Subject: RE: BS: 'Some rape victims should take blame'- ??
Amos,

remembering that the current discussion you and I are having stems from this comment.


"All this brouhaha is largely due to a confusion between responsibility (an active causative mind-set) and blame (a passive received flow from others)."


I have shown that this statement is flawed, as the type of responsibility which is relevant to the subject of this thread is not as you describe, and the type you describe is not relevant to the subject of this thread.
