In a word ownership. The 6emini is correct those with power define "ownership".... " If I were asked to answer the following question: What is slavery? and I should answer in one word, It is murder!, my meaning would be understood at once. No extended argument would be required to show that the power to remove a man's mind, will, and personality, is the power of life and death, and that it makes a man a slave. It is murder. Why, then, to this other question: What is property? may I not likewise answer, It is robbery!, without the certainty of being misunderstood; the second proposition being no other than a transformation of the first?
*Is Abaddon to be feared?* My argument is no. I'm interested in knowing the origin of the cited scripture. Or is it scripture? It looks like it may be another person's version of the scripture which comes across as... It feels evil and foreboding. I have 2 sources that paint a different picture. In biblical text the apostle John translated the Hebrew word Abaddon to Greek which is Apollyon. Apollyon means “Destroyer,” and is given as the name of “the angel of the abyss.” Though most reference works apply this name to some evil person or entity, the whole setting of the apocalyptic vision in Revelation is to the contrary.

The Interpreter’s Bible says: “Abaddon, however, is an angel not of Satan but of God, performing his work of destruction at God’s bidding.” It wasn't until the 19th century that the 'angel of the a...
Kalash of Cultures - Pakistan: http://youtu.be/qEXnEfdvv6s The argument: 1. Watch the video; this Dardic mountain tribe plays polo. They fiercely fought for their independence through the ages, till the British arrived; at which point they adopted some British customs like playing polo on weekends (although they claim they invented the game first). 2. The Kalasha have lived in geographic isolation for so long that their DNA has diverged. But, there are markers to suggest that they come from around the Mediterranean(that is, that they are Dardic). There are 2 theories as to how they got there: a. They were travellers along the silk route who decided to settle in a scenic location and sell spices, apricots and cherries (the latter two do not grow in the subcontinent, only in the Mediterranean; and with no contact with the outside world for centuries, there's no other way they could've gotten these fruits) b. They are descendants of Alexander the Great 's armies; who ref...
EDIT: I'll change this to the appropriate location if this doesn't belong here. SO, I'm curious to ask: Dr. Edgar Allan Wright revealed his thoughts that Amaziah might be a 'prime artifact hunter'. I want to know, can we think of any individuals either within this Investigation or within human history that could also be Hunters, either operating for the 13MAGNUS or Anti-MAGNUS?
Motivation. Greed or Survival.
ReplyDeleteOwnership: if it's under the effective control of a person, if the object is taken, the taker is a thief, otherwise that person is a hunter.

ReplyDeleteThe value of what is taken.
ReplyDeleteIf you steal a loaf of bread you're a thief. If you steal a country you're a king.
If you kill something "less than" a person you're a hunter. If you kill a person, you're a (depending upon who you kill):
Murderer.
Hero.

When we scold our cat for stealing food from the table, we often laugh at the idea of him answering "But I don't believe in prooopeeerty".
ReplyDeleteFor him it really is hunting.
Theft is to deprive one of property. Hunting is to deprive one of life...the cat is scavenging not hunting.

ReplyDeleteWhen life is a pattern you can create at will. There is neither hunting nor theft. The eithics of it are what separates Shapers from N'zeer.
