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 pointed it out on the episode thread. And the physicist's name is interesting. Faraday. There was a real physicist named Faraday, Michael Faraday. His field was electromagnetism. hehehehe

My post from the other thread:
The only thing I can think of is "The Wood Between the Worlds" from The Magician's Nephew. I got this from Wikipedia: "The wood is described as having a warm temperature and containing a large number of leafy trees, with canopy foliage so thick that the sky (assuming there is one) cannot be seen from the ground. Despite the thick foliage, a strong light does penetrate to the woodland floor, clearly illuminating objects. The salient feature of the wood, other than the trees, is the presence of many pools of water. Initially, the pools appear to be just shallow puddles. However, when someone jumps into one of the pools while wearing another magic ring, the pool of water transports the wearer to a different world. When a world is destroyed, i.e. all life is removed, as Charn is in The Magician's Nephew, the pool dries up. In Paul F. Ford's Pocket Companion to Narnia, a diagram shows the Wood Between the Worlds to be housed in Aslan's Country, sitting on top of all the worlds." (bolding mine)
I wish I had my copy with me to see how Lewis actually described The Wood. The bolded statement reminded of Faraday's comment about the light not reflecting right on the island.
That same Wiki article suggests that Lewis' idea came from a book called The Wood Beyond the World by William Morris. Read it for yourself.
I also remember a Faraday from Physics class. He was a physicist in the field of ....
