I see what you did there shas`o, i actually believe the tau will get eaten and if not that there is gonna be a civil war between tau and kroot(that is for another discussion).

Since the discussion has shifted focus towards The Emperor, here is some brainfood  for everyone

The Emperor is the embodiment of the perfect human in mind, body and every aspect that is good and righteous. He is also the most powerful psyker to ever have existed within the galaxy, remember that The emperor managed to defeat the most powerful of the C`tan, the void dragon. Now i ask you this, if the C`tan are gods, and The Emperor beat the most powerful one, that we know of, does that put him beyond the `gods`? No. A god is supposed to be an immortal, unkillable being ,The emperor was ageless in a physical way, however he was not unkillable ,as we all have seen, that is why The Emperor could never truly aspire to be a `god` in the literall sense of the word, he realised this AND he did not want to distance himself from humanity even further. By that statement not even the chaos gods are actually `gods` since they can be purged from the immaterium.

Let me ask you this. If there is a being who can shoot supernovas from his mind and has enough brain power to blow up a sun( presumably) do you really want someone like that to go on a rampage on the planet where you live? Imagine The Emperor `oh shit i dropped my donut` RAGE MODE and POOF goes the universe. The emperor controlled his emotions throught his incredible intelligence, infact the only time He was overcome with emotion was when he met Horus to kill him, and look what happened.

Very good point about John Grammaticus, i admit i forgot about him.
