but in one of his posts, he said that he is mentally disturbed
and he mentioned a particular mental disorder.

According to your reasoning, Fido,
the medical personnel in mental hospitals are both
INSANE and
in DANGER.
I do not agree with that.

If you put a guard over him the guard begins to suffer the same mentality... People get drawn into their situations, and it is for this reason that shrinks are right behind cops in suicides... The people who work with the insane are in danger, especially from themselves... Just like people in the army are often more in danger from themselves and each other...
I have heard of some of that.

I desire that the calculator between my ears
function ACCURATELY.
Fido wrote:Your brain is much more than a calculator... We have the moral form of the heart, but the heart as the center of emotion has been replaced by the mind, another moral form; but it is all in your brain... You desire that is should work... Often, the criminally insane have brains that work as well as calculators, but they have no moral restraint, no tie to humanity and not a shread of human compassion... Let me have the mind I have that works well enough and still cannot prove that one and one equals two... For me, life is lived by the braille method: I FEEL my way through...
Fido, in another thread, u mentioned Schizophrenia.
Not long ago, I saw an account on TV of a fellow whose brother
was living with him, who suffered from Schizophrenia.
One evening, while the fellow was feeling safe and quiet,
his Schizophrenic brother attacked him with a Bowie Knife,
inflicting fatal wounds. (He was brought back to life again.)
Can u see yourself becoming
violent, because of that disorder ?
