$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('JPL', 'I')'m not a Christian. But the quote stands on its own merits, IMHO, that's why I used it.
I think the quote is evil and stands for all that which is destorying the world (being overserious, underplayful, uptight, conquering, non-live-and-let-live SOB's.
Nothing against you personally though. Maybe it keeps you focused or something.

Hi Narz
You are incorrect (grin). The quote is against all that is artifical, trivial, live-for-today-and-bugger-tomorrow, throw-away, plastic shrink-wrapped, consumerist, 'burn-the-oil-now-'cos-who cares-about-tomorrow' society.
Mc'Donalds, basically. Big leering, plastic clown thing at the front gate with a painted smile and a big chip out of his butt that no-one fixed 'cos they cost three thousand bucks each to replace.
To get back to point, I have a lot of fun and laughter in my life, I just don't get it out of a tube dangling from the ceiling, or plastic clowns. 'Nuff said.
Bye!

That had that back 2,000 years ago? Who knew?
By the way, we can live carefree existences (like the animals do) and be as wasteful as we want, as long as our "waste" contributes to the Earth (is biodegradable). Well, probably not so much anymore, we've dug quite a hole for ourselves and now we have to fill it. Us humans seem to do that alot to ourselves, another symptom of Christianity IMO, or rather Christianity and it's "man is an cursed creation who must struggle & suffer" philosophy stems from the abandonment of a nomadic, mostly hunter-gatherer lifestyle (Ishmael by Dan Quinn is a good book on this subject).
Basically what I'm saying is that it's not either/or. We don't have to be either 24-hour party people or Cautious Cathy's who spend every hour working for the cause and never even think of waste. Man is the one who invented the idea of "waste" in the first place. Out in nature the more waste a species produces, the better, more waste = more food for the rest.

I'm sure you do, my man. I never said you were a Puritan. I'm sure you're a helluva guy & probably a good father to boot. Just saying, you should give yourself a break. Might as well enjoy computer games while we got 'em. Unless they ain't your bag, in which case I still don't see anything "disturbing" about them. Humans love recreation, game playing, simulations, etc. and have been creating them every since we had enough language to structure a play, had enough stones to play marbles & had enough bricks to build collosuems.
