    Most of my notes and experiences are in my head. I have a 2-page summary of all the signals and am considering writing a book or web site about them.

    Don't.

    Please please don't.

    There might be a vague chance you could turn such ideas into a comedy book, movie script or even a stand up comedy routine.

    However I suspect you lack the skills to tackle such a task.

    Believe me (I know I'm a perfect stranger) the only option for a book would be a vanity publishing.

    Web site would attract those wanting to push their own views of such signals and you would spend 100s of hours in waisted debate or more likely argument with them.

    Work on the comedy angle. I really cannot see a way forward if you are serious.

    no, you really don't, IMHO

    i've heard far more compelling and logical arguments from psyche patients than the above, with far better "evidence" to boot!

    so i'll not be satirical or insert hyperbole this time and break it down a little...

    lets look at your response versus the evidence based scientific response and compare them, shall we?
    at least you start out semi-logical, but that was the last logical anything that i saw
    medical diagnosis: strained muscle due to lifting 5 gallon water buckets at full extension
    medical diagnosis: CRPS (complex regional pain syndrome)
    medical diagnosis: injury and neurological damage
    medical diagnosis: injury and neurological damage combined with allergies
    medical diagnosis: severed nerve due to injuries sustained in the line of duty

    so, you can see that you really do not have a clue about how your comments sound. especially considering there are a myriad of other reasons, medical, physical or psychological, that can definitively be proven to cause said "body signals". this isn't a matter of debate as it is also able to be replicated as well as proven through various experiments and validated studies (google scholar that if you don't believe it, there is far, far to many validated studies that prove that one to link here)

    this means, by definition, that you have chosen a set of random physical (or psychological) ailments to define your "god"... as such, then the person with the more overwhelming ailments must then be the chosen. Stephen Hawking must be your saviour, eh?

    Believe it or not, I do agree that it's possible that I am misinterpreting TOBS, or that I am a special case, or some other misunderstanding that would invalidate or modify my findings. I plan to pursue a B.S. in Natural Sciences to further research this matter scientifically. My conclusions are subject to change based on what my research will yield.

    I think you have your BS already, and you're here to spread it around.

    How, uh, very clever. Seriously though, can you prove me wrong?

    I thought I would be kind and give you the benefit of doubt.

    The challenging question attitude however seems confronting with a touch of pig head stubborn.

    My cat could prove you wrong. In fact I think my cat could prove you not even wrong.

    Seriously though while I don't know how long you have been thinking with this train of thought but to only have 2 pages of notes and to rely on memory for such a ground breaking

    Why is it that God needs to talk thru symbols?
    Why the need for this nonsence l, why the need to indulge such a vague notion.
    Why would the left be bad or evil and the right good.
    Seriously you need to sit down and ask yourself some questions about why you favour delusion.
    Seek help from a doctor before your delusion ruins your life.
    Go for walks outside, go to the park sit under the stars and contemplate the infinite universe but please don't indulge this nonsence its wrong very very wrong.
    Best wishes

    God sometimes uses symbology and parables both to conceal truths from the unbeliever and to reveal truths to the believer. I don't know exactly why the signals mean what I think they do. I believe they are supplements, or helpful aides, to understanding spirituality, not meant to replace personal revelation, the scriptures or the prophets.

    I don't want anyone to unthinkingly just accept TOBS without question or testing. The Bible tells us to "Prove all things; hold fast that which is good." Test the body signals, read the Bible and the Book of Mormon, and ask God in prayer if the scriptures you've read are true in the name of Christ -- see James 1:5 in the Bible and Moroni 10:3-5 in the Book of Mormon.

    No what you think is the writings of God was written by men, humans, not a God.
    They write in mystery because they were ignorant and superstitious.
    They revered deepity and could not appreciate what nonsence they wrote.
    Why quote the words of ancients?
    Why can you not express your own mind?
    You have a better education, you must be able to shake off this ancient need for superstition and mystery.
    Read the bible cover to cover and tell me it is correct and relevant to the modern era.
    You have a mind it is not a sin to use it.

    The god virus strikes again.

    Think a vaccine is needed as bad as the one for AIDS.

    The god virus has spread far more misery.

    I've read the Bible cover-to-cover several times and it is certainly still relevant except for the law of Moses, which Jesus fulfilled. Jesus Christ or Jehovah (YHWH) stands at the head of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and will soon return to rule the world, so I'd say that the scriptures still matter.

    I can and do express and use my own mind, that's what it's for!

    Why would god want to conceal truths from unbelievers?

    We have to realize that the ancients had their own unique worldviews, societal and cultural practices, etc. and God spoke to their limited understandings the things they needed to know that aren't necessarily still relevant in our day. This is not to say that God's truth changes; on the contrary, He speaks truths to each generation according to His will and pleasure. He speaks to us in our day through modern prophets.

    I do appreciate your concern, but I'm AOK.
