Howdy joebuck. Are you thinking of Dan Simmons? Simmons is another Sci-fi writer that sometimes puts out conservative essays and short stories. He’s the cat who wrote the famous time-travel islamic horror-show story that ends in a three word phrase that isn’t revealed to the reader.

Yep, that's what I was referring to. I thought for sure that story was by Orson Card. There ought to be a law against writing a story that good and then leaving the end hanging like that. I need some closure here!
