....was it something I said ???? My last question was to be followed up with another question ... If "Glossolalia" is considered by adherents to be a form of prayer ... it could be argued to be delusional ...shouldn't it be listed in the DSM IV ? Since 90 % of the worlds population prays ...think of the profit that could be generated by labeling praying people !
Re: ....was it something I said ???? This is a joke? I refer you to Spinoza and 100 + years of sociology, anthropology, and social psychology for a set of warnings and sanctions against this sort of thought. But, yeah, it would generate revenue, sort of like made-up satanic abuse.
Olaus , I wasn't serious Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! The question was to illustrate the hypocrisy present when "experts" concoct the DSM . Establishing what constitutes unexceptable behavior , stamping a medical name on it , and catagorizing people who engage in this behavior as suffering from a mental disorder ....seems to be more political than scientific .
