Reply #114: "Crown of Creation" was not narcissism... [View All]

...it was the condemnation of the death culture as represented by the nuke-weapon-embracing corporatists of the day, the ones who were carrying on the Viet Nam War and building up and further entrenching/institutionalizing the military-industrial-prison complex, while also demonizing and declaring war on the American subculture known as the "hippies." You apparently know very little about the sociopolitical/pop-cultural history of the last forty years, or you would have not selected that particular phrase for the target of your ignorance.

Also note that the lyric says "YOU are the crown of creation," not "We" or "I am."

So, if you don't want to be the "Crown of Creation," that is your choice, not the Jefferson Airplane's, or mine.
