Regina it really makes one wonder sometimes. So many people who love life and live it to the fullest, we watch them die. They are missed so much by family and people along the way but crud lives. Jodi~for what she did to Travis she should not be allowed to live. No decent human being could do what she did, then she uses her hands to eat! They are nothing but weapons to her. I have to ask myself why? Why does she thrive when so many people even on this board have lost their real meaning for life to death? We have buried parents, spouses, our children, dear friends , and she goes on! She will never know the feeling of wonder when a newborn is placed in her arms, a baby depending on her to eat, a husband coming in saying whats for supper?, a gramma with her first grandchild. She is a miserable imitation of a human being and deserves nothing but death. God help us!!:loveyou:
I always wonder why good people die young- the bad, seem to live forever.
When I was researching the theory of "the bad seed" last year, I came across a couple of articles about good/bad people (I bookmarked them for further study).
First a
theory of why some people are bad- some good:
One article states that there is "the chemistry of morality" and that " 95 percent of the thousands of people I have studied release oxytocin when they receive a positive social signal....Five percent of those I have tested do not release oxytocin after such stimuli. These individuals have many of the traits of psychopaths: they are charming, deceptive, and even self-deceptive."
The author calls oxytocin the "a moral molecule".
Knowing the chemistry of morality gives us keen insights into why most of us are good most of the time, and why some people like Hans Reiser are evil....

And then there's this article about someone doing research about good people dying young:
Maine Criminologist Disproves The Theory That Only The Good Die Young
“Of those who died younger than age 25, 68% fell under the heading of bad. That’s more than double the percentage of the good who died young. A life of crime and drugs really does comes with a price. The Angel of Death is clearly partial to whom he chooses.”

I think missy :jail: lacks empathy and because she doesn't have empathy for other people (or animals), life is not as hard for her as it is for moral or decent people- who try to put themselves in others shoes. She only worries about herself, IMO. I think she thrives because life is "different" for her and how she thinks justifies a lot of the bad things she does. So, I think, when 'normal' people do bad things, it will eat at them, stress them, and generally, make life hard. Stress causes bad things to happen in the body. She doesn't have that kind of "moral stress" and seems to just sail through life- blind to others feeling. IMO.
Don't worry, Nore. Her life is a nightmare for her now and not the life she had wanted before she murdered Travis. It's what she deserves. I think being in :jail: will wear her down- especially when she realizes that people are no longer interested in her.
It's what she deserves- "bad seed", "moral molecule", and all.
(In a fair world good people would live forever, bad people would perish from off the face of the earth, but life isn't always fair. This is the world we live in.)
