Simply need to get our grubby little hands on a FTL machine and we're set.

On a slightly less off-topic note: T. E. Lawrence is not really a fictional character, but he is fascinating.

I know who it is. I still need to finish Blood of the Fold, though. Good choice!

Jesus Christ Our Lord - I love the bit where he rides into Jerusalem on a donkey, thus fulfilling the prophesy of the coming of the messiah. An excellent multidimensional character who appeals to all walks of life!

I'm not touching that one, Peter--unless . . . say . . . you aren't the rock he built his church on, are you?

Lacedaemonian · 24th May 2004, 12:38 AM

The real 'Peter' was apparently a sexest, ultra conservative of sorts. It is this version that I model myself on.

No I was just having some fun.

Peter was also said to be Jesus' bodyguard. The 'rock' seems like macho flattery...

I love the bible stories....lol

Michael · 24th May 2004, 12:54 AM

At risk of being too serious: I have a deep appreciation for Bible stories myself.

Lacedaemonian · 24th May 2004, 12:57 AM

Hey, I went to Sunday school out of choice, my mother did not really want me to go, but respected my wishes. The bible stories are told best when in childish form. Great stories! I think that I had too much freedom as a child - hence my questionable attitude. Food for thought Pete.

Of course. I like it in the children's form and the traditional. In fact, I like comparing different translations. Although, I have to admit, I really like the Gospel of John in KJV. In think it's beautifully composed.

My favourite oddball, childrens fiction character is: Catweazle.

Michael · 24th May 2004, 03:25 AM

Don't know Catweazle. What's that?

polymorphikos · 24th May 2004, 06:20 AM

An inept sorcerer accidentally transported to modern times, if I'm not incorrect.

Hypes · 24th May 2004, 01:13 PM

Imagine Rincewind in the year 2004.

Actually.

Let's not.

In the Colour of Magic he .... Oh, never mind.
