Greetings everyone,

Does anybody actually use the etext versions of Sci Phi Journal, or does everybody just listen to the audio ? I’m really interested to know as I can save myself some time if I don’t produce them, but will continue to do so if people use them.

Also, are there any formats that people would like that I don’t currently provide ? Within reason i’m sure it is possible to accomodate people. So please let me know.

Just post a comment on this post if you like or email me editor@sciphijournal.com

Questions for Reflection

1. Is the idea of fate relevant to the modern world ?
2. Oracles has passed into History, but Fortune Teller, Psychics and others are still around. What is this fascination we have with knowing the future ?
3. If you know the future can you avoid your fate ?

As this is the first installment of a story for the Journal i’m trying out a questions for reflection section. Some food for though, if you like them please let me know. If you don’t, also, please let me know. And if you’d like to discuss them, feel free to post in the comments section. I am hoping to get some forum software that integrates into Wordpress to make it easier.

Questions for Reflection

1. Is it possible to sin without doing harm to others?
2. How far would you go for true love?
3. Does human suffering serve a purpose, or is God arbitrary and cruel?
4. Many religions claim a monopoly on truth. How are we to judge between them?
5. Are there dentists in heaven?
