A lot of what passes for the way emotional issues are treated is just profiteering. It solves nothing and creates zombies. That's a big so. The point of my post was that there are many kinds of >anger. No, there are many expressions and intensities of anger. Anger for purposes of responding to something should not be destructive. You're advocating rage, revenge, an escalating cycle of violence. Is that what you want, increasing violence? Vaporizing people by the billions or at least many millions, is that what you want? >Some are personality disorders, some are existential >crises, and some types of anger are a justifiable response >to real situations.

For Joerg, I wonder if you found a dog that was abused in puppyhood that made him vicious, you'd take great glee in sending him to limbo, maybe give him a kick in the process, rather than feeling sorry for the life he never had as well as the people he probably bit. I agree, humans in action, hate, hate, hate, vaporize, jump with joy over executions and eternal damnation. Whatever. ------------------------------------------------------------------ To change your Lit-Ideas settings (subscribe/unsub, vacation on/off, digest on/off), visit www.andreas.com/faq-lit-ideas.html
