have you ever read the book called" War Of The World?

Yes, I have.  It is actually called "War of the Worlds" by H.G.(Herbert George) Wells and it deals with an invasion of the Earth by aliens.  I am sure you know the Steven Spielberg/Tom Cruise film of the same name.  It is not the same as the book, though.  In the book, the aliens land, destroy many different things, and die due to germs in our atmosphere.  You should try to read the book one day.

I think its a truly interesting concept, if it would be proved to be true the world as we know it would change.. Most of the foundations of Christianity would be rattled. If I think its true? well it most certainly provides a few answers to many of my questions. Lets just say if its fiction then its one of the best fiction books out there, and if its true, the world isn't ready for it yet. It isn't a book about atheists it never says Jesus never did miracles or didn't exist, it just states the possibility of him not dying on the cross and kind of gives a insight at what his life as a man (not the son of God but a man) might have been like.

Well, there are certain prophecies that were uncomfortably similar to actual events/ people ( Hitler, Great fire of London, World war 2) Although he predicted a great war in 1999 to end all wars, which would be won by a yellow race - which, depending on your interpretation is either yet to be fulfilled if its still ongoing or complete BS.\n\nAnyway all I know is, when I was about ten I asked for this huge book called 'marvels and mysteries of the unexplained' and it had a section on prophecies. The prophet for 1999 by Nostradamus made my twin sister cry unconsolably because she thought it would come true and had nightmares for years (until 1999) so he may or may not have been correct.However I never got to research it as my sister superglued his pages together....

Yes someone decided there is Bible Code for the end of the world occuring in the year 2006. Howeever - I have it on the hieghest authority that the world will not end at that time.\n\nIF there is anything to it - it could be the end of the world as we know it.., as in the outbreak of World War III (which is due in a matter of time anyway) But not the end of the world. Another World War is Still a very serious matter no matter when it happens. More people will die than ever recorded in history.

Not that you would recognize from the book.  The US of A has more Class War going on there than here in the UK these days.

aahhh!  tim o'brien... sorry, i dont have the answer because i never saw the movie.  i did read the book though.  tim o'brien is actually a teacher at my school (texas state university) and the chair of the english department.  he actually came to my class (close friends with my english teacher) last semester and the 17 of us got to talk to him one on one.  it was so interesting to hear all of the things he had to say about life, war, love, things that are going on now...it was also very interesting to hear that most of that book is not reliable information on what really happened to him at war.

Yes I have, I have to say that book changed my life. The title can be decieveing.. just a little, because I felt the book was more about spirituality.. I'm not a big reader, and that book was like 300 pages.. it really is a book you cant stop reading, but sometimes you have to put it down cause its pretty deep.. and you need to just stop and obsorb the information. Its a really good, and you dont have to read the 1st book to get the others, I started w/ #4 I think..and it made me look at life very differently.

I always felt sorry for Goldstein in 1984. he was one of the revolutionary leaders who got thrown out in the name of power. there are similarities between him and Osama, but the impression given in the book is that goldstein is just trying to dismantle a terrible system (if he indeed exists) in the name of good. both certainly were used as scapegoats to prolong a war, i feel goldstein was trying to reclaim his misdirected revolution in the book.\nboth have been used to control the populations thoughts. americans as with oceania, rely heavily on the media to inform them, and having seen american tv, theres a lot going on that isn't shown on it.\nlots of comparsions i suppose.......\nchrist, finally an inspired question!! fair play to you! got me thinking about this one!! : )

For heavens sake dont ever think of WAR first and then about its experience.\nWar is nothing but overall destruction. War seperates families.War destroys industries/buildings/bridges/propetrties/schools/hospitals.\nIt kills the soldeirs both side who are citizens of some country or the other,as well as innocent citizens who are not part of any army. It kills young and old alike. People are left with maimed organs for entire life.\nEven after the war is over one does not know where the hiddeen mines are which explodes when some one trips over.\nIt is horror , a terrorised experience to go thro and service . What a taste you have \nAre you joking when you ask was it hard living through it . want some one to say he enjoyed living through it. \nNot only the warring nations but all the rest of the world suffers and pay a price because of shortages of many items due to diversion of items to war fronts.

Yes, I have read it.  Actually, my mom knew the women in it before the Lafferty brothers killed here.  The deal with this book is that it is definetely written by an individual who is not a fan of Mormonism and his bias is obvious.\nThat being said the actual factual information about the Lafferty's and the FLDS group is really very good and the book does a good job of laying these problems out.  Krakeur is also correct in pointing out that these at least partially results from a larger problem in Mormonism.  Mormonism is like Islam in that can breed extremism if not careful.  Hopefully Mormons will be more successful in dealing with these issues than muslims.\nOverall, I thought the book was an excellent historical work on some touchy issues that are not discusses as much as they should but I wish it would have been a little more objective.

Have you perhaps read the book "MOOM"? I would like to find this book again.It was a cheap paperback horror novel about a retarded man who, if he managed to escape his elderly mother's basement, ran wild towards the full moon, screaming "MOOM, MOOM" and tearing to pieces anything or anyone on his path, creating mayhem and terror in the town. I beg of you to read this book.
