@Pev: yeah, we have some interesting species around here. I'm a boring old Daughter of Eve, but I like to dress up as a knight or ranger most of the time. ;)

Interesting, all of you. I have some friends who have seen almost ALL of StudioC, so I know a bit about them (Bisque). The Piano Guys are Awesome, so is Lindsay Sterling, and I like what Peter Hollens does. I have only heard one of his songs (I See Fire), and I love it so much I can sing it pretty well. Nobody has seen my name before, by the way. At least, not Me. I am also interested in drawing, (what could be better that taking it from one of your better friends!), horses, video making, German, Icelandic, Swedish, (Etc.), singing, and I play trombone and violin. I am also homeschooled. My favorite hobby is reading. I have read Narnia about six times, LOTR and TH about ten times each, The Jungle Books about three times each, and a myriad of other things like G. A. Henty, Jules Verne, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

I've never read "The Jungle Book", but all the other books you mentioned I'm a fan of too. :)

@Pev: huh, I was so sure I'd seen your name before. Ah, well.
Peter Hollens has a number of really good ones (I don't listen to some of his selections, but there are a number of absolute gems - "Baba Yetu" may be one of, if not my absolute, favourites).
I haven't read any Arthur Conan Doyle apart from Sherlock Holmes, but I really enjoy the Holmes stories and have yet to read another book by him that I bought a couple years ago, but haven't got to yet.

Hobbit of Narnia,
Rudyard Kipling is a great author. I am not sure if he was Christian, and his books are not exactly christian, but they are not bad, if you know what I mean, rather, they are very good. Some of his stuff you may not want to get into, but I cannot remember what. All his stuff is Indian. Everything happens in India.
Ariel,
I should look into some more of Peter Hollens's work. He did the end song for Prince of Egypt, at least on youtube. I think Carman wrote it. In case you didn't know, Carman is a Christian author who has been around for years. He has been doing music since he was about 20, I think, and he is about 65 now. I went to a concert of his recently, and he is still doing it great.

@Pev: Whoa, wait, Carman wrote a song for Prince of Egypt?! How did I not know this? (Haha, yeah, he's getting up there, but still going at it for sure.)

Sorry for not getting the eth by ASCII Code ... also, my icelandic is one of my worst dialects of Germanic. I am fairly good at Swedish, German, English, though. I even read De Hobbit oop Nederlandsch.

You should read CSL's essay on Rudyard Kipling. That man, btw, was a freemason. Thus not a Christian. He overemphasises "teaching newcomers the ropes" a bit, if I may trust CSL. My own experience of him is, I liked the Just So Stories, especially about the alphabet.

Was H a shark tooth because SH would remind of S enough for the SH sound, while the shark jaw looked like the H? I meant shark jaw in the first instance too.

Hilarious.

The "if you believe", of these VERY early Christians?
