“I suppose in some ways, all over the world "crazy" is a term of abuse and I think that is something that should be stopped. In Ireland "crazy" is a term of abuse and people are terrified of anything that they conceive to be crazy. And the people believed to be crazy won't be treated compassionately, they will treat you horribly and use it as a reason to dismiss anything you would think, do, say or feel, so you're rocking into a self esteem trap.” PeopleThinkingWorldWayFeelsShouldSelfReasonUseTermCrazySelf EsteemTreatsAbuseTreatedEsteemIrelandTrapsTerrifiedBeing Crazy Author:Sinead O'Connor

“The book [Saving Calvinism] argues in each case that the Reformed tradition is broader and deeper than we might think at first glance - not that there are people on the margins of the tradition saying crazy things we should pay attention to, but rather that there are resources within the "mainstream" so to speak, which give us reason to think that the tradition is nowhere near as doctrinally narrow as the so-called "Five Points of Calvinism" might lead one to believe.” PeopleThinkingGivingShouldFirstsBelieveBookReasonMightSpeakPayAttentionCasesFiveCrazyResourcesTraditionDeeperArguingSavingPay AttentionMainstreamGlancesMarginsCrazy ThingsCalvinism Author:Oliver D.

The people I talked to were not, on the surface level, crazy. They were quite nice, quite normal, employed, and actually were wealthier than the press at that time would have led us to believe. At that time, the narrative was that these were all working poor but these were not working poor.
