		<description><![CDATA[Buying music on iTunes is a pain. It's not that choosing music to purchase hurts. The pain is in choosing music outside of my well-worn path that's worthy of my dough.

		<description><![CDATA[Time and religion have always served as means by which humanity satisfies its preoccupation with order and purpose. However, in Ellison’s “‘Repent, Harlequin!’ Said the Ticktockman” and Dostoyevsky’s “The Grand Inquisitor,” humanity’s obsession with structure has forced it to become subservient to the elements that were intended for its own advancement.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In Philip K. Dick’s <i>Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?</i> the post-World War Terminus civilizations are left with radioactive-dust, shattered religions and a desire for a collective unity. Despite some of the socialist undertones that transcend in Mercerism, there also lies a huge component of American ideology that transcends as well: a notion of an American Dream.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Arthur C. Clarke’s, <i>Childhood’s End</i> bends the common notion of scientific understanding by showing the limited possibilities when identifying with the physical, and it explores the unlimited powers of the metaphysical through the metamorphosis of the children. Clarke privileges a physical real notion of truth which leads to humanity’s destruction, and the same theoretical fiber limits the Overlord’s ability to evolve.]]></description>
