Ok, let's see: we have reviews moderators, we have forum adiministrators, we have an adim team for all matters, we have reviewers, we have collaborators, we have teams for every sub-genre... I'm sure we have a cook somewhere in Dublin and a janitor somewhere in Birmingham... But where's the spiritual leader? Where's the moral authority who could oversee and lead the fellow Archivers through the path of peace and wisdom? Where's the one that can give counsel and words of advise?
After long, careful deliberations, I've decided to sacrifice myself at the stake and offer my services as SPIRITUAL COLLABORATOR for the ProgArchives cause... Don't be afraid, my work will be free, quiet, silent, nobody will ever find out what the other is saying; what you tell me in confidence I won't tell nobody, even if a Judge tries to use it in court (well, it would be the prosecutor actually).... So, what do you say?
It's time! Time for lighT! Time for joy! Time fdor the new SPIRITUAL COLLABORATOR AND MODERATOR!!!

Hey! What's this? What's this sudden, abrupt, violent, inadequate intrusion in my quest to gain my people's favor?
Mr. Cuncuna, you can be the MOTIVATOR for the site... That's what you'be been doing, like those books "How to succeed in life" or "Ten reasons your life is not as good as it could be" or anything by Chopra or Cuauhtemoc Sanchez.... Ok, you may be the site's INSPIRATIONAL COLLABORATOR... But please, leave faith and spiritual and, in general, higher maTTers To Those who have learned and Those who undersTand The real meaning behind things like life, deaTh, taxes and why people prefer Their meaT rare or well cooked....
"And He arriveth in a Time of Glory and joy
and people from all The world celebraTed
as the forces of evil he came To desTroy
and bring peace To Those relegaTed
From every one of the four corners
A guiding cavalier sings for you and me
As we can now stop being mourners
and Rejoice! As is The Time for The T!!"

Progarchives has become too nihilist. The spiritually enlightened ones should build a giant spaceship and fly to a faraway planet, to develop a highly advanced, spiritually guided civilization. When some Earth travelers find us, we may share our wisdom with Earthlings, but only to find ourselves oppressed. Blah blah blah, lots of marching, blah blah blah, eventually our wisdom will prevail over Earth too. Or something like that. -------------   |

Do we need a spiritual leader??? Sorry T, I appreciate your idea (maybe for some people is necessary) but I get into PA cause there's not such thing as this!!! I don't feel comfortable with people who name themselves as "spiritual leaders", "motivators", "trascendental minds who leads people thru the paths of life" and sh*t like that... ------------- ...

Burning tea? Just let it cool down a bit first, numbnuts!

BTW, saw a good documentary on Jonestown last night. What a sick, sick situation that was! Why are so many so easily hoodwinked into following an obviously deranged, paranoid psycho shyster with a messiah complex, like Jones (or Koresh)? (I guess there's no shortage of damaged, weak gullible idiots out there, who prefer someone else to do all of their thinking and decision-making for them.) "Well, my people, me and some of the boys just murdered the congressman, so let's all drink cyanide now." Duhhhhh.... okie-dokey!

You are living proof that those who wish to lead are usually the least qualified to to so. A person who truly understands spiritual principles knows it is best to lead by example. People don't respond to having things shoved down their throats.
True spirituality comes from within. Eliminate the distractions, and the right path will become clear. ------------- a.k.a. H.T. http://riekels.wordpress.com" rel="nofollow - http://riekels.wordpress.com |

T is a dental consonant, normally pronounced with a considerable pressure on the incisive teeth back surface. The continuous and consistent stress provoked by the exagerated pronunciation of T makes those teeth dislocate in an unnatural position.
Shortly: we don't want neither a rabbit-like spiritual leader, nor one with an orthodontic appliance.

That's wrong.... The ANTICHRIST would've chosen a better drink to get the party going... Instead of wine, he would've turn the water into some whisky, vodka, or even better, some aguardiente or some guarapo so that people could actually SIN, you know. The same with the fishes...What's that with turning 5 fishes into thousands? The Anti-Christ would've tunred those 5 fishes into.......more alcohol!!!! I insist: how come all this newcomers are getting the support I am not? -------------

Being the anti-christ, you would expect everything backwards, T. For example, water would walk over him, instead of bringing someone back from the dead, he would turn a healthy human being into a zombie, also, with the fishes, he would turn thousands of tasty fishes into nothing but a single tuna can, etc. Think about it for a while... the anti-T would be a badly drawn "L"... or one of those plastic brooms... ------------- ˇBeware of the Bee! |
