But hey, if you want to choose that as your standard, you're free to do it. I just hope that you understand (you don't often show signs of this) that people choosing to recognize the spirit is no less ludicrous a standard.
Mock if you will. Hopefully in you're head you will be mocking with the understanding that your ideals are equally as ridiculous.
So Ted Bundy wasn't really a sick bastard because, by your logic, he only committed murder a very small percentage of the time he was alive.

Who is more dangerous? The man who has spent years thinking about and plotting murder or the one who does it while half-mad from emotional stresses? I'll take the latter every time. I prefer animals to devils.

I would only characterize Bundy as a sicko if he murdered when the s*** hit the fan and he wasn't able to think. Otherwise I wouldn't count it towards his true personality.

To bundy I am sure that is exactly why he murdered, to cover up the rape. Eventually it was incorporated into his ritual, thus defining him.
Quaker, Maybe if you had not been on the moon for so long you would have realised that it is in times of stress that true character is shown along with true cowardice. By killing, Bundy showed he dealt with his serial rapist by becoming a serial murderer.

To think is not to act. We all have actions, emotions and thoughts that make themselves evident in action. It is the act that defines us. To deliberately act a certain way in stressful situations indicates the behavior of a human being when all that matters is survival.

It is up to us to view the world within a realistic framework. While Mormon, my faith directly contributed to a greatly lessening of my quality of life from when I was a child up until I left the church at 25. Those who say Mormonism or any other fringe religion is not harmful are full of s***.

It may have harmed you or more specifically people within it harmed you. That does not make it universal.

Perhaps but humans don't spend much of their lives in a frenzy trying to survive.

Mercury, I sense you were breathing harder as you typed this sentence. It is okay if you are somewhat enamored of Nehor. We are very nonjudgmental.
