The 1st Amendment
Hey Yo. Yea Yo. I’m exercising my First Amendment privileges here (at Archure.net); my rights to Tell It Like It Is, like I was taught by my teachers; but everyone did not make it to college, not everyone took Anthropology and Psychology, and not everyone attended Quaker School (Ben Franklin socialized with a bunch of Quakers, and was married to Ms. Reed who was a Quaker). So there may be a Difference of Opinion from people who watch TV and may have managed to make it thru high school, but have never picked up a non-fiction book since (they probably wont ever make it to this web page and these words here, they just heard tell, or sort of assumed or guessed, and may go into a frenzy over this vegetarian liberal hippie on the net; but our Founding Fathers had long hair, Jefferson wrote that he grew hemp, and Franklin wrote in his Autobiography at a later age, stating that he became a Vegetarian at age 16 (and left it as such)).
FORTUNATELY: The government Recognizes my 1st Amendment Privileges.
UNFORTUNATELY: THE PEOPLE of the United States of America, often do Not recognize their fellow Americans Right to voice their opinions. There’s never going to be a real America till The People start living up to the Bill of Rights, starting with and including the 1st Amendment. IT’S UP TO YOU.
Addendum (or heck, lets call it an Amendment):
We the People Need a Government. Anthropologist say that the Ancients who lived long before the Pyramids were built, were just as intelligent as we are today. The Sphinx was built first around 10,500 BC, only around 12,500 years ago. 40,000 years ago is just a drop in the evolutionary bucket, every generation is not smarter than the rest; and in fact, the Ancients were more intelligent back then than we are now. The average IQ of 100 has gone down, due to the fact that low IQ people, tend to have more children, while a few of us high IQ people manage to survive, somehow, in spite of it all; out cast and outnumbered, there is safety in numbers, and average IQ people tend to “flock together”, excluding people of extreme IQ’s. What can you do when your outnumbered by people way less intelligent than yourself? Hope and Pray?.
When I asked my Anthropology professor “Well, if mankind is no smarter than we were 20,000 years ago, then why did we go from horse and buggy to man on the moon from 1900 to 1969?”, and he replied: “Greater World Population Density, leading towards GREATER COMMUNICATIONS”. That’s why I’m Communicating here on the web, it’s the “New Evolution”. The Ancients lived in Anarchy, without government; and my professor said “We don’t know much about the ancients, except there is vast evidence of slavery and human sacrifice” (in spite of their brains being up to par), and they didn’t have a very good life expectancy (which was due to social ills, and environmental hazards, not due to our genes which allow us at least 84 year old life expectancy (longer if we care for ourselves; shorter if we eat at McDonalds and KFC. Franklins parents lived into their 80’s, as stated in his Autobiography).
MAIN POINT: So we need government (to keep us from reverting to the Anarchy that reigned 30,000 years ago), we need the 1st Amendment, and we need Health; so that’s what I am doing here at Archure.net, that and my Music (and Art). My Music comes First, that’s what life is all about. Music is enjoyment of life.
