The now reading thread ...

[Armon Amarth]

I do not read

 

[Thrymfal]

then you are a loser.

 

[Locke the Wannabe Viking]

I'm reading "Romulus the Great" by the swiss author Friedrich Dürrenmatt. Quite a good book!

 

[Armon Amarth]

im not a loser. i only dont read books. i often read lyrics and i read enough in this forum.

 

[Belgar]

I am sure the forums are a fountain of knowledge, a source for good stories, good grammar, good drama .... i mean ... really.

 

[L33ch]

Clearly, internet forums are the only source for education you need

..though I suppose this does hold true for education on Vikings and Norse mythology, just ask Tyra =P

I'm not trying to be mean, but come on man, enrich your life. Books engage the mind and, more importantly, the imagination in ways television and movies could never hope to.

 

[AMERICAN NORSEMAN]

I've been reading "The Antichrist by Nietzsche"

I recently picked up "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" by Nietzsche. Haven't read it yet as I'm currently in the middle of Robert Heinlen's "Stranger in a Strange Land". I started reading his stuff over the summer and he quickly became one of my favorite authors.

Brutal.
Now read my previous posts in this thread and try to figure out how serious I was when I posted that.

 

[Jeremiah]

Anyone read or heard of any good religious style books?

 

[Thrymfal]

there's a great book about god dying, and falling in to the sea, and the catholic church claiming his gargantuan corpse, and towing it to the north pole with aircraft carriers to keep it from decaying. It's called Towing Jehova.

Oh, well a big ass imagination is all i got (i mean im stupid, far too tall for most girls ) so i get pissed if someone is talking bad about it

 

[naboo]

Right now I'm reading Moby Dick and A Clash of Kings.

 

[Tyra]

Unfortunately, I have to read too much stuff for school for my eyes to handle reading much of the fiction stuff. Not that I don't like the books for school, but a change is nice sometimes. In that spirit, I read Bernard Cornwell's The Last Kingdom. I think most of you would like that book a lot. It's part one of a three book series. I read it because I've enjoyed Cornwell's previous series so much, but it didn't hurt any that the story is about Alfred the Great and his descendants as seen "through the eyes of Uhtred, an English boy born into the aristocracy of ninth-century Northumbria, captured by the Danes and taught the Viking ways".

Tao Te Ching.

 

[Thrymfal]

I love the Tao

 

[Tyra]

The Way of the Warrior is one of those kind of Tao books, too, but it's not really "religious". The Tao of Winnie the Pooh is more Tao, really...

It'd help if you said what religion, I guess...
