On the one hand, I sympathize with the Stormcloaks over the religious shit (the concordant banned Talos worship). I mean, the gods actually exist in this world so that’s kinda fucked up.
On the other, once I got to Windhelm, I kinda didn’t care about that anymore.
“Shit, maybe Talos is the reason these dudes are so racist… They only like him cuz he’s a human. And a Nord.”
And also Talos died and ascended to godhood a long time ago, so he isn’t around in person to cast holy smite upon any of the dipshits preaching war crimes in his name.
Unless you prefer the other version of events presented in the game, in which case Talos was not a nord but instead a breton
I choose this version mostly because it is funnier, but if the in-game book that discusses it (the Arcturian Heresy) was written by who it says it was written by then it’s probably the truth

Basically, Talos is the in-universe Jesus.
