But they worship all that is new - fools ... Les Miserables beats Rent, the 300b tube beats any transistor. THIS is the voice of Synchronicity - Amplifying my voice.

Wordnik Word of the Day for October 05, 2017

ancientism

Favor to things ancient; the belief that ancient times were better than the present.

As men come to believe that the "long ago" was better than the "now," and the dead were better than the living, then philosophy must necessarily include a theory of degeneracy, which is a part of ancientism.Sketch of the Mythology of the North American Indians First Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology to the Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, 1879-80, Government Printing Office, Washington, 1881, pages 17-56

So ancientism is developed from accumulated life-experiences; by the growth of story in repeated narration; by the steadily increasing power of affirmatization, and by respect for the authority upon which the institutions of society are based; all accumulating as they come down the generations.Sketch of the Mythology of the North American Indians First Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology to the Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, 1879-80, Government Printing Office, Washington, 1881, pages 17-56

The word 'ancientism' comes from 'ancient' and '-ism'.

Fucking Ridiculous comment - does Donald Trump have any more power than this ??!! Dumb, dumb, dumb …

Then again, it is even dumber responding to obvious “click bait” ... so how do YOU feel about that? Respond below ...

Satan has to be the least effective bad guy in all of literature. Battling against the Creator of the Universe, he doesn’t even have the power to create a grain of sand. He has the power of… uh… subtle suggestion. That’s about it.

When I got out of prison, I decided to buy myself a cheapish present. It has just been delivered. What did I get? I want to write, and I LOVE anachronistic, old things - so I bought myself a sexy keyboard, which looks like a typewriter! I’m happier now than l should be for any material possession:) !! I’m going to allow myself that, for the moment ...

Self-Help books have always annoyed me.

Life is not self-help, it’s self-serve.

You can help yourself to anything,

Without helping yourself.

Yes it does, 20 kids are not worth more tha 1,024 adults ... or are they?.

If killing 20 little kids doesn’t change gun laws, it doesn’t matter how many adults get shot, it will never change.
