3: Sin can trigger schizophrenia. Psychiatry: Mental Illness in ...
Sin can make you physically sick and lead to insanity! Heart attack, depression, anxiety, delusion. Introduction: All mental illness is a behaviour choice not a bodily disease. All the behaviours associated with mental illness are without exception, sins listed in the Bible. Sinful living choices can lead to further sinful emotional choices like depression and anxiety, which then become the basis of a mental illness label (diagnosis) by atheistic chemical psychiatrists. Jesus commanded us not to be anxious and a "depressed Christian" is an oxymoron, considering the great joy of possessing the reward and blessing of eternal life in heaven. The behaviours associated with mental illness are solutions to personal problems. Once you have check-listed the behaviours, simply ask, "What personal benefit does the person derive from these behaviours". The label of schizophrenia is applied to those who choose to become delusional and paranoid. Delusion is the sin of deception or lying and ... ...

5: Psychiatry: Chemical imbalances are mythical. Anti-psychotic ...
...Lean has distinguished three sorts of drivers of the neural chassis. The most ancient of them surrounds the midbrain (and is made up mostly of what ncuroanatomists call the olfactostriatum, the corpus striatum, and the globus pallidus). We share it with the other mammals and the reptiles. It probably evolved several hundred million years ago. MacLean calls it the reptilian or R-complex. Surrounding the R-complex is the limbic system, so called because it borders on the underlying brain. (Our arms and legs are called limbs because they are peripheral to the rest of the body.) We share the limbic system with the other mammals but not, in its full elaboration, with the reptiles. It probably evolved more than one hun-dred and fifty million years ago. Finally, surmounting the rest of the brain, and clearly the most recent evo-lutionary accretion, is the neocortex.

7: A Treatise on Madness, William Battie, 1758 AD
...William Battie (1703-76) A Treatise on Madness (1758), A: pp. 41-44, B: pp. 68-77, C: pp. 93-99. Battie's work was the most important influence on the treatment of madness in the eighteenth century before the founding of the York Retreat in 1792. He trained at Cambridge, became a governor of Bethlem Hospital in 1742, and in 1750-51 was a leading figure in the founding of St Luke's Hospital for Lunaticks, serving as its first physician until his retirement in 1764. Battie's achievement stands out clearly in his short, pointed, and controversial Treatise on Madness. He was among the first to try to dispense with the multiplication of labels for madness- melancholy, spleen, vapours, and so on-and preferred two simple categories: 'Original Madness', where there was some physical defect from birth, and which was generally incurable, and 'Consequential Madness', which followed upon some injury or external cause, and which would usually respond to treatment. This distinction, together with ... ...

Whereas Helmont lowered a bound mad man, head first into a large tank of water, Blair dropping large volumes of water on the head of a mad man seated and bound in a chair. Most important is that both Helmont and Blair viewed the cause of insanity to be spiritual choices of men rather than bodily diseases. For this reason, water torture was an effective way of convincing the mad man to stop his insane behaviour. Blair and Helmont boast that this method indeed cured the insane!

10: The myth that Mental illness is caused by Genetics and bad DNA
There is no scientific proof that Mental illness is caused by genetic deficiencies in DNA. Introduction: Chemical psychiatry has only two causes (etiologies) of mental illness: chemical imbalances and bad DNA. Their cure is always drugs. The chemical psychiatry industry and all mental health officials will tell you that mental illnesses can be traced down to the DNA level. They make it sound like they have seen the mental illness gene under a microscope! What they don't tell you, is that this is a theory and a guess! The reason they believe mental illness is caused by genetics is because they reject the spiritual side of man. They view man as a pile of chemicals and nothing more. This is called chemical psychiatry and it represents the 99.9% of all mental health theory. They theorize mental illness is caused by bad DNA because they have done social studies and noticed that mental illness runs in families. The problem with this is that many things unrelated to DNA run in families, like ... ...

How does Torture and Coercion cure inanity? Click to View Insanity is a behaviour choice. Torture changes the will. Click to View Click to View See also: History of Psychiatry homepage Introduction: Psychiatrists have always used coercion or torture to cure insanity. Coercion is still widely used in both Canada and the USA. The use of torture came to an end about 1940. We are totally opposed to using any coercion or torture in the "treatment" of insanity. However, it is clear from the record of history, that torture did cure mental illness. The question is: "How does torture cure insanity?" The answer is simple: Insanity is a behaviour choice not a disease. The whole idea of "curing" insanity is ridiculous at its core. It is like saying that you are going to "cure" someone of chronic lying or adultery. Insanity is a behaviour just like lying and adultery. You don't cure people of behaviours with drugs, you persuade them by appealing to their conscience. For a chemical psychiatrist, ... ...

