You may get better discussion if you rephrase the
question coherently.

You mean you don't want to discuss that the noun-phrase "variations of
the violation basic truths" is extremely non-standard and bordering on
unintelligible?
But that's what this group is for!

I love Science Fiction, esp stories about time travel. I have no idea
what you are suggesting for a topic.

First I need to know what the "violation basic truths" are. I am always
sceptical of claims of "basic truths" with respect to anything; the idea
that there might be "basic truths" with regard to violation is at least
of some mild interest. |

Paradoxically one gets a discussion with every reply. Even from those
refusing to partake in the discussion. Whether one gets a "better
discussion" with a rephrasal (?) is another point for discussion. |
