I'm hoping people don't miss it with all the other books that downloaded, but it looks like we also get Modern Christian Theology this month. I'm only a little ways in, but so far it looks like a very readable approach to a challenging subject.

These are some old books. Does anyone know if these would have been some of the books that the early believers in Ephesus burned in Acts 19:19?
I notice that in the index book it lists this:
I. Vedic-Brâhmanic Religion.
(a) Prayers and Hymns, vols. 32, 42, 46.
(b) Magic, Rites, and Theology, vols. 12, 26, 29, 30, 41, 42, 43, 44.
Müller, F. M., & Winternitz, M. (Eds.). (1910). A General Index to the Names and Subject-matter of the Sacred Books of the East (p. xv). Oxford: Clarendon Press.
Also related to this, if these books were burned by the early church, should I be keeping them on my computer? Any thoughts regarding this?

Very very unlikely as the chances of anyone in ancient Ephesus knowing the language they were originally written in (Sanskrit) is minuscule.

Thanks Sean!

However, as Indo-European languages, your knowledge of Sanskrit will help your Greek and Latin (and vice versa). [:P]
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
