Quote from: Callan S.
Yeah, well that's what, in my reading, sits the Dunyain right on the edge of contradiction - their world is horrifically without anything warm or comforting. Everything may as well be a gravestone, cold as if the sun had gone out. Do you love gravestones? Do they lighten up your life?

It's a hideous perspective.

how can you prove we think in terms of love?
Because we don't, on average, think wide enough. We stay within the soft inner boundries of the rose.

I didn't say we don't act in regard to eugenics. But I didn't say thinking overlaps acting. The circle of acting generally overlaps, by a considerable margin, the circle of our thinking.

Actually I wonder if I'm using rose as an analogy because if you overlap enough circles, they create a sort of rose pattern...?

Looking for some quotes for, Sci - though I should probably just look through Curethan's collection from Curated Sayings.

Found this must read thread: The Status of Woman and Some Real World Comparisons[/b]

Bakker's musings on the role of genders in the Three Seas bores me.

He has an outstanding story, and amazing world.  Sorcery, real gods, real God, Dunyain, first apocalypse, Mandate, wicked rape aliens, dying race of psychotic and powerful Not People, and evil orky weapon races.
But then he wants to make all males one dimensional who care only for stealing peaches and all women one dimensional as well.  Grow the fuck up and stop making constant perv analysis on the entire human race just because you watch porn nonstop.  my2cents
