A world where love is the standard currency, not the dollar. Not Christian love of course, that would be oppressive. No what we need is a sort of undefined, hippy 60s love based on who knows what that is largely defined by sex and only requires that we all throw aside whatever thoughts and opinions we might have and get with the program. Praise the Lord (not Jesus) I've seen the light.

Dripping with sarcasm these days, aren't we 70Chip?
You and I probably agree more than we disagree. I'm a proud capitalist pig. And I've got nothing against Christianity, I just don't want the tenents of it carried out by legislation that's all.
On our local talk radio station this morning they were talking about how small the British Navy is these days, that it's not nearly the size it once was. My first thought was, no shit -- what do they need with their own navy for when they've got the United States Navy to depend on? We're the ones charged with policing the world and being the chief warrior of NATO.
I look at oppression and tyranny throughout the world the same way I look at the poor or the "less fortunate" in our own country. Stop your bitching, get off your asses and help yourselves for once.
I have no unchosen obligations and I want to see everyone mind their own damn business.
