And here's more to why these people think the peace sign is actually a satanic symbol....oy...

yeah, i'm actually not a big beatles fan at all, but this book i read about the beach boys' pet sounds mentioned revolver a lot, so i decided to ... er ... "procure" it.

this story is pretty disgusting. if you let someone put up a peace sign, you'll have to let someone else put up a dissenting sign! FREE SPEECH O NOEZ!!!111

I KNEW cows were evil.

And Brian - my grandma would have a complete heart attack upon seeing a pentagram hanging in someone's house. For people who've never learned for themselves what these things are and what they mean - they end up believing what they're told - and more often than not their told those things are satanic.

When I was little my friend's mother told me to run from any house with one. I told my mother and she said that was horsesh*t.

Part of being a zealot is being dogmatic so fundamentalists just don't think critically about what they are told. They just believe what they're told by their ministers as if the info were handed down directly from God. I find that so frightening.

As for radicals, I've been one since I can remember...I still laugh at being called to the principal's office in high school for signing the letter "A" in my name as the Anarchy sign. My Mom went off on the principal for wasting her time with something so benign, And I still occassionally sign the letter "A" as the Anarchy sign just to po the squares & relig-a-tards in this hellhole town.

Speaking of Satanic and music, I watched thig special on Metal music on VH1 Classic the other night. It was quite fasciniating. Especially the Black Metal from Norway.

I still can't get behind actual practicing satanits

That one is too far ingrained into me...no way.

But yes, I find it frightening that many take what they're told as absolute truth...and don't bother to find any truth or real meaning behind it...sad.

And Carrie--you're a Decemberists fan?

What do you think of Revolver??

yeah, i like the decemberists! i only have picaresque and the tain, tho, so i haven't heard a lot of their stuff. i only got to hear a little bit of revolver before i got kicked off the other computer (mom's a whore). what i heard included eleanor rigby & yellow submarine, and who could dislike those? i'll try to listen to the rest tonight.

Eh Yellow Submarine isn't one of my favorites (but Ringo's stuff..though fun..is always the weakest). Picaresque is great - I just got their newest cd but I've yet to listen to it. They're just so different...I enjoy them

They were in Denver the night after Lindsey I was so mad that I missed them

Oh well...anyway..peace man

crack me up....They're as phony as all the hip-hop gang bangers & emo kids here in the States. Those "Black Metal" acts are the biggest poseurs in metal since the rap-metal bands of the late 90's/early 2000's ("Let's burn down a church to show how real we are"...Would it be better to make sure the church is full of people first?)

I prefer "Viking Metal" (With lyrics based off Norse history & mythology. Amon Amarth is my current favorite "Viking Metal" band) and melodic death metal (No Satanic lyrics!!! I love Opeth, Children of Bodom, Arch Enemy & Evergrey) over "Black Metal", though I do like Behemoth (Nothing stranger than being a black/death metal band from Poland!)

Yeah but they do burn down churches which really disturbed me. Oh and incidentally they picked Obituary as the most intense metal band.

the swastika is indian though. the native americans adopted it but its mainly known as a hindu symbol apart from the nazi association.

and laughed at the morons they showed who were proud of burning down a church.

However, Part of what they said made some sense to me, some of the people of the Scandanavian countries feel the Catholic Church was forced upon them and they (The youth) are finally retaliating by declaring war upon the church. Maybe because I live in Oklahoma I can understand their point, Since Christianity was forced upon the Native population up until the 1950's-But now the Native population's are finally rebelling and bringing back their beliefs (Along with their languages, which are almost extinct) which has the immoral majority up in arms-"Oh we gave those dirty savages Christ and now they denounce him...boo-hoo"

As for Obituary (From that haven of death bands Flor-i-DUH!!!), they used to be the heaviest/fastest band around...Now they sound as fast and as heavy as ME-tallica (That's ME as in "Lars, Lars, Lars")...Obituary's no longer the intense band as they were back in the height of their career in the late 80's/early 90's.
