4 Mikey, this is the sysop of CBBS/Aloha. I'd like to feature 'back-issues' of BWMS on the modem section of CBBS/Aloha,

26 TO: ERIC O'BRIEN
|
|
27 HI ERIC, THOUGHT I WOULD TRY THIS BBS

29 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
|
|
30 LAISSE-FAIRE, MY FEELINGS ON KILLING ARE BEST SHOWN IN THE BOOK'S OF HARRY HARRI
|
|
31 SON(WE'LL SEE IF THAT STIRS UP SOMETHING ) REALLY, TRUE SELF DEFENSE(MURDER IN
|
|
32 HOT BLOOD)IN WHICH YOUR LIFE IS OBVIOUSLY IN DANGER, IS A FAR CRY FROM THE
|
|
33 MURDER THAT I MENTIONED. ASK THIS, WHAT ARE THE PRIMARY PURPOSE OF ARMIES?
|
|
34 DEFENSE? COME ON, IN A PEACEFUL WORLD?(ONE NOT IN A WORLD WAR)NO, ACTUALLY THE
|
|
35 REAL REASON IS TO MAINTAIN THE ILLUSION OF 'STRENGTH'(REAL OR OTHERWISE). AND
|
|
36 HOW IS THIS DONE? BY PUTTING A DIRECT THREAT OF DEATH ON SOMEONE OR SOME COUNTRY
|
|
37 NOW, TO ESTABLISH THIS THREAT, ONE NEEDS THE MECHANISIMS OF DEATH, GUNS, TANKS,
|
|
38 ETC. SO IT FOLLOWS THAT THE PRIMARY PURPOSE OF THE ARMY IS TO KILL PEOPLE(WHEN O
|
|
39 RDERED) ANYONE WHO GETS INVOLVED WITH AN ORGANIZATION LIKE THAT HAS MADE THE
|
|
40 DECISION THAT POSSIBLE MURDER BY ORDER IS THE PRICE TO PAY. SO, A SOLDIER HAS
|
|
41 (IN MY OPINION)MADE THE DECISION TO MURDER. THIS DECISION IS NOT THE SAME THAT
|
|
42 IS MADE WHEN A PERSON IS, SAY, ATTACKED BY A MUGGER. THEN, REFLEX TAKES OVER AND
|
|
43 THE INSTINCT TO SURVIVE TAKES PRECIDENCE. DO YOU SEE THE DIFFERENCE? PERSONALLY,
|
|
44 IF MY COUNTRY WERE INVADED(THE LOWER 48, NOT ALASKA OR HAWAII) I WOULD CHEERFULL
|
|
45 Y JOIN THE RESISTANCE AND BE KILLED. HOWEVER, THAT IS A DECISION OF SELF-DEFENSE
|
|
46 I FAVOR WASHINGTONS BRAND OF FOREIGN POLICY, KEEP TO YOURSELF. EVEN IF CANADA
|
|
47 AND MEXICO TURNED COMMUNIST, I WON'T FIGHT UNTIL THEY STEP OVER THE BORDER.
|
|
48 ALTHOUGH PEOPLE MAY ARGUE ABOUT U.S.'S INTERESTS, IN THE LONG RUN WE DONT NEED
|
|
49 ANYTHING THAT WE CANNOT GET FROM EITHER U.S. SOIL OR OUTER SPACE. FURTHER, IN
|
|
50 REGARDS TO THE BUDGET DEFICIT, BY FAR THE BULK OF U.S. TAX MONEY GOES OUT IN
|
|
51 TRANSFER PAYMENTS. I HAVE A COPY OF THE U.S. '82 BUDGET THAT I WILL POST ON THE
|
|
52 BOARD IF ANY CARE(ITS A BREAKDOWN BY SUBJECT)THAT WILL TAKE UP ABOUT 20-30 LINES
|

