No matter what she did with her hair it took about three minutes for it to tangle itself up again, like a garden hosepipe in a shed [Which, no matter how carefully coiled, will always uncoil overnight and tie the lawnmower to the bicycles].

One day, if he could master GCSE maths and reliably pick up a soldering iron by the end that wasn't hot, he was going to be a Big Man in computers.

It seems that the history currently being written, is somewhat similar to that of the original Crusades, with differing religions seemingly using different books, all based on older originals, to justify actions as good and righteous. Amazing how little humanity learns over hundreds of years reading the same books.

I think I would like to refer all sides to another book, slightly newer, but just as 'booky' (has pages and words, just like the others). One by Sir Terry Pratchett (not a prophet, disciple, or guru, just an author). Just one of many books he wrote, with more wisdom within than most. This quote is from Snuff.

"Goodness is about what you do. Not what you pray to."

I think that says enough. Goodness, not God-ness. *Places the microphone on the stand and quietly sits down.
