I agree completely. We belive as the general society that we are sane because the mojrity of us think similiarly. But it is the insane, the revolutionaries of thought, who make progress in our society. The most important holy men: Jesus, Buddha, Moses, Muhammed, Confucius, Luther, Lao Tzu to name a few were the insane of their respective cultures. It was their bold ideas which helps for civilization to evolve to a higher, wiser society. The insane should be embraced.
