I'm still trying to figure out why people are trying to impose Western morality on the villagers... What is all this about having them be married? It's a newly formed society and won't necessarily reflect our own laws. Let them be who they will be. I don't want to start a war here, and I know this post was a way back, but I just want to say something. There is a scripture where it is says that a man will "leave his father and his mother and he will stick to his wife and they will become one flesh". This was in regard to the first humans, Adam and Eve. You can't get much more newly formed than that! Okay, now I'll drop it, I just wanted to mention it. I don't think that everyone here believes in the bible so I don't think that LDW is basing their games on that.

I'm still trying to figure out why people are trying to impose Western morality on the villagers... What is all this about having them be married? It's a newly formed society and won't necessarily reflect our own laws. Let them be who they will be. Speaking for myself, I do not "impose Western morality" on the villagers. Morality is a valve shared with most of the world's cultures and religions. Many of us have a problem with brother/sister/ parnet/child matching and having children. For some of us, this is crossing major border lines. Again, a belief that crosses all belief and cultures. And yet, whenever two villagers of the same sex touch they run away (Their the same sex!) Sounds moral to me As a believer in the Torah, I apply its valves and morals to ALL areas of my life and that includes the games I play. Therefore, as the Guilding Hand of my villiagers, whether morality is written into the framework of future VV games or not, my villiagers will marry, will not have children unless there is a committment and if someone manages to slip pass my eagle eye, they are quickly wed off. Only if the tribe is in danger of dying off, I will permitt a brother and sister or cousins to wed. In short, as a 50 year old woman I say this; I won't tell anyone else how to govern their villages and don't tell me how to govern my.
