MooPig Anthology and Stuff Department :: "Cargo Cults"

Are We all really a Herd of Sheeple?

MooPig Anthology and Stuff Department had been reading about "Cargo Cults," when this article stuck out from the rest. The article is irreverent of indigenous people who practice one or another cults. The reason for the contempt is that it implies that all of us earth dwellers subject ourselves to believing in "higher power" cults that turn out to be simply "advanced technology."

Read the Article HERE:

Cargo Cults - Humans Will Believe Anything | Sick Chirpse: "So how does a feeble human brain readjust to fit in all of this new and unexpected shizzle? Well, simply put, it’s all assigned to a higher power – The ultimate solution for confusion in the uneducated human. The inhabitants decided to try and get back to the glory days by inventing odd cults and new rituals. Some of these Cargo Cults still remain to this day, including one in Tanna (a remote island) where more than half a century on, they continue with their unsuccessful rituals. They try their best to mimic the soldier’s activities in a hope that they too can summon the same wealth and technology that those mystical foreigners had managed to steal." (Lazer Horse. June 18.

CONCLUSION
The article suggests that these kinds of cult followings can be eradicated through education. MooPig Wisdom thinks that cults will never be eradicated. Sure, one can read about traits and practices of people and become wise to a cult, which is what anthology is all about, but humans apparently need something to believe in. So no matter what kind of "tosh" is removed from belief systems, another whole set of rituals are borne to make a new belief system with a cult following.

Following a belief with rituals and such is said most often to "fill a void" in the heart of the follower. And your Lords and Masters are counting on all of us falling for the latest cults.

UPDATE !!! MooPig Dance Trends Department :: "Zendaya’s Debut"

Youth Spirals Past the Geezers of Dance
Disambiguate'd by Pat Darnell and Plethora  |  Mar 18, 2013  |  Bryan TX

This is Dancing With the Stars Debut History. Youth explodes and runs past all the Geezers who would be dancing stars. Call Zendaya the only brightest spiral galaxy in an otherwise black hole of reality television madness. Call it what you want, but I never would have watched this ridiculous show if it were not for the champion effort of Zendaya and Val Chmerkovsky.

" ... Z[endaya] did actually stand out last night though, and we're not just biased. She earned the top spot with 24 points out of a possible 30.

We don't want to jinx it, but we totally think she's going to win this season. Check out Zendaya's DWTS debut in the video below, and don't forget to vote for her all season long!

Some of you might know that MooPig Family was once on a TV Reality show called: "Honey, We're Killing the Kids." We kicked ass on that show, and we know the difference between schlumps and schumpeters. 

MooPig Odds Maker Department says, "Our money is on Zendaya to win, 100 to 1." Zendaya chuckles all the way to the bank, she's just sixteen!

Zendaya’s Dancing With The Stars Blog: Getting Ready For Premiere Night!: "Last week we wrapped Season 3 of “Shake It Up” and I already miss my “Shake It Up” family. My TV brother Roshon was on “DWTS” and he has been giving me a lot of advice. He was like, listen, what you need to know is to blow your nose before you go out on stage. Because it’s live, snot will fly! I think that’s genius advice and I’m definitely going to have that in the back of my mind when we perform tonight! -- Zendaya"

Okay so it is attrition time. Pull an orange card from the Attrition Game Deck ...

MooPig Dance Trends Department has been following the career of Zendaya and her cohorts of Disney's "Shake It Up!" kids TV. The kids on the show are dancers on a local TV show called "Shake It Up Chicago," so, they are in a show about a show. Zendaya 's name on the show is Rocky, and her best friend is CeCe, real name: Bella Thorne.

What we noticed first time we saw the show was that none of the regulars could dance a lick. but that does not stop the General Audience rated action. We found the show refreshing, so we channel back to watch for new episodes.

Well, it is only the third season, and already star actress Zendaya is Dancing With The Stars, DWTS, tonight. so for sure we will tune in.

When asked "Why the one name billing for you, Zendaya?" She replies "My Dad made up the name and like 'Madonna,' you know, Zendaya!"

That is attrition in all its glory. Move over Madge, Beyonce, Charo, and the rest ... Zendaya!

PROM NIGHT

Movie Review: Strictly Ballroom

If you're lost... and less than bombast; Time after time, you will find your way again, and MooPig will help you as your understudy. If you fall we will catch you... and you will catch us, and we will be then dancing!

Ever wondered what happens to old men? Strictly Ballroom. That's right, they all go strictly ballroom. Memories like faded ticket stubs in a drawer, and clippings of newspapers... and brief heart palpitations when a familiar tune is heard... sound accurate? There are lots of songs about faded memories, and I think I just put a little of each in the last few sentences.

If you are in a bad time of life; or can't put up with the present conditions of your mid-life crisis, we at MooPig Futurism Coalition, governed by the Kurzweil Vision -- suggest you go visit an Old Folks' Home today. Yes, the visiting hours at the nursing homes are 8 AM to 8 PM everyday. Few restrictions keep a visitor from wandering about in any and all the wards of Nursing Homes. Once a visitor found himself in the Alzheimer's ward. There was no one around the halls or doors except patients, not even staff.

"Once you start volunteering to visit Homes, then you come to conclusion to end your funk, and that betterment is in the present. These are the good old days right now. Yes, it is that simple," says MooPig Philosophy Department.

"Strictly Ballroom" is a movie addressing a very important understudy problem in 21st Century human society.

MooPig Wisdom purports that "the truest form of appreciation an audience can bestow on musicians is to dance as they perform. And the truest appreciation the musicians can bestow on their audience is to play with rhythm that makes human hearts want to dance. This is the total edification utility of our human musical heritage."

The movie states this special relationship through its use of ageless dance angle, music splendor, and every age of human being; and proves the possibility of rehabilitation for all of us. If all else fails, go Strictly Ballroom.
