I'm truly blessed to be part of a community so talented and inspiring in the written word. I'm overwhelmed sometimes by the cheer talents and innovation displayed here, especially in Tylans writing and in the inspirational texts.
Seriously, it's like the Dead Poets Society only with more trolls. John Bauer ones, preferably! :lol:

All men named Jorbtar. Praise the Holy Duo.

Edit: I hadn't seen Spazz's praise. To be put in a category with the author of the Whispering Snakeskull's blurb...

Thank you :cry: Too many feels...

Nah, I think what he is trying to say is that he was inspired by God.

And you, in your hubris, would attempt to breathe mortal meaning into the word of God Himself?! Forgive him, Lord, for he knows not what he does!

Ah, a true believer! I beg forgiveness. It was merely a interpretation made by a puny mortal..

Before the Lord's angels lock this thread for the answer having been given, I recommend a few moments of quiet reflection on the beach near the docks. As you look out on the endless majesty of the sea, imagine the awesome power of the hands that created it. It is by His will alone that we click our way through this world. He is not a god of salvation, but a god of knowledge. He has no pity, only endless curiosity, and in that we find ourselves blessed to be a figment of his interest. Do not question His ways or workings, but accept that as the maple leaf floats atop the roiling flotsam of the sea, so too do we drift through the whims of the mighty Jorbtar.

Did you by any chance write any of the descriptions of the inspirationals, Tylan? Seems like your style.

:lol: :lol:

never fails, anytime someone references god or religion in some way it is not long before some pissant has to interject and announce that he is an atheist. nobody cares, rot in the ground if your right.
