I guess what I’m saying is that these types of forays outside of the default,
as you put it, lead to, in my mind, to dark places. I know that you
qualified your statement by restricting your comments to the realm of
fiction, but I believe the ideas here transcend fiction and reality. And
these ideas-- are they influencing culture, or are they reflecting culture?
Both, probably, but the question is, in which order? When one starts to look
for justice where it doesn’t belong, I believe outcomes like suicide
bombers murdering innocent women and children start making sense.

Hey , what about the innocent men and the guilty women and children? (I had a
strange cultural default twinge there as I typed ‘children’)
