Do you ever get
the feeling some people aren't playing with a full deck? -by Bart Baggett
Can you believe this? When I received this letter in a typical
returned package, I fell over laughing. First of all, I dislike
getting returns. But, if you are in any kind of business that
offers a one year unconditional guarantee, you will get some
people returning stuff for a variety of reasons. Most, in fact,
contains notes apologizing for returning it saying they didn't
have time, or they needed the money, etc. Why then, would this
man be so hostile and confrontational? Do you think he sees other
situations in his life with equally "off color" glasses?
My boss, the government, my wife, etc.
Remember, a person's beliefs create their reality.
Hint: if you don't like your place in life... evaluate your
beliefs before you go pointing fingers. (i.e. life is hard, money
is scarce, people are mean, etc.) You might want to read the

In any case, this note cracked me up. In fact, if felt sorry
for the guy. Really, my course could have really opened his eyes
to his issues and made a difference, but alas... more years to
blame and struggle in his own personal hell.
If you read it, you will quickly realize that this is a case
of religion's influence a life strategy that is totally motivated
by FEAR, not love. Therefore, because fear is his primary motivator-
resentment, sarcasm, and other hostility traits run rampant throughout
the writing. If you think about hell, fire, anger, devil, revenge,
etc all your life... that is what you will get. When he struggles
with his inner demons, he is right. They are his own Inner demons
and they are very real to him because he created them. (Because
I don't share his beliefs, I don't experience his type strife.)
It's clear that this guy not only believes in heaven and hell
- but he has chosen to create "hell" in his daily life.
Milton in the classic books Paradise Lost said "The mind
is its own place, within it you can create a heaven or you can
create Hell." I am picking on his particular religious beliefs
for two reasons
1) he brings it up as the reason for his return
2) He has the resentment stroke in such a strong way it may be
useful to understand where his pain and particular beliefs might
originate from. Remember, it isn't a "religion" that
messed this guy up, it is the unique combination of his upbringing,
his biology, his experiences, his mother, his decisions about
what is right and wrong, and finally... what he chooses to believe
about himself, the world, God, and other people.
Beliefs are choices, but he doesn't realize they are.
Let's analyze this together.
First of all, he does not have lying loops, as he falsely
assumes. He has a weird combination of secretive loops and huge
stingers that might appear like double loops to the amateur.
His stingers are both tremendous anger at strong women and even
borer on the "felon's claw" which is referenced in
many classic handwriting books.
See the enlarged version here:
But, since the devil is all around us, the cards must be "evil!"
How dare those cards call him a liar! (they didn't) Now, if you
are sensitive to criticism... and sarcastic... what do you do?
You blame someone for your own pain.
Of course, this is called a "victim" complex and it
resonates with the people in life that are the most unsuccessful
and unhappy because they cannot (and will not) take 100% responsibility
for their life and the circumstances they attract.
Therefore you see in the last paragraph - "I'm returning
this crap". The best defense to a fragile ego is strong
"offense." I'll hurt them, before they can hurt me.
Because this hurts me, it is bad and wrong.
So, the huge "hook" we call stingers signifies a
high degree of anger and "stuff" as it relates to all
females on the planet. I would be willing to bet his mother was
an overbearing hard core fundamental Christian that drilled into
his head that he was a "bad sinner!" Little Jimmy bought
every bit of it hook, line, and sinker... thus effecting his
self-image, his sexual identity, and how he relates to people.
Furthermore, he brought along the extra baggage of guilt and
fear of being ridiculed. It is the "self-consciousness"
and the "sensitivity to criticism" that Jim believes
is an inferiority complex and introverted personality. Introverts
don't have this level of anger and expressiveness - he is self-consciousness,
but not introverted.
Self-consciousness is revealed by the uphill m and n humps.
(Fear of ridicule.) This is compounded by the loop in the d-stem.
(sensitive to criticism)
Jim's personality is type is not introverted in the least
-his FEARS have control over his expressive nature. I would say
by the nature of this letter along to a total stranger... he
isn't coming across as very shy and reserved. In fact, his is
aggressive.
By the way, as a contrast just on the "content".
When you sell thousands of courses or books a year and offer
a one year guarantee... you get returns. It is part of doing
business. About 90% include kind letters that simply say "I
didn't have time", "It wasn't for me," etc. Why
then, would this man be so hostile and confrontational? Do you
think he sees other situations with equally "off color"
glasses?
Remember, a person's beliefs create
their reality.

Back to the Stingers....
The only reason I speculate his mother was a problem is that
I rarely see stingers this pronounced and a "strong dominant
female" is always at the root of the problem. (The capital
personal pronoun I is balanced, so he seems to be including his
mother / father image in his life). Furthermore, anyone with
a need to control/ dominate to this extreme must feel utterly
and totally "out of control" deep inside his soul.
Basically, this guy is a pain in the ass to everyone who is around
him because, in my opinion, he feels everyone is the devil in
disguise trying to temp him. And, I would speculate he learned
this behavior from his mother -- Just an educated guess. We are
usually more like our parents that we care to admit.
The final interesting thing about this note is Jim owns perception
of himself. He says on page 2...
"I admit I am frustrated. But that's because of my all
out effort to obey God's word and my introverted inferiority."
Do you see any introversion in the heavy d/ e+ slanted writing.
Nope. Again, he misinterprets his "fears" and confuses
it to mean his personality type.
You might notice on page 2 a serious depression starting to occur
with the words bending down near the end of the paper. This is
significant enough to warrant contacting him, his family, or
his church and recommending professional counseling. I would
go as far as recommending a psychiatrist consider putting him
on a few months of Paxil, Prozac, or Wellbutrin. He could most
likely benefit from an anti-depressant. And, by the way, I would
always recommend a natural remedy first. But, this guy is in
serious dire straights.
By the way, he only ordered the basic handwriting kit. (A
video, cards, and book.) Notice how he personalized "your
analysis if false." He even wrote the letter directly to
me - As if I open every letter and ship every package myself.
I, Bart, have never given him an analysis nor have ever spoken
to him. One element of a large loop in the "d stem"
is the tendency to personalizing everything. As if I wrote that
book way back in 1994 -- just to piss Jim off. Interesting how
defensive and aggressive people can be if they perceive their
beliefs are being challenged. Heck can you imagine if he thought
the cards said he was a proud fornicator? He might be outside
my door with a gun.
Hmmm - I'm wondering if anyone reading this has ever enjoyed
sex outside wedlock? And been proud of it? We must be treacherous
liars - according to his logic. Proud Fornicators is a term I've
never heard before - it's funny, I'll use in some future satirical
article.
It is this kind of warped non-logical conclusions that make
any fanatical religious zealot dangerous. It is exactly how people
who want to share God's love rationalize blowing up airplanes
and bombing abortion clinics. Watch out for writing like this.
And, if you see it, get them some professional help.
Just to contrast, if you have every seen a true saint - Mother
Theresa or Gandhi --- there writing is full of peace, love, trust,
and compassion. Therefore, it isn't people religious beliefs
that make them the way they are. It is their choices about how
they allow their religion to form their personal beliefs about
themselves and the world.
