and nihilism when really out of touch.
Craig, you should check out Chris Hedges recent comments on moral nihilism. Dr. King also made a similar point in his great speech against the Vietnam war.
The lowest realm of Dante's hell is reserved for those who remain silent during times of moral crisis.
Now I recognize that you're a right wing nut, who really believes Obama is a Muslim, socialist, Kenyan and that Mubarak and the Koch brothers are living Gods. I can give you a pass because of your extreme whackiness and because of the decrepit state of mental health treatment. But lots of our silent brothers and sisters know that terrorism, lies, bullying, and war are morally wrong. They are not as whacked out as you, and I want to know why they are always so silent??? I wonder if our middle class has sunk to a state of moral nihilism as Hedges discusses, and are spiritually dead as doctor King warned about back in 1967.
I'll just keep poking them to see if I can bring them back to life, because I have not wasted away into a state of moral nihilism. For you, I'll pray for mental health!
