I hope we have policemen or someone who can trace this.

I have killed other people @kysse, and also killed myself. It's a hidden matter really, I only got to know it in the most unexpected way.

You remember I said some time back that my student incurred my wrath when I discovered that he was a thief. . . well, he went on exile and left me with many unanswered questions.

Then as if that wasn't enough I found myself in a similar but more demanding situation.

It was in the evening and I was in the house. Then I heard my neighbor shouting 'thief!' I ran out. Why I ran out I do not know. I thought I was going to help. But help who?

I saw that one of the robbers had been apprehended and was been dragged on the ground. Then I saw a 'huge' stone landing on him.

'Stop!' I said. Then weakly added that arresting him would be the best thing to do. But deep inside I doubted the logic. Meanwhile the young man was receiving more blows from more people who had come to help.

I said 'stop' again. There was some resistance at first but the beating stopped. I went over to the young man on the ground, and rolled him over with my foot. I wanted to see his face. He looked familiar.

'They had a gun'. My neighbor said. So I frisked the young man. No weapon.

'Let's kill him. If we let him go he'll seek revenge'. Someone said. I couldn't make a move. I couldn't even think.

Then something interesting happened. A group of young men came and demanded to see our victim, and immediately embarked on a rescue mission. 'What right, have you to kill?' They asked. I peered and saw that they were my friends. I saw it fit to let them finish their rescue. No one resisted them. Especially when it appeared that they were also ready to fight. Probably kill.

The next day I learnt that the young man was alive. I felt relieved. But then a certain old man came to me days later and said that the young man had died. I disputed. But then a thought struck me; what if the young man was dead? Was I responsible for the death? That's when I realized that saying 'don't kill' was just as good as killing him. And that raising a finger against anyone is equal to killing. So. is directing anger at a person, or not wishing him well. And these are the kinds of things I've been doing all my life though I've been hiding it even from myself.

What you're saying resonates with the default psychology of many if not most of us. At least that's how I 'unclogged' my mind. In fact, by having this default psychology I had a 'theory' that made me feel;
- secure
- normal and
- Righteous

But the more I think about this default psychology the more I realize it's the choke factor, of life in general.
Perhaps at this point I should mention Karl Menninger's 'Man against himself' in it this psychiatrist outlines the mechanism with which humans punish themselves in what appears as 'normal life'.

The reason(s) that made us to kill the thief are the very reasons that make him a thief. This default psychology is one of self destruction because it's neither true nor consistent.

By acknowledging that we are;
- Insecure
- Special and
- Evil,
One is transformed first to Cain, then sees the meaning of God's curse on him, and why the curse prompted the building of the tower of Babel, which is also the of religion.

The religious person has no authentic psychology. He can only be a frustrated hypocrite. And the tension is too high that religions can only multiply and increase discord.

So does politics take the course we so bemoan!

PS. Do you mean dogs also see the sun as yellow? Not black? What color is the sun really?

tycho what's your take on 'fundamentols' ? yu find it funny?
