HOW ……

How do we deal with the insanity? A comment in my last post WHY.. has lead me to me to another three letter question. HOW… Sanity, insanity can not be defined as cut and dry, but contains arena of contradictions. Does insanity mean incompetence. The person in question planned and executed his insane plan. Incompetent no, insane I would have to say yes. So, how do we deal with the insanity? An eye for an eye? Will that bring back the dead? Is insanity an illness that can be cured? Or is it an excuse to yield to ones OWN dark side?  I agree that insanity must be controlled, contained, and or cured. I am questioning our track record and dealing well with the problem. Our prisons and other institutions are full…..Controlled, contained maybe. Cured? And what of those not yet discovered?

One thought on “HOW ……

  1. Hi Nick,If you really think you and me are insane in a way perhaps not all the time but sometimes.It can be momentary insanity due to anger,envy,greed,sex and so on.Only that we don't go to the extreme extent of killing or misbehaving in public.This I suppose is because of our upbringing,fear of God,fear of society,fear of punishment and so on.Take the case of Bill Clinton,ex president of the US.He had a sexual affair with Monica when he was the President although he was a family man.When he was exposed he appologised.This is a case of temporary illness.So also in the case of people shooting to kill.This brings the subject of hired killers.Why do they kill?For money and they are sadists.I think we can put in asylums people who are permanently insane but temporary insanity can never be controlled.We have to just grin and bear it.Best wishes,Joseph
