(urth) Hard SF

[Lee Berman]

A quick addendum to the last post:

It may be that Wolfe's philosophy that attachment to the person of the Monarch is 
simultaneously the highest and lowest basis for governance is related to the 
science vs. magic understanding of the world.

Perhaps Wolfe is saying the primitive who believes in magic sky gods who express their will
through storms and earthquakes and other global effect are actually tapping into something 
true- a divine will that science is not privy to understanding.
