Comparing and contrasting the 4 books of the new testament? They read identical but the insinuated power play each holds is different as is 'coded speak-a-fishish flibberdy jibber prose' for those that can decypher.
Joecroft: Surely you would agree that the so called “book of John”, has a lot more spiritual knowledge contained within it than the other 3…
Joecroft: Wait…you mean the Yoge books (aptly named) by William Walker Atkinson and the 21 lessons…? I haven’t got around to studying them yet…I’m still meditating on the Kabyalion… If you mean the secret doctrine, and other such similar sacred works; they’re kept by the Masons and other secret Mystery Schools. Those teachings are kept secret and only taught to those deemed ready to receive them…- JC

Kind of like how King Davids favorite friend was also a man named Jonathan IIRC.

Now I think my mental picture does not accurately image the thought experiment.
Without the human wielding words as weapons the words themselves would not fight of their own volition. No fight, no show.
