For the purpose of defining what is "normal", most people is
everyone.

As far as my questions being pointed, they were.  Millhaven was saying
that marrage is obsolete.  I was pointing out that most people do not
think so. Most people connect with another and create a family.  I
don't know why, but this is the norm. Hence this is the normal thing
to do.

Some may choose not to, but many others don't do so because they are
not normal.  People who do not connect with others like normal people
do are considered sociopaths.

I know that some equate sociopath and psychopath, but I have also seen
a distinction between the two.  I think there are grades of
everything.  I don't think all forms of sociopath are psychopaths.  I
might be wrong, but I think there is a difference even if I have my
terms wrong.

As I wrote the original post, I knew someone among the pedantic m*****
would point that out.  I am used to this here at AFCA.


Sorry you took any of this personally.  Live how you choose.  I was
answering your post when I pointed out that my lifestyle is the
typical or "normal" thing to do.  This was my answer as to "why".  I
am driven to live this way.  I like it.  It was not an attempt to say
that those who are not are "wrong".  Sorry if it sounded that way.
