\'\'\'However:\'\'\' I readily admit that there may be aspects of Morrigan\'s character that fall under ArbitrarySkepticism but her views on religion do not apply. If anyone has an example of her showing disbelief in something which is proven to exist in game (quotes preferred if you can) please do bring it up and we can put it back in for that. Until then it doesn\'t really belong.

What the last person to add it in is describing is closer to IfJesusThenAliens than to ArbitrarySkepticism. I think some of the confusion might be stemming from the fact that [[FlatEarthAtheist Flat Earth Atheism]] is a subset of arbitrary skepticism, as described on its page. That is, a flat earth atheist is an arbitrary skeptic when it comes to gods only but he may believe in any other random phenomena.

reason: Morrigan\'s disbelief is a clear case of Arbitrary Skepticism, which is believing in some things which don\'t exist In Real Life (werewolves, spirits, demons, etc.) but not in others (which is her). If the PC were to meet the Maker and she were to continue to be deny his existence, that would be a case of Flat Earth Atheist, not Arbitrary Skepticism.

* ArbitrarySkepticism: Leiliana and Morrigan can have an argument over the existence of the Maker, whom Morrigan does not believe in. While Leiliana claims that Morrigan should believe in him due to her constant use of magic, Morrigan argues that magic is something tangible and therefore real, while she has no proof of the Maker beyond vague notions.]]
