when i first read about the disease called lesch nyhan, i was so terribly angry. i thought, "how SICK can satan really be to create such a horrible disease".
it is actually comforting to think that god doesn't care, 'cause he doesn't exist... if that's what you believe...
anyone familiar with this disease? or others that blow your mind?

calliope,
i hear what you are saying, for sure. all the diseases and viruses F me up too when i think about their nature for a moment. it's a heady place where you are right now. i know, i've been there. where you look around, and all you see are apes in suits, going to and from work, and the cogged wheel of biology spinning madly through our lives, destroying all our precious metaphors of what perfection once was to us.
i feel it for sure.
i can't say anything else, because honestly, i have nothing more to offer. i could offer science, like some creationists would offer god. but the fact of the matter is, abstractions aside, there will always be horrid diseases and viruses for all organisms on this planet, inculding us for as long as we are around.
there is no real emotonal sense to make of it. only technical sense, which depending on your personality may mean everything, or not as much.
