U Tell Us

There's a new ridiculous 'U Tell Us' at the NPGMusicClub site:

Let’s Get Deep
The recent Celebration afforded NPG Music Club members the opportunity to xperience a unique kind of energy and 2 develop within themselves a common “language” that transcends ordinary borders. Now is the time 2 build on this — and 2 focus this energy on deep issues such as the ones below. Hope u didn’t put that scuba-diving gear away just yet!

We invite u 2 respond 2 the issues below by sending ur comments 2 . U may respond 2 any or all of the issues. Please note that, by sending ur comments 2 this address, u agree 2 them being reproduced in part or in full on any other NPG Music Club venture.

Did u get a small case of “post-Celebration blues” when the event ended — and Y?
Y do people of all backgrounds get along at Paisley Park, and not elsewhere?
In actuality, what r BORDERS? And y r they erased when the Funk drops?
The Celebration proved that people from various backgrounds can party 2gether — but will we ever b able 2 worship in Truth 2gether?
Many say that one’s own relationship with God is a “personal thing.” That being said, how would that work next 2: “A family that prays 2gether stays 2gether.”? Just how big is r human family?
2 say “Amen” at the end of a prayer simply means that u agree with the prayer. If someone had closed the Celebration in prayer, would u have bowed ur head and simply made up ur own prayer in ur mind?
What point is there 2 pray 2 different Gods if there is only one?
We hear talk of separation of God and State… State of What? Mind? R the efforts made by certain members of society 2 remove God from State a sign of progress or regress?
Y have all of mankind’s attempts at creating UTOPIA 4 itself failed so far?
How can r society eliminate XENOPHOBIA?
7 days of music, peace, and love — and then back 2 the “real world”… How real is the “real world”?
What is the difference between AGREEMENT and HARMONY?



My answer:

YES, I LOVED THE MUSIC!!! Because after all, it's all and only about the MUSIC. So, let's discuss the MUSIC.

I responded to this.

I never get posted.

My beliefs may not be his...but I am sure that one some certain metaphysical sense, they should stand in AGREEMENT Of what was sent in.

No problem. It's very easy to make a morning. All you need is some adhesive tape, a little bit of yellow paint and some salt and pepper for taste.

and be npg mc member. So I did understand it to. And I just wrote them an e-mail, telling I felt inspired to answer to some questions and give my 2 cents, but, I can't! Never were at one of the celebrations, no clubmember, so there's nothing. Schade!

This isn't ridiculous, this is quite interesting.



I L I K E THIS..... smile smile smile smile smile



So why can't people get along elsewhere? This is a GOOD ?


Agreement "the act or fact of agreeing, or of being in harmony..." Mr. Webster


Harmony "a combination of parts into a pleasing or orderly whole, agreement in feeling, action, ideas, interests...." Mr. Webster
so.....what is the difference?????

What is the difference, harmony would be in total LOVE, and agreement would perhaps be agreeing for the SAKE of agreeing?????


Have you ever noticed when people are asked if they had 3 wishes, what would they wish. One wish always seems to be WORLD PEACE. Wouldn't it be nice, and why can't it happen?
Even in a SO CALLED peaceful society, why can't people get along better?

Has man created an artificial UTOPIA? Like an artificial intelligence?

Eliminate Xenophobia? By tolerating each other, accepting oneanother, understanding each other, being positive, and not posing any NEGATIVE threat to oneanother.

How BIG is the human family? Big and complicated.


p.s. just listened to AVALANCHE, truly a powerful song. If it wasn't for the 13th Amendment.....but still, why didn't civil rights kick in????? right away?

XaltedOne, I think you may have found the answer. People can agree in a sterile environment. No emotion is needed. No connections have to be made. Harmony would never survive such a cold place. There must be something more for harmony to thrive. Hmmm, something to ponder. Way cool.
