Top Retellings of Classic Tales
Rick Ellrod
Rick Ellrod asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

Cordelia is apparently, as Emperor Ezar puts it near the end of Shards of Honor, "some sort of theist." I wonder how she got that way. We don't hear anything I can recall about religious traditions on Beta, which seems a modern-style secular society. Is there something in her background that gave rise to that frame of mind?

Lois McMaster Bujold Whatever philosophical club she was into on Beta probably bore more resemblance to Unitarian Universalists than anything else in our time/place. 40 years of Barrayar seem to have worn it down a good bit.
