Allan from Fallbrook
Participantgandalf: Edmund Burke, baby: “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing”.
I do agree with the need to do battle, but you can also wage war (as TemekuT says) with the rapier, rather than a bazooka.
Rock on, brother.

ParticipantTemekuT: Now you’ve gone off the rails! Great movie, though.
I love Billy Crystal and Carol Kane in the “Miracle Max” scene. The MLT (mutton, lettuce and tomato) riff still cracks me up.
So who in our motley assemblage gets to play The Dread Pirate Roberts?

Participantgandalf: Well, I don’t think white Christians and aboriginals have mixed well at all, and not just here in America. You look at the various colonial and neo-colonial powers, and the record does indeed speak for itself.
In the case of the Indians here in the US, this might sound brutal, but they were pretty much in the way. They were literally on the tracks when the train came through.
I think whether it’s religious or secular, raw power is completely efficient and totally ruthless in seeking it’s own ends. Dress it up however you want, but the bottom line remains the same: “God is on the side of the big battalions”.

ParticipantTemekuT: Well said. Rapier? I like it. Fits our rather swashbuckling crew, don’t you think?
For some reason, I now have the accounting pirates of The Crimson Permanent Assurance (Monty Python’s “Meaning of Life”) stuck in my head. It is getting late and the hamster has clearly jumped clear of the wheel!
