I'm just after reading Dante's Inferno and found this quiz. Take the test: http://www.4degreez.com/misc/dante-inferno-test.mv
For those who haven't read it there is a special place in the inferno for soothsayers, where you get your head stitched on backwards. He references Sun signs throughout the poem, though.

Not in the best taste, maybe. This is good though (and saves reading the book): The interactive Inferno http://web.eku.edu/flash/inferno/ IP: Logged |

.L'Inferno di Dante Alighieri Di Dante Alighieri, George John Warren Vernon, Francis Lawrance (Written in the early 1300's?) In some strange chain of events I've just uploaded it and then come here to discover this thread... Hmmm? Coincidence? I think not... For those that should choose to read it however... Simply click here (it begins on page 9 of the pdf and is some 230ish pages long) Will check out those links now blue moon IP: Logged |

. My results are in.. Your fate has been decided.... You are one of the lucky ones! Because of your virtue and beliefs, you have escaped eternal punishment. You are sent to the First Level of Hell - Limbo! First Level of Hell - Limbo
Charon ushers you across the river Acheron, and you find yourself upon the brink of grief's abysmal valley. You are in Limbo, a place of sorrow without torment. You encounter a seven-walled castle, and within those walls you find rolling fresh meadows illuminated by the light of reason, whereabout many shades dwell. These are the virtuous pagans, the great philosophers and authors, unbaptised children, and others unfit to enter the kingdom of heaven. You share company with Caesar, Homer, Virgil, Socrates, and Aristotle. There is no punishment here, and the atmosphere is peaceful, yet sad IP: Logged |

Glad someone liked it, can't remember where I was thrown, Limbo sounds like the place to be though. This book really fired my imagination. IP: Logged |
