Sacred Causes: the clash between religion and politics since WWI.

The History of Christianity ( on audiobook when I'm driving or working out)

So once again I'm left with the classic Irish man's dilemma, do I eat the potato or do I let it ferment so I can drink it later?

Reading Lolita in Tehran - Azar Nafisi.

I liked that one and usually I can't stand litaphiles when they write.

I'm currently reading Sex at Dawn: The Prehistoric Origins of Modern Sexuality - by Christopher Ryan and Cacilda Jethá. The authors' site has the introduction and various excerpts available online.

Also reading The Gun Seller, a novel by Hugh Laurie.

I recently finished Homer's Iliad, followed by Virgil's Aeneid, and now am nearly finished Homer's Odyssey. Can NOT get enough of the classics. I've got a fresh copy of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales on my book shelf as soon as I'm done

Quote from: Hassan on January 02, 2011, 05:41 PM
It has almost always been my experience that English (and other) converts I've met are rather odd, and in some ways dysfunctional people. (In fact the famous English eccentricity I think has meant that many such odd-balls have been attracted to Islam.)

You're an odd-ball.
*violently taps Hassan with a toothpick on the shoulder* ...tap, tap-tap, tap... Is that odd enough for you? Huh?

I have to agree with you Prince_S., it is a very good point., Not only reading a book is important but making others interested in it is equally important. So start a thread with a heading name ..something like "Let me read you guys a book" ...
