I...didn't really think I was being defensive? If I came off that way then I apologize, I wasn't like, super-offended by Callan's post or anything, just kinda clarifying a point from my own earlier post and then adding another to the discussion.
ETA: Actually, something else I just thought of in the process; if we assume for the sake of discussion that the Solitary God is indeed the "sum of all souls", and that this is also the same as the Dunyain's Absolute (riffing off the real-world Gnostic concepts of the Monad as I have in other threads, which is also sometimes called The Absolute), then perhaps Kellhus intends to become and/or wield the No-God as a method of condensing all souls? What if the whole "144,000 souls left on Earwa" is sort of like a critical mass, and that once that's reached the No-God becomes a sort of "black hole for souls", one which does not stop growing/consuming until it has drawn every soul into itself, thus becoming the Solitary God? Don't know, lot of hand-wavery going on there, but it came to me in thinking of the topic at-hand.
Then again it would bring into question whether or not the Consult totally understood what they were doing with the No-God in the first place, or if they were wielding something beyond their comprehension (like using a nuke to kill an ant-colony).
