FAB is purely physical. It is not dual natured. Okay, so it's alive. It's
still purely physical.

See above. the FAB is still purely physical. It is only alive, not
dual-natured.. It is not possible for the mage to affect it, either. The
mage can't hit it, zap it, burn it, or eat it. The mage can swear at it,
but that won't do much good.

No I do not. Listen to what I've been saying: If it's possible for the
astral being to be deflected, it will be. That includes going backwards,
if that's what it takes. If it can NOT be deflected, then the PHYSICAL
being will pass through the ASTRAL being (not the other way around). As
the astral being could not be deflected, the physical object will
probably end up inside the astral being (unless you've got something like
a small object passing through the astral being, and then through a
hole). At no point in time has the PHYSICAL object been affected. The
astral object has undergone metathesis, which has unexplained effects,
but which is implied as being sheer hell.
There, that is my position, and it does NOT invalidate the rule you've
been quoting.
And it's still not possible for an astral being to hold up a living
(non-astral) being, anyway, which is what you're saying. So still, we
have a case of a rule being broken. Pick the one you want.
I'm throughly sick of this... I haven't actually said anything new for
the last half dozen posts I've made, but you still keep misinterpreting
it.
