Thanks Keith. As twaddle goes it's really quite enjoyable. What is sad is that whole sections of society fall for it. You might remember the British newspaper Sunday Sport that was filled full of often quite funny twaddle, such as "World War 2 Bomber fund on Moon", and "World's Ugliest Woman Dies after Look in Mirror"

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
