Trans-parere, I get the message

I believe that you may be right. My specious articles are based on my love of studying history. While I've read many books, a considerable amount more than my library contains, you have convinced me that your "intuition" is far more superior than my studies of history. Just to justify your superiority over foolish book readers, I will confess that these books are in my library, and I've read them. Again, I will acknowledge(maybe), that "intuition" is far more superior than studying history.

Here are some of the books in my library; The Middle East by Bernard Lewis, World Religions by Geoffrey Parrinder, History of Israel by Howard M. Saachar, From Time Immemorial by Joan Peters, The Timetables of History by Bernard Grun, The Legacy of Jihad by Ibn Warraq, The Myth of Islamic Tolerance by Robert Spencer, Why I Am Not a Muslim by Ibn Warraq, The Two Faces of Islam by Stephen Schwartz, The Book of Mormon, The Battle of Jerusalem by John Magee, Infiltration by Paul Sperry, and 3 Qur'ans by 3 different authors, Muslims of course. I'm so embarrassed that my articles are based on history books instead of the far superior knowledge that comes from "INTUITION". In the future, I will focus on "intuition" instead of studying history; maybe, OK, I'm not sure, for I do love reading History Books.

My last embarrassment is that I own more than 10 Bibles translated from Hebrew and Greek by 10 different translators. Please don't tell anybody, as I'm dealing with your powerful scrutiny of my previous articles, based on the power of your "INTUITION". Perhaps, in your next article, you can advise us foolish book readers as to how we can gain more knowledge through, "INTUITION". Please notice that I'm seriously considering "intuition", instead of book reading, (OK maybe).
