[QUOTE="paulewog, post: 1222319, member: 1613"] /me wonders why she would click just so she could say she clicked on a thread started by some weirdo :eek: ;) /me says that George MacDonald was a 19th century (that means 1800's. ;)) Scottish author, that lived in the 19th century. He was born in the 19th century and he lived in Scotland! .... :P George MacDonald, Scottish author, I think he was technically presbyterian. He had a few messed up theological views :angel: but he was a Christian. He wrote a lot of Christian Fiction, or at least fiction that included a LOT of Christianity, blatantly... pastors, people expressing their faith in God, etc. He also wrote The Princess and the Goblin, of which you might've heard, hehe. He wrote lots of other "faerie tales" as he spelled it, and influenced C. S. Lewis and Tolkien massively. In fact, C. S. Lewis once stated that he never wrote a book without quoting, directly or indirectly, from MacDonald! =D Something to that effect. He wrote lots of "old style" fiction... stuff set in the 19th century, 16th century, etc. Not weird stuff, very down to earth stuff, though also in that Romantic kind of blindness... as in, not everyone in the middle ages being a knight in shining armor. If any. hehe. But not quite King Arthurish. hehe [/QUOTE]
