Hi MA,
Sorry to butt in here ;-) But I thought I would try and clarify the terminology. Delusion is the act of deluding or basically deceiving and deception. My statements and musings are verisimilar or probable and require verification.
Subtle but distinct difference.
Your hangup with victimization is the problem. In any event or action in which two participants are engaged a certain amount of culpability is immediately placed upon both for simply participating. Living life in other words is risky. This is completely unacceptable to your sensibilities and when I take it even a step further and point out that all energy moves with specific harmonic motions this is simply outrageous.
A tall lamp post is more likely to be struck by lightning than a fence post. To the knowledgeable observer this is understood. To the emotional, untrained observer the events are simply random and the post was just struck with no rhyme or reason behind it.
If my hypothesis is correct and "victims" of crime are at high risk because of certain personal magnetics they carry around with them unaware - than this is much like the lightning and the post.
One sees that there is a scientific process behind the personal exchanges that occur in society.
In victimization however, everyone is lilly white and carry no such magnetics. Magnetics are something that is repugnant to the victimization process.
Even religion, for all its flaws sees the underlying truth when they state "God had a reason". That this reason is a magnetic situation is totally unknown but that all reactions are caused by actions is generally understood.
In the world of magnetics - even if you call other kids bad names in grade school - this can result in being called much worse things later in life. Cause and effect. Energy regeneration. If one keeps a dollar extra in change given accidentally, this can lead to being shortchanged a much larger amount in the future.
All "victims" are variables or X. The perpetrator or event is a Y variable. Some unseen equation is usually at work that causes a relationship between X and Y.
This does not mean that laws need to be changed. Crime is crime and laws are laws. The only thing that we need to change is the victimization process which never looks inward to discover the magnetic cause of the crime/event.
This is very unfortunate from my point of view - because if you don't change the magnetics you are doomed to repeat and regenerate such type of encounters.
And again to make it quite clear - this takes not one iota of guilt off of a perpetrator of a crime. The robber can't say "I was harmonically drawn to the bank - it attracted me to it!" That won't wash. However, there is fundamental truth in the statement that a bank will attract criminals and thieves.
Pointing the fingers at others is all the rage. However, the intelligent response always tries to look underneath the surface to find and change any magnetics which may be attracting such negative encounters.
The left can see that so easily when a Palestinian suicide bomber blows up completely innocent Israelis - yet somehow liberals sense of mutual culpability becomes completely fogged over when it deals with anything personal.
But I am supposedly deluded for thinking in such terms?
