Heretics?

If the new False Teacher card is considered a heretic, wouldn't the older "Flase Teachers" versions be as well? (Same verse) They aren't listed that way in the REG. It could make a difference in a Booster Draft game.

As far as I know they are since the card is a reprint of the old card. Its like how the old Astrologers is also a magician even though the new one was printed in a different brigade.

And not to jack your thread or anything but is there a list of other characters that could be or are heretics out there? It would be fun to know all the cards I can use with Wolves in Sheep's Clothing.

The REG has a short list of heretics. There are certainly other candidates, but it depends on how strictly the definition is made.

A few possibilities off the top of my head:

Ananias
Sapphira
Demas (or is he a new type, "Apostate"?)
Diotrephes

From the REG:

Quote
Heretic
A heretic is a N.T. human evil character who publicly denied or misrepresented some teachings of the apostles and established doctrines of the Church, while still holding some teachings or doctrines to be true. Their object is to disturb the life of the church and those within it, shaking their confidence and spoiling the work of Christ. The gospels were written in great measure as a means to answer the words and teachings of the heretics in the early N.T. church.

Several Redemption® cards specifically reference characters that are heretics. The following Redemption® cards refer to heretics:

•      Creeping Deceiver (Di) and Wolves in Sheep's Clothing (Di)

The following Redemption® characters are considered heretics:

•      Creeping Deceiver (Di), False Teacher (Di), Philetus (Di), Simon the Magician (Ap), and The False Prophet (Pr)

Obviously Philetus from the E/F decks is the same guy, so he would also be a heretic. And False Teachers (the gray ones) have the same verse as False Teacher, so I have no idea why they would not be classified as heretics. Mike probably just forgot those during the update. I for sure would rule them to be heretics.

At this time, Diotrephes, Ananias, Sapphira, Demas, Phygellus, and Hermogenes are not classified as heretics.
