"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

Ananda

The catholic church is the largest pro-pedophillia group in the world, and every member of it is guilty of supporting the rape of children, the ensuing protection of the rapists, and the continuing suffering of the victims.

the hyperbole is a beauty...for we are then allowed to say a little more than the truth...and language is more efficient when it goes beyond reality than when it stops short of it.

Seconding ussusimiel, who is definitely a 2011-crop new member. Tip of the cap to Vraith for the nom, since the two of them have been rather like oil and water at times.

I'm going to throw out a nom for Horrim Carabal. Not as active as some other new members, but he's been making some good contributions to discussions in the Last Chrons forums since joining.

I second Horrim. As Murrin says, big player in the Last Chrons forums.

Frostheart (previously Zorm).

She creates amazing artworks and stories, takes part in dissections, and it's a pleasure to know her as a person.

I didn't even know Horrim arrived in 2011...

Anyway, I nominate Cambo for 2010 Newbie of the Year.

(I'm damned if I know who'll actually get my vote, because I think Shaun and Ussuwhatsisname deserve it too...)
