How Does A Scorpio Guy Kiss

Ensuring arms against the symbols

(*) The advantage of a news comment expired is having to gut its tendency, under penalty of talking about a dead body. This only applies when the news has not been repaid, or when it is not an isolated event. And it happens when it belongs to a genre, in this case of religions, beliefs and public realm.

The thing happened a few weeks ago. A judge, situated by the media and popular belief in the moral vanguard of a society, ejected from the room to a Muslim lawyer to bring a scarf covering her head in the exercise of its function. The question is under what it does as it does in the name of secularism, ie a set of rules and customs in force and socially accepted and practiced, as in France. But secularism is no state religion in Spain. So do not shed as lay representative because it can not refer to any standard adopted by reason, not faith circumstantial. Instead, break: the judge is an example of paganism in her country over religion and state, so much part of the success of the Catholic Church was founded on its adaptation to the pagan. The pagan knows that the boundary between public and private is not physically or is in the function of each one, since one in the square can not be separated in modern life, but is an unstable equilibrium between mobile areas governed only by the respect and doubt. The substitution rule, respect and belief and doubt personal taxation, however it is shared, it is idolatry to tribal values \u200b\u200band grass of confusion, which is rampant power. In addition to that idolatry is very variable fidelity, depending on the returns offered by the idol at all times. Hence, the judge's decision is not a battle in a war of symbols but a symbol of a war between tribes, however latent that is the modern comfort. The village community seen as supplementary to secularism back and pretending to act on their behalf.

What the judge is to ensure the symbol of feudal surveillance handkerchief in which only the fittest requires a community to another and exclude the vanquished. The ritual of the judge's decision is magical because only he can know the reason and process, leaving only decode interpretation necessarily random. The propagandists of the new dogma makes any discussion about it an article of faith, excluding the opposite reason: Marc Carrillo concludes his article The crucifix travels to Strasbourg with a succinct statement that cancels its previous arguments In short, this trip to Strasbourg crucifix better settle the foundations of a free society Taliban every kind and condition. Hell is always the others. What begins as an argument in his article really becomes a flawless, and as such is suspected of being a lie hidden. Whether or unappealing contrast is not supported and, therefore, right.

Instead, the source is more worthy of attention: the Case of the European Court of Human Rights, November 3, 2009, on the case against Italy Lautsi , whereby Italian State has been condemned for moral damages regarding the display of the crucifix in a public school. In the end, a substitution occurs only visible symbols, and thus recognized and challenged, by other invisible and harder to identify and combat. The right not to believe in any religion that case the statement must include the idols, as she herself admits to extend that freedom to practices and symbols that express a belief, religion or atheism .

Erratic Heartbeat Cliparts

no circumstances face


Robert Bergman, Untitled, 1993 and 1989.

(*) These guys do not have paints have managed to find out what he could do his great country for them, not even habérselo raised. Nor are entirely responsible for his face, so could not do for your country rather than put it aside, foreign evidence, as well as themselves.

The eyes of women and men are so stark and anonymous as the photographer. This demonstrates their intention to go directly to the characters (no character from the moment that is publicly exposed picture) by failing to identify subjects by not naming a title or give a clue to his whereabouts or where they were taken. Even the only brand of the photos, the year is not just a personal appeal to order, without altering the other news so that give these faces: its constancy over time. Stripped of name, time, place and social status, are out of history and therefore free to show what they are and even where they have arrived. (The reason why only know them and the interpretation by the viewer). No caption give more standing to speak about them. Thus, particularly left free to the viewer, alone with his own references and giving held view. Without information and history are not categories, both the types and their watchers are accidental. Trackless social, personal face appears. Not testify to anything but themselves, so the viewer does not have to be a prosecution witness, only voyeur. Not recognizing them, recognize them for what they are and we, ordinary people, above individuals, too.

The fact that the picture is limited to the face (or half-length, in other cases) deliberately concealing any other personal item or environment, becomes the hardships that shows each expression into something personal, liberating them from any interpretation the use of poverty. The intentional color saturation of the photos is a more introspective expressionism, a mirror more than a showcase. By focusing on the expressive face and the subject is central, not marginal. Photographer's emphasis on loss, grief or harm that reflect those faces is a way of restoring the circumstances personality-neutral and irrelevant to the viewer, are removed.

series Americans Robert Frank marked the beginning of Bergman's career, which continued as a command standard Frank that the artist must have a personal vision based on the feeling and intuition. However, this emphasis on private does not prevent an implicit documentary about the country that helped produce those faces. The choice of marginal characters as protagonists, and the expressive use of color film prove this result, although not the intention of the photographer.

Juan Muñoz: Last Conversation Piece (1994-1995), Hirshhorn Museum

(*) Journalism, politics and history share an attraction to lie as a raw material of their respective genres. The fascination lies beyond their moral condition and is attached to its scandalous nature. Attracts a provider need imagination, but it does not take effect until it gets deny the facts, de-do them. The success of the lie need of repetition, which has pretensions of mantra, liberation of thought that confuses the mind and the tedium of reality that overwhelms the lives of men. His record is like a prayer, an invocation to some deity appealed to avoid its contrast with the facts. Dither

stories with lies as a tissue has the potential of the arts, whose works are a failure and are unlikely when folded to the facts. In The Decay of Lying a treaty paradoxical about it, Oscar Wilde said that "it is an inescapable duty to try the renovation of the old art of Lying." It does not refer to lying utilitarian practice of parents in the education of children or politicians in the management of the masses to tame both generations, but "the only form of lying is absolutely beyond reproach, the lie for lie, [the] highest manifestation is the Lie in Art "

The modern political lie is not to miss what was promised or betraying a pact, practices whose morality is more than repaid, but in making an illusion that goes beyond the facts of the flat really sad disrepute. Word and loyal demand too much time to check its validity and become burdens to a policy whose success depends on the repetition of images and instant messages, so ephemeral and replaceable by others of the same nature. The dual representation consisting of political, theatrical and formal delegation of power to the voters, you need a scenario where lying is a more of the actors and appeal of fiction.

