Maybe I should have said "seems more honorable." You made a good point, killing isn't honorable in anyway. But I will say that killing someone who is trying to kill you first probably would not be quite as bad. But that's just my opinion- I've never been exactly an "activist." [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
Another thing you broght up that I believe factors in with why certain people like fantasy books is the fact that we do romanticize the past. Maybe the idea of knights in shining armor and archers dressed in all green and swordsmen defending noble ladies is appealing to people and they expect to find that in a fantasy book. Whether they do or not, the expctation may stay in the back of their mind, causing them to keep reading and keep loving fantasy.
