Well...I am slowly grasping this whole concept of the net. Although I seem to be getting some things wrong.

smiley - erm

RL things include walking in the rain to buy telephone extension cable things, talking on the phone, discovering Marilyn Manson's site, stressing about money, reading books, eating pasta, watching films and generally just functioning on a certain level...

I feel better about things right now. The hunt goes on...

SATURNINE! YOU'LL KNOW!!! smiley - wow

Marilyn Manson - what is he, in terms of beliefs?

Oh - just heard one of his songs. (I didn't like it much, my delicate ickle ears are prejudiced by the harmonies of classical music and über-sensitive to loud noise, to boot... thus, no night-clubs smiley - sadface) The one where, at the beginning, he talks about G-o-d being spelt d-r-u-g-s... And so: -

- is it pro-drugs, and thus pro-liberty?
- does it mean drugs are the modern God, and they limit our freedom?
- ...saying that the Biblical guys are out of their heads on something, and it ain't Jesus?
- ...implying that religion is the opiate of the masses?
- ...a subtle commentary on the nature of absolution? (Replace 'drugs' with 'God'.)
- ...or just trying to get up the backs of prudes? smiley - winkeye

Any thoughts? smiley - smiley

Marilyn Manson made some astute observations in the "Bowling for Columbine" Michael Moore film.

Couldn't find anything about him on that site, though I agree that it's pretty stupid to blame the reative Harlequins on his music. smiley - erm

Read thoroughly. If I give you information, it will only be my opinion...if you discover it for yourself, and think things through, then you'll get a much better overview... smiley - smiley

Of course, Im not going to add my opinion on Marilyn Manson, because Saturnine would hunt me down and kill me.
