Awesome, let's have a united Catholic Europe under the banner of Fr... oh shit I'm Turkey.
Edit: Advance warning, over the weekend I will be catching up on a bit of Uni stuff and won't be around IRC much. I won't be avoiding it altogether, but don't count on me being there. If you want to be sure-er-ish, send a pm and hope Antho doesn't eat it.

God forbid... (2014-11-28 01:00:03) :
[i]God forbid that/it happens.
God forbid he goes to Russia / he does go to Russia.
God forbid it starts raining / it rains.[/i]
'God forbid [noun]' sounds fine enough. 'that' is alright, but 'should' is awfully stiff/formal.

The best part: subordinate clauses are surrounded by parenthesis particles, and those particles are [b]l[/b] and [b]r[/b].

Quite Tolkienesque indeed, although that style is not directly inspired by the original maps in [i]The Lord Of The Rings[/i] but by these ones (which in the image below make up a single map; the original is [url=http://fanmodules.free.fr/Our%20Resources/Maps/MERP%20-%20Map%20-%20Northwestern%20Middle-Earth%20map%20set_All%20in%20One_Carte%20TOTALE%208000x5400.jpg]here[/url] <- caution, 8000 x 5389 px).

God forbid... :
God forbid (that) [noun] [verb].
Is the verb in the indicative or subjunctive? Or would you use an auxiliary? Is "that" necessary or can it be elided?
In my case, I'd usually use the auxiliary "should":
[i]God forbid that that should ever happen.[/i]
[i]God forbid he should go to Russia.[/i]
[i]God forbid it should start raining.[/i]
Yes, it's a dated phrase anyway, but I'm curious if you have a grammatical preference.
