Fanaticism is a strong believe in an idea.The case is that in many isntances takes the form of violance. If we are talking of fanatic people, we shouldn't forget the “peace–loving” fanaticism of the jews, who are killing Palestinians and Lebanes everyday, who are feeding and poisoning the world with the "holocaust-lie", a good bussiness, an industry. In WV II whole Europe did suffer, not only the jews!!! We are talkinkg of the Nazis, the Soviets, but we forget the Palestinians who are suffering dayly by tens of thousands the jews fanaticism. Many of ous need not to be remembered who wer the Nazies, the Soviets; Stalin, Hitler, Mao Tse Tung, Churchill, Roosevelt and Truman, but don't try to make us to forget who wer and are the jews,what they did in the XX-th century and are dooing in the XXI-st. We are talking about the Japones and the Nazies did, but we are silent of the horrors the Americans and the English did in in the Pacific and in Europe. Churchill gave the order to bomb Dresden. When he was informed there was no military forces but only refugees, he did say: “Kill of them as many you can”. My native country was dismembered by France, England & USA; destroid by the Soviets, thanks to the Americans and British, however I hate them not!!! A hate non of them, I hate not Stalin, Roosevelt, Churcill,Hitler, because they are dad long ago. Each of them did what the circumstances dictated; each of them fougth for his country. The “choosen-people”, whose loyalty is not exactly the most proverbial, ought to try not to hate, not everyday and everywher to remember what they suffered. The christians has too what to remember. When the Bolshevik Revolution triunfed the “choosen-people” said: “Now the goim will pay for our tears with their blood”. Who will pay for the tears of the Palestinians? It is time to stop talking about that blatant fanciful fantasy: the jewis holocust, —a blackmail,a very lucrative modern industry. There are many holocaust where hundreds of millons had lost their life. Who will pay for them? It is not the fanaticism we have to fight, dear “choosen–people”, but ourselves, worry about the other’s sufferings. If we vant peace it is not sufficient to proclaim it, it is necessary to practice it. If you will practice the peace, there will be no more fanatics!!! Dear “choosen–people”, try not to-be so “choosen”, because all of us are of the same stock!!! Instead of speaking of fanaticism,we should ask, why fanaticism is?

What I love about coming here is seeing what you think, and reading your personal take on things that are happening in the world. This story stands on its own, yes. So why reprint it? Why not just link to it? Why did you not say what fascinated you about it in the original post instead of in the comments section? I see that you are willfully misunderstanding Kent Snyder's life and purpose. There is no way that he would hold Ron Paul responsible for medical debt that he incurred while dedicating his life to the campaign. It seemed like your take on the situation was if only we had universal health care this wouldn't have happened and too bad the libertarian wing of the republican party doesn't believe in universal health care. Ron Paul doesn't score well on those scorecards not because he doesn't care. It's because he always votes "no" when he interprets the bill as beyond the scope of what congress is allowed. He doesn't base his vote on whether or not the idea proposed is a good one or a bad one. He only votes "yes" when congress has Constitutional authority to make that kind of law. He might well think that some of the proposals are "good" but he would vote "no" anyway. Don't you admire that? Brian, I really like your blog and you!

I keep up on the latest information, so if anyone has any questions I can hopefully answer them or direct you to a good resource. One more thing, I have become very knowledgeable on vitiligo.

I didn't develop vitiligo until I was 26 yo after a bad sunburn. I didn't personally notice it until a middle aged woman walked up to me and said "I would die if I had those white spots on my face". That started me to become manic about being staying out of the sun. I wear SPF 85 sun protection to deflect most of the sun rays. I find people are cruel, superficial, and very fake. I was doing very well in a job where I managed a small group of IT people, and had a good re-pore w/the client (I had been staying out of the sun almost totally for a few years). I was promoted to site manager after the client award my company a 4.2 million dollar contract based on both my and my teams skills. Well, everything was going well until I forgot himself one weekend when I took 20 team members on a weekend canoe trip. It had been so long since I had been out in the sun that I didn't realize how much my vitiligo had spread. Well, I tan very easily thats why I stay out of the sun (example: I would tan through the car window in the winter). Since I met with important political appointee in the front offices on a regular basis. I was removed from those duties. (an side: I found that people do not like to be put in a position of being uncomfortable so they avoid it or have it removed if they can) After a few weeks my company found a replacement for me and I became a tech again. After a few months I was removed from the site. Conclusion: I had realized what I had done by going on that weekend trip w/ my team; I exposed my condition which made everyone around me feel uncomfortable. Its a sad commentary when society is today, values looks more important than the measure of the person. Today, I have a job and I don't really care about being tan or not. I am hoping one day they will find a cure (not in my lifetime). Thank god, the woman I married sees me and not my vitiligo. The most important concerns are God and my wife.

Now I just keep telling myself that if this is as bad as it gets, then I'm pretty lucky. I'm living a comfortable life and am very fortunate to have what I have. The feelings of disconnectedness aren't fun, but manageable if you can accept that you have no real control over it anyway.

I am heavily medicated and trying all sorts of spiritual healing stuff to just not have to bloody well think this obsessive thought, that 'nothing is real'. It feels like your life is being de-railed and snatched from under you. I have lost loved ones and people that I genuinely care about because I couldnt get it together. If only we could all put our minds together and come up with the one collective answer to what is a living nightmare. I like to think, if this is all of my creation, I would not be this miserable. I'd be happy or rich or something. I need my life back. Im a 28 year old female battling this terrible thing too.
