My point is I see others who are more deserving of the title.

You really haven't seen crazy yet. Give it a month or two.

Some of us walk the straight and narrow path of logic to a conclusion, others of us crawl through the wilderness of madness and somehow end up in the same place.



Maybe, just maybe, crazy defines me. Have you thought about that?

I sense incoming.

It defines a lot of people. Humanity itself is insane. It's perhaps one of our biggest assets.

But, really, there's only one person around here who from what I can tell was more crazy than me. And she was before my time. Despite the fact that she was apparently kinda scary (and again that's me saying so), it's kinda sad that she's gone.

Jack's just an alcoholic with some questionable ideas, but that's something you can reason with, if you avoid the temptation to kick him just because he's down. Which is REALLY hard to resist. I oscillate between feeling sorry for him and taking pot shots at him myself.

As for your religious ideas and some of the supernatural related conversations I see around here, beliefs on their own don't make a person crazy. A person can actually be both reasonable and rational about belief, even if they can't be convinced those beliefs might be wrong.

Crazy makes a person crazy. And you'll know crazy when you see/hear it.

I am sure I will have you to guide me through it. I am all a tingle in anticipation.

In the very least Jack wouldn't say that about his niece, and he's probably okay with girls being sluts, pretty sure he even likes that. He'd even say he'd object to people taking advantage of them. But more than that, from my observations and from his confirmation, no. He would not intervene if it was happening, and actions speak louder than words. I suppose we can't blame him for that, it's not really anyone's responsibility but the ones involved.



Jack has shown pretty consistently how he views women. 'Views' being the telling word these days. ;)


As for not intervening, that's a whole other debate.

An opinion piece from an Indian woman on how rape is used as a tool against women who try to break free of caste oppression.

Dalits are formerly known as the 'Untouchable' caste.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_during_the_liberation_of_Poland

Information about the mass rape of Polish and German women during the Soviet liberation after ww2. Note that ages ranged between 9 and 80.

Forced sex was regarded by the soldiers as the same as plungering households and farms, a prize for the victors.

Rape is never a necessary thing.

Here's where I left off....

97% of the rapes in this country are perpetrated by MEN
3% are perpetrated by women

If this is men controlling themselves... holy hell do y'all need a new control switch...


One thing here that is disturbing...
In other threads here many of the posters of this discussion have jumped in to posit that the most well known serial rapist of our time should be excused for his actions, because they try to claim it is his personal life, we should not be offended by his "personal life" of repeatedly raping, and as a result of the legal proceedings surrounding his raping and spurred on by his raping he should not have been Impeached twice. For lying under oath in rape and sexual harrassment cases he should not be expected to answer for his serial rapes.
These same people post here that they find rape an unreasonable activity.
How hypocritical.

Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.


convicted of rape?




SAGAN: We are releasing vast quantities of carbon dioxide, increasing the greenhouse effect. It may not take much to destabilize the Earth's climate, to convert this heaven, our only home in the cosmos, into a kind of hell.
