Last Tuesday night, my wife Linda told me in no uncertain terms that I had to go sleep on the family room couch. Not only that, but she did it again on Wednesday and again on Thursday. Don't worry though, it's not what you think. What happened was we adopted a dog (a 2 year old beauty that we named Abbie) and I slept next to her for a few nights to keep her company.

I start by recognizing that conspicuous consumption, buying to show off not to meet needs, is the result of the "dominator paradigm" on which EuroAmerican cultures are built. It is almost unknown in other cultures that were based on 'reciprocity' and not 'money' or 'exchange.'THE DOMINATOR PARADIGMThe "Dominator Paradigm" was inherent in the Jewish creation myth. It holds that the Earth was made for the use of man (and I do mean "man"). The man centered philosophy was emphasized by the Greeks in the tenet that "man is the measure of all things." The early Christian church amplified the belief that man is the purpose of the Earth, and the Earth is the center of the universe...
