Thank you for that, but why would I have to die? I suppose you have a really good reason to do something as serious as murder a god, especially in front of everybody else.
"Y0u ar3 a773mp71ng 70 k1ll a m0r7al."

Jens will be sitting in the back of the audience's chairs.

Isgon grabs a seat next to Jens. Hey Jens, could we not talk about killing gods?

Zenurion suddenly appears in the other seat next to Jens, teleporting any mortal who might've been here to his previous location.
No, please, this is a discussion that needs to happen. Repressing our thoughts will only result in the growth of our anger, which will in return make things much messier when it inevitably erupt. Let's do this while we are all calm and civilized, and under scrutiny of other beings, mortals in that case.

Now, why would the death of a mortal be enough to justify the execution of a god? Wouldn't we by extension, if the death of a mortal is punishable by death, need to execute the first being to think of the concept of mortality, which has and will cause many times more deaths than I ever will? Wouldn't anyone who creates mortals need to be judged as heartless murderers for dooming their creation to an inevitable and painful death? Wouldn't we need to murder every god whose aspect imply death, and execute ourselves for committing the crime of killing sapient beings, in this case gods?

Mortality is a fickle bitch.

"When a mortal achieves intelligence, he/she will eventually figure out that he or she is going to die some day. It's inevitable. However, you are just trying to kill a random mortal prematurely. Prematurely. It's a waste of life!"

Inevitable according to what? We created life, we can choose it to be whatever we want it to be. In fact, I created my own life to share our immortality. You call the murder of one a waste of life, but isn't constantly throwing countless lives to garbage to replace them with always new, quickly decaying ones infinitely more wasteful?

"He did. Quite a while ago."
"What Tick?"

Check out the Human civilisation. How well has Lolohe been managing and advancing it? What's the tech/magitek level?

Mortal literally means that they have a maximum lifespan and will die eventually. The vast majority of intelligent mortals know this, excepting those with delusions of immortality.

By your logic, we should never have created mortals, because them dying is wasteful? Yet you have created mortals yourself?

Oh, right, this is pretty recent. In fact I don't think they're even developed enough yet to be able to present themselves. They will be presented as soon as they have reached the necessary maturity.

((Basically they'll be announced next tick or whenever KJP does an update, unless something horribly wrong happened for some reason))

Edit:

I asked why did you all give them a predetermined time limit, not why did you create them. Aging is entirely unnecessary and in no way forced by the functioning of eality, while preventing all form of harm is impossible even for ourselves. You are entirely avoiding my point that enforcing aging is infinitely more cruel and wasteful than the murder of one individual and attacking a nonexistent strawman. I expect better from any of you who claims to be in the right or morally "good ".

"Infinitely wasteful? No! If anything, having a limited lifespan is more motivation for the mortals to actually get things done! It is the bane of procrastination!"
