an appeal to the curious self
Dear curious/furious
I choose to label the initial pamphlets as being ironic, rather than deceitful. But that's just me; I'm an abstract thinker. The regular world doesn't make much sense to me. This is the key reason all this appealed to me. I was able to decode the secret message in the pamphlet: my second letter.
Parts of the literature I purchased [back in March] taught me to stand up for myself, and eventually love myself. I was completely broke and I scraped the money together delivering pizzas to purchase the book. I wish more people cared enough about themselves to be as gullible as me.
Maybe I turned a scam into something beautiful for myself. Maybe I'm on my way to something better. Does it matter to you?
I am, however, still poor. But it wasn't this "scam" that put me here. I get up to five email scams a day. I've investigated probably every type of scam there is. Fraud, deception, laziness, & threats of force are an unfortunate part of reality. (Go back a few pages and read about the person who was told by the FBI that they can't investigate every instance of online predatorial behavior--laziness. Guess what else the FBI is--an agent of force. What good is a government or its agencies except to protect the individual?)
If you go to answers.com you will see an association between
Julian Jaynes' book:
The origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind and the people of which you have refered.
I suggest going to your local library. Flip through this book. (I say this because it is close to 500 pages.)
You may learn (or have learnt) what I've experienced--intellect is not a prerequisiste to consciousness. I have seen great man after great man fall away from this natural state.
I'm interested, in becoming rich someday, but I'd be happy just to get out of the rut I've created for myself fiscally. I've chosen the long road. Here's a truely ironic twist--the longest road may exist within yourself.
I'm just a guy who's searching. I read between the lines and think outside the box. I try not to judge those who don't.
