8) S'funny, mang - I was thinking the very same thing, today - wondering what an animated Little Lebowski would look like (it's far beyond my paltry slide-show abilities - and software. I think I shall slow down - or change tack - on those;- getting a bit dull using all the same images.). Any Dudes up for the challenge?
I find this guy (Graham Hancock) F'N interesting (couldn't find the exact vid I wanted but this will lead into other stuff). I can highly recommend any of his books but most especially " Supernatural."Graham Hancock..........helping to keep the mind limber, man.

I sincerely await the fall of capitalism (as nearly happened with the recent banking crisis), but with the complete failure of the Soviet and Chinese systems to implement a workable alternative I worry what comes next.

Yea i watched a film about Jaques Franco about communication the other day...He's a wise guy. That Venus project seems like the way to go.

S'right, Dude - the mad carnival will never stop . . best a Dude can do, I guess, is to find room, between the insane drum beats that seem intent on mashing our minds into oblivion, a Dudely space, a bridge from the chords of despair (if you will) to dance his/her own discordant steps.
Speaking of 'her' . . where are all the lady Dudes? I recruited one (she hasn't made an appearance on the forum yet), well, two - if you count Mrs. Cakes (and who wouldn't count her). Okay, here's a challenge; active forum Dudes, try and recruit a lady Dude (not a 'Dudette - a 'Dude' with a vagina) before the end of year holidays and get them on the forum. Why? Well, why not? Evangelical issues aside - this whole Dudeism thing is getting a bit 'priestly' if you get my drift. I'll go into why I insist on calling vagina-Dudes "Dudes' some other time.

This is NOT from wikileaks....and is just some made up nonsense.Not sure why you, as you put it, 'ranted' about it but the issue is far from explained; I recall clipping it for another site (when the story first broke) and then clipping the follow-up 'explanation'. It could be the case that the official explanation is the genuine one (stranger things have happened) but it isn't according to the eye witnesses (or some of them). One Dude felt insulted enough to make his own animated video on what he saw. I just thought it was interesting to have (I'll compromise, here) further (alleged) information on it. It should have been put on my other site, though, for continuity (well, kind of a continuity - it was ages ago . . in my head). And of course, some people claim that there were two events.
CERN and the Hadron collider have absolutely nothing to do with this "spiral" The Hadron collider seems to get a lot of bad press...well bad science, from people who understand absolutely fuck all about the machine....if you want information on what it can actually do...go here: http://lhc.web.cern.ch/lhc/
It is an open site and shows the raw data in real time...for those who can bother to try and understand it.
In actual fact the spiral was found to be a Rusian Bulava intercontinental ballistic missile. which was test fired from a submarine in the White sea. See Here:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1234773/The-answer-mystery-Norways-spiral-light-display-Was-failed-Russian-Bulava-missile-test.html
There are enough real mysteries and possible conspiracies out there...crop circles, water circles, beaching whales, 911 (the pentagon plane) that we don't need to go looking for quite obviously made up non scientific junk....
Rant over....

DB: Quite a few ancient Dudes have been found (well, I recall a couple): I think it was in China, last year, the remains of a (female) Shaman were found - among the artifacts found with her was a stash of choice marijuana. Again, I'll try and find the links and post later.

Another crass attempt to superimpose Dudeism onto Christianity, forgive me but I'm too apathetic to respond, just now. This Dudeism thing is wearing a bit thin with me, at the moment. Think I need to take a break. http://dudespaper.com/saint-lebowski.html/ (http://dudespaper.com/saint-lebowski.html/)
Of all the Xian - Dudeism articles, I think this one was the best. But I don't think any of them are offensive.
For me it's just that Chistianity is "overplayed" - like a pop song that you hear too much. I too groan at attempts to link Jesus with the Dude but only because Jesus is like Britney Spears and the Dude is so much more unsullied and non-co-opted by nations and corporations and armies of slavish dimwits. But people do feel strongly about the original Jesus, and if we can help show Xians how they might re-fashion their savior into an image more in keeping with his Dudeist origins, then we've done a good deed. Am I wrong?

I trust that the Phd after Mr. Byassee's handle hasn't coloured anyone's impression on the depth of his (for want of a better expression) spiritual insight. He does appear to be an erudite chap; I know that M5 is an erudite chap, too - you yourself are also a learned man. I, myself, am not but I know that his chosen example of Mother Teresa as the avatar of holiness (in our time) is dubious (to say the least). You've got to be f'n kidding me
....
;D "It was pitch black. Black as your hat. There are no lights here at all"
...Don't worry - there's no danger of a council of Carthage (I thought it was the council of Nicea?) forming Dudeism into a fascist cult like the Catholic one. You guys are here to help prevent that from happening...
Sorry forumdude, but your link froze my window. Had to give it the 3 finger salute to get out of it and then a window to some kind of Bible study opened right under it.
there was a great chapter in "the lucifer principle," a book i read years ago which drove the point home that control of the invisible is far more important than control of the visible in recounting the henry vs hildebrand debacle - http://www.scribd.com/doc/22589677/Howard-Bloom-The-Lucifer-Principle.
that's weird, cc. - it's on scribd.com - the youtube of documents. they're a straightforward company, and don't push ads like that or anything. can't imagine how that happened.
You act as though they are mutually exclusive, that Dudeist Christian is not the same as Christian Dudeist. The author was merely saying that the Dude?s philosophy is compatible, if not admirable, with Christianity.
Having grown up in a half-Jewish half-Catholic family, I would say, if I were FORCED to choose that Dudeism seems to follow Judaism more than Christianity. However, the reason I choose to be a Dudeist is because it is NEITHER of these religions, but it's own. If I were to be told that being a Dudeist meant I were a Christian, I would cease to be a Dudeist for the same reasons I ceased to be Christian. By hey, that's just, like.....my opinion, man.
