I didn't ask you if you would read them. I asked you whether or not you would -believe- in the contents of the Silmarillion...if you read it?
Because if you wouldn't..then "it's in the vedas" isn't a sufficient explanation for your beliefs about gods and afterlives and the rules of magic, whatever they are...if there are any. There must be more. We know, from your previous statements, that it;s nothing in science, for example, that leads you to conclude these things either. So if it isn't to do with something being written down somewhere (which I doubt it is), and it isn't some experiment or natural law.........
What is it? Explain how you know...what you claim to know?
