When an adjective and noun form a noun phrase (such as "He's a Christian anarchist") there's no hyphen; when it forms an adjectival phrase (such as "He's a Christian-anarchist writer") it takes a hyphen. Standard English grammar, designed in part to avoid ambiguity (there's a difference between being an anarchist and a Christian and being a Christian anarchist; in the former case there wouldn't be a hyphen). --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 15:38, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Did it bother anyone...

that the prophecy scrolls were supposedly written 600 B.C., but they made predictions about what would happen in the "second millennium," which the protagonists took to mean the present day. I guess the scrolls also foresaw the birth of Christ.

The manuscript and story is fiction, but the insights are true. I too have experienced them. 189.162.49.108 17:27, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Needs to be revised

This is only a rather bland view of the book and of the Insights, perhaps a more in depth discussion of each Insight could be done as well as a reference to the Experimental Guide which offers a lot to help people underdtand the book. --Katana Geldar 21:58, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
