Talk:Bilious

From Discworld & Pratchett Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

"Bilious was created from the excess belief that spilled over when Teatime killed the Hogfather, and may no longer exist."

But if only one person truly believes in a God, then that God never dies? (ref. Brutha and Om in Small Gods ) It appears to be clear at the end of Hogfather that one person (the Tooth Fairy) truly believes in Bilious, God or not... it's nice to think that in some corner of the Disc they may be living a relatively "normal" life together, and, as Sybil Ramkin reflected, "most people seem to manage when the magic rubs off"--AgProv 11:50, 27 April 2007 (CEST)

Tried to incorporate some of this into the article. Even gods w/ no believers continue to exist (as voices on the wind in the desert), which implies that, once a god is born, he can never die (so all those lares and penates still exist somewhere... just as the gods of Djelibeybi existed quietly until the events of Pyramids) Kellyterryjones 00:04, 27 August 2007 (CEST)
