That’s good advice. One thing I used to do to help my students (I taught basic writing to undergrads at Cal state) edit their work is, when I saw something that wasn’t working, I’d ask the student what a particular sentence or paragraph was adding to the overall paper. They’d read it and decide it wasn’t doing anything, but instead of telling them to get rid of it, I’d tell them to save it for a paper where it would fit in. That makes it easier to edit my own babies, as well.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
