By Christian fiction, are you referring to the genre or anything written where Christian themes are portrayed positively. If the former, I agree with you, if the latter, you are cutting out an awful lot of great novels. Brideshead Revisited, the Power and the Glory, The Moviegoer, Les Miserables, etc.

So lawful authorities always equals good guy?

Anything where the heroine gets pregnant by accident, set after the 1960s. Contraception, ladies. Any woman who doesn't respect herself enough to take precautions gets no respect from me.

What if the precautions fail? It does happen... more often than most people realize I expect.
