Hi peoples,
I'm new here and the only person I have communicated w/ is InklingElf (who I still think rocks). I am a huge fan of Tolkein and Lewis. And as for what ElanorGamgee said, I couldn't have said it better myself. God truly put those two men on this Earth to touch us, inspire us, and to help us grow closer to Him. I don't know about ya'll (I'm from G.A., U.S. "Ya'll" is a big part of our vocab. lol) but I find it hard sometimes not to make LOTR and idol. I love it so much that sometimes I will pick up the books more than I do the Bible. The Bible is of course more important to me b/c I am an *ahem**ahem* born again Christian and it is God's love letter to us and lets us know bout Him. Well... I've lost my point in writing this... so thats all I suppose. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
