The disturbing thing is always at the limits of morality, the past was forged with violence to build our present. Perhaps it is only a matter of time before madness becomes part of normality again.
"...it is only a matter of time before madness..."
I am certain of this, and keep a weather eye out because such things can erupt suddenly. That's why I keep a bugout bag handy. Not for earthquakes, hurricanes, or tsunamis, although it would work for those, but for eruptions of madness.
I got similar thoughts when I visited a bone-decorated chapel in Poland.. it was build&decorated after some great epidemic event, and visitors had a chance of hearing the story behind it - basically corpses laying everywhere, everybody at least slightly sane left the place, and some time after priests moved in and served at least some minimalistic burial to those deceased by collecting the corpses and building the chapel. The story claimed that the chapel was decorated with skulls to provide a form of "reminder" to the local populace.. spooky as fuck.

Well said. that is one for the book of truth.

Yeah, I have been working on my bug out bag, for some time. Its close, everyone can feel it.

It does cause one to think about those that have come and gone before us, but it is creepy, and I'd rather be reminded of our forebears in other ways.
Thanks!
