Honestly, I think the notion that Saradomin was "defending" himself from the Naragi, who attacked first, is ludicrous. They were an agrarian society and he is a proven ill-tempered individual (as seen in Death of Chivalry, he
attacks
you when you simply refuse to hand over the Wand, which chose you, not him).
Let's be honest: what is more likely? Saradomin fired the first shot, almost certainly. I mean, he fired the first shot against the World Guardian in the Death of Chivalry a few months ago, for passively resisting his demands. It is obvious that a much younger, more hotheaded Saradomin would have done the same when confronted with flippant dismissal of his godly claims by "puny farmers."
Attacking your detractors, original poster, does not bolster your arguments. Accept the facts that Saradomin is a tyrant. Fascism goes hand-in-hand with absolute order. Every god has a fatal flaw. Otherwise our choice of god would be meaningless. We need a flaw to look past and accept. You, however, are not accepting Saradomin, you are preaching your idealized version of Saradomin.
Now, you can reply to this with some random point about some other god, but know that in doing so you are convincing nobody, not even yourself. Accept Saradomin's flaws. It's the only way anybody would ever side with him now.
