Fanatical

            Dos said to Padoke, as a member of another species that is exposed to citizens as much as you are and you are capable of articulating your observations, I would like to ask you something.

            What do you make of large groups who hold very strong views, that are more like the views of an artist, rather than an ordinary somebody getting on with their existence?

            Padoke said, that is a big question, don’t be surprised if the blog editor intervenes to reduce the possibility of me upsetting those exposing themselves to the blog.

            Dos said, how could anyone get upset with a nice old dog.

            Padoke said, it seems to be the case that when some citizens get socialized into closed communities with a strong belief system; they are instructed to do what they are told. This is most effective, because of the use of an implied disciplinary stick when they are children. When asked why they wear inappropriate clothing for the weather, hop around in a circle and believe they are special and feel sorry for everyone else, they usually answer, I follow in my father’s footsteps. On and on through the generations their beliefs continue.

            When an artist carries on with unusual behaviour, we say, ‘they are experimenting with the what if’.

            Dos said that is interesting, one group is conservative, the other is radical, yet they have similarities.

            Exactly Dos, strong convictions, where only they can see the logic.
