Well, dw3041, you can accuse us of not wanting to help, but why would we post that somebody should possibly see a shrink if we didn't want to help?

Anyway, I agree with you on the modern medicine...

IMHO hallucinogens do not allow people to perceive other realities. Hallucinogens seem to mess with people's minds, and harm their minds. It seems like what is experienced while people are on drugs...

Well, it worked for a while. He's still completely nutso but he keeps his nutso to himself, and doesn't cause people any problems. The only problem is the last couple of years his marijuana addiction...

Right ... western medicine treats the symptom, not usually the problem. The doctor can tell you to eat less saturated fat, but you don't, so they give you a pill that tries to help, but causes 10...

I do agree with his point, though, about the psychologists and psychiatrists. Psychology is a soft science, and the ones I've met were just clueless. But they can sometimes talk you...

IMHO it is proof of insanity. But then again, IMHO seeing Satan is also proof of insanity, therefore a lot of 'religious' people would be considered insane as well.

Obviously, there, society does...

Actually, I was really heavy into this in college, neuroscience and psychobiology and drugs. The brain chemistry of many of these drugs is well known, and the effects typically show a pattern.

And DSM-IV, or whatever the current # is now.

Anyways, the common accepted truth, if you will, by society, is that there are no demons, and people who think there are, are insane.

IMHO judging...

No, I'm not ignoring the claims.

I also did a lot of research into surrealistic art when I was in Art History. Surrealist art is where you find the pictures of demons, etc.

Turns out there was...

Basically the reason I think demons don't exist is because:

a) I've never seen one.
b) People I've talked to who claimed that they saw them eventually wound up exhibiting maladaptive behavior...

If I could boil down his arguments, they seem to be:

a) It's impossible to know it all. Therefore, why discount the possibility that (demons) exist?

b) Psychologists don't know everything....

Your brain is a bunch of chemicals, etc. People who are insane have a problem with their brain, chemicals, etc.

Yes, psychologists don't know everything. Psychiatrists don't know everything.

This is a really good point, because I had a talk this weekend with my aunt about my uncle.

She said that he had a big accident at one point, ran into a tree, which required CAT scans. They found...

Okay, sorry. I read back through the posts again and you were the one saying you met people possessed. I got you confused with Bel for a minute there.

Okay, fine, yes some people in my family are...

The reason I suggest seeking professional help is that I've met besides my uncle and father several people who went nuts. 3 of whom wound up in the mental hospital, completely disfunctional.

Sorry but ain't no such thing as demons.

Therefore, anybody who believes in demons and possession and all that must be insane. Having dealt with several crazies including my dad and uncle, I can...

There's more women than ever in vet schools and in fact they're the overwhelming majority now, right? Something like 4x or more women are on anti-depressants than men, so it seems like it would make...

Ummm ... I wasn't really reading much into this thread, but at this one ... ???

Basically these people must be insane. Say yes to the anti-psychotic drugs and no to the voices in your head (likely...
