For me hands down it would be Tennessee Williams. He is just the epitome of a beautiful play-wright his plays carry such tragedy yet pure magic at the same time it is sheer brilliance. He is so honest it is powerfully alarming.
If you have not read at least one of the following plays, 'A...
Shakespeare is not bad. I think he is a matured taste though, I know of hardly any 13 year olds or first time Shakespeare readers who immediately loved his works. Definitely an acquired taste. I love Shakespeare though and I would probably start with either The Tempest or Romeo and Juliet, then...
The Quran for sure. I found it an extremely calming read.
The Bible too particularly the New Testament or any of the Gospels.
I haven't read many other religious texts but now I am going to take a look at some of the texts mentioned above. So thanks for this thread!
I say Amen to anyone who can sustain any level of abstinence you have great self-control and faith, not necessarily religious faith but faith with yourself and that is admirable.

I have never thought of Heaven as possibly being here on Earth but what you just said really struck something with me, but could this *edit* hole really be Heaven? Could this be it?! With all the wars, diseases, pain, terrorists, evil people and ultimately dying? Heaven for me is for ETERNITY...
Please, call me Mae. MaeDha seems so wacky! And I have just been scrounging around and have already found some already rather interesting material up for debate!
I consider myself a better person within myself but it's definitely not up for comparison with other people. Just because I am a Catholic and have found God does not necessarily make me a better person than a Jewish person who has found God or a Muslim who has found Allah. But following an...
Hi, I am Mae a 17 year old with an extremely keen interest in Religion. I am Scottish, from Glasgow and am a proud Catholic, so a Celtic supporter all the way! Yet from the ages of 3-9 I was brought up in Egypt, a predominately Muslim country which was extremely influential upon my religious...
