good morning.
For the C of I heads have a think about article 37 of the articles of Religion. Weird little Elizabethan trot into theocracy that it was.

Lads, I share your frustrations, hopes and fears but surely you can manifest them into something more constructive - an article? a poem? a song? a protest? a book? - Come on.. stop messing up the newswire - such ramblings make it look like some kind of open counselling service.

some kind of open counselling service.
????

that my friend is exactly what indymedia is.
it is open.
it counsels
and it is a service.

The Global "Episcopalian/Anglican" church is governed by its 39 articles of Religion. They alone unite the churches of England, Ireland, USA, Canada, South Africa etc.,
Not as many Irish people think Mrs Saxe Coburg Goethe Windsor.
Article 37 treats on the communality of property.
It is one of Western Cilivilisation´s first reactionary articles of faith.
It predates the laws that reacted to the Levellers proclamation of a Free Common Land on the 11th of September 16 something.
ask the English crusties they love that stuff.

Depp has been weighed in the balance and found wanting. The Angel of Daeath will be calling to see him on Saturday morning.

In a diagnosis that helps explain the confusing and
contradictory aspects of the cosmos that have baffled philosophers,
theologians, and other students of the human condition for millennia,
God,
creator of the universe and longtime deity to billions of followers,
was
found Monday to suffer from bipolar disorder.

isn´t it great what´s happening to psychiatry all the same.
Brill.
Sure not a century ago they were happily locking up young women for having unmarried sex in Ireland.
....great progress made there
are there appropriate representatives to articulate the shame?

first they were poor.

then they were alienated.

now they are socially excluded.

seems odd that you would visit the sins of the great great grandfather upon the relevant grandson as it were.

For such a love based poster, from the lighter side of the soul, you sure can bear a grudge.

Is Indymedia for counselling? I rather think not. A whole, and interesting argument, re objectivity and its place in reporting awaits.

Suffice to say, though I may be wrong, that passion and reportage have a balance with one another, and in disturbance of that balance, both are degraded. And this is, after all, a newswire. It is a podium with the ambition of particular characteristics. Something may well be worth saying - I could quote the whole of Leaves of Grass, or the Symposium, and defend utterly its edifying effects, but I would still be wrong to post it here.
