I certainly didn't mean to put you in the same category. Obviously I don't think that about you.

I am just trying to understand. I have never liked labels or diagnosis either, or to be put in a certain box, or a certain check mark on a chart. Nowadays I don't really care. I know I am a whole person and not a label.

How can you talk about things without giving things names or labels or descriptive terms. It is impossible. Evil is a label. How do you define it though?

How do you describe or explain why the guy in Fort Hood did what he did? You could just say he is evil but that doesn't tell you much.

I agree Hiltler and Pol Pot were evil. Although I don't believe in the devil or hell. Why were they evil? What made them that way? Something was obviously very wrong with them. Maybe Hitlers Mommy smoked a lot of crack the whole time she was pregnant....I dunno.

I think we should try to find out answers to these questions. Maybe we can prevent the next guy at Fort Hood from twisting off.
