Talk:Chris and authority

Is there any reason why people can't just look at the pages to see how Chris responds to these authorities? I can summarize this in one sentence - Chris will respect people who are not confrontational with him and can give him something. --Champthom 23:58, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

Damn. I think this is the third new "Chris and" page I have seen in the last week! Is there a sale at the local CWCki-Mart for knock-off entries? At best, this page is a sidebar entry on the "Chris and the Law" article. Griffintown 00:11, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

My very first major additions to this wiki were to help start Chris and Music, Chris and Remorse, and Chris and English. But this is just getting ridiculous.--Beat 00:26, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

• Those pages you worked on at least take aspects of Chris and are appropriate given the breadth of this topic. This is more or less a very narrow topic that can easily be said elsewhere, and as Griffintown said, could be incorporated in part into "Chris and the Law." I'm glad people like the "Chris and" series but that doesn't mean every article on the CWCki has to be a "Chris and" article. --Champthom 00:31, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

• Agreed. I mean, I love the "Chris and" subtopics (I mean, I created "Chris and Art" and expanded "Chris and his Ego"), but, yeah. Not everything needs it. --Blazer 01:22, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

There is no new, interesting, or entertaining information in this article. I say to hell with it. --OFSheep 01:04, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

• Yeah. This page looks like a mish mash of "Chris and the law", Jerkops and Mary Lee Walsh.--Rob 01:42, 6 January 2010 (UTC)rob

Agreed it's redundant, but from a semantics perspetive, wouldn't "Chris and the Law" be a subset of this, and not vice-versa? --Sonichuis44 01:58, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

I would say that "Law" implies a societal norm the reader can relate to while "Authority" is somewhat vague. Up to a point, a punk and/or a Emo would share Chris's point of view. The law is an objective value that we can use as a reference point. This is why that text should be on top. Griffintown 02:47, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

I dunno, I see the law as only one source of authority over Chris - his parents are/should be another, Mary Lee Walsh is/was another, etc. A punk or emo would have no more respect for the law - it being a source of authority - than Chris, though probably for different reasons (philosophical beliefs vs. "I WANT CHINA"). --Sonichuis44 04:05, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
