AAAHCH! Tagged!

Tagged like a spring hog by Old School Confessional. Everyone should reflect on the books they read though so here goes.

1. One Book that changed your life: The Writings of Martin Luther by Dillenberger. A simple collection but one that sparked my interest and helped my understanding of original Lutheran thought and study.

2. One book you've read more than once: Dungeon, Fire and Sword by Robertson. Robertson is a closet Freemason, but his book on the Templars is a good historical read on the Crusades, no one can read of the acts of courage and faith many Crusaders displayed and not question "what is this faith that made them go willingly to painful death?"

3. One book you'd want on a desert island: Other than a KJV bible, it would be How to Make a Boat Out of Sand and Palm Fronds

4. One book that made you laugh: All the Trouble in the World by P. J. O'Rourke

5. One book that made you cry: The Yearling. (The part where the only son returns home to his father, not where the deer dies silly, how soft do you think I am?)

6. One book that you wish had been written: How to Win Lutheran Worship Style Debates in One Easy Step.

7. One book that you wish had never been written: There are so many, but how about Dianetics, Battlefield Earth or any other waste of paper by Ron L Hubbard.

8. One book you're currently reading: Nero's Killing Machine, The True Story of Romes Remarkable 14th Legion

9. One book you've been meaning to read: Lutheran Worship and Practice edited by Precht (actually I just need to finish it)

10. Now tag someone else. This thing has pretty well made its way through the bloggosphere, even Luther took a tag. Here's two who haven't played though, enjoy if you will.
