Wow - I had totally forgotten that scene.

Maybe the page intentionally left blank was the morals page...

Stiko, how does that view hold up against the homeless junkie who breaks into your house and threatens your children?

What action does seeing the Love in Everything prescribe for that?

It's not so much about seeing the love in everything, I never said that. Glad we're talking, though!

It is about deciding to act out of either love or fear. If you are being threatened, you may feel the fear, but the best reaction will not be just based on the fear, it will be based on the search for the best possible outcome.

That said, it may be best to kill the fucker. I never said it was a perfect approach, but it has a lot of reach and it's about as simple as you can get.

Quotes from piss-poor science fiction FTW.

Good news! I never read Herbert, I just walked past the Fear Factory cd once in my teens.

I just skimmed this topic so forgive me if I make a point which isn't wanted, or has already been said:

Bill Hicks had a nice premise for a moral code: That every social action is the result of a decision between love or fear.

I've always liked that, it seems to simplify all commandments of all religions down into one, without fine print or room for misinterpretation. If all your actions are based on the fact that we are all one, dogs, cats, humans, planets, stars, and the cannabis growing in the back yard of that guy on the news who the police are putting in gaol...y'know, EVERYTHING is the ONE THING and the eyes of love see that and if you act on that at all times, everything will be fine, but if you act in a certain way because you are afraid, then the bars of the BIP just get thicker and tighter and the illusion of solitary confinement strengthens in the minds of all...this is why we have gaybashings (or any war): fear (leading to hatred, like yoda says) of the unknown. Famine: fear that we won't have enough food for ourselves, so we hoard it...

Actually, maybe I should watch A New Hope with my son again. Those lasers are cool.

Thanks for your time, BIPsters.

Fear is the mindkiller.

Only just noticed and read the bip now.

Let me tell everyone among you who might care that I think it's very well-written.

It's also quite dark. It's funny how you can make an old goth like me feel like Barbie in comparison!

I'm off to write about smiles and lollipops now. Toodles!

Well, that adds to the universality - I'm in Australia most of the time, so my local holidays would be no use to a great portion of the global community. Glad to be of service!

We've been putting them out for the last few years, it gets harder each time to get art, so if you know anyone, tell them to start working/submitting stuff to my cabal for next year!

Okay - only 69 days left to send your submissions for next year's Kalendar. If you have any artwork which is vaguely Discordian, or know any artists who can whip something up, or even if you've seen something on the web and you'd like our cabal to do the legwork - please post in this thread or email kalendar{(AT]}kallisti.info!

Hope to see something out of you - we've got nuttin' t' speak of this time around!

*yay*

Such a brilliant job.

I've put your version on my site and like I said, you're a cuckoo now. There's no stopping you.

*CROSS-POSTED AT POEE.CO.UK*

I've been sitting on this game for over a year, meaning to getting around to finishing it and last night I just said FUCK IT - I'm uploading it to the web, I don't care if it's missing vital dotted lines for cutting and that the artwork is scrappy, it's the beta test version and now you lot are welcome to download it, print, assemble, play and hate me for ever.

http://www.kallisti.info

And any questions you have about assembly and gameplay, feel free to post them via this link. I have far too much negative crap going on in my life right now to make the project suffer any more delays. It's out there, it belongs to you now! Run with it! Tell me you can't figure out how to put it together! Tell me the gameplay sucks! Come up with ideas to improve it!

LOVE YOU ALL!
