I didn't find anything like this, so if it's been said before, I'm sorry.
Anyway, I recently began playing Origins. At the very beginning in the burning house, Alessa's "trick" with the fire just made me go completely WTF. I mean, it looked like a magic spell or something. However, it did get me thinking. Alessa was harassed by others for being a witch, right? It makes me wonder if Alessa is actually the Order's God. According to SH3, God is a woman, and Alessa obviously had some kind of mystic power, possibly holy power. If this is true, it makes me laugh that the Order ruined the coming of God by unknowingly trying to force her to give birth to what they believed to be God. Any thoughts?

The order chose Alessa to be the "Mother of God"...literally the carrier of God, because she was born with unique powers, it doesn't mean that she is God, although I personally believe that she is God (the Lord of Serpents and Reeds specifically) but that is just my theory.
As far as what are my thoughts on how the Order ruins the coming of God by forcing Alessa to birth God (or their idea of God), I think it just goes to show that the Order don't understand/underestimate the power of God.
