I think it might be wise to cut out the religious discussion and the questions about the family life of posters. No need to risk getting people angry, or annoying the moderators.
So, far, I think this thread has been much calmer than some of the others.
Now for some questions for Anthony Valterra and any other representatives of the Valar Project:
1)How long have you thought of creating a book like the BoEF, and what lead to that decision?
2)You mentioned that different races and cultures could well have different attitudes towards sexual practices. Do you think that different sexual practices/family structures for different races are one of the strong points of the book. (In human societies, a large range of sexual practices and family structures have been noted by sociologists and other observers.)
3)Will future Valar Project releases try to show different ways to differentiate human and non-human cultures. (Political structures, economics, laws, rituals, et cetera.) I have long thought that having diverse societies in a campaign setting tends to add to the flavor and realism of a setting.
4)Does the Valar Project plan to produce a campaign setting?
5)Any planned releases beyone the BoEF for late 2003 or early 2004?
