Off topic, I know, but I used to own a `74 Allusion. The pin-striped model.

Some comments about writing
I know you will think this a bunch of crap, but it's not. When I was trying to imagine the worldview of Faith, I wrote this:
"Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid; for I am with you always, to the end of the world." Sometimes when I feel down, I think on those words, and peace returns to me"
And I found it deeply moving. In fact, I was moved to tears. I am wondering if my emotional reaction might be evidence of something?

It could be evidence that Jesus is calling to you. Rev 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. Mat 11:28 Come unto me, all [ye] that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Re: Some comments about writing
Thank you, Faith, for responding to me.
I guess you did not like my "rendition" of you.
But you did seem rather angry, most of the time.
Therefore I thought my caricature just. But I am moved by many passages in the Bible, and perhaps my favorite is as follows:
"Lay not up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also."
Wonderful.

Please tell us that you are going to keep going with this. Also, you do seem to have the "characters" pegged pretty well...great job!
Yeah, Jesus was pretty much a bleeding-heart liberal do-gooder, so yeah, I'd probably do him.
Nice body, too. You ever see how ripped he is on the crucifixes?
Awesome abs.

Re: Some comments about writing
Your rendition of me could have been worse, but it did come at a time when I was being piled on rather ferociously so I just took a vacation from the place. I've been angry, that's for sure, and maybe the portrait is apt enough. Part 2 was really hilarious though.
I've had a lot of fun with a Neverending Story on a forum. Have you done that? It seems that's what some others here are trying to turn this into. Someone starts, leaving the action at as "interesting" a point as you can think of and the next person takes off from there.
You are pointing out the beautiful literary qualities of Jesus' words, but if you are content to leave it on that level you are missing the real treasure.

Honestly, holmes, I thought that your first reply to rohanrobin was written "in character."
Damn.

But I hope you understand that I did not mean to offend you.
And if I did, I apologize.

Lagavulin perhaps? Believe it or not, it tastes pretty good with homemade vanilla ice cream (A few bites if ice cream, then a sip of Lagavulin).

Topic!
WILL you people stop this inane chattering and get back to work? I am starting to feel like the moderator in the play that can't get anyone to stay on topic! Robin, please keep writing. I want to read a play, not a reality show with a bunch of meaningless chatter!!
