exactly. peaceful TO nature, not LIKE the nature. human emotions are to be sublimed, as in art. nobody can achieve unity, so your complaint is pointless. believers/atheists, drug/anti drug --- hippies are human beings, therefore, quite different. it would be a religion, an ideology or whatnot if they would all be the same. they needed a break/brake from that society, that's way they took the civilization's ways and beliefs and countered them - and that's why they're so different amog themselves
The notion of peace these people allude to is one of human and political compromise, not the nihilistic statement that the only way for the human race to achieve some form of political peace is for all emotions to be eliminated. Are you suggesting lobotomys are the way forward? I guess you see 'raw emotion' as the driving force for most dodgy political idealogies, when I would say it is logic and emotions which together form the basis of all ideologies that insult humanity.
Actually, the word, "Hippie" was originated in the late 1900's. People would do heroin by going to a special house where they would pay their money, go into a room where there was a hip-height table with all the works laid out on the table.
Because people would get a little dizzy with the first rush of the drug, they would put their hip up on the table while shooting to steady themselves.
So "hippies" have actually been around since then.
Anyone who says they hate hippies are completely hypocritical because hippies didnt believe in hate at all. They did what they thought they needed to do to get there point across. It's something more americans should be doing.
Just because hippies didn't believe in hate (I doubt every single person living that life could be completely hate free, but there you go) it does not mean people are hypocrites for hating hippies. They would be hypocrites if they were a hippy that hated other hippies, but doing what some other faction disagrees with does not make a person who is not part of that faction a hypocrite, it makes them a critic.
@PunkHippie1971 In order for someone to be hypocritical they have to contradict their own beliefs not someone elses. In other words, you can't call someone a hypocrite for stating an opinion that contradicts someone elses beliefs. I agree with what you're saying and i know your hearts in the right direction, but your word usage was a little off.
"Pharmakeia is the Greek word for "Sorcery" in the Book of Revelation (Chapter 9). It connotes drug use mixed with witchcraft and sorcery. The Grateful Dead were originally called "The Warlocks". Prophecies of the Bible keep getting fulfilled qua postmodern times.
the bible is a ridiculous tale that was and is used to get control over people. it has no real value or affect on life and it shouldn't be referred to in any legitimate discussion. now, when it comes to hippies, well...how can you hate someone because they experiment with drugs? too afraid to try them and realize the truth yourself?
If you didn't live in the 1960s you don't know and never will know. You don't even know you don't know.
