    Films with philosophical/ideological value

    I don't know if this is what you're looking for exactly, but try Ikiru by Akira Kurosawa. It's about 'evaluating the meaning of one's existence in the face of death.' A very beautiful film.

    Where do ideas of good and evil come from?

    And on what basis do we make that argument? What makes an individual "valuable" - and better yet, whose interpretation should we accept? How do you go about implementing that in a political system? When political theory is that removed from practical application - it's fucking meaningless.

    Where do ideas of good and evil come from?

    I think most people have really touched base on where the idea of good and evil comes from in this thread, so I won't say much myself. I think morality has its basis in the 'Social Contract' myself. We make a necessary sacrifice of certain freedoms, in order to live a life in which we're not...

    Astronomy and Metal

    Shadowthrone (who used to post on UM) is an Astronomy major. He has his bachelor's and he's doing graduate work/research right now and working on his doctorate. Astronomy really doesn't interest me much. I don't care about life on other planets either. When we find such life, it'll probably end...

    Emperor are a great band. My favorite, actually. I remember years ago when I had first heard them... I didn't give them a chance. I didn't like black metal back then, and I just wasn't going to have it. I thought it was noisy, and that they needed better production. Then as I started getting...

    I would like to thank everyone who mentioned Tenhi in this thread. I went to the Prophecy label's site and listened to 'Yota'. Fucking wow. Oh, wait. That doesn't even come close to showing my enthusiasm. FUCKING WOW. There... that's much better. This sounds like something Empyrium would...
