I was sitting around watching "The Worst Witch" starring Faruzia Bulk and Tim Curry, and i was thinking to myself, My god, there are so many similarities between this and Harry Potter! and its true. there are many many similarities. Do you guys think that maybe, The Worst Witch books and movie gave Jo some kind of inspiration while writing Potter, or do you think that it is all just coincidence?

The figures range from 9% to 60%. Maybe it has something to do with how the question is phrased ins surveys. For example, if asked if they believe that the world was created 6000 years ago and kangaroos skipped all the way from Noah's Ark to Australia, perhaps only 9% would agree. But if asked if they beleive that the whole Universe is just an accident with no purpose whatsover, and that nothing but blind chance rules the evolution of species, then perhaps only 50% would agree.

Personally, I think that Americans are much more like Europeans in this regard, and that it is the nature of the questions put to them makes it look as if the US is turning its back on science

I am usually a very strong person and can handle all the blows that come my way, but I have just had enough ... I never give up, but right now, I feel that it's all for nothing! Is it really worth the fight?

“Estefu nian kara Veera Argwene…”

The cool voice of Vono echoed throughout the temple, and Maldin snapped out of his reverie. It was starting to get dark, but the people gathered inside the temple did not even notice this. All eyes were on the lone figure lying on the cold altar.

“…mie zwellsal akinya saumied…”

He lifted his gaze and took one last look at the pale face of the woman on the cold stone. The last rays of light crept over her face, to the beautiful face, the long dark hair. His chest tightened as he realized, for the first time since her death yesterday, that he would never see her again. That despite all, she’s leaving them, him behind.

“…dreke nian shrisa kuri…”

Karakus, priest of fire, stepped forward and raised his arms in silent prayer. At once, white flames erupted from the sides of the altar. The Fire of Gewandel, Goddess of Death.

“…estefu nian kara…Veera Argwene…”

He watched in silent agony as the white flames slowly engulfed her body. He closed his eyes, not wanting to see. When he opened them, her body was gone and the flames are starting to disappear. It’s over. She’s gone. Estefu nian kara, Veera Argwene…Farewell to thee Lady Argwene, priestess of the waters in Nimaea, and the only woman he’d ever loved.
