He added: “These are difficult issues for
Muslims and the Catholic church … Extremism
is not just about Muslims, there are a lot of
rightwing extremists.”He gave another

Eric Berne has written an interesting book called 'Games people play', and in it he outlines the reasons why people play games. He describes structural hunger, physical hunger and contact hunger as the motives behind games. But today I have discovered another and even more fundamental motive. The motive behind games even in bodies politic is that of keeping windows open in a context where dark forces prevail, and innermost desires and wishes are threatened.

So games create themselves, and roles are both consciously and unconsciously allotted and shared. Thought police emerge, and every participant is turned into a 'guard' of the other.

One can avoid thought police not just by insisting on thinking for himself, but by understanding and complying with the dark forces within.
