I do believe your compass has fallen off the table - and become askewed. You ramble in so many directions, there seems to be no main focus.

(Please, let me defer, allow that I enter these threads for fun and games. After several days, or a week or two, I am taken as a serious pain-in-the-ass and hooted out of the arena.)

Your Compartmentation statement is essentially jelly. It says yes and it says no, not settling on either. Should War be Glorified because "we" did not have to do it? Or should it be hated, because we don't cotton to its morality?

It really doesn't say anything, does it?

And the Sierra Club/Chamber of Commerce struggle is wet sand when it comes to viewing Ultimate.

On going into space, to avoid the deterioration of everything that we know, it's like making another God - to answer questions that benumb us.

I still believe, Disney included, that you have hedged on the Glorification of Gore.

Victory (in War) Marches should be more dirge-like than Triumphant. Doesn't the phrase "Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition" give you any problem?

Can we admit that our psyches suck - you know, a bit. And that we are not as grand as we feel we are?

Do we have to make excuses to find War a friendly agent? Or can we possibly admit that it is a horror - and, thus, we are horrid?

How about Barbara Walters, rather than Winston Churchill, with the diarrhea? (I like the P. Jennings with the constipation - and would prefer not changing it.)
