    Prior In Flames!

    Hey you know when that prior got sent into the MW galaxy to try and convert people; you know that guy that was captured at the SGC? Ok you know in the end when he caught himself on fire? He was covered with flames without any weapsons.!

    Do you think that since he sacrificed himself that he was ascended? Because after all the ORII are taking the form of fire (fire of enlightment)?

      Why do you think he was sacrificing himself? Just curious; I don't know, maybe he was. I just never thought to interpret it that way.

      Since flame is a huge part of the Ori religion, perhaps this was a spectacular way for the Ori to recall their agent. Normally such a display would impress the natives, especially if the same prior returns later.

      A Cherokee elder sitting with his grandchildren told them,
      "In every life there is a terrible fight – a fight between two wolves.
      One is evil: he is fear, anger, envy, greed, arrogance, self-pity,
      resentment, and deceit. The other is good: joy, serenity, humility,
      confidence, generosity, truth, gentleness, and compassion."
      A child asked, "Grandfather, which wolf will win?"
      The elder looked the child in the eye. "The one you feed."

        Because the spoilers said the prior would burn himself to death

          .. but yah just because the spoilers said that he burnt himself to death doesn't mean he didn't die and Ascended to a higher plain of existance right? I mean in the previous episode when ...

          Spoiler:
          Vala was burnt at the stake for not being a non-believer, one of the priors was able to bring her back to life right?


          .. so one would think that just because you can burn yourself to death doesn't mean another prior cannot bring you back to life right?

            I thought it was their version of beaming technology.

              I was wincing when I saw this topic title, thinking someone was making a Richard Pryor joke. Thank heavens that wasn't what it turned out to be. Good taste wins out.

              I think he did sacrifice himself. Kind of a measure of what devotion those who serve the Ori have. It's not the same kind of "I worship these guys because I fear them" ambivalence of the Jaffa. These guys BELEIVE.

                    Plus if he was being recalled why would they waste time with the burning

                      They' aren't wasting time with the burning, it's the effect they are after. Now wouldn't you be surprised if you saw that Prior again in the next few episodes? Wouldn't you be thinkin' "hey didn't he set himself on fire?" Then that prior could be like -- Hallow the Orii for they have saved me from the fire! That could happen you know

                        It would be lame though if he came back- just like deascension is lame

                          If he had burned himself to death you would expect some remains, ashes or at least something.
                          Well not if he was ascended orii style (which would also be strange, perfect timing ascension) but it seems to me if you are an orii and want people to worship you, you don't just let everyone become a god like you.

                            Yes lack of ashes was strange
