Religion


This is Laika, the first space explorer. Her real name was Kurdrajevskaya.
The scientists who put her in orbit to study the effects of weightlessness thought it would be much more humane to kill her with poison instead of her dying of asphyxiation, starvation, or being burnt up in re-entry.
She is the dog in the Icon Records icon.
.

Since the fall of Communism, East European countries have been unable to continue with such great achievements as Laika's orbit. Governments have been forced to cease funding of even the most basic of services.
The ones who need help the most are suffering the most.

Icon Records is donating ALL profit we ever make to charities for cerebal palsy victims and research, the blind, the deaf, the mentally retarded, the aged, etc. We have full support from all of the bands on our label for benefit concerts, charity compelation CDs, and volunteer work among other things.
We see no reason why people who have achieved and sacrificed so much should accept capitalism gracefully.
