I forgot to add these: Niven's laws on writing (Courtesy of Wikipedia ): 1. Writers who write for other writers should write letters. 2. Never be embarrassed or ashamed about anything you choose to write. (Think of this before you send it to a market.) 3. Stories to end all stories on a given topic,... |

31 to 7; well, I guess if I ever get mired down in debates that make no sense to me all I have to do is look at this. The forum obviously leans ridiculously far left and the lack of any kind of reverence even for the office and what it stands for (regardless of whether you like the guy) astounds me... |

Some of these posts are making me wonder if people looked at the links I provided. I may just be being literal, but some of the replies seem awfully oblique. Some people got it, but others seem to be evading the issue I presented. What I said in my first post is this: Unrestricted abortion in the US... |

Orwell, I don't really support Bush, but I'm not willing to diss him so easily. After 9/11, the Patriot Act, as much as everyone hated it, did it's job. It was the administration's surveillance that stop further attacks. (Or perhaps it was not. We can't really know now, but I'm betting that we stopp... |

In fiction:
The characters run the story. Do not force a character to do something out of it's nature. Feel free to throw any curves in the circumstances, though.
That's really my only rule. |

I'm going to get myself murdered for this, but why does everyone hate him? He did what he though was right through his presidency, and we blame him for it? Just a few things: 9/11. You want a scary thought? Obama leading us through that. We'd all be dead in a week. Iraq war: it was a mistake, but hi... |

I have a problem with abortion, but I'm not going to force my beliefs on anyone else. This isn't about abortion. This is about selective abortion of autistics in the United States. Also, my original research on PP was flawed, but there's still some evidence of wanting eugenics. |

Jews do not exist, they are a conspiracy developed by the Illuminati to distract us from the corruption of the political structure by bankers trying to get control of our money through the federal reserve.

I'm not going to reply to everyone who posted, but I'm just going to say a couple things: FOCA is an awful act, no matter how you look at it. Any girl can get an abortion, any time, without needing to look at other options (adoption, et al.) or informing guardians. It will shut down most religious h... |
