Robert’s Reasoning on the recent news about Bill Cosby
Perhaps the most profound statement in my lifetime was
Buckminster Fuller’s observation that “We know less than one tenth of one per
cent about anything.”
Bill Cosby was/is an immensely popular entertainer and
comedian. It has been publicized in the
news media this November that there is a history of accusations against him by
women claiming sexual abuse going back some thirty or forty years.
According to the news reports the nature of the abuse was
that Cosby drugged women and then when they were unconscious he put his penis
inside their vaginal opening.
Clearly that is a violation of the victim and of the
law. The damage suffered by the victims
(perhaps as many as thirty so far) is primarily mental /psychological.
Cosby is now trying damage control regarding his valuable
public image.
To put this into perspective is an individual matter for
each person who considers it.
Relevant factors include:
1.
The clearly selfish motivation.
2.
The feminine mystique and heterosexual DNA each
different for each person.
3.
Our moral constructs also different for each
person.
This offers a masterful construct for intelligent analysis.
