Explains Biblical principles of Economics with Biblical verses right next to it, and as conservative as you get. Me and my friend wanted to take this and put it on the internet because it explains economics

That's a great idea. You might talk to the originators, or rather the current owners (if you think it's older material) about serializing it -- breaking it up by topic, or tracks as you say. That could be a very good thing to do.

If it's old enough, you wouldn't even need to get permission, since at some point it becomes public domain, if the originator doesn't step up to renew his copyright at intervals. (If he copyrighted it, or his church copyrighted it, back in the 70's, they could have renewed a few times since then to keep the copyright current. I don't know for how long they can keep doing that, but copyrights can run quite a while. You'd need to check that unless you are just excerpting and relying on fair-use. You could do that.)

And yes, I didn't know that was out there, thanks for the link. Although I knew the Jehovah's Witnesses have been using comic-art presentation of topics they teach on, and spreading them around washaterias, for example, where I found their exposition of their vision of the Last Days. That was 35 years ago -- they put out The Watchtower, which was their comic-art periodical, on different subjects.

I’ve got his address don’t know how accurate it is, but it states in the book, the book should only copied for reviewing, though you could get away maybe with education issues... maybe. I know the ministry is still alive though. I wonder if I could convince them... (and maybe revamp the illustrations. They wouldn’t fit today’s generation.)
