Why wouldn't those be permanent inhabitants of the temple?
Ark of the Covenant, Lampstand of the Sanctuary, Tables of the Law; how is AP any different?

Read some of the books covering that time period. Some wicked kings would set up false idols/altars like the Asherah Pole or the Altar of Ahaz, but they were not something found on a normal basis in the temple, nor were they what God prescribed to be in the temple.

Asherah Pole was not supposed to be there and was taken out. If you do your homework, the other were supposed to be there and not supposed to be taken out. They were only taken after the Babs invaded and pwned up the temple.

Maybe they were meant to be there, but they weren't "permanent fixtures."

What's the difference between getting to play a useless card and not getting to play a card? I can only think of two things: Presented before the Lord and the Speed Bump LS. Sometimes it can be beneficial to hold useless cards in your hand, like against Simeon or other hand discarders.

GoyS is also useful post-FA if your opponent is using Confusion of Mind.

They were consistently placed in the temple during the time of the temple's use. The idols/altars, as well as articles of clothing (which were in and out due to the people wearing them being in and out) like Blue Tassels were not. That is the difference.

I agree with that, but you were saying that you like to be able to play the card. That is all.

Maybe they were meant to be there, but they weren't "permanent fixtures."

That's why "permanent" was in quotes.  I didn't have a better term at the time.

Personally I don't like either. Whichever one I have in my deck, my opponent pulls out the other before I get mine.. But I would go with Guardian.

I'm just saying that evil temple artifacts are still temple artifacts, whether or not they're supposed to be there.

Well, your just wrong. Beleive me, most of us have had your argument before, so we are just saying what we have been told. But you can't say the position of the current Redemption rules is in fallacy in any way. Rob and others just had to make a decision about it, and this is what they came up with. There is absolutely no repurcussions to it as far as the legitamacy of the game, so, we shouldn't get hung up on it.

I did not realize Temple Veil was reclassified as a Temple art. That's a rather important change that was made with no fanfare whatsoever... when did that change take place??

 Now all we need to do is get Blue Tassels and Priestly Crown back into the Temple somehow... :P

Quite a while ago. It was probably mid-2006, when Asherah Pole and others were removed from the list.

Thinking a little more about it, I might see a little more of what Ben was saying. Falling Away could potentially clog up your hand if he isn't rescuing anything, whereas Guardian is playable at any time and will not clog it up.

Look, I already know that I'm wrong, okay? Obviously I am; I'm saying that don't agree with the rules.

Wow, you seem to find away to miss the parts where I say "Most of us have had this argument before", which would imply "most of us" probably agree at least partially with you, seeing as we have argued about it.
