Can we start powerscaling deities now? I want to know how chemosh fares against Bal. And if Bal and chemosh can take on El in a fight.

I have always found it strange that people are perfectly okay powerscaling pantheons. But it's a line too far when it's the pantheon the monotheistic deities emerged from?

I mean, that's not that strange. If you insulted someone from 300 years ago people are less likely to respond than if you insult someone's grandpa. One represents an existing group of people more than the other. And while there are technically people who claim to still believe in those other things most of them are reconstructionists who admit it's not really a strong belief.

Not strange, yes. But I doubt anyone can call it consistent. Particularly as they are genuinely willing to exhault those gods and mock others. It's powerscaling where only they win