53 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++000000001TED++++++++++++++++++++++++
|
|
54 1TED: THE PURPOSE OF THE MILITARY FORCES OF THIS COUNTRY
|
|
55 IS TO ENFORCE FOREIGN POLICY. THE DUTY OF ANY MEMBER OF THE
|
|
56 MILITARY (REGARDLESS OF RANK) IS OBEDIENCE. THE EFFECTIVE RESULT
|
|
57 OF THIS IS TO PROTECT THIS COUNTRY AND IT'S CONCOMMITANT
|
|
58 IDEOLOGY, THE FREEDOMS WE HAVE THAT DO NOT EXIST IN SOME OTHER
|
|
59 COUNTRIES, IE THE BILL OF RIGHTS FREEDOM OF SPEECH, ASSEMBLY,
|
|
60 REDRESS, ETC,ETC, AS OUTLINED IN THE CONSTITUTION. WITHOUT AN EN-
|
|
61 FORCED FOREIGN POLICY, WE AMERICANS WOULD BE LEFT WITH TWO
|
|
62 ALTERNATIVES: LEARN TO SPEAK CHINESE, OR LEARN TO SPEAK RUSSIAN.
|
|
63 THE USSR INTENDS TO CONQUER THE WORLD. THEIR CHANCES OF DOING SO
|
|
64 INCREASE PROPORTIONALLY WITH THE PACIFIST QUOTIENT AMPLIFIED BY
|
|
65 THE GENERAL PUBLIC DISCONTENT WITH
|
|
66 THE BOTTOM LINE ORIENTED ABUSE OF THIS IDEOLOGY, PER PATRICK HENRY
|
|
67 :IS LIFE SO DEAR, OR PEACE SO SWEET AS TO BE PURCHASED AT THE
|
|
68 PRICE OF CHAINS AND SLAVERY---.
|
|
69 THE PROBLEM, THE REASON FOR THE PACIFISM SO INCREASINGLY EXTANT
|
|
70 IN AMERICA IS A COMBINATION OF THE "ME GENERATON", AND A LOSS
|
|
71 OF FAITH, TRUST IN OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS.AT THE ONSET OF OUR DIRECT INVOLVEMENT
|
|
72 IN WWII, THE PEOPLE "RALLIED ROUND THE FLAGPOLE", AND "WON" THAT WAR.
|
|
73 THIS PATRIOTISM FADED SOMEWHAT IN 1950, IN THE "POLICE ACTION"
|
|
74 IN KOREA, AND IT FAIRLY WELL FIZZELED DURING THE VIETNAM "CONFLICT"
|
|
75 PEOPLE ARE TIRED OF WAR. I IMAGINE THE TYPICAL RUSSIAN CITIZEN IS LIKEWISE TIRED
|
|
76 OF WAR. BUT THE POLITBURO AND THE
|
|
77 DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE (AND ALL THAT IS BEHIND THEM) APPARENTLY ARE NOT.
|
|
78 WAR IS THE NATURE OF MAN.(SUN TZU) AND WE SHALL ALWAYS HAVE THEM.
|
|
79 AND SO IT GOES-----.
|
|
80 COMMENT ON PIPERS ENTRY ABOUT VICTIMLESS CRIMES: YOU ARE (IN MY
|
|
81 OPINION) COMPLETELY RIGHT. EG PROSTITUTION, IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN
|
|
82 AND IT WILL ALWAYS BE. THE PROBLEM, AS HAS ALREADY BEEN STATED
|
|
83 IS THAT NOT ALL PROSTITUTES ARE "WILLING". THERE ARE TOO MANY
|
|
84 'HOOKERS' THAT HAVE BEEN FORCED INTO THEIR 'TRADE'. VICTIMS OF GREEDY PIMPS.
|
|
85 IF PROSTITUTION WERE TO BE LEGALIZED, AND REGULATED TO SOME EXTENT, AND BY ALL
|
|
86 MEANS TAXED! THE ECONOMY WOULD HAVE ONE HELLUVA NEW SOURCE OF
|
|
87 REVENUE, LAW ENFORCEMENT COULD
|
|
88 MORE EFFECTIVELY DEAL WITH OTHER CRIME, ETC, ETC. ONELAST
|
|
89 THOUGHT-SUICIDE. AND ON THIS, I CAN SPEAK FROM (ALMOST) EXPERIENCE.
|
|
90 I THINK ANYONE WHO HAS THE OPPOR-
|
|
91 TUNITY TO PREVENT SOMEONE FROM KILLING THEMSELVES SHOULD DO SO.
|
|
92 (INCLUDING SPECIFICALLY COPS.)
|
|
93 I TRIED IT ONCE. FOR REAL. SOMEONE 'SAVED' ME. SHE HAS MY ETERNAL GRATITUDE.
|
|
94 YOU SEE, SUICIDE IS LIKE THE DEATH PENALTY (TO WHICH I AM
|
|
95 UNALTERABLY OPPOSED). BOTH ARE TERRIBLY FINAL. THERE ARE NO
|
|
96 SECOND THOUGHTS, NO 'LATER'.THINK ABOUT ALL THIS.
|
|
97 I GUESS I SHOULDN'T HAVE TAKEN UP
|
|
98 SO MUCH SPACE, BUT I GET CARRIED AWAY. THE PHANTOM PHILOSOPHER

