So look at the list and tell us how many check marks you've collected. My friends in the Illuminati tell me that the number roughly correlates to one of Dante's levels of Hell. http://i.imgur.com/9O0a8c2.jpg Depending on precise definitions, I am currently at 10.
"The people who are regarded as moral luminaries are those who forgo ordinary pleasure themselves and find compensation in interfering with the pleasure of others" Bertrand Russell
I'm sure it surprises no one that I'm completely pure according to that list. Although, I have to admit that I used to dabble in video games... :redface:
I've read some of Mr.Russell's work. I generally agree with the points he makes, while being stuck shaking my head at the invalidity of the conclusions he draws from them. In the case of the quote above, it's so mind-numbingly stupid that I actually can't help but to lose some respect for his work. It's also irrelevent in that culture has changed so drastically since the days of Russell. The "moral illuminaries" of our day are the ones who pomote selfishness, egotism, agression, rebellion and wreckless abandon. Cuz, you know, freedomand stuff and YOLO and stuff and eff the world and stuff!! Tee hee, I'm such an awesome non-conformist, aren't I?
Well I'm not crazy about the list. If nothing else, anyone who lists the Trilateral Commission but doesn't include the Bilderberg Group is hiding something.
Does it hurt my cause that I watch Alex Jones? For the lulz, obviously, but that has to set me up for a stint in purgatory, no?
I agree completely. If people would just kill and eat more animals the world would be a better place.
HEY - I resemble that comment! By the way - I am at 20 from the list. I am proud to say I have never been to Burning Man but a coworkers friend went and I did see pictures.
