I love that idea too! Though this is the first time I've seen that quote. ::shame:: You have not read Mere Christianity? Ooooh you should. It's FULL of SHINY THOUGHTS. His greatest talent is to put complex ideas into straightforward language, and he tackles all kinds of ideas in that book. I <3 it liek whoa! :) (One day I shall write a post about my faith, but I've yet to work out how.)
Okay. I've found it hard to be invested in Doctor/River precisely because of this feeling of ~DESTINY TRUE LOVE~ (even though they are so not juvenile like that), but this post has put it in perspective for me. Yay! \o/ \o/ \o/ I adore them to *pieces* (for about a million different reasons), but since I am not a fan of things that are 'destined to be' I found their relationship to be especially interesting, because it clearly *is* destined, and yet it wasn't pinging any of my 'Not My Cup of Tea' buttons. (Buffy/Angel - very sweet, not my thing. Doctor/Rose - lovely, but not my thing...) I wondered why that was, and this was the result. :)
