Yeah, I think the absolute values vs. relative values has a specific meaning. I'm just guessing, but I think part of it is that things either are true or they are not. They are good or they are not. They are beautiful or they are not. (From his point of view, anyway.) "Respect for nature" is kind of murky as values go.

And presumably, since God is the ultimate expression of truth, beauty, love, goodness, etc., those things exist regardless of whether anything else does. They are eternal. The "relative values" he mentioned are about the material world.

...Or I could be totally wrong. But the distinction made sense to me that way, so I'm going with it.

Dude, if I were Jennifer Garner and I were lurking here, I'd be rounding up some ninjas to protect my kid from an ita kidnapping-cutepocalypse.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well that makes sense. But since I'm Mr. anti-dualism, I find stuff like that annoying.

The antichrist isn't necessarily a person but an attitude.

You rang?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I like to borrow kids and pinch their cheeks and indulge some fun naughtiness. But I give them back always, and more hurriedly if bodily fluids are concerned.

Violet does look like a cute baby to borrow, though. Maybe Gwen Stefani's boy can impregnate her and Shiloh, and then there could be supercuteness.

Heh.

Is the Antichrist a vibe you can send out to people who annoy you? Does wearing leather make it easier to be Antichrist-y?

That's right your attitude is the beast, it can only be placated with 6 strips of bacon, 6 pages of porn, and 6 cigarettes.
