How Far your obsession can get
Unluckily you can see the fanaticism in people from all ages are growing and getting critical also more common. Fanaticism is a belief or behavior involving uncritical zeal, particularly for an extreme religious or political cases sports or with an obsessiveenthusiasm for a past time hobby . The behavior of a fan with overwhelming enthusiasm for a given subject is differentiated from the behavior of a fanatic’s violation of prevailing social norms thought the fan´s behavior may be judged as odd or eccentric , it does not violate such norms . Fanaticism is an unusual level of devotion to a particular topic, ranging from a sports team to a sciencefiction franchise. Fanatics may transgress social norms in their eagerness to pursue their interests and can alienate or upset people with their zeal. Historically, this term has been closely associated with religious fanaticism, but many other topics can become subjects of fixation or obsession. Several things can characterize fanaticism. One is a sense of devotion with minimal critical analysisor thinking, often paired with intolerance for people who challenge or question the topic of interest. This can differentiate fanatics from more casual fans and people who share the interest; a fanatic will hotly resist anything that might besmirch the reputation of her interests. Fanatics can also be very single minded and intense, and it can be difficult to redirect their attentions onto othertopics.

Fanaticism is the attempt to repress elements for one´s own being for the sake of others , if the fanatic encounters these elements or somebody else , he fights against them passionately , because they endanger the success of his own repression . to be a fanatic is to emulate what one thinks as to those who actually have true power . it is going too far because the spirit has not beentrusted enough to know the limit and so it becomes false praise , false enthusiasm , superstition and spiritual pride . The purpose of the fanaticism is to pass the limits of the obsession, cause some people can’t differentiate between things that they like from things that they are obsess; so they considered the fanaticism levels of obsession ,types of obsession and whypeople go wrong (Fig.1)(Fig.2). Undoubtedly There are different types of fanaticism and also obsessions because people has a lot of taste from different things like some people have political fanaticism, Political anarchists have committed murder over their political differences with others.  Politics is not a bad thing.  The idea of the people discussing and voting their views is a healthy one. The problem is that some people cross the line from discussion to physical violence against others. Many political groups in order to gain power become terrorists like the Farc. On the hand, religious fanaticism have harmed and murdered in the name of religion.  It doesn’t make religion bad or faulty.  It means that some people crossed the line.  It always seemed dissonant to me that people would...
