26. It may be argued that it is, in fact, Saint George

And this being the religion group, it can continue to be argued indefinitely at this level. This argument is mostly irrelevant, but may include arguments as to whether it is relevant, thereby making it relevant. Which makes understanding the original proverb a matter of interpretation, and therefore a religious disagreement. This disagreement will be left to future generations, who are vaguely cautioned not to anger the Lord by hurting each other too badly but also strongly advised to choose the correct side.
