Well, here the forums generally come into being at some point during Mac beta-testing, and in this case, close to the end of it.

No, but the fact that a significant percentage of the population of a country doesn't feel that something is wrong means that the thing shouldn't be made illegal.

I disagree with this on a fundamental level. Popular opinion is dangerous in governing a country. This leads to things like slavery's continued existence, a lack of justice for people in lynch mobs, etc.

Pro-choice vs. pro-abortion is merely semantics. Everyone knows that pro-choice people want abortions to be available, and that pro-abortion people are not in favor of abortions at any stage.

Abortion is not baby-killing. Abortion is not very different from a morning after pill, although much more serious. I believe that abortions in the third trimester should only be allowed in cases where the mother's life is endangered. Before that, if it will benefit the soon-to-be-mother, it is her prerogative.

Needle-Exchange Programs in General

That is not what the topic is, though. This is about users of IV drugs in urban areas who have an extremely high risk of AIDS infection through shared needles. A no-questions-asked needle exchange program could only be beneficial. It will slow the rate of AIDS spreading and is not condoning drug use, despite what some people may say.

In New Jersey, there is a law banning needle exchange programs, which is just idiotic.

Part of it is that they are at such a high level that killing clawbugs gives them no experience.

Another part of it is that a lot of their energy is put towards a) running a city and b) defending a city. You're like the straw that breaks the camel's back - you can go from the city and actually attack the enemy.

Being religious and being scientific are not mutually exclusive. I would consider myself both religious and scientific, and I believe in evolution, and so do most of the religious people I know.

Resurrections are souls called back into their bodily form. Intelligent undead are trapped souls, while unintelligent undead are magically animated by a wizard/necromancer/etc.

There are also fauns, from Greek/Roman mythology. They had goat hooves and played the pan flute and were like Dionysus and Bacchus in humanoid form.

Demons exist in some sort of Nether region, from which they can be summoned. More powerful demons sometimes escape and wreak havoc on the human realm.

With regards to religion, I would imagine that they have the same views with regard to Heaven and Hell that most people today do. There is no real worldly religion, since it's obvious that a god will work through whoever decides to call him (priest spells). The Anama and Church of Divine Lucre are the most widespread, at least on Valorim.

I loved the Foundation series, personally.

The best fantasy series IMO is the completed trilogy by Elizabeth Haydon, called Rhapsody or something like that.

If you read the existing ten books of the series all in a row together, it doesn't start to slow until the eighth book, and only the tenth is really abysmal.
