Question of the Week: 43 - 5/28/2001

What's On Your Balloon?

We've all seen the bumper stickers and pins: 'Question Authority' or 'Hate is NOT a Family Value' or 'It's Been Lovely, But I Really Have To Scream Now'. Suppose every morning when you got up, there was a big bunch of slogan-balloons there that you had to give away during the day. What would YOUR balloons say and who would you give them to-- and why? (Sure hope some of those balloons make it over to a few of the political circus performers out there!) Wren (self-confessed ex-hippie chick and 70's put-the-daisy-in-the-gun-barrel-political activist) thinks this might be a good real-time idea to consider at protest rallies or to exchange at Pagan Pride events. Would YOU be gutsy enough to actually do something like this?

My favorite, I read on a website a few years ago and I made myself one for my car, is "The Goddess is Alive, Magic is Afoot" this has been my favorite for a long time. I would give a balloon with this saying to everyone that looks as if his/her inner child has died. BB Althea Morgan

"Its your hell, you burn in it." I'd make sure i had a few of these on me at all times so when anyone told me I was going to go to hell I could just hand them one and walk away.

| blue (st. albans, Vermont US) | Age: 55 |

I think the best bumper-sticker sentiment I ever came across is "Commit random acts of kindness" so I would put that in my balloons and pass them out to any who would take them. Why? Because I think kindness, like smiles, spreads contagiously.

Okies, lesse......
"A true friends stabs you in the front." --Oscar Wilde
"Tsk, tsk. God says love everyone. Looks like SOMEBODY'S going to Hell!!!"
"If idiots could fly, this place would be an airport."
"Excuse me, but when was the last time I tacked one of YOU on a post and flamed 'em!?"
"I'm weird AND gifted!"
"I'm from Canada. Yes, we do have running water."
The last one is something I have to say to every American I meet on the Net! :)

| Nelli (Carmel Valley, California US) | Age: 24 - Email |

There is an exhaustive list of slogans that I absolutely love; these are some of the ones I could think of right off hand:
* Dog is my copilot (this one's particularly suited to anyone with canine children/friends/familiars)
* Jesus loves you - everyone else thinks you're an asshole
* Out of body; back in 5 minutes
* Be your own God/dess
* Invest in your country...buy a politician
* Where are we going, and why am I in this handbasket?
* Did you ever stop to think...and forget to start again?
And then there's my absolute favorite, the darwin fish. My favorite of all the phrases posted so far: It's your hell, YOU burn in it! Have fun, all...

I apologize for the double post, but I justthought of a good one.
"If it's good Christian love, why do you hate everyone?"
"Preach Peace and Love, avoid another Burning Time!"

| Elibdis D. Dragonmoon (Taylorville, Illinois US) | Age: 16 - Email |

Yes, I would make some bumber stickers. I believe that the following ones would be the most popular:
"Satan who?"
"We are all One Tribe under One Sun."
"What Devil? Where?"
"I don't read my Sacred Texts to you, so don't read your Bible to me."

| Anette (Gavle, Sweden) | Age: 39 - Email |

My balloon would say:
"God told me to - and the Devil made me do it!"
The only people I would give them to would be the ones who laugh when they read it.

| Sabine Moonsinger (New York, New York US) | Age: 36 |

My balloon/bumper sticker would say: "Teach Religious Tolerance" or "Give Your Kids a Gift for a Lifetime: Teach Religious Tolerance"...
I'd give them to everyone I came across--from the urban dweller to the small town farmer.
