I wasn't necessarily calling you a yuppie but regardless I'm tired of white comfortable baby-boomers 'dabbling' in religions that they only have knowledge of from B&N bestsellers. As a Keetowah (betcha didn't know I was Tsalagi, and a heathen in the truest sense of the work =P) the most irritating thing is the horde of white fuckers who are interested in a puddle-depth understanding of the culture and then run off and exclaim they're Keetowah to all their friends. To those who here are "Buddhist," I ask, who have you studied with and for how long?<hr size="1" /></blockquote><span class='postcolor'>
Ooh, ooh, more semantics. A heathen is a follower of Norse ways, not pagan ways. It comes from the Icelandic word Headen (well its not a d but the letter aint on my keyboard and your kidding if you think i'm gonna look into character map). They have no word for pagan, but heathen is it closest equivalent. And so, heathen is a norse pagan; an Asatru or Odinist.
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
