I don't believe in horrific aliens from outer space who feast on the fear-rush of dying children, but that didn't keep me from enjoying It for what it was, a goddamned good read.
IT was a good read, but there is a bit of knowledge required in writing believable characters. As an example if I wrote an American Christian character who DIDN'T think country was important, a lot of American Christians would find that hard to accept as a believable Christian. You're right in that a story doesn't have to be logical necessarily in it's realism, after all there's no Hockey Mask wearing supernatural zombie running around taking axes to the face either, but the characters surrounding that ARE important or the story falls flat.

So, that's not even half of American christians. I mean, not every republican is a hardcore republican and then there are others as well.
I really hope you do your homework before you pick up your pen.
Why do you think I'm here?
