The esteemable John C. Wright, is founding a new literary movement for science fiction. One that should be enjoined by any serious sci-fi author: The New Space Princess Movement. The guiding principles of this movement are:
The literary movement will follow two basic principles: first, science fiction stories should have space-princesses in them who are absurdly good looking. Second, the space princesses must be half-clad (if you are a pessimist. The optimist sees the space princess as half-naked). Third, dinosaurs are also way cool, as are ninjas. Dinosaur ninjas are best of all.
Now, how can a book go wrong with space princesses and dinosaur ninjas? To read more on this manifesto, you can find the genesis here. Next the movement gains ground. Finally, the movement receives criticism for not including the logical step of space pirates. (Note: obligatory warning regarding bare midriffs)

As in, theology from a 5 year old.
The other night my middle, precocious boy launched into this without any solicitation:
Satan was an angel but he decided he wanted to be God and turned bad. He took the angels with him, not all of them but lots. Satan and the angels attacked God, but He whooped them on the bum!”
And yes, he said “bum”. From the mouths of infants… 😀
