Why would somebody so afraid of society and evil corp use fascistbook?

Only Christian politicians have screwball opinions?

I find it a bit ironic that a person who doesn't have an inkling about how to behave like a Christian or how to properly treat other human beings would start a thread to do with Christianity. It would be akin to me starting a thread about life on the far side of the moon. :)

I see you're starting to dodge and weave now. That always happens when you finally figure out how silly you're acting. Congratulations, it took you a little less time than normal on this one.

fascistbook? I think you're making some assumptions and so can't speak to that.

wherever i sit down my ars
now it's willful ignorance, which may be worse.
I do find it fascinating that a man living in those times would have the ability to quote others who lived several hundred miles away, and several hundred years in the past, with no formal education nor access to information. Just food for thought at times .

Although, Hills Foods in Coquitlam (sells all kinds of game from Aligator to Musk Ox, no moose though, sigh) has a lovely ground game mix of ostrich 20%, bison 60% and kangaroo 20%. Just can't roast it, makes great burgers, sheppards pie, taco meat, etc.
With the 'roo' in there does it flip itself on the grill?

I recently heard a discussion on the radio with regards to the difference in listening styles between those who had to go to the record store to purchase their music and those who can download it at the click of the button.

They made mention that those who sought out the music at the store, were more likely to listen deeply to the record. The whole act of seeking, handing over hard earned money, etc increased the listening experience and possibly a deeper appreciation of the music.

Those that downloaded easily at the click of a button were more likely to passively listen to it and quite possibly skip past any songs they didn't like immediately. They would listen in their cars, while doing other work around the house etc. While those purchasing albums would most likely sit and listen.

I think maybe that sort of comparison speaks to what you were saying about quoting others who lived several miles away. The written word in book form that was as easily attainable as now would have been treasured, memorized, and passed on.

Rarity increases the value of things to people.

The deeper listening was probably from the fact they had to wait till the next payday to get some new tunes. The amount of time spent listening to music (in a month) would be the part that decides who is listening to 'deeper music'.

yep that was it. But it lead to a deeper appreciation of the music as well. It was an interesting listen for sure.
