American Psycho

Yes I read about the detail in the case of the Amish girls and the reaction of the Amish community - it was in the news all of last week whilst I was in the US. There seems to have been a spate of such murders recently, I can only hope that the problem is not becoming more endemic than I thought it was in the first place.

I read that the Amish console themselves with the fact that the girls are in Heaven having the best time now with Jesus. This is well and good.

Maybe they'd like to think that the killer of the girls made it to Heaven also (having truly repented at the last moment) and that he is with the girls now and everyone is having a nice time, with all the bad stuff - the fear - forgotten. If so, then they are truly like Jesus and are perhaps a good example of what homo sapiens might be in the next stage of their evolution.

In either case, Kelly McGillis looked good in the movie Witness, all of 21 years old that film now.