|
|
124 Just a quick note ... suicide attempts should be thwarted, yes indeed.
|
|
125
|
|
126 However, the attempt should not place the person who attempted the act open
|
|
127 to criminal prosecution. Unless I am mistaken, in many states a failed
|
|
128 suicide attempt can land you in prison. Could that be interpreted as an
|
|
129 incentive to succeed? Please correct me if I am not up to date on the law.
|
|
130 Frank -- I assume that your entry was the last on the last disk. I agree
|
|
131 with much of what you say, however I disagree that man is a herd animal.
|
|
132 Man is by nature an omnivore, and does indeed have some herding instincts,
|
|
133 however it is not unusual for rouge members of the species to prefer a
|
|
134 solitary existence. We have invented many means of social control to
|
|
135 reinforce the weak instincts that still drive us. It is difficult to tell where
|
|
136 these vague instincts end and social conditioning begins. An example of how
|
|
137 normal social conditioning can be erased is military basic training. Here,
|
|
138 young males are penned up together, conditioned to total obedience in a
|
|
139 bland and colorless environment, subjected to continuous regimentation that
|
|
140 elicits a belief that their individual worth is measured by others.
|
|
141 Unfortunately, any military man will tell you that a troop of green recruits
|
|
142 is nearly useless as a fighting force. To be a useful tool, they must be
|
|
143 blooded -- placed in the field under hostile fire -- kill and be killed.
|
|
144 This final breaking of the social taboos changes a raw recuit into a valuable
|
|
145 soldier. Once changed into a blindly obedient killer, the young male is now
|
|
146 controlled by a system set up to keep him rigidly controlled even after leaving
|
|
147 the service.
|
|
148 pppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp
|
|
149 PIPER: TRUE. BUT THEN TOTAL OBIDIENCE IS NECESSARY IF ANY
|
|
150 MILITARY UNIT IS TO FUNCTION AS A TEAM, 'WORK' TOGETHER, DEPEND
|
|
151 UPON EACHOTHER, ETC. ANALOGOUS TO A FOOTBALL TEAM---. AS I UNDER-
|
|
152 STAND IT, A PERSON WHO ATTEMPTS SUICIDE MIGHT BE HELD FOR PSY-
|
|
153 CHIATRIC OBSERVATION, AND UNDER
|
|
154 SOME CONDITIONS, KEPT AT SOME
|
|
155 FACILITY FOR THE MENTALLY ILL, IF IT IS BELIEVED THEY WILL CON-
|
|
156 TINUE TO BE DANGEROUS TO THEMSELVES, MAYBE. MORE LIKELY
|
|
157 THEY WILL SIMPLY BE RELEASED, AND REFERRED TO SOME MENTAL HEALTH ORGANIZATION
|
|
158 ON AN OUTPATIENT BASIS. ALMOST NEVER WOULD SUCH A PERSON BE SENT
|
|
159 TO PRISON. DO YOU REALLY PLAY THE PIPES? THE PHANTOM PHILOSOPHER

