Advice? Looking for.....

by Xander in

okay, strange request.

what i'm looking for is 'traditional' oriental or classic music pieces remixed/modernized.

for example, several songs on linkin park's "reanimation" cd - the opening, krwlng, to a lesser extent [riff raff] and my{dsmbr kinda what i'm looking for.. (sorry for the limited example set, but it's only like the second time i've heard music like this, and i can't recall where i heard things like this first).. thoughts?

There is a song on Incubus' Morning View that sounds very Asian. I love it. I think it's called Aqueous Transmission, but I'm not sure.

i was going to add some thoughts to another thread, but it is now locked.

it took a long time to gather my nerve up to post a new topic, and i'll probably regret it, but i couldn't feel any crappier than i do today, (well, yes i could) so, whatever.. .

perhaps the following - taken from a book i've read a million times - will be of help to someone... yeah, it's another stupid trauma analysis ... however, if you've ever been a jehovah's witness, you have been traumatized, and no doubt must contend dearly with at least some afteraffects.

Truly, if not for your insight I might still be a JW. Even when we were active JWs, you pacified my conscience with words and actions of genuine compassion instead of regurgitating the WTBTS poisonous lies.

You are a wonderful woman...never ordinary (despite trying, I dont think either of us are capable of conformation ), never understood, never free of the hunt for a peaceful moment...but I love you and so do many others because of your gentle rebellion against that pervasive critical voice that lingers in the air and makes us feel like we are not good enough.

One day well silence it, and dangle in its place like drunken little fireflies with nowhere to go on a Saturday night. *Hugs That Say "I'm Going To Lay Down The Boundaries For A Bit To Show You How Much You Rock!"*

When does religion become myth?

by whyhideit in

in my time in school and college, i always enjoyed the study of ancient greek, roman, chinese, and native american myth.

yet at the same time we have beliefs in modern religions, such as christianity, that there is a heaven with jesus christ, jehovah, angels, the devil, and demons.

1500 years from now, will jesus christ be a myth.
