Anarchism. Individuals and communities freely associating without being ruled. Whether or not you think it's a viable societal solution, it is a valid effort. |

Anyone else hear "Taxman" in this?

After hearing some of Beck's Sampling revealed here on RP, I gotta wonder if *more* sounds I hear in his cuts are sampled

I am not disagreeing with you. But my point was the Tom Cruise's organization is not a religion. It has been rightly banned in Germany because it is deemed a criminal organization. I think Beck is most likely a victim, but at some point you have to wonder, Is he a perp like Cruise? I do not think the same of Christianity. I find it so sad that these talented artists are a part of this org (victims usually).
I will not sit by and let people defend it as a religion and cry "Bigotry".
I am no fan of religion, but that is not fair to legitimate religions.

Beck's first ever, 'Mop Hurdling' event was going very well, until it started to rain.

More akin to a cult thinks I, than a criminal organization. Mind you if they committ crimes they should be prosecuted. But mostly they are just a bunch of foolish believers in psuedo science. Of course I get most of my info on them from South Park. And I don't any problem watching Cruise or Travolta or Giovanni Ribisi (Beck's brother in law) on screen for that matter. And yeah I love Beck's music. |

Isn't that just another form of prejudice against a group with different socioeconomic views than yourself? When will the bigotry end? >sigh< Why can't we all — Mafioso, Scientologists and Music Lovers — just get along? (fwiw, RDO, I do like your post and thought it an excellent comparison. I'm just being annoying today because I'm anxious about something unrelated to this discussion and it's spilling over :) |
