My contempt for Alan Watts and Siddhartha Gautama
Alan Watts had good ideas but led a chaotic dissolute life marked by bitter ex-wives and abandoned children and alcohol abuse.
Siddhartha Gautama, the Buddha, likewise abandoned his son to indulge personal gratification, and in consequence is at the top of my shit list.

Only a few really groove on killing, and we try to keep them in prisons or armies
[Comment by user: "The US has a long and proud tradition of shooting its politicians, up to and including Congresswoman Giffords."]
Long tradition but I would not call it proud, that’s a very slim piece of pie.
Most people are appalled by killing, that’s majority human nature to my thinking. Only a few really groove on it, and we try to keep them in prisons or armies.
