ya, and do you want this or not?
Ooooh yeah, forgot about the banner thing. Thanks! :)
I should probably clarify what kind of question I'm asking here ....
Does Andrea Yates deserve our condemnation for her horrible acts of murder, or our pity?
Was her punishment appropriate?
Unquestionably, many people do suffer from mental disorders that make it difficult or even impossible for them to control their behavior. How can we distinguish impairments that legitimately reduce a person's responsibility for his or her actions from unjustified excuses?
While studying for my Psychology final, I came across the story of Andrea Yates. After reading the story, I found it puzzling that I couldn't come to a final stance on the whole situation. I was wondering, where do you stand? Here is her story told by my Psych book, modified for your reading pleasure ...
" ... consider the tragic story of Andrea Yates, a Texas woman who killed her five young children in a state of extreme despair. She had suffered from clinical depression and psychotic episodes for years and in her blackest depressions became mute and catatonic. She tried to kill herself twice.
Her father, two brothers, and a sister had suffered different degress of mental illness, including depression. Yates was overwhelmed by raising and home schooling all of her children by herself, with no help from her reportedly domineering husband, who permitted her two hours a week of personal time.
Although she suffered a postpartum psychotic episode after the birth of their fourth child and a clinical psychologist warned against her having another, her husband refused to consider birth control, although not for religious reasons; "we want as many as nature will allow," he said. Yates was eventually sentenced to life in prison."

Gah, I guess I tried looking too deep into the topic, now I understand. You'll argue or show disagreement when something directly collides/disagrees with your own personal heiarchy of admirable traits/values. Makes sense to me .....

How does having Humility, Trust, and so on explain why you bother yourself by things "apparently" without importance? Not a bash, just a question.

I always thought that. Think of what they'll play on like oldies stations or in Old People's Homes. I can see a bunch of people on wheelchairs all around the stereo as 50 Cent is blastin ... funny stuff.
I feel the same way preps, skaters, and goths then you feel about "wiggers." Only thing is, I keep my opinions to myself, cause it's not right to openly disrespect someone because they are different, or lead a different lifestyle then yourself .... which you are doing.
No. 23 sucks, that's the whole point of getting drunk.
It goes without saying, but not everything that's said is listened to.
