>What gods are there in SR universe? If totems are not gods, then what else?

Gods have the same influence on the Sixth World as they do on ours. That is,
for some people they are everything, for others they don't exist, most hang
somewhere in between, and nobody has been able to prove their existence or
non-existence.

No. In the Catholic church, the Order of St. Sylvester is there to
investigate whether unexplained things are magic (made by people) or
miracles (made by God). "Don't ask me how they tell the difference, though,"
as Archangel put it.

Read the intro of Harlequin's Back and compare one of the figures in it to ED...

Like I said, depends on your religion. Ask a Buddhist, they'll say yes. Ask
a Christian they'll tell you about heaven and hell. Ask X and they'll mention Y.

It must be real lonely there... :)
