Mental Illness and Evil

What is the difference between mental illness and evil? As example consider the following obnoxious post.


Consider the pain caused by such a post for those with genuine difficulties. Several responses have pointed out the obvious. Terminally ill – why spend your time on a forum? Multiple organ failure tends to lead to rapid death and not to “Off to see the Dr, wish me luck ! Back Later”. DUK were warned of such behaviour.


Perhaps the greater evil is committed by those that allow such posts to continue.

I see DCUK have been looking for a new Moderator.

I think that the problem with their moderation is that no one with a brain or sense of responsibility would take on the job if they had any idea what it entailed or that they would get little support from the management. if they tried to take on the likes of Kman. I think it is natural for anyone to have felt sympathy with the original and early subsequent posts. After that it soon became obvious what was going on.

Having gone so far it will take something to stop him. When a close relative of mine suffered complete organ failure she was given only a few hours to live. She did survive but spent weeks in Intensive care and High Dependency wards.

Kman is to be congratulated on his robust constitution.

So true. It is plain to see some posters are mentally ill, it could be argued they know no better.

What excuse have the Mods for allowing this rubbish to continue ?
