Oh yes! You're right. What's the book you're reading about?

I'm reading Radio Replies ATM for spiritual reading and love the Q&A style- keeps things bite-size for my little brain  :coffee:
To Jesus through Mary.

Remember the Holy Souls!

"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

What was the other one you mentioned a while back, Laus? The Heresy of Forlorness I think it was called?
To Jesus through Mary.

Well, I haven't read those ones yet, but I intend to read Book of Lost Tales I right after Unfinished.

I also purchased Tales Before Tolkien, a book of short stories including works Tolkien referred to and fantasy published during his younger years.

If your into that sort of thing you might like The Doors of Perception: Heaven and Hell by Aldous Huxley.
Another one I enjoyed was Flesh of the Gods: The Ritual Use of Hallucinogens. Edited by Peter Furst

What the Chief said. It's an excellent book (although I read it like 6 years ago) and argues quite convincingly for the TLM without using theology really...he's a playwright so he argues, like KK mentioned ,from the artsy side. It convinced me of the superiority of the TLM beyond just the smells and bells
