text: Non-conformity?\n\nAre you suggesting that chaos is a much better fashion statement than organization (although I firmly believe that chaos itself is an order.)\n\nAlthough I haven't seen the movie, a good friend of mine did and raised this same question to me. My response is now as it was then...\n\nThe major problem that we are facing as earthlings is our seeming inclination to NOT take responsiblity for our own actions. Because of our society's inability to do as such, we are left with one of two choices: 1) Let people do as they please and allow society to become a land of goons and selfish, self-righteous individuals who care not about their society... or 2) Control every facet of life so that people who choose not to make responsible decisions are made to pay...\n\nAgain, brother, the problem is not that people are unable to make their own decisions, it is that people don't appear to be willing to take responsiblity for those decisions, thus leading to other's distress...\n\nI believe, personally, from things that I have learned, encountered, and dealt with in this truly exciting experience that we call "Life," that freedom truly is free if we all assume it. However, people are not all alike and sadly, we are left to the majority of opinion controlling our society. Because of that, there are people who are left dissatisfied. \n\nThis dissatisfaction leads to unrest. Unrest of one, leads to manipulation of more to regain a sense of control to bring about change. From there comes the usage of the most controlling item to balance the scales (in this case MONEY). Once that is achieved, anyone with this sort of controlling factor will want to bring about changes in accordance with what they (and whoever else has assisted them in this monetary augmentation) want. Then you have the ongoing condition of our country soon to follow.\n\nIf you see, the situation went from what is good for the people, to what is good for the persons... \n\nThis, I believe, may have been the thinking behind the development of religious supremacy. If we all believe in one thing and are for one cause, then it is much more likely that we will succeed and progress. If we are all fighting as individuals with unwaivering and unforgiving beliefs, then we will hardly find any success that brings about a true progression. \n\nWhat is most frightening to me, is that it isn't the single belief in a single God or entity that is the key (it may be on a personal level, but is presently impossible at this time in the world on a global scale), it is the simple belief in the human condition and the acceptance and love of all of our earthling inhabitants that will bring about this free society.\n\nThings that are loved and cared for are hardly mistreated. If nothing is mistreated, nothing is offended, and nothing is erased. This is a very simple concept. \n\nIn the end, this sort of ideology does not request conformity, it incites appreciation of all and is ultimately our true road to freedom. \n\nHope that helps...
