Friday the 13th, 2015, another day of fragile life on planet earth. Paris. Us.
I read this argument a few years ago; I recall a discussion of religious fascism and how it would be the 21st century disease. How do we spin our dogmas into "justifiable" horror?
During the Taliban reign in Afghanistan (90's and probably resurfacing now), kite flying was against the law. Kite flying. Something airborne and lovely, prompted by a running body, a fragile human body loving its brief time on planet Earth. What is the essential motivation behind banning that? And relating to Friday, why target people eating, watching sports or listening to music?
Joy killing. If that is the "religious" motivation, it simply sucks in its stupidity and vanity.
We are all fragile, but strong enough.
Go fly your kites and defy the joy killers.
Love and kisses, really!
Joyce
