@brandon-miller. Thanks for setting up this thread.

This had been something that I’ve been thinking about for the past few weeks, maybe months.

You see, I’m one of those “Conservative Christians” who do not read nor write fantasy. And yes, I am skeptical of Christians who write Fantasy. Sci-fic is just over the raised-eyebrow-line for me, as are similar genres. And when I say do not read and write, I mean DO NOT read or write. Neither do I read Sci-fic or Futuristic/Dystopians. (Sorry peeps.. I’m thinking most of you read and write in those genres) I have friends who do write in those genres, but I personally do not feel comfortable with books that are outside the scope of actual, factual reality, so to speak. I tend to stick to 100% human characters in both the books I read and the books I write.

Consider me your challenger when you ask the question on the importance of fantasy.  But just a side note.. I probably would not debate much on this subject, because I’m not too familiar with the genre. And I might make not-too-fair comments and assumptions mainly because of my personal beliefs and my lack of knowledge/experience in this area.

I am open to your–and anyone else’s–thoughts on this, and will keep visiting this thread.
