you are welcome!
I'm flattered to silence.
I watched the whole video with my entire family. Thank you.
So is this what "woo" is? I never heard that term before Mr. Cancer Wins used it.

beat me to it!
and with far less snark than i would have applied.
Because you didn't take the time to read, allow me to inform you, the video and following discussion had absolutely nothing to do with atheism.

thats exactly what i did.joining the navy helped but i have lived on 3 continents and multiple cities.it REALLY makes a difference on so many levels.
the downvotes dont make any sense to me really.
i applaud you my friend.
I lived there for 19 years. As far as I know it has only improved. I don't mind being down-voted for having wanted to and being proud of moving as far as possible away from my "home" as I possibly could. It's all about adventure and challenging concepts; getting out of your comfort zones; it paid off nicely. I doubt I would have found one of the most confounding experiences of the Universe that a human can have if I had not begun challenging everything I was taught in such a closed-off, conservative place. I grew up close to Amish country! It actually took some willpower in order to start shedding and rebuilding a lot of ideas about the way thing's actually work as opposed to the ways the media tells one how it works.

ah thank you for your kind words my friend.
much appreciated.
many here on this site of late appear to have acquired super powers and have the ability to discern my intentions.
which to my surprise are always egotistical in nature....the mind..it baffles.
the belittling,trolling and smug arrogance grates on my nerves and is so un-necessary.
all multiple forms of bullying i detest.
little kings..
in their little fiefdoms..
demanding respect while giving none.
i would chuckle if it were not so heart breaking.
but i am duty bound to stand up and point to the rot and the decay.
few ears listen and even rarer for a heart to be touched.
and even when i do that my words are ridiculed and dismissed.
corruption seeks to blind the seeker and deafen one who would listen.whispering always to the most intimate and despicable of our natures.
selfishness knows no bounds...it just wants more.
i am losing this battle.
my integrity..questioned.
my motivations...projected by those with lesser constitutions.
sacrifices ..all in vain,for naught but a harsh word and a suspicious glare.
as if i were the enemy.
where is the love?
the joy of creation and just being?
of connecting with another and rejoicing in that small moment of realization?
ah my friend,i struggle with those who choose pettiness over substance and to the absolute deafening roar of silence.the pervasive shadow of fear has infected and conquered more territory over the past year,seeping like a stain.
and the oblivious rejoice in their own ignorance.
thinking themselves clever.
doom has never before held such a beautiful and entrancing countenance.
we revel in our own stink and call it lovely.
dancing like macabre ghosts on a sterile landscape...
love and joy left long ago...
and we clap like monkeys and gleefully chatter as the noose is drawn tighter.
and the smell of death and fear grow stronger,but the allure of violence distracts us from our own emptiness.
what is it worth if there is no love?
ah..but this is why yours was/is so precious.
thank you my friend.
there is love,
and with that...
there is hope.
because i love you.

political and economic structures in complex societies is so...massive..that i tend to get lost in attempting to convey my point.
how do i tell trance that what he is actually suggesting is corporate tyranny?
how do you tell someone that and have them listen,when my examples are so weak and ineffectual.
ya know what..im gonna post a chomsky interview that covers much of our discussion.
hope people watch it because american libertarianism has a dark secret,and its abject slavery.
unless those libertarians know of some new democratic corporation that we heard of..never.
