Sentience DOES make a difference. You dont frown on your cat for hunting mice, but on your dog for doing it with children.

> Also, it seems a little unlikely that a third ship would arrive given that the arrival of even one alien ship was considered so surprising in the first installment.
Don't you think there might be a good reason for that which we will learn next time? My guess would be so. that has way higher standards like 'killing the unfertilized egg is murder'.

> Martin, the Baby-eaters don't remind me of the Moties. I think it's Eli's use of the Alderson Drive that reminded you of The Mote in God's Eye. @Peter
