>Before this grows ... what are the list policies on political and religious discussions? Are there any guidelines? Some lists I know ban them completely, other tolerate them up to a certain point, and others have no specific policies... >Personally I like the lists that ban them the best. I'm here to talk about books, and I don't need to know your political or religious beliefs to be able to talk to you about the books I enjoy. Rarely do those types of discussions lead to anything but more division, ill-will, and an overall increase in "negative vibes"... >>So Steve, how does it feel that your books are being pushed by the company that is almost universally accepted as the all-time most evil example of capitalism at its worst? Sorry Mark. I only asked because of the political ideas Steve brings up in the Vladiad (esp. Teckla and Pheonix). I just find it ironic that you'd look for his books in Wal-Mart.
