I`m from Brazil but lived in Arizona and NYC for two years.
The worst problem for me during that time was that in the USA you have to buy the whole package: either you are a conservative and side with them in ALL issues (pro-life, anti-gay agenda, screw the poor, pro-war) or you are a liberal and side with them in ALL issues (pro-abortion, anti-war, pro-gay agenda, etc.).
Well, I happen to be pro-life, anti-gay agenda, christian, anti-Iraqi war, anti-imperialism, etc...so you see I couldn`t "fit" any group and felt totally isolated.
I am also a fundamentalist christian in doctrine who abhors the behavior of the christians in the US, the intolerance, the xenophobia, the lack of compassion, the politics. Boy was I screwed...

Re: Hello Everybody
:-( Well it seems I am the only Australian in here which doesnt surprise me to say the least most Australians are an extremely gullible lot!.
I am a male 30 and also a college student like falcon or universities we call them here!
I am a mature age student and after a decade in the workforce as trade appentice and Logistics storeperson and various other occupations i realise just how much as a worker i was being screwed by business big and small and hence the whole NWO economic system.
I am also fed up the the degenerate sexual norms the mainstream media prostelytising this filth!
I am also fedup of the pathetic and corny subcultures the media try prostelytise to youth and those in their twenties!.
Personally i dont know how many years of life i lost to such nihilistic subcultures and their anti establishment facade but in reality just degenerate conformity to NWO standards and attitudes eg. punks goths,hippys whatever thats why i think there so stupid!. :-x

Hi Mary thanks for your reply. I’m sorry to read that you had problems here in England and wish you well for the future. You sound like a good mum from what you’ve said, that’s why you’ve got great kids, good for you :-)
All my life I felt like everybody else possessed some mysterious
Handbook For Humans which I lacked...
Ever since I was a teenager I've been bewildered and amazed at
people around me taking everything for granted. All that energy, man!
I knew (always experienced the world intuitively rather than
intellectually) that something was very wrong, the way the sense of magic seemed to flee the planet.
Now I understand (thanks to among others Mr Makow - who btw sometimes throws my wife into fits of rage) that I'd damn well better pay attention to these 'obscure' dissidents way across the seas - in order to understand what's going on right here...where my children are dependant on my choices.
I'm a true anti-ism-ist, and I strongly feel that Krishna-Buddha-Christ-Mohammad-whathaveyou are manifestations of the very same idea & feel. Whether they were real historic characters or not doesn't seem to matter much.
I've given up searching for spiritual answers outside myself.
Maybe one day, when these dark ages are over, science will prove that love & compassion really is what creates gravity and keeps the world together.
Knock yourself out.
I know exactly how you feel; not being able to discuss crucial issues.
Welcome to you both! 8-)
