If someone has posted erroneously, there are kind ways to point that out. And if we disagree, sometimes it's just as well to disagree with our silence.
I'm just sayin'.

Big Jesus wrote: "One of the more embarrassing items making the internet/e-mail rounds is a sappy load of crap called 'The Paradox of Our Time.' The main problem I have with it is that as true as some of the expressed sentiments may be, who really cares? Certainly not me.
I figured out years ago that the human species is totally messed and has been for a long time. I also know that the sick, media-consumer culture in America continues to make this so-called problem worse. But the trick, folks, is not to give a care. Like me. I really don't care. I stopped worrying about all this temporal stuff a long time ago. It's meaningless.
Another problem I have with "Paradox" is that the ideas are all expressed in a sort of pseudo-spiritual, New-Age-y, 'Gee-whiz-can't-we-do-better-than-this' tone of voice. It's not only bad prose and poetry, it's weak philosophy. I hope I never sound like that.
