ENDING INFANT TRAUMA:
If these men are considered together depth-perception is effected, the newborn child comes into focus, and its message is conveyed. To say that Ted is schizophrenic is dismissive of that message, just as it is dismissive of that message to call Jesus messiah (even if they are serviceable labels, they fix attention on the messenger, thus burying the newborn’s voice). These terms may comfort us by allowing us to believe that the matter is resolved, but it is only repeatedly temporarily silenced.
