      angry, well I’m not sure whether my morality gland, my hedonism gland, or my good writing gland is more offended but whichever it is it’s making angry noises

          I tried to go on past this one but I stopped at the fourth. I couldn’t. You’re observantly meaning in your description of limited precision.

          Orion by Ben Nova was a bit more precise to what we see happening here.

            Haven’t read Orion. Arborification?

            Orson Scott Card is a curious cat. He seems quite intelligent and open-minded until we get to his homophobia. It would be irresponsible not to speculate…

            If you want to see philosophers duke it out, read Orson Scott Card’s Alvin Maker series alongside Robert Anton Wilson’s Illuminatus! trilogy.

              is cosmic trigger also okay? I don’t think I have it in me to read all of Illuminatus! but I have read about 1.5 books of cosmic trigger

              I don’t give a flying fuck about OSC’s philosophy of anything at all, in particular.

              Neanderthals in particular on Orion. AI, “The Devil” & their relationship with trees and what trees were like, then. Much better a perspective that OSC, certainly.
