Re: I have argued for many years
@ LucreLout, my justification for what!
Perhaps we could agree that a man who was a terrorist and become a president is better than a man who become a president and a terrorist.
The rewriting of history I think you should ponder a bit deeper. History written very shortly after events is written with very tight trousers and without even the slightest thought of trying on somebody elses.
History written before history is history is called propaganda.
If you try to write about Roman history to day, it's not about tight trosers but the problem of finding any from that time with any voice left. Spot the trend.
Kudos to Oliver Stone for "The Untold History of the United States" that is not about something far ago, but already it is obvious that more voices are needed to understand that time.
As for writing about history you can of course write in a "train-time-table" way.
Man walks from A at: and is a B at:. But that is worthless if you don't ask why Man decided to walk from A to B and why he was at A in the first place. And, is it not funny, while when we cannot decide on our color, gender, day of birth, religion, country, native tongue..... then thouse things are more or less always the ones we are so eager to fight about.
I have faith, I suppose somebody would call me an atheist, but I dont like any stamps on my forehead, a bit like having a postal code on your forehead. I gave up on religion, none of any interest. I decided not to bother creating any new Gods, and sertainly non in my image. Leave that to the Americans, just kidding, I hope that period is ower. And I decided not to adopt any of the previous inventions. And look at the heavens, harp playing, no, a large amount of virgins, no thanks, tried once, it was awful. Walhalla not so bad, a sort of a wordly spin to that venue. You go out in the morning to fight. And in the evening sexy women put jour limbs together and there is food boose fucking and all the best in the world, no mention about eternal life, as you would be a fool if you didn't get it. Lately I have, however, become slitgly suspicious, are they perhaps pulling my leg. On the other hand the world goes forward, and if perhaps sports has replaced the bloody bart of the fighting, I might apply.
Not that I can find them on Facebook any more, Have they given up against the Mormoruuns, perhaps.
Which remains me, no need, or beliefe in a planet of my own either, no servants in that deal I think.
And before I am vividly corrected regarding heavens, I am on vacation, all manuals regarding heavens forgotten at home and a laptop, not of my own, with a spell checker of dubious character.
No, I think we should more consentrate on to days election promises than on all those old ones.
I was about to forget about the hells, rather boring, not much to choose from. I belive that when the church was able to create hell on earth for the opposition the creative energy regarding hell flopped.
Colour, the best I can manage in that respect is pink, with some tweeking, long ago, it was slightly better.
But soon as you think you won because of it, there you go. Dropping your trousers and you are exposed.
Trying to chear you up a bit, I am told that, on the other hand, the favorite colour among those who are tweeking the colour of their arse is indeed towards white.
I have given up on colour. There are more important things.
Country, trawel, the more the better. Looking out the window, there is one of many good countries. And lets not drop the "o".
Language, first there is one, then add some more, the moore the better. The best language in the world is the one you choose to be the best.
Take care, regards Lars
