Robert REASONING



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.
