No More

I know that most of my friends are believers, but if I hear anyone mention anything in conjuntion with any belief in hard vitalism anytime soon, I might do something violent.

Sorry for the inconvience.

Hey hal -
Hook us up with some links, kid! Hard vitalism? Is that like that Herbal viagra stuff I get emails about all the time? What’re you talking about?

What do you think John Williams lifted from for the Star Wars soundtrack, other than Classical Opera’s use of leitmotif: http://www.findword.org/le/leitmotif.html

“Vitalism is the metaphysical doctrine that living organisms possess a non-physical inner force or energy that gives them the property of life.”
