1. Not a religious person. Tablets, paths, etc. not relevant. 2. Fundamentalism equally irrelevant. Fundamentals, however, are a different story, being essential to baseball, railroading, language, and historical analysis. Always work on the fundamentals.
3. There's just nothing "fresh," "new," or even "radical," in the weary, sad rejection of a Marxism never fully apprehended in the first place. The proof being in the practice-- which takes you to tailing this or that "enlightened" "liberal" capitalist political formation in the name of peace, realism, or feeding people. 4. So it's one thing to defend the "rampagers in Athens" from the police, and quite another thing to determine the real driving forces of the protest, the limitations of the protesters, and the transformations necessary to overcome the limitations and bring the actions into correspondence with the driving forces. Too abstract? I don't think so... like I said before, class, property, and the social organization of labor. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Leigh Meyers" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <PEN-L@SUS.CSUCHICO.EDU> Sent: Saturday, June 23, 2007 11:21 AM Subject: Re: [PEN-L] Rampage Across Athens > So your path is Marxist 'fundamentalism'?...
