: : >>> The central issue of Type 5 is not FEAR anymore than it is for any other type. That's terrible word choice that misses the key neurosis of type. I've argued this on the mainboard... I've argued it here. What the hell are you afraid of?
: Fear is the extremely basic motivation, supposedly, which braches off into less basic things, such as, for fives, the "fear" of being useless in the world and etc.
: I think the basic motivation of every person is to be at peace with themselves. A one may send a killer to jail and tell themself that they did the right thing whick was just even though that person will live forever in confinement. That gives the one peace.
: A two (hypothetically speaking) would perhaps give the killer mercy, because in their mind and heart, that is what would give them peace.
Interesting POV... is that because something is out of balance or disrupted in the individual?
