This is not a political war or a money war. This is not a race war either. This is a war of spiritualality. This is why many people cannot agree on what issues demand the most attention.

I think that a free spirited, open mind is really what is under attack anymore. To the small group of christian people in power these days it is the biggest thing they fear. They do not want people to take religion into their own minds because then they cannot control it. And control is what all this is about.

An example of this is right in front of you. The Christians have attacked "hollywood" and its ability to entertain. Well lets be honest here, Hollywood is pretty much jewish. And well Jews have power over what we see and hear. I applaud this. The Small amount of christian politicians saw this as a threat and something they can use to thier advantage. (tipper,al gore even, lieberman). Why attack Elvis or Eminem? (depending on how you see it) Was the movie "MATRIX" a little close to home? Are Video games going to lead to violent hand eye cordination? Does the mix of heavy metal and rap music scare you? Does the Show "JACKASS" teach young middle american kids how to rebel? Does Art scare you that much?

This is just one example of how people in the church are losing their future generations to free spirited open minded ideas. Is this revalations? Prolly so.

Another example of this could be the way that reality television has emerged (survivor,mole,bigbrother, real world) and how reality is something that these conservative mind controling church goers fear. EXAMPLE: On the "REAL WORLD" on mtv a girl named julie renounced the mormon religion to millions of veiwers worldwide in a very effective way. But, not to be out done the mormon television leaders in salt lake city asked upn to stop giving blacks more than the appointed 2 hours of african american television space a week which led to the cancelling of the Hughleys television show. A direct relation? Maybe so.

Many people want to turn this into a race war. Especially religious people. The nazis are christians. Hitler was a christian. Dick Cheney is a christian. I see no difference at all. Cheney is hitler. Only he is much more a coward than hitler. He hides behind law and rhetoric.

Some christians cannot accept that many other people in this country have thier own relationship with god already. But, It isn't the way THEY want it. It is all about control and spirituality. They cannot control you if you have a free mind and this is what they fear the most. An entire generation of Xers have redefined what god and spirituality means to them and well, They dont even realize it. They have lost. The church has lost. They can no longer hide behind the bible and the church doors because only a few are there. They use it to thier own advantage. Not ours.

This is not going to stop them from trying to force thier way onto you or us. This is only going to make them try harder or just push the button.

Which brings me to "dubya". Millions of dollars were raised to put this christian man into office so that he could have utter CONTROL over the american people. On his third day in office, he allowed Church and state to be united. He gave government money to the church because the church can no longer keep its electricity paid. (What happened to candles?) This is an obvious point.

Now on his third week after russia "sank the sub" in honor of bill clintons blow job, Somehow (hmmmm) one of our subs Raises up to the challenge to sink an innocent japaneese fishing boat. (how else could you get media attention?) Speaking of media attention, How about the communications tower in moscow being torched? Kinda like al gore's attack on hollywood and communications. (hmmmm) And how about The hacking of microsoft days before the election by the russians? Perhaps so we could not have a computer run election? (hmmmm) Russia is just having some fun is all. We should thank them for thier help.

Not even a month after his inauguration, "Dubya" Picked up right where his oil loving, drug lord father left off by bombing or picking a fight with sadaam again. This only makes a dictator stronger. Now sadaam and the millions of starving people in iraq have even more to retaliate for. Wow We as americans do not stand for terrorist acts yet it is ok to do it ourselves huh?

Is this what christians do? Start wars and bully others around?

Have you ever seen "jerry springer"? Well my guess is that most of the people on that show Are god fearing bible belt trailer trash bush supporters.

Now what about the race war that ONLY the "insane christians and cowardly police" seem to be starting? It is total non-sense. Race is not the problem allthough it has alot to do with the current state of affairs. I am a young white guy and I see shit for what it is and a race war this is not. Only the people losing power would stoop so low.

As for money, Well did you see titanic? Sure you did. Well the upper class got on the lifeboats first in 1906. In 2001 the free spirited open minded people of the future are on the lifeboats now. And when the ship sinks it won't be you or me.

Never has the american government and media been so out of touch with its own people. It is a policed world and it is all because of the war hungry american Christian politics that this is happening.

I do not claim to be the smartest person in the world and I certainly do not have the answers but, I do however have some solutions to the problem.

First, the younger generation who have been ignored for the last time needs the older "steely dan" generation of the 60's to join the younger americans and start to see what we are asking for. Really it is the same thing you all had love ins in the 60's for. (remember that?) Before you sold your souls for possessions. The Generation of XYZ,ABCDE will be the leaders of this country someday in fact, in many ways we already are. So the Soccer mom democrats who fear everything under the sun need to stop being republicans and be more like the greens. It sucks to see the greens be so effective. So If you cant beat em join em!!

This generational war has to stop. Why? Because the younger agenda will eventually win. That is inevitable. Everything will and always does change. We have remarkable memory.

Second, There are so many causes to fight for. If the cause is not what you agree on then damn it all to hell!! This does not work. It is one cause and one cause only, FREEDOM! And this means globally.

Third, CReativity and the arts. We have to be even more creative in the future. Bringing drums to protests, Bringing entertainment to protests. Make better protest signs instead of shitty skribbles on cardboard.

These are just a few ideas of how I personally feel and if you read this I applaud you and thank you. I do not expect you to agree on all or any of this which is what my point is entirely. I would like to raise the integrity of topics and conversation here is all I mean.

What do I do to better the situation? Well Seeing the attack on music and its culture, I have equipped myself with turntables to dj music whereever I go to make sure it never goes away. Due to the corporate media I will never get the exposure for my music so I decided to make it more available than ever. (along with my Thousands of peers). Music is the most important thing in my life and I saw it as being my top priority. Thanks to dj's like me, music will be everywhere in the coming years. Music brings people together unlike religion, politics, and money.

So tell me what is your top priority?

PS. I do not play Steely dan nor condone its practices. In fact, I have never even heard of them untill the grammys.
