I realized at that time that it was a dead end, but at least I was there, and continued to know people who regarded themselves as members. In truth, the Weatherman, and what their followers believed was utterly irrelevant to what was going on at the time, and is a hundred times more irrelevant now. But this absurd adventurist advocacy of violence on the part of two hundred people or less, in a movement that mobilized millions, is still tied around the necks of every liberal in the country, while Republicans feel free to deny any responsibility for the constant violence wreaked on their behalf today, and egged on by their President.Green Eaglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13477132834757467690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6436782247272162797.post-40423787438868805332020-06-10T09:04:28.871-04:002020-06-10T09:04:28.871-04:00Theologically, it all comes down to what you mean ...<i> Theologically, it all comes down to what you mean by the English word “God.” People would be amazed if they understood the venues in which this word can be understood, and of course from that definition would flow various possible assertions. </i><br /><br />Warning: “various assertions“ may include: racism... sexism... homophobia... advocacy of slavery... anti-Semitism... denial of evolution...

He said that one could wait for this to happen, but that it could be pushed through by violent revolution.<br /><br />The Weather Underground was trying to have such a revolution in order to try and secure a communist future for the US. Marx created a division out of labor and capital. Originally the emphasis was on helping people in labor to throw off their capitalist oppressors.<br /><br />Like most of the things Marx wanted, it simply did not happen. Today you are more likely to see laborers at a Trump rally. And the division between capital and labor has disappeared with things like pension plans invested in the stock and bond markets and middle class investment. Today everyone with any sense has a balanced view of capitalism and its possibilities.<br /><br />Groups like Antifa (which has its philosophical origins in former USSR satellite East Germany) understand that dividing the country by capitalism and labor no longer accurately portrays the reality. <br /><br />So they are using other devices to try and start a 'class' warfare. Polarizing blacks against whites, just as they have done with creating divisions by environmental mandates. With class conflict between labor and capitalism no longer being applicable, they have set out to find other avenues of division that can be exploited to try and hurt the American people and inspire their loyalty to ultra-leftist causes. It's really just the same old trick using different ponies.<br /><br />Fortunately, the American people no longer have a huge response to this trick because they've seen it all before. Still, you can get enough naive people and unlearned romantics to make a lot of street noise. Revolution is the opiate of the intellectual.<br /><br />Theologically, it all comes down to what you mean by the English word “God.” People would be amazed if they understood the venues in which this word can be understood, and of course from that definition would flow various possible assertions.<br /><br />Incidentally, in Timothy Leary's autobiography he said that the student movement in the US was trying to imitate the student movement in the Eastern Bloc countries. It failed, he said, because the people were already free.Formerly Amherstnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6436782247272162797.post-87397685106987902992020-06-07T11:30:23.863-04:002020-06-07T11:30:23.863-04:00There are no gods, only fairy tales.

Lying for Jesus is none less lying, is I deed taking the Lord's name in vain. They are damned by their own dog.Ten Bearshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11342911380840320087noreply@blogger.com
