Look at the basher phenomenon as part of the big picture. In folklore, this is recognized and accepted as essential. In their view of old, if the Devil did not exist, we would have to invent it. The proverb goes, "he who rests, rusts". Helps us keep moving and thinking. So, who is the Devil? Who is the Dark One? This board is one of the more interesting because our roles reflect those of a broader society. We have our High Priest, policeman, teacher, philosopher, commentator, councilor, politician, doctor, soldier, reporter, lawyer, engineer,housekeeper, clown, historian, etc. The sum forms a working unit. This being so, it is also true that a society can get out of wack if the balance is upset. Right now, we are experiencing overposting by the Devil and the Incubus. Where is a good exorcist when you need one? |
