It's not worth a thread so I'm just gonna grab a beer for the road and tell you all bye. I'm heading out. I'm thankful for what CF has been because it helped me find Orthodoxy but it's no longer CF and that is starting to show. Please forgive me if anything I've ever written has offended...

Nevermind.

So, 1/3 of the "magic" in Harry Potter is based on actual British folklore?

Nevermind.

No can do. I'd just make a very bad showing for Orthodoxy and end up with a lot of hard feelings in my heart.

Probably WoW if she plays a 'lock.

I'm not a regular Theology poster so I can't. I would give him an Aye, though! Anyone willing to handle the sewer snake with the kind of backup there must be in there deserves respect.

You misunderstood what I was saying. Not surprising considering how unclear I often am. This is what I was trying to say in my typically unclear way. It just seems a bit off to flatly condemn one questionable activity and condone another. That's all I was trying to say.

I remember reading LotR in 9th grade and some D&D geeks looked at the cover with Gandalf holding Glamdring and they scoffed and said, "That book is stupid, wizards can't use swords!" I just laughed. :D

No, we just have some benches along the wall.

Ah, I think I see the source of the problem here. You have probably been exposed to some of the darker game settings that use the D&D rules to play. I've only played in the Forgotten Realms and I don't think I've ever seen anyone named "the god of ---" or anything that praises openly demonic...

I find it kind of fascinating in a gory, morbid, train-wreck sort of way.

Our digital camera broke so I can't post any updated pics but I agree that the time sure does get away from you. James was 10 months old yesterday and the big ONE is screaming up on us fast.

What I don't understand is how you can so roundly condemn Harry Potter, D&D and even have doubts about Starwars yet think it perfectly fine to listen to AC/DC, Great White, Def Lepperd and any other number of classic rock bands that have dark themes and very dark, suggestive music.
