Maddog, I don't think this is one of those religious and or God hating blog. And I am not steering it to that direction either. I think just because in our lack of understanding and comprehending these mysteries and human frailties, does come the question that perhaps only God can know? Ian, mentioned about his experience in the Serbia killings, where he himself can't understand yet killing was just that killing just because of ethnic cleansing..
Thanks Calmheart, now since we can have a pretty much boxed characterization of such a trait and behavior, then isn't it our right to be protected from such an agression?
I am not sure, but just a question. On the movie that I mentioned, however, it is so cruel and so grotesque, that it is so hard to stomach such an act..
Now Hans, that is outright wrong. For people to be slaughtered for conformity of religion? Had there been such a crime worst than that? But should that make anyone the right to do it? Han, then we have not progressed to what we claim as protection for the freedom of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, but I am aware of the fact that just because these crimes had been committed all the more doesn't give anyone the right to kill anyone, Hans.
That is the only way we can do KC? Is observe? Then why don't we have a very powerful and effective government programs to educate us on how to spot such people?
I don't know, KC and what do you mean, recoverable?
I don't disagree with you at all Ian. The complexity of life in itself is way too much for an ordinary mind to understand. Yet if we do look at simple act of gratitude and or kindness and or compassion, can't we learn and act upon it to be that? Being good?
Yes, it does come to a point where God is involved and I don't mind as long as it doesn't complicate even more.
I just read the many signs to watch for on being a sociopath and boy it gets so much of a character deficiency, specially on the selfishness, egotistic behavior, being needy, etc.etc..The question is, how can we avoid being at the path of a sociopath, or better yet, why can't they as soon as diagnosed be in a controlled environment, to avoid such a very cruel act?
But if what it takes is for all of us to be weeded out, boy that is a major social control IAN.
Much like the placid horses...would we have to apply such a radical move?
Thank you Calm yes, it was and I will try to pull that although I am already looking at Google..Has all the acts both on large and small or specific scale all committed by sociopaths? What makes them so? Or do we just label them to be categorized? And in doing so, is there a differentiation of the punishment meted to them as opposed to those who are not?
In the movie, there was not a medical pronouncement of him being a sociopath and went to jail for 500 years and incapable of pardon..
Calmheartseeks, yes I am aware of that, the question is, for a person to be so precise and so normal in carrying on their family life and yet when asked to be responsible of these acts, they lie? Isn't that just plain sly and clever? So calculating and so evil?
Why? even if they were sociopaths, what can we do to avoid them? Just tough luck then? Just be careful and if you are victimized, then what can we do then?
Well in line with that kind of thinking Ian, then how long will it take for man to be able to deflect and or isolate the bad genes in us, so that we can get rid of it and then we wont act this evil work anymore?
Why can't we fix it then if it is a matter of a biological and or genetic impairment?
I had a little bit of exposure at the UN when I was in Switzerland Ian, and yes, the UN is not a combative institution but only empowered to observe and then record the events to call for the members to act at a certain agenda covered within the provisions of its member's agreement. I really don't know how useful it is in the prevention of such a heinous crimes perpetrated by group of people or country. Beats the hell out of me Ian.
Virgo but even more so. However in a movie review it is all about the context of the making of the movie and how it is being acted out. This is about the exposure of a real crimes that is beyond human comprehension to accept and understand.
So the question is: How can anyone, any human being, given all our progressive development of being good and kind and compassionate, commit such a heinous act?
Hi Enigma, yes indeed, he was normal and very loving to his family. But the arrangement of the wife and the children go to the in laws, made it convenient for him because of his job schedule. it is committed in a span of 15 years Enigma and he was so clever. He knew exactly how to protect himself until one moment and the mistake was too much to ignore.
I was so into those stories during that time Johnny. Remember the movie, Silence of the Lambs? Where he lures his victims so slyly and so innocently on unsuspecting victims?
I do agree with you, but what about those unsolved cases? But you are right, the percentage is of minimal number, I guess, at least to our knowledge..
I enjoyed the story so much cat. It is so engaging for a bird and boy wouldn't be so nice if we can truly communicate in a way as this smart bird of yours? I went to a show in our Fair one day and actually saw the bird really talking so good. Answered some simple questions, too...
First of May, from Bee Gees is one of my favorite Cat, and Celine's The Show Must go On..Leaving on a Jet Plane by John Denver, ohhh isn't that so good?
Very nice nice story..I know all of them, but Looking At My Backdoor, wasn't that Gordon Lightfoot? Mrs. Robinson..from the movie?
Anyways Cat, very clever and thanks for the story, too..
and you think Multi task is not your forte? Hmmmnn this is way more than multi tasking Cat...More like so original and so clever..
And where did you get the statistic? Because this is so plain easy..unless of course you are presenting it to people who's language is not English? Then they'll never find that MISTAKE.
