If she's preaching it as a practical thing, she should have a practical means of achieving it.

I HAVE NEVER "PREACHED" ANYTHING OF THE SORT.

Lazarus - You and I have our differences, but I do think you are smart enough to understand quickly what is taking Vitas days, to the dismay of the thread.

Here is the issue:

Vitas asked me a question:
1. how are you rationally and practically going to ACHIEVE non-violence

To which I replied:
What is this "non-violence"? Ghandi-like passive resistance? Tibetan philosophy of life? What?

You may have talked to other people on this topic but I do not know the context.

I have nothing against answering his question if he can be so kind as to say what he means by it because I HAVE NEVER CLAIMED ANYTHING OF THE SORT.

Please explain this to Vitas. I have no more patience left for this.

someone once told me, 'there will never be peace until there is one man left.' i thought that to be the truth then years later related the same to someone else... he paused and said, 'actually, even if there were but one man peace would not be guaranteed...'

this all has to do with my theory about booty....

let's face it... we grind each other into dust... sometimes we do it with smiles on our faces and the words 'civilization' or 'totally legal' or 'moral' on our lips but we do it all the same... sometimes we do it for no reason at all but the rest of the time we do it for ... the booty...

of course any more we like to pretend we're so polite... so instead of booty we pretend to be fighting for 'democracy'

She's not preaching any such thing.
