    Several years ago, I'd have said go for it but several years ago I was strongly contemplating doing so myself as a counter to some truly horrendous misrepresentations that a given member at the time liked to post. As he's gone and most of the current active membership don't post the same crap...

    it's probably more effort than it's worth.
    life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.

    Yoda: Dark Rendezvous

    "But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

    John Rowlands, The Grey King by Susan Cooper

    "You come from the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve", said Aslan. "And that is both honour enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth; be content."

    Aslan, Prince Caspian by CS Lewis

      That's what I've been thinking. I mean, it would take a lot of time to properly cite my sources... But I feel like there is a larger discussion that needs to go on in both Christian and Pagan communities about overblown persecution narratives that stretch the historical record past the breaking point. IMHO.
      hey look, I have a book! And look I have a second one too!

        Figure that doesn't even touch the feminist movements utilization of the term and made the period even wider so it includes basically all of western history and millions of women persecuted and exploited.

          I confess that I'm gonna buy a ticket to somewhere outside Israel after army. I almost don't care where. All I care about is a good weather (raaaaiiiin!!!!), finding a good job and apartment, and I really want the place to be safe. Oh and I shouldn't forget the language.

                  I confess.. I am going to have to do something else rather than look after my baby full-time before I go bonkers.