161 PIPER: Would not a suicide attempt be attempted murder ? Just

162 a passing thought, not really relevant.
|

163 I think legalizing prostitution and marijuana fall in
|
|
164 the same category. Both are going to happen anyway,
|
|
165 so why not at least make them safe and taxable ?

|
|
170 Suicide? Prostitution? Murder? Hmmmmm sounds the local, national and
|
|
171 international news being discussed here. While my usual blitherings may not
|
|
172 interest you here's a thought or two on said subjects:
|
|
173 1. Suicide is a crime, this is true. But the true Utopian would tell you it
|
|
174 is a noble gesture on the part of the individual to the whole of society.
|
|
175 Considering the world today, it's understandable that some folks feel lost
|
|
176 and have no where to turn to. I once quite seriously considered this "option"
|
|
177 and was fortunate enough to have had a friend who talked me down. It is a
|
|
178 thing that is not easily contemplated, there's so much you don't realise.
|
|
179 I recommend that anyone thinking about it call a friend, and if you can't
|
|
180 do that then wait for the sunrise and realise that you CAN make it through
|
|
181 another. I did.
|
|
182 2. I ALSO PREFER TO CLASS MURDER INTO TWO AREAS: ACTIVE AND PASSIVE.
|
|
183 MY BASIC PHILOSOPHY HAS ALWAYS BEEN: YOUR FREEDOM ENDS AT THE TIP OF MY
|
|
184 nose. Should a person murder wantonly, we should do our utmost to bring
|
|
185 him/her to justice. To me this means a death sentence. To kill because the
|
|
186 life of someone you love is endangered or your own self is put under duress
|
|
187 isn't a sin. You shouldn't be punished for surviving. Mankind has been doing
|
|
188 it for few centuries and as whole I say that wev'e not gone down the tubes
|
|
189 yet.
|
|
190 3. As for national defense and ARMIES being there for the expressed purpose
|
|
191 of murder. Obviously you haven't read the newspaper lately. I usualy adhere
|
|
192 to the rule of "Believe half of what you see and nothing of what you hear"
|
|
193 WHEN IT COMES TO POLITICS AND SUCH, BUT I CAN'T HELP NOTING THAT, WHILE THE
|
|
194 "ENEMY" has amassed great quanities of arms, ammunition and militia he has
|
|
195 made no attempt to usurp our borders. This is due in a large part to the
|
|
196 armed forces of our nation. The key to defense is that it's ready, willing
|
|
197 and waitng.(at least, I hope it is) Without our trained"killers" you and
|
|
198 i might not exist now. Or if we did it would either be goose step city or
|
|
199 A SLAVE LABOR CAMP. I'M NOT ONE TO RATTLE SABERS, BUT I DO FEEL IT'S OUR
|
|
200 best bet for now.

203 BW is looking great. I don't know how to reply. Anyway, as people are
|
|
204 talking about contempleting suicide, I think I'll add a statistic. 60%
|
|
205 of all persons surveyed at least contempleted suicide in the last month.
|
|
206 We all have our down times when we feel as if we would like to no longer
|
|
207 continue to live. A suicidal person might be enjoying life a week later.
|

|
|
224 WAR:What is preventing Russia from taking over things like Sweden? The U.S.
|
|
225 of course, there must be a deterant force, be it trained killers or missiles.
|
|
226 My first wife went into the army thinking that she would be back in a year
|
|
227 or two. They turned her into a trained killer and now that she is back,
|
|
228 she is so alien to me that it hurts to be around her. I am in favor of the
|
|
229 mechanical deterants rather then the foot solder.
|
|
230 On prostitution and dope:in Nevada, it is legal
|
|
231 and nobody can complane about it, her it is illeagal and thats all they can do.
|
|
232 Dope has been around sence the earliest civilizations, it was made illeagal
|
|
233 by the FDA when heroin and morphine were made prescription. When states figure
|
|
234 out that they can make BUCKS on dope, it will be legal.Also understand that I
|
|
235 use the stuff so I am biased.
|
|
236 suicide:I have worked in a hospital and seen people after they have been saved.
|
|
237 most are happy and joyous and a few keep at it untill they get it right.
|
|
238 One case that sticks in my mind was of this 17 year old male who was brought in
|
|
239 about once every week or 2 with ether his wrists slashed or with 50 or so
|
|
240 pills in him. Each time after we save him, he would be happy again.
|
|
241 one day he came close enough that he was clinicly dead for 2 miniuts. when we
|
|
242 told him this, he started crying and said that all he had wanted was the
|
|
243 feeling of somebody loving him. Kind of makes me wonder about this society.
|
|
244 Man as a pack animal:Yes, go to your avarage high school and see for yourself.
|
|
245 Piper: the above 17 year old lived alone, perhaps if he had given in to the herd
|
|
246 instinct he would not have had all that trouble.

