Untreated
 
Big question for the day: How many of our institutions are the result of untreated mental illness? I think religion is the easy one to see, but how about the paranoia that feeds various government interventions, or the destruction that justifies them? Something to ponder on my way to work.

There are 3 possible reasons for mental (("illnesses")) DISABILITIES.

A. You are being punished by GOD.
B. You have a legitimate gift and don't know how to use it.
C. Sickness has bestowed you and you are truly ill.

"...and the first two don't count."

Been waiting a long time for that cliche to truthfully apply. Thanks JBKlyde!

I'm not really sure what your thanking me for but one of my "demands" to the judge was that we get together on thanksgiving.

Did everyone lose their ever-lovin' minds while I slept?

It's not just here, other places I've heard people talking gibberish. I wonder if something has happened to me that I'm not processing what I hear correctly.

So, why (and when) will I be confused? :confused:
