Welcome to the shores of despair, where I hold up a mirror of mankind's horrors and atrocities for the viewer's examination and reflection. I've had good friends leave me, unable to face the monstrosities I've accumulated here. Do not expect to leave with a smile on your face.

I collect heroes as well as villains, however - and both types merit examination.

There is no mercy here, no tolerance for deception, no allowance for propaganda. If you come here with any agenda other than truth and fact, I would advise you to leave, now, or have your own deceit thrown into the harsh glare of exposure.

propaganda defined here: http://dictionary.reference...

I don't play favorites, unless it's in my implacable hostility against liars, my bigotry against bigots, and my insistence at looking at all sides of any question, regardless of anybody's agenda. If you come away from my site and you're not both hating and liking different items in my playlists, then I have been remiss. C'est la vie...

Standard disclaimer:

Prolonged viewing of my channel is not recommended for the emotionally unstable or the chronically depressed. Even should you suffer from neither of these disorders, it is nonetheless recommended you keep the analgesics handy.

YOU CAN HELP MAKE A DIFFERENCE, JUST WITH A FEW MOUSE-CLICKS:

"If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world."
— J.R.R. Tolkien

"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion...conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."
— Robert Heinlein, Time Enough for Love

"Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance."
---Senator Robert F. Kennedy
June 6, 1966 (South Africa address)

WARNING to CHRISTIANS, MOSLEMS, JEWS, HINDUS, and ATHEISTS - Gnostic on board.

( I'd turn back, if I were you... )

If you are uncertain as to the definition, please look it up first - that would be the garden variety, which I am NOT. Apply the Greek meaning of the word, discard the historic lore, and you'll be fairly close to an accurate definition. If you are religious, you will find no solace, here. If you are an atheist, you will find no argument or debate, here. Genuine Gnosticism requires no argument, so I do not indulge in such. Neither do I proselytize in any way. My agenda should be clear from an examination of my page. I am amenable to answering questions, but there are some things I simply will not tell you, depending upon my impression of you.

Reality viewed in sharp relief. Truth with no propoganda. Fact with no Spin. There is no mercy for deception, trickery, lying, deceit.

"TRUTH, n. An ingenious compound of desirability and appearance. Discovery of truth is the sole purpose of philosophy, which is the most ancient occupation of the human mind and has a fair prospect of existing with increasing activity to the end of time. "
---Ambrose Bierce, THE DEVIL'S DICTIONARY

I would love to dissolve this channel someday, when it is no longer necessary to have it around.

So far, I don't see any sign of that happening, however...
