What matters is that these people are promoting moral corruption.
And how, exactly, are you qualified to judge others, incl. entertainers, what is "moral" and what is not?
You are aware it's one of the always recurring traits of hyper-religious people to point the finger at others and preach how THEIR morale is the superior one?
And..by the way, moral is more often than not in the eye of the beholder. What you and many religious, mostly Americans, see as "immoral", such as scantily clad entertainers etc. for many other people can hardly evoke a laugh. So..it's "morale corruption" if you see a dancer in short pants jumping around? SUCH a horrible thing they must be of the devil because you're so offended by it? Obviously, we have total different ideas what "moral corruption" is.

Ok let's throw morality out the window...
Thats what you want right?
So you can do whatever you want and not have to feel guilty about it. Let's get rid of God too because you dont want to have to worry about some sort judgement or consequences when you die.
Without morals what's stopping your next door neighbor from raping you, stealing your wallet and then bashing your brains out? And dont say laws because it happens and people DO get away with it.
Morality is in the eye of the beholder? Gimme a F@CKING break.
See, that's your inherent problem, the basic lack of understanding that, the one thing we actually do know is that. Everything is in the eye of the beholder, as life,is a totally subjective experience. There is no empirical proof anyone can provide to back up any argument to the contrary and once you have a grasp on that basic "fact" then everything else falls into place.
Faith is the basic subjugation of your own awareness and allowing an outside party to infect you with their pattern of behaviour. Evil is a totally human construct, there is no definition of evil as it simply defies logic as a quantifiable concept.
We exist because some star blew itself to pieces and in that destruction, gave birth to elements that otherwise, could not actually exist. Why are you so damned scared of random chance? Why not celebrate that random chance by actually trying to make your totally subjective existence a tad more fun? Strange isn't it that, when people are genuinely having "fun" they feel healthier, they live longer and others don;t suffer as a result? In the same way, isn't it funny that, as soon as people become earnest and "righteous" other people seem to start dying at an alarming rate, through no fault of their own?
Why do people sneer at people having "righteous fun" and yet celebrate the "righteous slaughter of millions"?
So when you have some of these morals, as you call them of your own to educate us with, learned from your own experience and understood in the light of ,it can only be your experience maybe there will we a few inches of common ground. Whilst you simply ape that you have bene instructed in, you really don't, as it were, have a philosophical leg to stand on.
For, as Brenda the Bless of Barton in the Beans once said............
Tha entitiy with the round object has just cast it in my direction 3 times and now insists I sit down... what can I do oh great profit? An the great and wise profit David the loss adjuster replied.... "Hit the freakin' thing next time and quit blaming me for your lack of eye"

Dude the Floyd symbol is a prism .... not an illuminati symbol. Also not all popular music or rock stars are part of a conspiracy. Indeed the only conspiracy I see in modern music, is the conspiracy to let mediocre talents shine. Gone are the days of bands like the Queen, the Beatles etc.
That prism is based off of Newton who was a devout Alchemist, which is a form of hermetic gnosticism. The colors which light diffuses into are commonly associated with the chakra system and if you go and read the lyrics of PF after learning up you would likely not be so quick to deny this one.

Just a few facts that sort of well, shall we say , slightly repudiate your theory. Floyd had chuff all to do with the album design as Floyd have always had a policy of picking an artist and letting them do what they do, usually with no guidance at all. It is discussed, at quite great length, in the documentary about the making of "Wish you Were Here".
I'd have thought, if you wanted to go the whole hermetic route then the fact that Waters, Wright and Mason met at Regent Street Polytechnic School of Architecture would be far more fruitful?

Who exactly is celebrating the "righteous slaughter of millions"?
Having no morals is fun? Maybe if you are some kind of degenerate.
I'm sorry but you're not making any sense. If someone could please translate for me I would be happy to respond eventhough having a discussion with an amoral atheist is a complete waste of time.

All the symbols are is fashion
They help to sell records. That is all.
The producers and marketing people love it when threads like this pop up.
It helps sell more records.

Of course not. I was merely making an example of how stupid the whole illuminatti music business conspiracy is.
See marketing does work...

ETA: Oh and by the way I do constantly criticize both the Catholic church and organized religions. I've said ad nauseum that there's a big difference between faith in the Scriptures and the Most High, and faith in religions which are rife with false doctrines and paganism that contradict what the Bible teaches.
If you are gonna stalk me, perhaps you should read all of my posts. Not just pick and choose. Deal?edit on 2-3-2013 by LazarusTsiyr because: (no reason given)
