Theoretical tie-in with Bioshock original SPOILERS

Booker DeWitt feels guilt over the Wounded Knee battle and gets baptized and splits into 2 universes: One where he remains Booker DeWitt and one where he reinvents himself as Zachary Comstock, as the baptism made him mad and he saw the angel Columbia speak to him. The one where he avoids baptism he remains Booker and has a daughter and builds up a lot of gambling debt and sells his daughter to pay off the debt...? So far so good, right?

He's already feeling guilt over Wounded Knee and now he's practically suicidal over selling his daughter, meanwhile his other reality (Comstock) goes on to meet the Lucedes(sp?) and build Columbia. Through the technology that creates Columbia, they discover that Comstock becomes sterile and cannot have children, so he essentially takes her from Booker who does not deserve her, since he would sell her to begin with. Therefore, no version of this man is any good for Elizabeth; save that Booker DeWitt has remorse and Comstock does not. The Lucedes(sp?) decide to help Booker the way they helped Comstock, however Comstock betrayed and killed them, so now they want some retribution and they use their technology to bring Booker into Comstock's reality to hunt him down and save the girl. Here we get to the gooey chewy center:

DeWitt hated war and what he had done in that war. Baptism was not a solution (is my belief) and this drove DeWitt mad and to justify his baptism as a solution he hallucinated an angel named Columbia telling him to build the city. His own alternate self hunted him down and killed him. Now Booker returns to the notion of baptism with Elizabeth after he sees that religion and prejudice are evil and still lead to war. The Elizabeths "baptize" him and THINK they kill him, but instead he is only in a coma (unconscious). He wakes up and now has a hatred of religion and government.....

He reinvents himself again and now changes his name to Andrew Ryan. With all the VIGORS in his system he ages slower and REbecomes another type like Comstock and creates a city to escape religion and government in RAPTURE. Besides, he already has the idea from see Rapture through Elizabeth's tear.

I like wearing camoflage; it helps me hide... coffee stains.
