In Chapter 6, Menninger showed how some \u201csins\u201d were replaced by \u201csymptoms\u201d as \u201csigns of coping with dis-ease\u201d, where the \u201cdis-ease\u201d derived from the two drives of \u201cseeing pleasure and avoiding pain\u201d.<\/p>\n
In the frame of the nested form, however, \u201csymptoms\u201d do not replace \u201csins\u201d.\u00a0 Instead, \u201csymptoms make sins possible\u201d.<\/p>\n
Thus, Menninger\u2019s argument can be encapsulated in the nested form of crime(sin(symptom)).<\/p>\n
\u201cCrime\u201d puts \u201cthe actuality that is sin\u201d into context.<\/p>\n
\u201cSymptoms\u201d make \u201cthe actuality of sin\u201d possible.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe actualities of sin\u201d make \u201ccrime\u201d appear real.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe actualities of sin\u201d situate various \u201csymptoms\u201d.<\/p>\n
In Menninger\u2019s perspective, even though \u201csin\u201d has been eclipsed by \u201ccrime\u201d and \u201csymptoms\u201d, the term remains important. \u00a0Even if you excluded \u201csins that had been declared crimes\u201d and \u201csins that could be explained as symptoms\u201d, a lot of territory remained.<\/p>\n
From the nested point of view, all the territory remains.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
