Okay, I get it now. You’re the comic shop owner from The Simpsons, aren’t you?

…and why not, pray tell? I don’t see the science fiction community up in arms over series like The X Files, or Star Wars, for that matter. I mean, in Star Wars, you’re dealing with a supernatural “force” as a prevailing theme. And, despite Episode One’s attempt to give it some questionable scientific basis (though I think it was just in relating to one’s reception to and ability to use the force itself, rather than an attempt to explain it), it is, in essence a supernatural thing. The supernatural and science fiction are not mutually exclusive, and the point you make about never bringing it up in *any* series is, in my opinion, far too narrow. There are FAR too many beliefs and viewpoints out there, and to say that these things should never be dealt with is a far too limiting thing to say.

And what are the “wrong answers?” And why shouldn’t a series raise questions? How many are too many?
quote[quote][b]Let’s just hope that he’s dealt with in the first episode, leaving the rest open for new stories.[/b][/quote]
Again, who are the “us” implicit in “let’s?” To whom are you referring?
