Ahh. Well, that's entirely reasonable. When you have a world, I assure you
that I won't intrude with my safening attempts. But while we're talking about
our world, I think it's fair game.

I think that I can extend this logic to a ludicrous example that you won't buy,
but will prove that the logic is broken. It sounds like you're saying that it
is my responsibility to protect my kids from, for instance, being molested.
Fine, I'll go with that. But it seems that further, you are saying that it is
not the molestor's responsibility to _not_ molest my kids. I don't buy that.
And neither do you.

I don't think that makes it healthy or good.

What if I said yes? What is a psychologist? I'm not currently employed to
provide theraputic counseling. I have eight years of college teaching me about
how the mind works and how people learn. The emphasis in my case is on how to
teach, but there is a huge overlap between the fields of education and
psychology.

I know about the environment that you are advocating the projection of for
the general public.

Does psychology make you uncomfortable? (Actually that's a joke...it was meant
to sound like one of those bone-head open-ended questions from hell that
shrinks ask.)

You're right. I just went back through your posts to prove you wrong, and I
can't. I misinterpreted your stance. Sorry.
