RE: Calling Klingon Culture an Oxymoron.
>From the TV shows, and the movies, Klingons have been shown to have
an intresting culture, rich in tradition. BEing an American, with
no traditions practiced (none worth noting) in my family when I was
growing up, I have developed a great respect for cultures that value
tradition. Also, to the klingon, Honor is the most important. Honor
and tradition are laC acking in this country, and some things could
be learned from the Klingon culture. As to head off the obvious
flurry of comments that last statement will generate, the violence
is not one of the cultural traits that we should pick up on.
As for oxymorons:
"Jumbo Shrimp"
"Peace Keeping Missle"
"President Clinton"
Sorry, no oxy there.
