I never mention religion in my talks; honestly, it's one subject that I try to keep distant from myself, though it's not because I hate religion, it's just that I'm starting to question the legitamecy of religion. Now, before you ask, I still firmly believe that Nero is too inconsistent to be considered; sure, he has a few moments where he's truly heinous, like with ordering Ben's crucifixion and even attending it, but he's also a manchild with delusions of grandeur. Nihilus is your typical brutish Roman who thinks lowly on everyone else, and ultimately refuses repentance. I don't know, wouldn't it be more interesting if Nihilus repented and became a Christian? Or, better yet, what if he started to question Nero's supposed godhood, which makes him conflicted? I'd say that if Nero isn't allowed, Nihilus shouldn't be either. Nero's directly responsible for most of his crimes, which makes him just as bad if not worse.
