MISTWOLF: sorry, here is a link. I had no problems accessing the file with a direct link, but this should fix the issue I hope. Sorry for the delay. wardenguide.txt Heads up...I am trying to learn javascript... I have a trial page if you want to look at it click here. Welcome to RiotForSoul. Working for change in mainstream political and religious thought, RFS is my site of self-expression. If you are looking for some new ideas on government, spirituality, culture, or anything else, you have come to the right place. With this site, I hope to change some minds and get people thinking and discussing. Look around, read some of my thoughts, feel free to respond. Hey, it is still a free country. I plan to keep it that way. Enjoy your stay at RFS. Use the Navigation Bar at the top and bottom of your screen to explore the different areas of RFS. E-mail me with your thoughts, visit some of my links. Hey—have some fun. Navigation Summary: home: that's here. not hard literature: read essays, poems, etc. links: links to some good pages music: links and info. on some good bands e-mail: contact RFS It is my view that, politically, we are allowing ourselves to be taken in by liars and manipulators, we are refusing to make wise decisions. Whether we are too lazy or too apathetic or just not knowledgabel enough, we have lost our once strong political interest. Most people don't bother to vote, and it seems that many that do make their decisions based on the candidate's appearence or rhetoric, and don't truly look at his or her views on important issues or past decisions and policies. Political elections should not be fashion contests, and the fact that many people have allowed them to become just that shows a serious problem. Who can honestly say they know their Representives in Congress and in their State Assemblies? I hear a lot of people talking—no, whining—about political issues, yet I see them doing very little about those issues. We are not going to solve our problems with whining and poster-boy politicians. If you want to see something done, then get involved. Vote, read, think. This country is (so far) a democracy. If you would like to remain free, you must also remain responsible. The focus on sciene in this culture has, no doubt, led to many great discoveries and advancements, allowing a greater quality of life for millions of people around the world. We now can live longer, healthier, and happier lives, thanks in great part to our constant scientific pushes. We have flown to the moon, creeped 7 miles under the waves, drilled miles and miles into the earth, we have cured polio, smallpox, malaria, and hosts of diseases once deadly, now all but mute in the modern world. We have found out how the human body works, how the brain operates. We know how far a given star is away from ourselves, and what chemicals are in its atmospher. In short, we our growing a massive and incredibly useful knowledge base about our world; and we call this knowledge base science. Yet science has a dark side. For it seems that as we have learned more and more, we have felt ourselves better and better, and many have come to beleive that science can explain everything. People have given up on the idea of God, on the idea of spirituality, based on the fact that they know how big the sun is and why we rotate around it. They have come to believe that because they know so much about their reality, their's must be the only reality. For some reason, so many people have decided there is no God, no soul, based on science. This is strange, as science has never, and never will, deal with anything but our reality, it cannot explain God or prove God's existence. Yet we seem to hope that we can prove it. Science has become the new accpeted religion, replacing older beliefs, though having little to do with spirituality. We cannot discard religion simply because we have figured out how this reality works. That, in of itself, is unscientific. |
