"An anarchist book...  Why not a cook-book?"

Don't use it. Violence is a non-starter.  The Anarchist Cookbook is more hazardous to the pinhead making bombs from it , than the victim he's targeting because the bomb directions are faulty.

I wonder if they'd want anything from the anarchist Christian perspective? I know a lot of (most) anarchists are antagonistic to any religious beliefs whatsoever, but I am writing a book about the NAP from a Christian perspective (identifying the state as the Antichrist in the process) and an executive summary might go well with this project.

No disrespect intended, but I was considering submitting an essay discussing how fundamental religion could be seen as metaphysical totalitarianism. You know, replace the 'gun in the room' with 'hellfire in eternity' type thing. 

It could be seen that way, unless one doesn't believe that God sends people to Hell. I'm doing more than arguing against the state from a Christian perspective; I'm also attacking the mainstream Christian doctrines which have helped the state to persist for so long.

You should submit it, I'd read it.  I have my article mostly written, but I'm not overly proud of it. It needs editing and more work, but I have other projects to work on right now.

Yes, don't post your article online so that just anybody could read it and comment.

We need to maintain an artificial hierarchy here with anarchir in charge.

Your comment confuses me. I'm not in charge of anything, especially a hierarchy.
