I have a question, and this is the second time I've asked it, what's the point? Was a Sith for thirty plus years before coming here, this fails to enlighten or inspire me...

I did a quick read over the document given. I'm gonna have to agree with the comments that have already been made. Lots of points are made but don't seem to go anywhere, and the document itself needs a lot of work. I do wish you luck in your future edits!

I was a bit let down that you left out page 13, where for a full paragraph Dr. Frankenstein's dyslexic monster realizes that GOD backwards is DOG.

May the woof be with you.

I appreciate what you're trying to do, Heavenly Warrior. I think you need more practice though in writing. Which, in my own experience, came about by reading. A lot. Aside from the 100 or so Star Wars books I read, I also ready dozens of philosophical books. I'm not bragging, just trying to give you an idea of what it takes to get a grasp of grammar and flow—without taking classes, that is.

I did take some writing classes, but still think it was all the reading I've done in my life that taught me how to organize my thoughts and present them in a clear and concise manner.

Don't quit, no matter what you read here in these posts. Just practice. And read.

That's not to say I agree with Darwin or Nietzsche, but from one writer to another, this is my advice.

EDIT: Oh, and Br. John, if you have something to say, just say it, instead of hinting at it with cartoons.

You were saying?

Some people can get the point across just as efficiently with pictures as some can with words...

Your eye for detail is what makes you a great artist, Zenchi. I'm happy you can communicate visually. I'm stuck on blogging :laugh:

That's often how my own writing style feels. :blush:

I'd certainly hope I can do better than this though.

The founding father of Socialism was Dr. Frankenstein.

I don't even know if I can continue past this.

It's not bad to write your thoughts, free flow. I would suggest organizing those thoughts after being written to give it some structure and clarity; otherwise, misunderstandings will more often occur. ;)
