In our world, good and evil tend to be "represented" by certain things. Light and darkness, for example. What if goodness and evil were represented by...literally anything else and its opposite? Dogs and cats, for example? Fire and water? Squids and kids? What would you pick, and how would it make things different? I'm picturing all religious holy books describing their various gods as surrounded by puppies instead of beams of light. |

I don't know whether to say cats are the good guys because cats are better than dogs, or that cats are the bad guys because I cats seem inherently more diabolical. |

Cats are definitely more diabolical! (Though they are awesome) What if... evil was represented by hairiness, and good by un-hairiness. So all the villain characters would not only have evil mustaches, but if they were super-evil their whole face would just be a woolly mess. The devil has hair coming out of his ears. And the protagonist, to represent his pure justice, would be completely hairless. Like no eyebrows even. Hahaha |

I think another great contrast for this would be the most Mad Max-esque turbo diesel rat rod, coming up against a pure electric car of the future. |

...and the Lord visited upon the peoples. and his skin showed silky smooth, unknown to prickle or peach fuzz. and his presence singed the arm hair of the peoples and they exclaimed in joy "every day you shall Nair" he commanded "and not covet the beard of thy neighbor. blessed be those that have male pattern baldness. and let it be a sin to wear wigs or draw fake eyebrows." and thus the young Asian males rejoiced while the wild lumberjacks gnashed their teeth in repentance. |

I love that idea! we would be asking ourselves; WWBJD? What about the dichotomy of apples and oranges? Just picture some kind of crusade where they uproot apple trees and start planting oranges to claim holy land |

^ And right behind them, another group is uprooting each orange tree and replacing them with apple trees. And all the squirrels and birds are in the area are like, wtf can we just have trees please. |

But aren't there plenty of non-apple/orange trees that wouldn't be uprooted? |

All citrus are apostols of the Orange and all red fruit are Apple's followers, other trees are neutral |

I once organised a RP where there was a religion of people who though earth and solidity were good and the sky and the void were evil. |

Interesting, since the sky/heavens are typically associated with Good, while Hell is deep underground. It would indeed be interesting to flip it around. |
