Sorry for barging in on your little session here.. have seen some of your arguments earlier at this post and well I just had to write something..

1. Paladins are good in AdoD world cause the word Paladin stands for it, the first real soldiers named paladins were of the Karl The Greats army a Swedish King who fought in a religious war against Catholics, hence a religious conection. Paladins are the strong arm of the faith of good ones, In adod 3:ed you can read that paladins are always lawful Good but can serve any good who is considered good. Paladins and Adod is fantasy and fiction, ie fun...
Paladins have ther counterparts in Unholy reavers and Antipaladins, also more described in 3:ed and yes you can play as them.. So far not saying that in real life they are or not, that is always defined by thoose who wins, they write the storybooks..

2. Lawful Good is a crusader, doing what needs be done in name of good and law, but that is also to be defined, law, justice, good to smite evil in any way..

3. Rangers are abit set aside from the normal bias of good/evil, they are serving nature, good stands more for not harming and disrupting natures work, evil stands for killing thoose disturbing nature, though an evil ranger would never party with you in a city as well as an evil shadow druid would..
Hence to have a ranger in your party he has to be good if to venture with others since he more or less dislikes all other party then predatory animals...

4. As to Jon, hehe, your post was to long for me LOL.. As to the morale bias, good vs evil deabte.. There is nothing one can say or write that will ever do a difference cause people who believes will believe what they want, and their actions can be evil in others way, it is up to each person to find a way to define evuil/good or whatever for himself and be true to yourself..

Well hope you continue this discussion cause its a good one!
