Interesting that the 'state' bores you... and that art-gods don't....
Last week the major political argument (here) was interestingly enough
on various biopolitical engagements on the body, decisions on hybrid
dna research, whether a father was required for ivf treatments, the
upper time limit for abortions.... That the argument is at what point
these things are criminalized should I would have thought been the kind
of thing you would have been interested in... What is it about the state
that worries you all so much ?
