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. ;)

Thank you for the advice. Have you read Might Is Right, or The Survival of the Fittest, Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus, Darwin, Marx, Wagner: Critique of a Heritage, The Gay Science, The Education of Henry Adams, The Art of War, The Adams-Jefferson Letters, The Prince, The Epic of Gilgamesh, Paradise Lost, A Clockwork Orange, Brave New World, Leviathan, or The Republic? I am not a writer. I am a rebel.

It's not the choice of literature I point individuals interested in Sithism, or even self betterment within the current model of society we live in. We are talking Sithism still, correct? While the Art of War is a worthy read as it is an excellent starting point for understanding diplomacy, the rest of your selection is terribly outdated, or simply not relevant to the subject as a primer, no offense...

There are much better sources of reading available that will provide a better understanding from a "readers point of view," although books alone will never suffice to provide all the answers one may be searching for...

I've listed multiple times within the forums what I myself would point newbie readers interested in the subject, a meager ten minutes in the search bar will provide the links to the threads I am referring to, so I won't regurgitate it here...

You don't need to be a professional writer to be a rebel, but in order to convey your message (whatever that may be) effectively to others one must study language, and how it is employed. One would also do well to study psychology, as this is imo a "language of the self" and is universal.

The days of fighting wars one on one with swords or even guns are over, the victor's of today's wars are employing language, psychology and technology. How can one possibly rebel effectively if they lack a understanding of how to effectively communicate? Hit the books buddy...
