Anything controversial is bound for conflict: religion, politics, abortion, women’s rights..,@popmol

@Wiseacre some things are controversial for no reason!

I suppose you could get interesting stories without human conflict : surviving storms or whatever.

@alan20 mmh isn't that technically a conflict between nature or death and humans?

@popmol Can't disagree with that. Let's all write gripping stories about wearing carpet slippers; as long as they grip.

@alan20 haha yeah its hard isn't it. in every story theres conflict and the fay the conflict is solved the sides and whatever else is involved makes the story bad.

i think this is the concepts that makes it unable for a comedian to get big on knock knock jokes for example. i mean they can be funny. but its short and nothing to build upon :p

Conflict is an essential part of the hero’s tale.
See the Iliad, the Bible, the epic of Gilgamesh, etc..
