I understand that. My main attempt with my words is to steer the conversation away from the confrontational path it was following earlier. The worst thing we can do at this moment is argue among ourselves, no matter the topic.

The idea of an artificial soul created through alchemical means, setting aside theological concerns, is a fascinating one. The scientific implications and possibilities are astronomical.

Viewed either as simply the advancement of alchemical studies or considering the possible advancements in the field of medicine that could be possible from studying these practices, there is potentially much to be learned from these homunculi and their creator.

Merely creating a golem is considered to be one of the highest levels of alchemical achievements currently possible. To be able to create life, be it seen as artificial or otherwise, is nothing short of miraculous. If I may be so bold, I should suggest shelving theological arguments in favor of considering the scientific and medical advancements to be made from such a field of study.

Master Caldor, I do hope you are able to find your friends, as no man is so wealthy as to be able to afford losing a friend. I do also hope that a peaceful solution may be found with the "Father" of these Homunculi, as I believe the advancements to be potentially had are vast.

In science and progress,

The Theological problem, as you put it, is not religious as much as ethical. This man you want a peaceful solution with, is fully and wholly capable of killing as many people as his research requires without remorse.

He is a monster in a very literal sense. We don't make peace with monsters. More to the point, we should not. For in allowing the thought that his accomplishments may be worthwhile, we accept the blood that he has on his hands, on our own.

This is not to say we persecute the homunucli, they are blameless for their creation. They are responsible for the decisions they make since, however.

As far as Brazen is concerned...

The "Father" is a unethical madman who needs, as Donny would put it, such a kickin' he will never ever forget. As I recall, there is a certain Psion who also wants a stern word or three with him...

I will reserve discussion on the homunculi for in person talks.
