO OTHERS. Understand that. HE DOES NOT WISH TO CALL HIS FAITH INTO THE EYES OF SHARP TONGUED BEASTS. Perhaps and perhapses done. THERE STILL BE ENOUGH HERETICS AS IS."
