New thing

My internet browsing of late has a running theme: the need to oppose. There are so many instances when sub-cultures develop as a rejection of mainstream practices, but then these groups focus on their rejection of the particular practice, and so spend much energy *opposing* that choice, rather than finding their own path. I'm reminded of a quote about how God loves a fervent atheist. Satanism is still a form of Christianity. I think the stuff about the Center on Halsted has something to do with this, too, just because it's become a perception filter for me: it colors everything I see.
