Iran hearkens back to Khomeini days, bans Western Music.

Iran Bans Western Music


Songs such as George Michael's "Careless Whisper," Eric Clapton's "Rush" and the Eagles' "Hotel California" have regularly accompanied Iranian broadcasts, as do tunes by saxophonist Kenny G.

But the official IRAN Persian daily reported Monday that Ahmadinejad, as head of Iran's Supreme Cultural Revolutionary Council, ordered the enactment of an October ruling by the council to ban Western music.





Considering some of the tunes listed above, this might not be a bad thing. :lol:

But seriously, what does this prove? Why...that rock and roll can change the world, duh, and the people in power in the places that need it - know it!

Acid doesn't give you truths; it builds machines that push the envelope of perception. Whatever revelations came to me then have dissolved like skywriting. All I really know is that those few years saddled me with a faith in the redemptive potential of the imagination which, however flat, stale and unprofitable the world seems to me now, I cannot for the life of me shake.

We should sent them pirate radio signals of Aphex Twin and Boc while putting LSD solution into fog-machines and gassing the whole country with it....

I don't think that would be a good idea, AT ALL. LSD isn't the instamatic love machine, IMO.

Do they wear those towels on their heads so rational thought processes don't bombard their inferior intelligence?

:rolleyes:  Intelligence is describing the capability of complex thought processes..

You're talking about BELIEF.  Not intelligence.

Undoubtedly. Crazy Christians are a prime example. Hell, any religion is a prime example.

WTF are you talking about? Intelligence is (as was stated above) just the recognition and processing of patterns. Ones level of intelligence only depends on their pattern processing abilities and NOT on what is being processed or how.

Intelligence is NOT a measure of whether ones view of the world is "correct", or of how much it "corresponds to actuality". Therefore beliefs don't affect a persons level of intelligence. All beliefs do is set up a framework for thought patterns to be processed within.

now come off your pedestal.
