Further proof that crazy people can get elected with disturbing ease? Of course, the past decade or so has shown that remarkably well anyway.
I want a return to the days of Nixon. He was a bastard, but at least his only issues were paranoia and megalomania.

Whenever anyone starts talking about "mechanical sins" or the "positive ideal that is proposed is Nature", they don't generally have their heads on straight.
Of course, you're just as crazy as either of them, so I wouldn't expect it to be so obvious.

The problem is that the Unibomber's ideology wasn't neccisarily insane. Many of those quotes attributed to his manifesto are cogent, sometimes even reasonable.

And very similar to Al Gore. But does that make Al Gore the moral or mental equivalent of the Unibomber? Heck no. They may have similar ideologies, it is the actions they took on those ideas that determines who was crazy and who was not. The unibomber terrorized a nation, Al Gore tried to effect change democratically. Only the Unibomber was/is crazy here.

67%..........Al Gore is much creepier to me now, I mean he was creepy before, but now........:eek: :p

Only the Unibomber was/is crazy here.

or at least deluded as to the most effective way to bring about the changes he desired, and, perhaps, to the imminence of the danger he saw.

25%. Apparently I think Al Gore is the Unabomber and vice versa. Which is really wierd. Especially since the quotes from the Unabomber seem to be more sane and more rooted in logic than those of Al Gore

*ahem*

"The atrocities of Hitler and Stalin, and the mechanical sins of all who helped them, might have been inconceivable except for the separation of facts from values and knowledge from morality."

seems perfectly coherent to me. and 'mechanical sins' seems to be a rather good turn of phrase to cover the little eichmanns of the world.

and what about the concept of 'nature' as a positive ideal do you find strange? if anything, it is a major part of our cultural heritage.

well, tk is a genius with a phd

"Nature in the Balance" is fucking insane.

So is slavery.
