[Magdalen] Wedding?

[John Robison]

I will admit she took my breath away.
I thought the dress/veil/train was stunning.
I thought the service (I printed out a copy and sang along to the hymns)
was beautiful.
The PB set the preaching bar very high, and I wept again.
My Dad, a dispiser of sermons past 10 minuets thought it was fantastic.
The music was superb.
I genuinely felt happy for them.

"Among the repulsions of atheism for me has been its drastic
uninterestingness as an intellectual position." - John Updike

"There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life:
The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that
often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading
to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with
the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."  ~John Rogers
