The Tea Party: Our Apollonian and Dionysian Choice
from Madcast Radio · host StreetWisePundit
Our choice was given in 1969. Do we choose the Dionysian worldview of Woodstock, or the Apollonian philosophy that allowed for the landing on the Moon? Do we choose mythology or reason? The Evangelical church is also a Dionysian movement as well. More emotional, less rational... That's why it's funny to watch evangelicals doing political battle with the Woodstock crowd! It's just a different form of emotionalism. Our Apollonian and Dionysian Choice Metaphysics and epistemology are totally absent from the Tea Party movement - rather it's mostly composed of emotionally charged political sound-bites with no clear philosophical foundation. We better bring more than "we love liberty" with us to this battle. Keep in mind, Marx is selling liberty in the marketplace as well. http://www.streetwisepundit.com/
