I actually hate sounding crazy. But I prefer it to *being* crazy.

Too true. But it really is choice A or choice B in this arena, isn't

it? Hitler said (something like) " The bigger the lie, the more it

will be believed " . In this case, the bigger the truth, the harder it

is to get accross because the lies are just too enormous and

plentiful. The cruel joke here is that we didn't invent all the

things out there which effect our children and they're coming so

hard and fast that, in order to discuss them, ward them off, ask for

help in warding them off, etc., it's necessary to name them. Then

the trap is to come off like a loon.

Someone wrote a piece for this cause called " Cassandra's Threads " (I

heard about it from someone on this list and would love to read it,

but can't find it on the web). I guess the title refers to

Cassandra, the prophet of the Trojan war. The gods cursed her to

tell the truth (predicting the outcome of the war) with the catch

that no one would believe her. She stood on a wall shouting out the

truth and went mad- the " Cassandra on the wall " effect. The analogy

has been made about many causes in the past which met with severe

resistant but turned out to be based in fact.

I don't plan on losing it. Too much to do. :-)

I meant that basically the folks who don't see the truth are " crazy " in a

sense -- ie they are not in touch with reality. The " Cassandra Complex "

does not threaten my sanity -- at least not these days. It does frustrate me

and cause me emotional pain, in part because I am a very social person and I

hate watching people suffer needlessly because they just do not believe it

to be true. It is hard at times for me to just keep my mouth shut. On the

other hand, I know that trying to cram the truth down someone's throat

simply doesn't work. The act of trying to force it makes them much more

likely to reject it out of hand and to be become resistent to EVER listening

to it at some point in the future.
