  1. sometimes i think they make this up... on Little Red Book Draws Government Attention · · Score: 1

    I've checked out every book in my school library by or about Nazis. I frequent both ultra-left and ultra-right wing politcal websites. and I have guns. I publish all kinds of seditious stuff all over the place, and I have never had a problem. Except with the British who think I am an IRA terrorist just becuase I know some. and they didn't bother me all that much.

  6. You didn't get the memo. Jesus was hard core. on Kansas Anti-Creationism Professor Resigns · · Score: 1
    The fact is, Jesus was hard core.

    1) the "overturning of the money changing tables" which seems so innoncent a protest:John 2:15 (King James Version)

    And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables;


    2) Jesus was all about having some weapons (Luke 23:36)

    Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.


    3) Jesus was a racial supremacist and only grudgingly helped inferior races (Mathew 15:24-28):

    But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 25Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me. 26But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs. 27And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table. 28Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.


    And don't even get started in on Revelations... then again, anyone can make the bible say anything. However, I think hippies foccus too much on the Sermon on the Mount. There is danger in taking something written specifically for one group of people at one point in time (for instance, Paul's epistols) and trying to draw broad generalizations and extrapolate "ultimate trancendent truths" about "the human condition" from any piece of art or literature, the bible included.
    There is a reason the Druids did not write anything down, though a great many of them could read or write in Greek and Latin. Once something is written down it cannot be changed. The ancient Europeans were more interested in knowledge and understanding than in retarded crap that infested us from that Eastern cesspool. Neitzche was right. Christianity is evil.

    The Greeks, Romans, Celts and Germans knew right well that the earth was round. Their gods were not all powerful. Celtic gods were only believed to help a person in sofar as they helped themselves. Of course, they did believe in auspices and fate and all that sort of stuff. But even their Gods were subject to fate. Plus, most pagan Gods are merely representations of things and ideas which actually exist in nature -- not super ultra outsiders which create all the rules. The Germanic Asir (Wotan et al) were to die at the end of time just like every human, not persist towards infinity.

    Christianity is something wholly alien to us. It's a disease. It made us stupid for a long time and is making us stupid again. Of course, the bible is fun to read after watching A Clockwork Orange -- it ads a fun perspective.

    of course, our current enemies live in caves. i think that computer viruses are the least of their worries. It's like durring Vietnam when they said "we're going to bomb them back to the stoneage." When a country is that backwards, all that means is "slap them back to next week." Face it, "cyberwarefare" is a bigger threat to the US than it is to "terrorists." No, against China...

    let me still feel good about life while i still can? I know that America is dying, that my generation (born in 1984) is the last one that's going to know anything at all about liberty, and even then, we didn't have much. I love my country, but I hate my government. fuck the damned patriot act, i'll say it right out in the open and i'll die for it if i have to. it's disgraceful, but short of an IRA-style bombing campaign, there isn't a lot we can do.

    they tried that with "punk" and "grunge." The effects were disaterous. As soon as "popular culture" gets ahold of something, it becomes little more than a fashion when it was once a way of life. Frankly, it's best if the major labels stay the hell away from the independent punk/hardcore/et cetera acts and they continue to make D.I.Y. a way of life for themselves and the fans in their local scenes. screw corporate music. Just look at Dropkick Murphys. They used to be hard-core bad-ass now they're just a flogging molly rip-off.

    well, the BSD one is reasonable. Clearly you can't just go out and work for MS or SCO.

  20. what i learned in school... on Megafauna Extinction Due to Climate · · Score: 1

    in my Romantic Movement in American Literature class (English major), the whole point of Whitman was "love your transience" (just because im an english major doesnt mean i can spell, ok? sorry if its off).

    Anyway, the fact is that the world is going to change for good or for ill and there isn't that much we can do about it. If we bitch and whine about the specled horned winged dragonfly squirl or some crap, then we're going to have to make sacrifices that are going to hurt people. However, we go around willie-nilly wasting shit we're going to hurt people. Fuck the squirl, it's about people. We can live without a lot of that "bio-diversity" just fine and you know it.

    why does it matter? of course there is the jurassic park "just becuase we could didn't mean we should" thing. It's riddiculous. Sure, we need to make the planet livable. But if Denmark sinks who cares if its because a commet hits or because of the v8 turbo desiel truck we use for work (working demolition/construction this summer)? Its going to happen. we can't stop it. We may be able to slow our effect, but it's going to happen anyway? Who's to say the outcome wont be better? Just because we like the map now doesn't mean it's always been that way (it hasn't been) or will be forever (it wont be).
