Guest guest Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 Hi Fraggle > i like karen armstrong....she's written a number of good books The only one I've read is " History of God " , but that one's well worth reading, so I reckon her other stuff must be good as well :-) BB Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
