waiting for somebody that can walk on water

"So, you see any land around here?
Nope, just water."

a part of a very strange conversation. just watched SLC Punk and totally loved it. the hole story of tribes, beliefs, reasons or lack of, growing up, loosing ... the world through Stevo's eyes is just like a piece of candy. the monologue about who started punk music, the bum scene, the stubborn floating car, the explanation of punk violence, the Porche scene, the 4.o destruction end.

some views on anarchy and what it really stands for - comments of a believer:

"anarchy was not meant to be a lack of order, but rather the reign of self-rule. people were expected to inherently have certain values within themselves that would prevent them from becoming murderers, rapists, and kidnappers. let me put it this way, if there were no police presence and you knew you could get away with it, would you murder someone? rape someone? kidnap someone? personally i can say even if there was nobody enforcing the laws against murder, rape, kidnapping i wouldn't do any of those things because of my own personal sense of right and wrong. that was the sort of thinking that anarchy was originally based on. granted in practice it rarely works, but neither does any other political system. how well does living in a capitalist republic work? is there order in the US? for serious."

from wikipedia - let me call it impartial definition:

Anarchy is the anarchist society, the stateless society of free people. Anarchism is the name of a political philosophy, or a generic term for a group of more-or-less related political philosophies, derived from the Greek an-archos ("without archons" or "without rulers"). Thus, "anarchism," in its most general meaning, is the belief that all forms of ruler ship are oppressive and should be abolished.
One who practices anarchy does not believe in political or moral authority, but may believe in voluntary leadership.
The rise of anarchism as a philosophical movement occurred in the late 18Th century, with its notion of freedom as being based upon political and economic self-rule. It was a reaction to the rise of the nation-state and large-scale industrial capitalism.
Although anarchists are unified in the rejection of the state, they differ about economic arrangements and possible rules that would prevail in a stateless society. On this issue anarchists differ widely, ranging from advocates of complete common ownership and distribution according to need, to supporters of private property and free market competition. For example, most forms of anarchism, such as that of anarcho-communism, not only seek rejection of the state, but also other systems which they perceive as authoritarian, which includes capitalism and private property.
When used by non-anarchists, the word "anarchy" connotes a lack of control and a chaotic environment. The association is so strong that some anti-statists prefer the term "anarchism". The word "anarchy", as most anarchists use it, does not imply chaos, nihilism, anomie or the total absence of rules, but rather an anti-authoritarian society that is based on voluntary association of free individuals in autonomous communities, operating on principles of mutual aid and self-governance.
