At first sight, the red thread running through the albums he released during the 1990s is a harsh attack on American ideologies. On his debut album Portrait of an American Family (1994), for example, Manson criticizes ideological constructs such as the nuclear family, arguing that the concept is often used to justify violent pro-life activism.ii Proclaiming that “I got my lunchbox and I’m armed real well” and that “next motherfucker’s gonna get my metal,” he presents himself as a personification of teenage angst determined to destroy his bullies, be they unfriendly classmates or the American government.

  • Hockey Are the Biggest!
    American Life Vicky Shipton Introduction Many people want the “American Dream." This usually means a big house, a big car, and a lot of money! But how is life for average Americans? What do they like to eat? What do they watch on television? What size are their houses? Why do they love their cars? How do they work and how do they play? Most people around the world know something about American life. They see American movies on television. Sometimes they listen to American music on the radio. Sometimes they eat in American “fast food” restaurants. Of course, Americans are not all the same. The United States of America (the USA or US) is a big country, with more than 302,000,000 people. There are many different ways of life. Life in very hot states in the Southwest is very different from life in a state in the North. New York City is one of the most exciting cities in the world, but life there is not the same as life in a small American town! In this book you will see the many faces of American life. Vicky Shipton is from Michigan, in the United States. She lived in Turkey and England for a long time. Vicky says, “When I lived outside the US, I saw my country with new eyes.” When she went back to the US, she lived in Chicago for four years. Then she lived in Madison, Wisconsin, for six years with her husband and two daughters. Now they are back in England and live in Cambridge.

Grey A Thesis in the Field of Religion for the Degree of Master of Liberal Arts in Extension Studies Harvard University May 2019 2 Copyright 2019 [Joan S. Grey] Abstract Many view death as catastrophe, resulting from a cascading failure of biological systems. Fear, denial or unconsciousness results in a medicalized, often institutionalized, approach to end-of-life care. Is dying predominantly a medical event or can it be something more? What would it take to approach end-of-life with intentionality, dignity, and integrity, consistent with beliefs and values? Is healing possible when curing disease is no longer an option? Given the embeddedness of the scientific model in our culture, my thesis “Awakening to Mortality: End-of-life as Rite of Passage and Pathway to Transformation” uses medical terminology for chapter headings -- diagnosis, prognosis and treatment -- as a structure to examine end-of-life.
