This is the problem. Continual rantings about woo are pretty much indistinguishable from someone who is mad. But society won't dare consider you mad for the former, thus allowing some actually mad people to miss getting the help they need.

But enrico probably is in a mental institute of some sort. I'm being serious, he is really the craziest most deluded (and probably the most dangerous) person on this forum, and that's saying a lot all things considered.
He's been here, what, 2 and bit years and I would struggle to cite just one post that makes any sort of sense.
The guy is a loony tune. Talking to him only reinforces his delusion that he is communicating something. I advise what I've always advised. Ignore him, and don't respond to his obvious baits. He is a waste of everyone's time. Our job isn't to provide help (which I agree I think he needs), after all.

Oh I see. Yes, that is a real possibility, I agree. His contact with the world outside his imagination does seem extremely limited.

If I had to guess I would say he's borderline schizophrenic above and beyond simply deluded. Meh, I ain't a doctor.

But really, I've met people who would otherwise be considered "sane" who talk pretty much like this. Just not all the time. That's an important point.

I don't get it - who is this enrico guy spoken of and where did he say his name was enrico?

Oy, please do not offend looney tunes.
That's what I was thinking! What did the Looney Tunes do to deserve such opprobrium!?
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.

We're all overlooking the possibility that Rik is really an admirably tenacious Poe -- maybe the greatest ever.
No, I don't really believe it myself, but temporarily indulging the thought allows me to be charitable: he's actually bright and creative enough to have come up with such a moronic, disingenuous onscreen persona.
