Yes, it’s amazing how devoid of ideas and concepts humans are. Even though we have all the proof that any intelligence primate would need that a specific course of action will end badly, we always seem to do it again and again.

Sun, 01 Oct 2006 21:19:50 +0000http://whynow.dumka.us/2006/09/30/vive-la-resistance/#comment-17929You know, I’m reading a book and, interestingly, it describes what’s going on right now with enemy combatants, xenophobia, religious problems (yes, Bush has a problem with Islam as does much of the West), toture, and conning leaders. I’m reading a book about the Spanish Inquisition and the events (so far) from about 1390 to 1600 (only that time it was against Jews, conversos (Jews forced to convert but accused of still practicing Judaism), and later on Erasmusians and illuminists (accused of being Lutherans/Calvinists and other forms of Protestants). The practices, you asked, well, anyone could accuse anybody of these offenses, the accused did not have access to the evidence, testimony, and could not face their accusers. The accused would be tortured and, alas!, would plea guilty to anything. Sounds familiar?
