II am a trained scientist, one who always referred to psychology as "science fiction" until I married a bi-polar woman.
She had been on thorizine starting at age 12, her parents were alcoholics, her older sister and her were sexually abused by their father then moved out of the house, she to Majorca Spain. There she had over 300 sexual encounters before the age of 14, mainly with american sailors trading alcohol for sex. I met her and it was only after marriage that I started tracking her mood swings and cycles. I diagnosed her illness after cataloging all her symptoms. She was a poster girl for a rapid cycler. I took her to a shrink. He prescribed Depicote. She prefered alcohol. It was a loosing battle. What baffled me was how a supposed MD could prescribe brain chemistry altering drugs without doing any kind of a baseline for comparison. His "how are you feeling today" questions were ludicrous, since she never stopped drinking and lied ever time he saw her. I know I was there. Her response was "I didn't want to disappoint him." Yeah, she had father issues, she was into BDSM and loved Bestiality.
My point is I started to believe in the science of it all, but then I stumbled onto this site. You CENSOR people?
People taut religion on a supposedly scientific forum? What total crap!
Talk about undermining you own cause! Invoking god is about the lamest thing in this day and age I can think of. Why not have the poor people on looking for help pray to a tree? It will do them about as much good. Filling their heads with superstiious nonsense is the ultimate in futile stupidity and you call think you practice science?