Only in those countries of Protestant culture, where lying is a sin, lying is religious policy and can incapacitate the author for betraying the public conduct that is expected of him. Coincides with the public lie that sin does not prescribe and the indelible character increases his legend. Both need of forgiveness for redemption, but not to be forgotten. However, it differs in that its opposite is not true (virtue), but the fact. Clinton's initial lies about his relationship with Monica Lewinsky and Ted Kennedy's Chappaquiddick accident break the exemplary character attributed to the public but also unleash their human legend. Moral fiction is replaced by popular fiction. In the public lie, discovered by the media and fervently awaited by the viewers, there is a secular power and liberating character of the libretto but the process of accusation and redemption through confession is religious. The object is to restore both the fact and the return to the fold. The same messenger who exploits his deceptions, journalism, is responsible for recovering and enthrone the event, amid the stories being invented as a futile attempt to breach the public but useful food.

The lie is different from crime in its force and its difficulty to be encoded, thus exempted from the law and the extent of time. Lying about the past is no escape but for the future do discredit the accused, since it is not rebutted. That is the utility of the indictment of Senator Joe Wilson Obama and that makes the weakest point of his speech on health care reform before Congress when the president promises that illegal immigrants have no guaranteed health care (not provided) by the government. The senator added two notes to increase the power of the indictment: describes his act of "spontaneous", associating it with sincerity that is often attributed to intuition, and his apology is personal, and not to the president before Congress, avoiding Temple could accuse himself a liar. Wilson is a craftsman of the lie.

(These lowlands goes without saying that this does not have many overtones of being true)

Waterproofing Paint Shoes

lying Ruinas

(Robert Polidori, Auditorium in school # 5, Pripyat, 2001, series on Chernobyl)

(*) was television, from 1946, the butler humanism topped by a shot, since he already lived a period of grace, granted by the magical aura of the book: an extension of their inability to transgress anthropocentric sense of the nature of man, just wondering about its essence. Understanding humanism as a factor of man as rational animal, which is unlimited n but composed only of numbers. His executioner began as the radio, since 1918 and World War I as the first scene of rubble, but the voice was not strong enough: it lacked the image, to replace the written language as a means of emancipation of man but also for the domestication of and organizing mass societies. Bourgeois humanism was an idealist and emancipatory project led through the school, thus domesticating. His faith in the book is, however, inheritance of the ancient world. World War II put an end to the function in a derelict theater in which eminent humanists like Márai Zweig and held the office of the dead. In your case on your behalf, with all the dignity of his literary and personal trajectories and the consistency of their suicides, punctual, almost prescient, the Zweig.
[...] After I left and I felt embarrassed in front of the old woman and good woman who, in a naïve and yet truly human, had been faithful to the memory of the deceased. For her, the woman with no education, at least he kept the book to remember it better. I, however, Mendel I had forgotten the books for years. Just me, I should know that books are only written for, above their own breath, uniting human beings, and thus defend against the relentless back of all existence: the transience and forgetting. (Mendel books, Stefan Zweig)
The coroner of the death of humanism was Heidegger who could see its limitation as a subordinate of language: "If a man must one day reach the vicinity of being, it is necessary first learn to exist in what has no name "(Letter on Humanism ). On the ruins of two world wars and two European genocide, enter Charter in 1946, published a year later. This arises from the question that makes her young admirer, Jean Beaufret: How again give meaning to the term humanism? In response, Heidegger does not yield to the proposed resurrection, imputing to question the intention of retaining the term: "I wonder if required. "The tragedy involving such labels is not yet evident enough?" Disgrace which attributes the origin and the type of advertising effect term (-ism) and, therefore, in neutralizing power of thinking about the substance of man, as the language that essentially wraps and advertising is their way of mass dissemination. Heidegger wide shot and directed against the ideas of Sartre Existentialism Is a Humanism? , whose first version was published shortly before, in 1945.

In turn, recognition and response to Heidegger come together to Sloterdijk, who defines humanism in Standards for Human Park as "telecommunications founder of friendships made in the medium of written language . That since the time of Cicero come humanitas naming is (...) one of the consequences of literacy. (...) At the core of humanism and understood discover a sectarian or club fantasy: the dream of a predestined solidarity among those select few who can read "

Today, as happens in hiding the philosophical debate (so secret that danger of slipping into the Kabbalah), the match between the remains of humanism and ruptured by an ontology that calls to ask about the essence of man, the new barbarians and courteous imposed amid cries of confusion. Circus star in both the stands and the old position of Caesar, field by aggressively brandishing our respect and humanistic values \u200b\u200bsuch as old peace with the gall and arrogance of those who know the judge, parties and court of appeal. Will be a long while, Marx in the historical sense, but despairing of the revolution that began Wittgenstein and Heidegger. Since subjects will manufacture the concert of Havana domineering communion achieves both mass and appropriates the symbol-the Plaza of the Revolution, and is organized from the business of power, the alliance between money (a section of Miami ) and dictatorship, with the support of dissidents, which narrows the margin. Against the peace of the barbarians that plague one of the best music that takes time in the making, the Cuban gainsay the only cure for peace possible, thinking and the release of old domains of power of these mercenaries. Given the scenario, it misses the illustrious humanism.
