I’ll not name names or name political games but I need to say that the moral divisiveness that we’re experiencing in America seems to be affecting my mental disorders; primarily resulting in what feels like bipolar rapid-cycling.

We’ve taken sides in a bloody battle in which each side boasts of ‘50% approval ratings.’ We seem to have forgotten basic grammar school grading where a score of 50 is failure; an ‘F,’ as one late-night comedian said.

We’re experiencing not only moral vitriol but actual and implied violence against one another and, as my rapid-cycling increases, I personally feel blood-boiled one minute, culpable, and ashamed and removed the next.

We once disagreed and engaged in controlled debate, attempting to convince the other of our views. Now we are name-calling and self-avowed enemies of one another.

We once cared about moral high-grounds and now engage in the stench of pig-dung battles.

“How can people be so heartless? How can people be so cruel?”

I’m as guilty as anyone. I’m passionate. I can be aggressive. I have been cruel.

But this. I’ve never experienced this kind of moral squalor.

It’s making me crazy.

I’m sad and frightened and angry and frustrated and helpless and there is no medicine to fight these feelings. There is no therapy to soothe the evil of this staggering moral division.

So I’m a little more crazy today than yesterday and will be crazier tomorrow and I see no end in sight and I’m uncertain of just how much more I can absorb.
