Interesting facts. (part 1)

I was just reading about Buddism and it turns out the tree that the Buddha found enlightenment under is called 'The Bodhi tree'. Is this some sort of coincidence or is someones mind work a little differently to other peoples?

why can't bodhi be discussed on the BG II board?!?

'Bodhi' means 'Soul' I think. Ironic choice of name, no?

This board is for discussing the BG2 game ONLY, not the things around it, as from where the developers were inspired to name a villian.

Curious point of view there, Istaron. Care to take it up with the folks from the BG2 Bar?
