RE: Hello Everyone
Nice to see another Catholic on board. Welcome!
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Tried one of the others but found it very hard to get into.

Not everyone likes them, but to each their own!  (Though almost no one likes God Emperor of Dune, it's like Frank was reading a lot of 70s or 80s pop psychology or something while he wrote it.)

I very much enjoy playing Dune 2000 and controlling the spice. It's free to play online nowadays Big Grin

It is? Dear goodness, I need to go find it now. I love that old RTS; especially how it lets you set a sliding scale of tech in skirmishes, so you can actually do infantry only warring, which makes keeping an eye on your harvesters even more important, lest the worms swallow them!
