  • 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.

Comics are books! I’ve HATED Disney Star Wars, but gave in to nostalgia & picked up a SW Disney comic. It was surprisingly decent. It was issues 1 – 6 of the SW run Skywalker Strikes. Darth Vader was an unstoppable juggernaut & the opening battle reminded me a lot of Empire At War computer game I used to love. Also enjoyed the battle w/ Boba Fett in the 2nd half.
In Legends, Vader found out about Luke a different way, so in my head canon, the events of this comic happen, just a lot of the dialogue doesn't.

The library had volume 2 checked out, so I picked up Wraith Squadron. Whatever Disney has done, whatever they will do, will not live up to the Legends old EU. The X-Wing books are amazing, BTW, tho some of the action can be hard to follow.

Read the first two and The Hobbit years ago. Never read the 3rd.

I would suggest you could try reading it, but then you'd be up to twenty. :waaah:

Just received several Chicken Soup for the Soul books, and will be reading them :D
Enjoy! I like those books and have read some of them. They are very inspiring.

Recently finished Revealing Revelation by Amir Tsarfati and followed it up with another of his books, The Day Approaching: An Israeli's Message of Warning and Hope for the Last Days. Both are very much worth reading, though I found a couple comments in the latter book somewhat over the top.

Currently trying to force myself to finish Faithfully Different by Natasha Crain. It's an interesting read but makes my brain swirl because the wording seems much more technical than it needs to be. I think I have about 30 pages to go.

Started reading The Alice Network by Kate Quinn two days ago. The book is fantastic. It's a historical novel, which is not my fav genre, but I'm so into reading.
I sincerely recommend reading it ( it's about the challenges of being a female spy during World War I, role of the women, and other issues)
