will fill you in after I read it...

it caught my eye in that the design & title suggest it's kinda 'the religion response' to that New Age-type book ppl have been talking about for a year or more ('The Secret')--
like, hey, instead of trying to convince ourselves that 'we regular folks' can 'do miracles,' how about we give God the credit for it, because He's the only one who really can

I bought a book a couple of months ago called "How to Develop and Maintain a Harem in New York in 2007" Underneath it reads: A valuable expression in the science of positive thinking.

I thought it would make an excellent topic for an adult education course. I submitted the idea and have so far seen twenty eight sign ups. I thought they would be men but am surprised to see that they are all women. I thpught that this positive thinking thing was working faster than expected until I read that attending this course would require all weapons checked at the door. Somehow this didn't seem to be a normal reaction for women eager to enjoy the delights of being part of a harem.

So I guess I'll just have to make them see the importance of positive thinking and surrendering to the moment. Since they all seem educated, I imagine that the logic of the technique and the appreciation of the power of positive thought should allow the basic idea to be easily acceptable as a normal result of education.
