[quote author=4D6C696A316B6A6363050 link=1233396606/19#19 date=1267988854]When I read something, the odd references stick in my head, and in L.B.s first post, his example of linear thinking involved pointing out that the libertarian party or the participants of this party were an example of linear thinking. It was odd as any political group who bases their dogma on a written document could have been used. Whats the maxim? inclusion of a specific thing equals exclusion of all others. Then as an example he used running around with out clothing as an illumination of the unwanted or "not common behavior" resulting in such a society lacking affinity in social norms. I just put the two together for humor as they were stuck in my head. Red amendment booth by George, staffed by L.B., with his ideas for drawing a crowd... naked libertarian dancers. I'd stop by and buy a book. This thread, by the way, really bothered me. I've just seen to many times the wheels come off any organization for the silliest reasons usually involving a harmless religious conversation. Take any restaurant as an example. Everyone frequents the establishment for the same thing, to take a break from their own kitchen and sit down and enjoy a meal. Everyone in the restaurant has spiritual beliefs, some may even open the little bible by the napkin dispenser while they are waiting for dinner. They might even have an intimate conversation, with the members of their own family, as they, from years of living with the man, immediately comprehend the 90% nonverbal communication of the family member, in addition to the verbal discussion. All is fine and dinner comes, it's good, paid, tipped, and everybody goes home to continue the conversation or not. The restaurant continues to function as it was meant to. Now let someone get up on top of the table and start preaching out of that little new testament by the napkin holder, and it all starts going sideways. The restaurant will eventually go out of business, because the word of such allowed behavior will spread, and customers will not return. Now the owner's business, passions, investment and worker's jobs are lost because one person thought that they knew what was right and took the quiet opportunity to, basically, tell everyone else that they are wrong on their beliefs. Even if those aren't the exact words, that is the message that will be heard. It's not about who's right, it's about the venue. Beliefs are such a founding percentage of identity. One would have better luck convincing someone else that their mother was a whore, than arguing them out of their belief structure. Everyone has their own beliefs, and EVERYONE thinks that their beliefs are right. I'm not a "can't we all just get along" guy either, but arguing facts with the facts only quantified relative to personal faith is pointless. I came here for the spaghetti. L.B. knows how to make spaghetti, everyone else is just pushing Chef Boyardee.[/quote]
