URSINE LOGIC'S ALTERNATIVE SHOPPING RESOURCES

You can't change the world if you continue to spend your hard-earned money supporting those whose policies you oppose. The best way to fight back is to support those who believe in peace and saving the planet, and who believe in equal respect and opportunity for everyone, no matter the color of their skin, their gender, or their choice to not contribute to overpopulation or exploitation of our planet's remaining natural resources. Instead of supporting big box corporate warehouse stores, buy your gifts, t-shirts, and other apparel from small, independent artists who work hard to bring your their art on everything from bumperstickers to works of art suitable for the most important of gifts. Here are some shopping suggestions that include my own stores and also those whose shops and artwork I'm promoting because I agree with their points of view and hope that you support them too.

PEACE AND ANTI-WAR

Peace is a work in progress. Without new voices and new visions for a better world without war, it will remain an unfinished work. That is why the anti-war view needs to stay in the public realm. The war machine is huge and well-fed and while one tiny voice wearing a message of peace on a t-shirt doesn't seem to be a very effective response, I prefer to think of it this way: you're not trying to change the world. You're trying to change one person at a time into seeing the world in a less hostile and less selfish way. A button, a magnet, a coffee mug, these are all ways to spread the simple and powerful message of peace. Wear them, share them, give them as gifts because it's a way to spread the message while giving something in return.

ENVIRONMENT AND EARTH DAY

One of the biggest challenges facing us is stopping and hopefully reversing, the damage humans have done to the planet. Since war is one of the most destructive forces our planet must endure, supporting peace takes on equal weight with protecting the environment. Clean air, drinking water, safe organically grown real food, and replacing limited resources with sustainable ones should be the primary objective of people on this planet. But it will take time, money, and enough educated voices to take on the entrenched powers that get rich off a planet dependent on oil and fast, cheap synthetic food. The education process begins with the individual. You're not changing the world. You are sharing your knowledge with one person at a time. T-shirts are good way to begin a conversation. Many of the products offered in my shops can be customized and used as teaching materials and fundraiser gifts and thank you gifts. And by purchasing them, you support small independent artists instead of faceless corporate machines.

CHILD-FREE BY CHOICE AND OVERPOPULATION

Due to political and religious influences, one of the most serious problems facing the planet doesn't get the press it deserves: overpopulation. These shops are devoted to getting the word out and also honoring the unselfish choice made by those who choose to remain child-free by choice. There are many reasons to not bring more people onto an abused planet with ever lessening resources, and for many people it is and should remain a private choice. But that choice also needs to have the stigma removed from it so it can be understood it is something made from concern for the planet and its people. The choice is an individual one and it is up to people to educate each other. T-shirts are a good way to start the dialogue. Many of the products offered in my shops can be customized and used as teaching materials and fundraiser gifts and thank you gifts. And by purchasing them, you support small independent artists instead of selfish and greedy corporate conglomerates.

Why shop at big box corporate warehouses who push the myth that you can't be a complete human being without giving birth, and whose corrupt and greedy business practices decimate poor countries and its workers when you can spend your money supporting independent artists who share your values when it comes to creating a more aware and unselfish world? Many of us design from our homes and upload our images to Print on Demand websites that allow you to purchase them directly on the products of your choice.

FREETHINKERS AND ATHEISM

When spirituality was taken from the individual and handed over to the unholy intermediaries, the use of religion as a method of control was established. And in today's world, religious beliefs have become a political tool to shape policies no decent human being would embrace without the cloak of religion covering their stench. Religion is no longer about spirituality and individual worship in communion with whatever deity, enlightened teacher, or awe-inspiring creations from nature you choose to acknowledge; it has become a way for others to use one group to promote hateful and greedy agendas of another. It has become about using, manipulating, controlling and directing people through their own fears and intolerance, to act as shills for corporate thuggery and thievery. That's why I and others fight so hard for our right to not believe in some mythical, non-existent figure, and to educate others on what religion has become in the hands of the greedy and the evil. Please help educate others about the difference between spiritual communion for betterment of self, and the manipulation of fears and insecurities by those with a far more selfish agenda. T-shirts are a good way to start the dialogue. Many of the products offered in my shops can be customized and used as teaching materials and fundraiser gifts and thank you gifts. And by purchasing them, you support small independent freethinking artists instead of selfish and greedy corporate conglomerates who use religion and fools to enrich themselves even more and take over more of the world for their cruel and selfish agenda.
