    Nike wouldn't exploit anyone.

     

    So very funny.

     

    Quite a few writers have collaborated with Nike. Espo and Futura being a few.

     

    Whatever, at this point Nike IS graffiti.

    Hold up, nike is graffiti?

    a big piece of this story that is missing amoungst all of this banter is that tookie was nomanated multiple times for nobel peace prizes, tho denied everytime tookie was still fighting for peace up untill the last days. he wrote multiple chirldrens books denouncing gang violence and gang culture. and it was him who was responsible for the early 90's gang truce between the bloods and crips.

     

    what have you done with your life today......

     

    oh yea bitched and made racist remarks on an internet forum, doin big things in the world.

     

     

    he was nominated by the groups that support him though. so basically that means absolutely nothing. his childrens books didn't sell for shit, so you cant really use those as a reason to not kill a man like tookie. i think his best selling book sold about 500. I'm going to take this on a grander scale for a second, lets say hitler didnt kill himself and he had to go through several years of appeals and shit before he was killed by our or someone elses government. if he wrote a bunch of anti-genocide childrens books and the kkk and several nazi groups nominated him for the nobel peace prize, would you still be making that post?

     

    dammit, I was gonna say that.

    Its been fun having the freshman class around, but now you are permitted to leave - I grant thee a pardon...

    Fuck gide and all his wine swilling, new romantic, jerk friends.

     

    Fuck tookie, murder is murder. Dude was too stupid to get away with it. I like to be able to walk home and not have to worry about being shot for my sneakers.

     

    Fuck martyrdom.

    Had more to do with the creation of the middle class at the end of the feudal era in Europe. Read up on that if you want an answer.

     

    Sorry man, I know its a long period of time during which many changes had developed, I was after opinions rather than one definate answer.

     

    I would never suggest that atheistic philosphy alone was the advantage that allowed the west to become as advanced as it is today. (If that is the impression I gave, I applogise) ;)

     

     

    peace!

  3. :king: I am an atheist and a darwinist as such I recognise that man wrote all religeous texts for a reason. The ability to write 'truths' down has helped mankind a plethora of ways, resulting in our dominance as mamals.

     

    Like most well-adjusted human beings inhabiting this planet I feel the need to be progressive as well as cyclical, I have read alot of religious texts translated into english. I have yet to read the old testament in it's entireity.

     

    Just recently I have begun to read about agnosticism although that smacked of monolithesque science fiction and scientology.

     

    I went to an anglican-christian school, where I soon began to develop what I thought was a relationship with god. I used to do and say things, progressive things, that my christian god would have never condoned. I began to indulge in a thought process like this; I know god is everywhere and everything, I am sorry I am doing things that are not in the interest of god-fearing peoples. At which point I had an atheistic realisation, if man created god and not the other way around, then no justification for my behaiviour is called for, at least in god's eyes.

     

    I am not a nihlist (anymore). A stage of my life full of experimentation as far as drugs and sex go but I don't particularly want to talk about that stuff at length, psychedelica and internalism lead only to another world, described commonly as infinity or anarchy, which I was perfectly happy to continue with if only it weren't illegal. during this time I was running on base emotions, stolen cash and not much else.

     

    I am a racist in a sense that races and species have common characteristics and to not aknowlege them would be naive. I know that muslim speaking countries and english countries both share the phrase 'birds of a feather'.

     

    I aknowlege the power of ritual, but only in the pursuit of my prolonged existance would I indulge in it, I fear its not in my nature nor would I pursue it out of anything but pure necessity.

     

    I am a post-modernist with a twist of egoism, though I am sure as I continue to read more and more my veiw of the world will change radically still. The question of existentialism and morals is continually confusing at this point, I am sure it is for all peoples on a quest for enlightenment.

     

     

    Easier to grasp than the concept of god? I don't know.

     

     

    Side question; if arabic peoples created god first, which is generally accepted as the truth, how come western cultures created industrialism first? Surely the foundations of a great civilisation were there, what was the philosophical stumbling block that allowed western culture to shoot into the lead?

  4. If I recall correctly there is talk already going on in NZ right now. One of the earths most promising forms of natural energy.

     

     

    The theory was to find a pocket of rock just above the molten magma and use the heat as a source of energy (since volcano activity and earthquakes do little to the earths core temperature), having not read national geographic for a while I could not tell you how far along this whole process is right now. No doubt it's not in the foreseeable future. :rolleyes:

  5. Fuck yeah, that battle scene and the nude...

     

    haven't read comics since my childhood, I guess it made me take alot of formal work for granted.

     

     

    Got the first issue of rom, in a terrible condition, mind you.

  6. Around my way nike is known as 'the crime wave' any one wearing nike in the city is on the crime wave. Youth have long used a dress code to distinguish themselves from the crowd. Hats and hoodies are a sign that some one is up to no good. When I get in a friend's car I take my hat off because when wearing one in the car you are more likely to be pulled over.

    I got these. Standard low price model. tdk mp100's. They have a weak point on the bridge. Bit of electrical tape fixes it, They give a pretty good response.
