Excellent choice Probably my favourite fantasy series ever, although definitely not for everyone. I just started reading Toll the Hounds.

If you're posting in the music forums make sure to be thoughtful and expressive, if you're posting in the lounge ask yourself "is this something that adds to the conversation?" It's important to remember that a lot of people use each thread. You're probably not as funny or clever as you think, I know I'm not.

I'm worried that reading some belligerent self-assured atheist would drive me to Christianity. I would recommend this very strongly as an interesting counterpoint:

Lev Shestov - Athens and Jerusalem - Part IV,1

I liked it. It seems like most people think Dawkins is too one-sided, but I agree with most, if not all, of what he had to say. I like the way it's written. The arguments against religion are effective and based in logic, and were easily understandable. I might PM you and discuss it sometime in the next few days. I'm way too busy with school for a few days at the moment, but Christmas break is starting this weekend.

I'm not going to lie, I found that to be very confusing. It was interesting though, I'll read it over at least a few more times. I don't quite get the point the author is trying to make.
