  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I pray that Darth Vader's actor, James Earl Jones is in a better place, flying his spacecraft to the stars up in Heaven.

He is Catholic also:

I heard he grew up with a stutter. Amazing he eventually became known as someone with an amazing and commanding voice. RIP.

Yes, I was surprised to read he had that challenge to overcome.

He recorded the entire Bible as an audio book, if want to hear it in his voice.
That’s fascinating.

I cannot imagine reading the entirety of 1 and 2 Chronicles saying who begot who ad nauseam.

No way, that sounds so cool. Darth Vader narrating the Bible sounds totally lit, as Gen Z folks say. Which version of the Bible is it?

He was Catholic so I wonder if he narrated the 7 additional books Protestants don’t have in their canon.

Hopefully, he has.

Nope, apparently not. He read the KJV. That is a slight downer, man. I like the KJV for the poetry, and the NKJV, but those Bibles do not have the Catholic canon. But hey, every Bible version as long as it is not paraphrase is okay, but the NRSV-CE or ESV-CE are the best.

Very interesting, indeed.

Thanks for your research.
You are welcome. Just trying to help my fellow Christians and non-Christian nerds out, and honor the life of Darth Vader. To be honest, I do not remember that Jones' voiced Darth Vader, as I have watched the Star Wars trilogy a long time ago in the early or mid 2010s (2012 or so).

Same here. Haven’t seen the movies in years.

I feel ancient indeed ;)
Same here sometimes, but remember, that means each year, we get closer to meeting God and His Son, just as James Earl Jones has. Anyways, have a blessed night, brother.
