Mass-murderer Cho Seung-Hui was crazy. If the medical diagnosis doesn't convince you, then this picture will. Wednesday in Baghdad bombers laid waste to 183 human beings. We don't know who they are, but my sense is that the people who planted and detonated those bombs are evil and not crazy. The latter condition is helpful to mush-heads who never want to blame an individual for the atrocities that he causes. The former condition troubles those suffering from it's-nobody's-fault disorder (INFD). Evil exists. Foolishness does too. One form of foolishness is to deny the existence of evil. The insane befuddle many sufferers of INFD as well. One of INFD's cousin afflictions is LRWHS, known formally as let's-reason-with-him syndrome. Reason, alas, doesn't work with the unreasonable. To believe that it does is a form of unreason.

You and your anti-science rants, Dan!!!

Can you define evil?

Can you define foolishness?
