    A woman was arrested after she allegedly ripped a child’s
    teeth out while claiming the child “had a demon in her.”

    According to the Raleigh County Sheriff’s Office, deputies
    responded to a child abuse report in the Lester area of
    Raleigh County on Thursday, June 19, 2025.

    Once on scene deputies were able to determine that the
    suspect, identified as Rebecca Bailey, had allegedly
    pinned her five-year-old daughter down and tried to
    pull the young girl’s teeth out. Witnesses said Bailey
    was yelling that the girl “had a demon inside her”
    while she was holding a cross.

    Two of the five-year-old’s bottom teeth were pulled out.

    According to the Sheriff’s Office, a family member woke up
    and got the child away from Bailey until deputies were
    able to arrive.

    . . .

    Wow !

    But, just a few hundred years ago, this sort of delusion
    might have been considered normal - people thought demons
    and witches were hovering around everywhere. They'd
    tear out, burn out, the demons and be congratulated.

    'Reality' IS what 'most people' agree on. Rational
    science only covers a small bit of that territory.

    100 years from NOW ... who knows ?

    All person's views of "reality" are notional. It's been shown that a person's "reality" can be twisted by outside factors. It's been shown that a person's "reality" is limited by their sensory apparatus.

    And when you bring memory into it, hoo boy!

    Nothing about reality being "what people agree on".

    Au contraire, it's well known that a large group of people can be convinced
    of a reality that doesn't really exist en toto. For example, Trump and his satraps in the alternative-facts industry have convinced millions that he actually won the 2020 presidential elections, that he's some kind of savvy businessman looking out for them, and that he's a good Christian.

    It may be "reality" to them but it is in fact only an
    opinion. The definition specifically requires actual
    existence.


    And when you bring memory into it, hoo boy!

    I agree. That is why eyewitness testimony is almost
    useless.

    We will disagree here. TDS is apparent.

    And when you bring memory into it, hoo boy!

    Buddha would agree.

    It's not that there isn't a base reality out
    there, it's just that mostly-hairless apes
    raised on this boring sudo-3D corner of space
    can never see it - we're not smart enough, we
    are hostage to our limited senses, we are the
    evolutionary products of what's needed HERE
    and NOW. So, we fill in the gaps, invent
    convenient truths and rules that make us feel
    we've got the good bead on things yet we are stuck
    seeing things through human-colored glasses.

    Plato said about the same in his allegory of
    the cave ... well "led up to it" because they'd
    have probably poisoned him too if he'd writ
    the last paragraph :-)

    Nearest thing to 'objective' will be some of
    the hard quantifiable science stuff and some
    levels of math.

    Sucks, doesn't it ?

    Nothing about reality being "what people agree on".

    Au contraire, it's well known that a large group of people can be convinced of a reality that doesn't really exist en toto. For example, Trump and his satraps in the alternative-facts industry have convinced millions that he actually won the 2020 presidential elections, that he's some kind of savvy businessman looking out for them, and that he's a good Christian.

    And if you think Trump is bad, check the track
    record of the commie left :-)

    At least the religious fanatics make it sound
    'more artistic' than politicians ...

    A woman was arrested after she allegedly ripped a child’s
    teeth out while claiming the child “had a demon in her.”

    According to the Raleigh County Sheriff’s Office, deputies
    responded to a child abuse report in the Lester area of
    Raleigh County on Thursday, June 19, 2025.

    Once on scene deputies were able to determine that the
    suspect, identified as Rebecca Bailey, had allegedly
    pinned her five-year-old daughter down and tried to
    pull the young girl’s teeth out. Witnesses said Bailey
    was yelling that the girl “had a demon inside her”
    while she was holding a cross.

    Two of the five-year-old’s bottom teeth were pulled out.

    According to the Sheriff’s Office, a family member woke up
    and got the child away from Bailey until deputies were
    able to arrive.

    . . .

       Wow !

       But, just a few hundred years ago, this sort of delusion
       might have been considered normal - people thought demons >>>>>>>    and witches were hovering around everywhere. They'd
       tear out, burn out, the demons and be congratulated.

       'Reality' IS what 'most people' agree on. Rational
       science only covers a small bit of that territory.

       100 years from NOW ... who knows ?

    no one will have teeth by then

      Yea, they will ... evolution doesn't work
      that fast.

      Teeth are USEFUL.

      Quantum-med atom-rearrangment ? Possible.
      Perfect health & remakes.

      Unless the 'AI' hates all humans.

    All person's views of "reality" are notional. It's been shown that a person's >>"reality" can be twisted by outside factors. It's been shown that a person's >>"reality" is limited by their sensory apparatus.

    It may be "reality" to them but it is in fact only an
    opinion. The definition specifically requires actual
    existence.

    You just don't get it, do you?

    And when you bring memory into it, hoo boy!

    I agree. That is why eyewitness testimony is almost
    useless.

    Nothing about reality being "what people agree on".

    Au contraire, it's well known that a large group of people can be convinced >>of a reality that doesn't really exist en toto. For example, Trump and his >>satraps in the alternative-facts industry have convinced millions that he >>actually won the 2020 presidential elections, that he's some kind of savvy >>businessman looking out for them, and that he's a good Christian.

    We will disagree here. TDS is apparent.

    TDS is as I described above. A cockeyed view of the "reality" of Trump's lifelong malfeasance.

    So you believe the 2020 election was stolen, that Trump is an
    excellent businessman looking out for your best interests and that
    he's a good Christian?

    I think you just proved Chris's point.

    Exactly right. TDS is misused by right-wingnut knuckle-draggers to smear Trump opponents as being irrational. It is *exactly* the opposite. TDS is the mental affliction that affects pro-Trump people — the Trumpswabs — and leaves them incapable of seeing that Trump is:

    * the most thoroughly corrupt president in history
    * a totally abject failure as a businessman
    * a serial adulterer
    * a rapist
    * a convicted felon
    * an insurrectionist
    * utterly lawless
    * the worst threat to the Constitution in history

    All of those things are true, and that's only the start of a long list. TDS is the mental debility that leaves people either unable to see it, or so thoroughly
    lacking in character that they just overlook it.
