I was born and raised Roman Catholic and when I was old enough to learn fantasy from reality, I gave it up. I absorb more Christian views watching five minutes of Monty Python's "Life of Brian" than... |

All that AND a bag of nuts! I firmly believe that he may have used some stray thoughts from his life's experiences, coupled with mythos and lore, added a good bit of imagination, and he's written a... |
