Good and Evil

No, you know what? I'm NOT sorry.

The topic of this post wasn't about Ina's pain - it was about the concept of Good and Evil. Discussions of sociopaths and psychopaths fit into the defining of those terms.

I'm tired of being pursued by Topic Police here, and until a Moderator or Admin tell me to cease and desist I'm going to keep posting what I want to post. If Ina has a problem with it she is more than welcome to come directly to me and tell me, but until that time I don't see that I've derailed this conversation at all, only added to it. I'm sorry Warri if you see it differently, but I'm also sad to see this board falling into the hands of a few self-appointed Guardians of the Public Good.

I'm standing with you on this as well Phil, I see where you are absolutely dead on. I was thinking about it after I apologized and was bothered as well. I'm glad I didn't say anything because you said it way better then I could have even thought of!

I want to thank every one of you that has taken the time to ponder this question. I have run from anything that even resembled a religion, mainly because I couldn't find a nitch in which I could fit into, and my lack of education.
I can feel my depression starting to lessen, and I think it will not be a long time before I return to my regular optimistic out look. I guess too much "stuff" just came at me all at once, and then kept coming. Your patience has been a life saver for me.
I am quieting down I feel. I can't tell you how much you have helped me. Every one of you.
Lately I've been doing a lot of just reading your posts, and just trying to post enough to let ya'll know I'm still here. I can't tell you how much you have help me put my thoughts back together.:bighug:

Hey everybody, I meant what I said above. No apologizes or defending are necessary. I just needed all of your thoughts. And it take a lot to offend me, and no one has come even close.:hide:
 
Even though technically you can say that discussing whether a movie was about a sociopath, or a psychopath, is okay on a topic about good and evil, and probably would have been fine any other time; I think that you are following the "letter of the law ", but missing the spirit of the conversation in this instance, Sifu.

We all know that Ina has been struggling with the recent loss of her son, and how hard it was for her to even share some of her life's pain with us (her best friends).
If we were talking in person with her right now; I truly believe that your compassion for her would have kept the conversation on track to support Ina in this hard time; and you could have had a private/separate discussion about the movie character with NWLady in a more appropriate time.

I know this didn't quote anything by me, but it was after what I posted. If this is to me, would you mind telling me what you mean by it? I truly don't get the connection, if it was a shot at me. My apologies if I misunderstood, Denise

Not aimed at you at all, NWLady.
I was verbal jousting with Phil but some other posts came between his and mine.
We've buried the hatchet and peace has broken out.

:peace:
 
Oh, I see now, I was hoping it wasn't at me. Thanks again Phil, I wish I was just a little bit smarter, ok, maybe a lot:lofl:

I'm sorry to say this, Phil and NWLady, but I don't think this side issue is really helping the OP all that much. Ina has spoken of her pain in this thread and first it was derailed by mention of male nipples and now it is wandering off course in an abstract discussion of the difference between psychopaths and sociopaths.

Did you both miss the revelation that tomorrow is the birthday of the son whom she still mourns? Take off the emotional blinkers and think before you keep going in this thread. Start another if you want to explore these ideas any further. Enough is enough on this one.

I disagree Warrigal, there was no intention here to be insensitive to Ina or her thread. I just read her post now about her son's birthday tomorrow, and my heart goes out to her, as I know this is a very sad and difficult time for her.

There are no topic police here, and conversations can lead anywhere on a forum with numerous people participating in the conversation. The psychopath and sociopath discussion was related to good and evil to be sure. You can certainly say how you feel, but the stop sign, guilt trip, and instruction to start another thread is over the line here.

Mea culpa, Seabreeze, and for the record, we've all shaken hands and made up.
