Carl Jung and the Shadow (Jack E. Othon)

If it is common, is it acceptable?
We have names for people who have many beliefs for which there is no rational justification. When their beliefs are extremely common we call them ‘religious’; otherwise, they are likely to be called ‘mad’, ‘psychotic’ or ‘delusional’…Clearly there is sanity in numbers. And yet, it is merely an accident of history that it is considered normal in our society to believe that the Creator of the universe can hear your thoughts, while it is demonstrative of mental illness to believe that he is communicating with you by having the rain tap in Morse code on your bedroom window. And so, while religious people are not generally mad, their core beliefs absolutely are.

In some parliamentary systems, there is a formal vote by the parliament on a would-be government/prime minister, which/who must then win this vote of investiture. Such a procedure is called positive parliamentarianism, since there must be a positive endorsement of a new, or continuing, government (even if the voters apparently did so). In contrast, under negative parliamentarianism there is no vote of investiture that one must win. A prime minister and government are simply appointed, and they are assumed to be acceptable ("negative" confirmation) unless or until there is a successful motion of non-confidence. In situations where no party wins a majority, positive parliamentarianism is likely to lead to a majority coalition (so it has the votes to be invested), whereas negative parliamentarianism is likely to lead to a minority government of the largest party. Related to this variation, it is also generally the case that it takes longer to form a government under positive parliamentarianism, usually a month and sometimes several months. Broadly speaking, positive parliamentarianism is the more common version globally; however, the United Kingdom, Canada, and the other former British colonies use negative parliamentarianism, as do Austria, France, Portugal, and most Nordic countries.