|
247 Ninja(I think) I never saw the 82 budget, am I going blind?

248 All Nerders:Michael is holed up in Troutdale not far from my house with the

|
257 The problem with "mechanical" detterents is that they tend to be overkill
|
|
258 (we did not use nukes when Afghanistan was invaded, when KAL 007 was shot down,
|
|
259 etc). We have, in fact, relied on our nuclear arsenal so heavily that we CANNOT
|
|
260 win if we don't use it! If the Soviets & Eastern Bloc countries were to invade
|
|
261 Germany we could either try to delay them (a week at MOST!) or we could
|
|
262 "go nuclear". If we took the latter course, THEY WOULD LAUNCH A FULL SCALE
|
|
263 NUCLEAR ATTACK ON THE U.S.
|
|
264 The nuclear arsenal is ONLY useful for:
|
|
265 A. Launching a MASSIVE FIRST STRIKE, or
|
|
266 B. Discouraging them from launching a first strike on us.
|
|
267 Unfortunately, no one seems to see it that way. It is NOT a defense!
|
|
268 As I mentioned above, we CANNOT win a convential war. We can't even
|
|
269 FIGHT one for more than a couple of weeks! (lack of supplies) We can't try to
|
|
270 train people and produce supplies AFTER the war starts because training a
|
|
271 "dumb footslogger" takes longer than the war would last. (note: the only reason
|
|
272 we didn't run into this kind of thing in WWII was that Roosevelt had pushed the
|
|
273 "peacetime army" up to a high level of readiness & we were producing war
|
|
274 materials for Lend-Lease).
|
|
275 While I am not entirely sure I'd like it, I begin to think that
|
|
276 the Swiss have the right idea- EVERYONE goes through basic traing & "serves a
|
|
277 hitch".

301 Piper - The young male you speak of was rigidly controlled long
|
|
302 before he entered the service.
|
|
303 Penning people up, conditioning them to obedience in a
|
|
304 bland and colorless environment, and subjecting them to
|
|
305 continuous regimentation is a graphic description of our
|
|
306 educational system. Team sports, lining up to go to the bath-
|
|
307 room, rewards for good (acceptable) behavior, punishment for
|
|
308 violation of arbitrary rules, emphasis on learning facts rather
|
|
309 than thinking processes, are all manipulative techniques to
|
|
310 condition us for "the real world".
|
|
311 After all, the primary purpose of education is to
|
|
312 prepare us for the blind obedience required of American
|
|
313 corporate culture or the military. It has nothing to do with
|
|
314 teaching people to think, to create, or to function
|
|
315 teaching people to think, to create, or to function
|
|
316 independently. It is purely a process of socialization and
|
|
317 acculturation.
|
|
318 It is the awesome power of the herd instinct that forces
|
|
319 us to bow to the whims of society. If you seriously doubt the
|
|
320 power of this primal instinct test it, try isolating yourself
|
|
321 from society for a year. I'm not talking about going off by
|
|
322 yourself for awhile, I'm talking total isolation. No books, no
|
|
323 magazines, no television, no radio, no telephone, no human
|
|
324 contact of any kind. You'll discover just how powerful social
|
|
325 needs are to the herd animal.
|
|
326 If that seems too drastic try going without sexual
|
|
327 satisfaction for a year. I imagine those "vague instincts"
|
|
328 won't seem so vague anymore. After all, it's not nice to fool
|
|
329 mother nature.

