Speculation makes a better, longer lived discussion. It allows sufficient room for the topic to be adjusted according to the discussion. The lack of utter clarity in a topic post can make people much more interesting and more interested than compared to a thread about a strict topic (subjects for such threads are running very low, and I haven't thought of one in a while...).

But anyway, most things on this forum are fun or interesting (the ones that I participate in at least [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ), so it's all good. What I find particuliarly humorous about this thread is that I saw an almost exact replica of this discussion take place a few months back. The thread was something about numerology in the books. It too took an inevitable turn into the Allegory discussion, and the conversation stopped soon after...
