Ps. I have problem which English so trying to not use big word which are hard to remember is something I do unless someone else write the words first and use of Google

The word is spelled "religion", and the descriptive version of the word is "religious". If someone adheres to a religion, they are religious. It doesn't have to be capitalized. Every other word you used correctly. Your English is quite good for a non-native speaker. Frankly, better than some natives I've seen.

As for your point, I can't speak for other religions, but if the Christians in GATE are anything like the ones in real life, they probably would like the opportunity to send missionaries to the Special Region. They wouldn't acknowledge the SR gods as such, of course, but whatever the thought on the SR gods themselves, they would acknowledge the existence of their powers. It isn't just God who performs "miracles" in the Bible, after all.

Any talk of missionaries sent through the Gate is silly. The Gate Gods are very busy and kept their presence felt. There is a higher chance of the Earth missionaries being converted by Gate gods than the other way around.

You can deny them all you want; but that isn't going to make the GATE gods disappear. That's what happens when faith isn't needed for a god to exist.

Spoiler for Tyuule:

No she didn't. She has later the Choice between a Life with Furuta or took Revenge against Zorzal. She choose Revenge and died by Zorzals Hands but kills him too. I read in the Web-Novel she has a happy End.

Didn't know there was a difference between webnovel and LN for Tyuule.
Fingers crossed they'll go for the webnovel in the anime.

The webnovel has long since been taken down and there is no legal way to read it. It is basically made non-canon by the author so don't get your hopes up.

Fate of quite a few characters are changed in the published edition from the web version.
Some went from happy to tragic, some went from tragic to happy, one heroine even got demoted to a side character.

Indeed, and I imagine there must be a lot less fear of dying.
When you are absolutely guaranteed of an afterlife, rather than vague wishful thinking and grasping straws, death doesn't seem nearly as terrible a fate.

It would be more of a career choice really. Die normally and be with Hardy, or die in battle and be with Emroy.

Which heroine, if I can ask? And how so?

Spoiler:

Kuri was a heroine who kinda falls for Itami in the web, and Pina was an antagonist who schemed for death of Lelei in the end.
But in the published version Pina was made more sympathetic and falls for Itami, while Kuri is demoted to a side-character who ends up with no one.

Spoiler:

Oh, Kuribayashi. I totally forgot about that one. I think that change was for the better.
Pina, an antagonist in the end? Dear goodness, I prefer her much more as she is now.

I just want to add one more thing before I stop discussing the topic of Earth missionaries going to the GATE world; as was shown last season, humans who die in the Gate world have their souls taken by the GATE gods.

This is a demonstrable process. Thus irrefutable.

Any Earth missionaries who dare to cross the Gate to preach, would have to really ask themselves... Do they truly believe in their own god? Do they really believe their soul wouldn't be taken on their deaths?

Because Gate gods WILL take their souls if they die in the other side. This isn't in dispute. If they believe in souls, they would need to take a cold hard look at themselves and think if what they are about to do, makes any sense.

It was at manga... if i remember it right it was after they arrived at one of the village... i forgot the village name but it was a village looked like a desert area and the blow the sand everywhere.... the wind is carrying epidemic disease which only affect female only... And Lelei caught the disease after she come down from the jeep which the wind blow strongly.... not long after that lelei collapsed which panicked itami's company... Itami trying to give Lelei a medicine to lower her fever but she throw up the mesicine after it enter her mouth... The desperate Itami steeled himself and put the medicine on his mouth and kissed Lelei to force her drink the medicine, which shocked Rory, Tuka and Yao... then they blushed watching the scene...

It's actually the real reason for opening the gate.

Spoiler:

Hardy opens the gate to introduce fresh alien souls into their collection.

That's how majority of creators in that world came to be, they're from other worlds too.

Sort of like introducing new (spiritual) genes into the gene pool.

Spoiler:

Deities from other worlds, huh? Hmm... That's truly interesting

Spoiler for :

I think Hardy is pretty happy about the JSDF, that they send them so many Souls to her . Or are they going to Emroy? Not sure .

[RDNexus]

I may have asked this already, but... Are there any pics of the GATE Deities?

We are not sure if they are remotely human or even 3 dimensional.

Spoiler for what we know about gods:

The only time we ever physical see a deity, is when she possessed a human and speak through the host. The issue is that the majority of the time, doing that kills the host body. So gods rarely ever does this and choose to speak through the Apostles instead. It is also acknowledged that gods have very alien desires, very different from humans. And that Rory knows she would lose her remaining humanity when her 1000 years are up.

Hardy wanting to lesbian-marry Rory is a strange case, as we are not sure how it is suppose to work metaphysically and no one in-story understands either.

[DragonXX]

I find that the Gods did this all just to get new soul, lead me wanting to know where do Soul come from in GATE which make me want to know if there a God for Earth and if this could make them in rage by other Gods stealing soul if it get to a point.

I think Season 2 of the GATE novel series should have Earth playing a bigger role because the problem which the Empire was mostly solve in season 1 of the GATE novel series

Sorry, "creatures" is what I meant to type. Humans, dragons, beastmen, etc
We don't know if the original gods came from other worlds or native to this universe.

Most of the death caused by JSDF should go to Emroy, as they died in combat.