|
|
386 ppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp
|
|
387 Frank- I believe you are confusing you social conditioning with your
|
|
388 instincts. MiG - likewise with the H.S. crew. Speaking from personal
|
|
389 experience, living for years without other human contact is not difficult
|
|
390 if you are comfortable with yourself and your own belief set. The first
|
|
391 month is diffucult, the second month much more pleasant, and should a
|
|
392 hapless traveller come through several months later, it can be quite
|
|
393 difficult to be pleasant -- the urge is to shout and throw stones.
|
|
394 The sexual urge is also largely planted by social conditioning. It
|
|
395 drops to a quite acceptable level if not exited by advertising, display,
|
|
396 or availability. (Someone once remarked to me that sex is the most
|
|
397 overrated sensation in the world -- the most underrated is a good BM.)
|
|
398 I would agree that mankind tends to be a pack rather than a herd
|
|
399 animal. Although man is an omnivore, rather than a pure carnivore or
|
|
400 herbivore, the tendency to band together and attack is quite strong.
|
|
401 About conditioning young males and schools -- there is merit in what
|
|
402 you say. Schools are not designed to teach students how to think, except
|
|
403 incidentally. They exist as social balance wheels, giving all members
|
|
404 of a society a common experience and instilling many of the socially
|
|
405 "acceptable" habits. Example. In the 9th grade (4 yr high school) I
|
|
406 had my hair rumpled before coming to English class. The teacher presented
|
|
407 me with a comb in front of the class. (My reaction? I kept the comb
|
|
408 for the full 3 1/2 remaining years and did not comb my hair again until
|
|
409 I had been out for nearly three years.) I consider myself somewhat
|
|
410 abnormal in that I have replaced much social conditioning with my own
|
|
411 intentionally instilled conditioning. However, I have left much of
|
|
412 the underlaying social conditioning intact, as it has great survival value
|
|
413 in our present society.
|
|
414 To the one who inquired -- Yes, I do indeed play (or at least play at)
|
|
415 the pipes. After several hours it induces a feeling of great philosophical
|
|
416 calm that I have been unable to achieve in any other way. The bass drone
|
|
417 seems to create a primal OM that does strange things while sustained.

|

421 Pack animal? What is man? A truly perplexing question in light of our so
|
|
422 called world situation. I propose that man was nothing more than a step
|
|
423 in natures quest for a more "flexible" species. While I'm not saying that
|
|
424 humanity is the end product, I will say that we have managed to change
|
|
425 ourselves and those factors which affect our SURVIVAL (shelter, food and
|
|
426 so forth) as race. For all this hoopla though, I still can't see why we
|
|
427 aren't under a more centralized world government, make that really big
|
|
428 leap (sorry Ed) and take over our section of the solar system. Space is
|
|
429 where it's at, and that's where we should be. Imagine the possibilties:
|
|
430 new medicines, metals, unlimited living space, and the list could go on
|
|
431 forever. It's time to quit fighting over this little dustball and go for
|
|
432 the big one. Galactic pioneering, anyone?

434 [*=*] PIPER: MOST INTERESTING ENTRY. HAVE YOU READ THOREAU, ON
|
|
435 OF MY "HEROS"? MAN IS INDEED A SOCIAL CREATURE, FEW OF WHOM CAN
|
|
436 SEEM TO FUNCTION WITHOUT OTHERS AROUND THEM. EG, IF YOU HAVE EVER
|
|
437 FLOWN OVER A HIGHWAY IN A SMALL AIRCRAFT, YOU MIGHT HAVE OBSERVED
|
|
438 HOW CARS, TRUCKS, ETC ALWAYS SEEM TO END UP IN 'STRINGS' RATHER
|
|
439 THAN ALONE. INTERESTING. WHAT IS DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND IS A TOTAL
|
|
440 WITHDRAWL FROM SOCIETY. MYSELF, I AM SOMEWHAT THAT WAY, MAINLY
|
|
441 BECAUSE I PREFER MY OWN COMPANY BUT I STILL NEED AND WANT TO BE
|
|
442 WITH PEOPLE SOMETIMES. COULD/WOULD YOU TEACH SOMEONE TO
|
|
443 PLAY THE PIPES? I HAVE WANTED TO
|
|
444 LEARN FOR A LONG TIME, BUT THE COST OF A GOOD SET OF PIPES IS
|
|
445 CONSIDERABLE---.

