"Professor Michael King, from University College London, and his fellow researchers wrote in the British Journal of Psychiatry"

The amazing thing I always find about these shrinks and their convictions is that they wouldn't know a real Christian from a banana.

Some of the people we find today who would describe themselves as quote "spiritual" - Don't need a shrink to diagnose them as having a mental problem.

I wonder how the shrinks "diagnose" the man of Gadarenes from which Christ removed the legion of unclean spirits from? Christ completely cured him, the shrinks would probably feed him powerful drugs to dull his senses and keep him in a permanent soporific state.
