I took like ten quizes and they all said my daemon would be a wolf. That would be awesome to always have a wolf with me as my best friend....

That scene was awesome! In the book, there's an additional scene where he opens up dead bear's chest and eats his heart before saying the line. "Bears, who is your king?"

When a human and their daemon are of the same gender, it means that they are a sort of special individual or (if i recall correctly) homosexual. It's rare that they are same-gendered though.

Not gonna lie- alot of the aspects of the Magisterium is similar to the Catholic Church. "Intercision", in which your daemon is cut off you, has similarities to castration to make a man a "castrati" Another thing is in the bible, when many post-Egypt Jews worshiped a gold cow, God ordered them "cut off" from the rest so as "not to infect all of them with sin" or something to that degree. As you can see, there are MANY allusions to the Judeo-Christian religion.

Oh yeah I know that there is a lot of corruption in the Catholic Church similar to the corrupt forces in this book but I'm just not a fan of people who comment saying "Fuck the catholic church" and all that! Not everyone involved with it is corrupt!

Actually, demon and daemon are defined as two different things. (Though some translations say they are the same or similar)

According to the book, yes, they can, but while it is uncommon for a daemon to speak to a human other than their own, it's not taboo. Now TOUCHING someone else's daemon.... that has a similar connotation to sexual touch (which is fine if the people are lovers, but not in any other instance is it ok.)