|
446 YOU MIGHT ALSO, FIND TWAINS LETTERS FROM THE EARTH INTERESTING.

|
|
449 Piper - I don't believe I'm confusing social conditioning with
|
|
450 instinct. Freud established that there were essentially two
|
|
451 fundemental instincts. Eros, the love or life instinct, and
|
|
452 Thanatos, the death or destruction instinct. This would seem
|
|
453 to imply that sexuality and violence (war) are written into our
|
|
454 biological life plan and are inevitable and eternal.
|
|
455 Instinct, as defined through the Freudian position, is
|
|
456 "Any set of responses, shown by a great majority of the members
|
|
457 of a species, that are associated together in time under
|
|
458 specified environmental conditions". I think this pretty well
|
|
459 establishes sexuality as an instinct. After all, if you can't
|
|
460 believe Freud who can you believe?
|
|
461 As to man being an omnivor, this is inconsistant with your
|
|
462 position that we are pack rather than herd animals. Pigs do not
|
|
463 run in packs.
|
|
464 As to your ability to run independently of the pack,
|
|
465 you have demonstrated that ability admirably. By the values of
|
|
466 the Backwater herd (perhaps in this instance pack would be more
|
|
467 appropriate) I am the sleeziest scum on the earth. Yet you
|
|
468 treat me with a certain respect. Considering that you socialize
|
|
469 with these folks I think you're demonstrating considerable
|
|
470 personal courage.
|
|
471 I couldn't help but notice that your recent entries have
|
|
472 been the most well conceived, intelligent, thoughtful responses
|
|
473 I've seen on Backwater. I think it's also commendable that you
|
|
474 seem to be the first person to see through what I'm doing. I'm
|
|
475 impressed.
|
|
476 Frank
|
|
477
|
|
478 P.S. - MIG: Thanks for your earlier acknowledgement of the
|
|
479 quality of my writing. It didn't go unnoticed.

|
|
482 Frank- Pigs do run in packs, when in the wild. The segregation
|
|
483 that man has placed on them has perhaps overcome their inherent
|
|
484 instincts in this environment.
|
|
485 I did not enter into the discussions about your sexual prefer-
|
|
486 ences as I thought it was probably a hoax. I do not agree with
|
|
487 you in that area, but that does not mean that you are 'the
|
|
488 sleeziest scum on Backwater'. I was under the impression that
|
|
489 we had once again banished personal attacks in favor of reasoned
|
|
490 arguments, but I see from Citizen of the World's entry that we
|
|
491 have not. I apologize for him, and extend my welcome to your
|
|
492 thoughtful replies.
|
|
493 I think that man is basically a loner, clinging to one or two
|
|
494 others naturally, and only becoming social of necessity. It
|
|
495 seems that the more crowded and close society comes, the worse
|
|
496 the situation becomes. In this century, radio, TV and the
|
|
497 communications sattelite have so narrowed the borders of the
|
|
498 world that an individual has no time to be alone anymore, not
|
|
499 even in his sleep. That is what I feel is driving us towards
|
|
500 mass insanity, and perhaps mass suicide. Unfortunate, but
|
|
501 apparently true from my perspective. I expect the Nuclear War
|
|
502 to occur, and probably within 20 years.
|
|
503
|
|
504 Sorry to all for the rambling. I am still in favor of a position
|
|
505 of defense to bargain from. (I know that is not wholly consistent,
|
|
506 but no one has shown me a better way that would still maintain
|
|
507 our freedom.)
