to enigma_foundry:

we were well on our way to becoming a police state long before our favorite boogeyman struck on 9/11. bin laden simply accelerates the progress in that direction.

it is very sad really. we have debased so many of the institutions that educate, protect and preserve our freedoms. people really do not understand the philosophical underpinnings of those freedoms. frankly, i fear that in a few years we may well lose them all in this irrational quest for "security".

our quest to "be safe" will result in the destruction of what our Founding Fathers fought so hard give us -- freedom.

It is really depressing. The terrorist have won a large victory--they have transformed our society into an incipient police state.

Man, MikeT, you sure are on a philosophy rampage. For too long, you've denied yourself the pleasures of philosophical inquiry and the liberal arts after a gazillion hours of dry programming:)

For a man who claims that Jesus is his favorite philosopher, Bush sure does follow satanist Aleister Crowley's maxim "and do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law" more than any biblical teaching I know of...
