Precursors vs Lovecraft

I excluded anything else from halo because they wouldn't even matter a tiny bit in this conflict. So we have the Precurors, which can come back from death, bend reality at will and outlived multiple universes. Then we have the Lovecraft myth, which includes gods that don't give a -blam!- about the universe at all, because they are not dependent on the universe but the universe is dependent on them. Using citations is encouraged as they are undeniable proof (and also I was not arsed enough to buy and read any of the books, due to shipping). Also coherent reasoning why one is more powerful would be great. Go!

  • The Precursors would not stand a chance. The fact that they were nearly genocided by the Forerunners (a purely physical entity, though highly advanced), is enough evidence that they would never be able to hold their own against a race of gods whose existences transcend understanding.

    • I called you an idiot on your lack of knowledge. I didn't make an argument without apt knowledge like you.

      • [quote]I called you an idiot on your lack of knowledge.[/quote] So someone who lacks knowledge is an idiot, then? I suppose that makes all children idiots because they can't function on our level of thought? Are all farmers idiots because they can't construct a particle acclerator? Are all physicists idiots because they can't service a combine harvester? [quote]I didn't make an argument without apt knowledge like you[/quote] Indeed, I suppose the middle ground is the safest for those whose minds suffer at great heights. Regardless of who is and isn't an idiot, where did it ever seem that I was uninformed? Could you cite the relevant passages? Furthermore, could you refute the points I made, and thereby enlighten us all with this "apt knowledge" you seem to be able to identify? This all seems to be a bit beside the point anyway. The OP and myself were discussing [b]fictional[/b] characters and their [b]likely[/b] performances in a [b]hypothetical[/b] situation. I guess I'm a little confused as to how you seem to think there is "apt knowledge" on this at all.
