OK, shifting ground from religion to psychology. Plus, Freud, really?

The man's a 19th century carryover into the 20th. We have learned a few things about the mind since Freud.

Still, super ego and id. Do, you remember "Forbidden Planet"? Morbius, the Krell, and "monsters of the id". The eternal battle between the rational and the animal. The base and the Divine in each of us.

Being human is learning how to control the animal within. That's what childhood is about. You learn control and become an adult.

Without conscience there is no freewill. Wow, so psychopaths have "no free will". G-d just creates them as innocent tigers to go around killing people.

Way to go G-d!

Kind of sucks to be them though. How do you feel about child molesters? Lots of them have no conscience. I guess they are more of G-d's little jokes on the rest of us.
