This might be a hijack, what the heck- A friend of mine decided to learn German so he could read Nietzsche and Freud's originals, among others. So which great work?

There are fantastic images in glaciers - natural products that
resemble 'our worst fears'.

Sorry- I clicked a blank "send"!

Jesus is also the man/god symbol- among others. I will have to keep re-
reading to see what arguments can be made but there is also the
personal to consider when discussing symbolism.

Strange co-incidence about Star Wars. I either donated or tossed a
huge cache of figures, etc. and my daughter gasped as I guess they are
quite hot on e-bay. I think I would get depressed seeing what's hot-
like Antiques Roadshow.

Anyway- amazing what technology has done re war- Earth Wars.

Symbols and language do play a huge role, don't they? How words are
distorted in meaning or motive,

freekin sweet , im sorry u can go on with your conversation now
ps.  che was originally a symbol but now how many people understand
what he represented , could u make the same argument for jesus or the
pentagram for that matter , or the white flag with a red cross sailed
by columbus , or the imagery on the american dollar bill ?

I've changed my mind about Che. He is too transitory to be a symbol. A
t-shirt or poster does not a symbol make. :-)

Given the current buzz...
I wonder about the debate to show the Crucifixion of Christ back in
the day. Was it considered too graphic? And think of the multitude of
images of Christ's face created by artists of many ages and cultures.
How does an image become a symbol? Of what?- Hide quoted text -
