User:QIM

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"QIM" is the internet handle for Tom Smith. It derives from a spiritual project Tom did with autistics using Facilitated Communication FC in the early 1990s which produced a book they named "QIM/QIM Tunes". It's an acronym for "The Source I aM", with "Q" coming from the German word "quelle" meaning "Source". It's frequently used to describe the suspected source document, Q document, for the books of the New Testament.

My work on the net can be found linked below. The first two links are well established discussion groups that I own and the other two are writings on men and autism:

American Union of Men
