   ### - i think so too... but that's only one example because the overall   
   premise included 'other' kinds of mental illness too as thus 'potentially'   
   being closer to an altered state on a daily basis compared to the average   
   man in the street, that being my whole point from the start but which you   
   were refusing to even hear without continually changing the subject, there   
   being nada about what am suggesting that warrants such evasion, and which   
   cued my objection to you screwing around for nada...   
      
   that what the OP originally said/suggested was indeed a generalisation,   
   but that doesn't detract from its content being interesting and/or   
   containing a facet of truth, and didn't deserve being slammed out of hand   
   (unnecessarily rudely i might add)   
      
   i mean, what gives you (or anyone come to that) the right to punch people   
   in the face for something they're saying or commenting on like that??   
   especially if what they're saying/suggesting has some merit to it!?   
   (merit, you've just agreed, would be nice)   
      
   no, it was done out of something 'other' than rational debate, it was done   
   out of cruelty and spite tinged with personal hatred and in my book that   
   kind of bs is bang out of order, especially when the OP is from my group   
   and is being attacked for what is ultimately a fairly intelligent   
   comment/observation (we deal in 'all' subjects here at alt.dreams   
   castaneda, everything in this world & beyond is part of life so no subject   
   is taboo, indeed one has to cover everything that is/exists or it's   
   clearly not complete)
