Corrosion and Cut-Off

« Back to Glossary Index

A Thinking Error. You may stop yourself from criminality because of a sincere wish to change, Sentimental or Religious thinking. Sometimes the fear of getting caught is your motivation. You overcome these inhibitions by the processes of corrosion and cut-off. Corrosion is a mental process where you gradually drown out the conscience by repeating and increasing thoughts of the crime. Eventually your desire to commit the crime out-weighs the other thoughts which might have stopped you. Cut-off is a mental process that gets rid of the conscience thoughts quickly and completely. Mostly you use fragmentation to block out the conscience and shift your entire focus onto the crime. You block out thoughts of how bad you’ll feel later.
