Hi, I need Lists of World: Religions, cults, sects, therapies,
philosophy, econimic and political systems etc
I need somebody to do some research and collate all this data into lists.
Wikepedia has a good source of - religions for instance but I need to
be able to paste the lists into a Word .doc. I have found a programme
that could convert html to txt but reckon there is much more
experience with you good people.
If you need any more info pls contact. I want this info but it is not
urgent but I need to know it is in hand and available in a few weeks.
What offers please?

Dear Lexham, 

Could you please explain if you'd like us to compile such lists
(and/or refer you to sites where such lists exist), or would you like
us to find ways to convert the existing lists that you've found to
.txt or .doc files?

I frequently write custom text-processing scripts for tasks such as
this. If you name a bunch of pages, I'll scrape them and put the word
lists into .txt and .doc format.

Hi,I do not want to do anything myself. I want the answer to the
question 'What are the past and present Religions, cults, sects,
therapies,
Philosophy, economic and political systems etc?'
I need the lists to be comprehensive i.e. all (or most) of the the
items categories past and present. They are to be in alphabetical
order for each category if easy or can discuss the order. I will then
want all the words to be muddled up into random order but this is not
to be a limiting factor at this stage.
I say 'etc' because I probably have omitted areas of inquiry. In fact
-psychological states could be added. eg dyslexia, depression,
schizophrenia...
Another is health systems  - Auyavedic, acupuncture...
What I am trying to get is what are/have been the main influences or
controls of humans on the planet.
This info will I am sure have been collated probably many times. It's
just finding it and putting it into a txt format BY YOU.
I am on Skype, French time, if that will help to discuss.
Thx BD

lexham-ga,

I think it might be possible to get the lists you are seeking...for,
Oh, a fee of five or ten thousand dollars!

I'm not joking.  You've asked an enormous, open-ended question, that
would take weeks and weeks of work to compile.

Please consider paring things down.  Why not start with a single
list...say, past and present religions.  Price it as you see fit, and
see what the researchers here can do.

Then you could post other questions on other topics -- cults,
therapies, etc --  as you see fit.

Let me know what you think of my suggestion.
