What is Madness?

I was watching a movie today, is named "In the Mouth of Madness", is pretty much about a guy that ens up trapped between fiction and reality; now there is a theme that called my attention in the movie: "madness".

In a point of the movie, one of the characters says something about sanity and insanity; "when you are sane, is because you agree with the majority's opinion and beliefs, but what happen when you are still sane, and the rest of the majority is now believing in something completely different, then my friend, the insane one is you".

And think about it, what would happen if all of the sudden, everyone who you know urn insane? and I mean the same kind of craziness, they will all agree on disagreeing with you, and it wouldn't matter how hard you tray to prove that you are the sane one, because the media is now against you.

Which brings me to my last point; how can we know that insane people, is not on the sanity of our own insanity? Fun to think about it ha!

I recommend you this movie, even though is an oldie, is a good one. (and yes as an oldie, be nice about the special effects and that stuff). Here is the link if you want to watch it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGf7ud5dCfk&feature=plcp
have a good one...