Contentment is a cardinal and central teaching of Christ. 2. We are commanded to be content, regardless of the life situation we find ourselves in. 3. When we lack contentment, we become anxious and depressed. 4. "Without trying to answer this question here, let me emphasize only that investing hope in religious faith is perhaps one of the best psychological investments a person can make. This is because by investing a small amount of hope in religion-especially in the Christian religions, which promise lavish gratifications and rewards of all sorts-one gets back a great deal. Few other enterprises, other than fanatical nationalisms, promise as much. The rate of return on hope invested in religion is thus much higher than on hope invested in, say, rational work-a-day pursuits. Hence, those with small capitals of hope may do best by investing their "savings" in religion. And this indeed is what they often do."

This is exactly how the conscience works. It is only as reliable as the information you have taught it. "For our proud confidence is this: the testimony of our conscience, that in holiness and godly sincerity, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially toward you." 2 Corinthians 1:12 Introduction: The conscience must be taught right from wrong. A good conscience is a good feeling you get when you do that which you have been taught is right. A bad conscience is the guilt you feel when you do that which you have been taught is wrong. If a person does what is wrong and feels no guilt it is because they do not think it is wrong or they have a seared conscience.

Mental illness is a behaviour, not a disease. The etiology of habitually running red lights, lying, shoplifting, mental illness and insanity are identical. Moral conscious choices have their origin in the human spirit not body chemicals or hormones. The etiology of joy and depression is the human spirit not the body. Body chemicals and drugs do not cause choice. What causes mental illness? The same choice that causes any human behaviour, both good and bad. Introduction: Contrary to the almost universally believed myth, there is absolutely no scientific evidence that the behaviours of mental illness are caused by chemical imbalances in the brain or bad DNA. In fact this myth is the result of one of the most successful advertising conns at the hands of drug companies and their paid spokeman: biopsychiatrists. Even the post graduate textbooks that train psychiatrists admit they have no idea what really causes insanity or any mental illness. Having rejected the dichotomous nature of man ... ...

29: A treatise of Anger, John Downame, 1609 AD
But a harsh word stirs up anger." Proverbs 15:1 "Like charcoal to hot embers and wood to fire, So is a contentious man to kindle strife." Proverbs 26:21. The final solution is to gently warn and rebuke the person about the dangers anger will bring on his soul. Downame clearly understood that anger had its origin in the mind, but that it affected both mind and body. This was true. The Bible says that sin will make you sick. (A treatise of Anger, John Downame, 1609 AD) In Downame's time medical practice was almost confined to physical disease or to physical treatment of mental disease, while 'spiritual physicke' or psychotherapy was the province of the clergy. Taking as his example anger, 'a short madnesse', Downame described how he dealt with patients. 'The first means... is to use silence' has a very modern - Freudian- ring; and not to meet anger with anger because `crosse speeches and perverse replies, make the chollericke man proceede from anger to rage . . . and madnesse' became the ... ...

His A Treatise on Madness, never mentions the words: soul, spirit, God, Jesus. The only time Christianity is brought into the subject is his rather stupid suggestion that the laziness religious leaders causes madness because their "nerves" were out of shape due to lack of use the same way the lazy man has weak heart. It was a clear slap against religion. He was one who actually believed that Christians were generally mentally ill. This attitude prevails today in modern psychiatry.

She said, "the man is not Lunatick, but rather under strong convictions of sin; and hath much more need of a spiritual, than bodily physician". Most interesting, is her comment that Monro (like most of the largest mad house keepers) believed that religious devotion was actually a sign of mental illness: "he presently condemned himself and said, Lord what sin have I been guilty of, and cry'd to God for mercy, and pardon. This probably may confirm the Dr. in the opinion of his madness but to me tis a proof of his being in a right mind".

40: Historical overview of Psychiatry: 1550 BC - 2010 AD
Egyptians wrote a book of medicine. It is likely a copy of a much older book, but it is quite fascinating to realize just how much the ancients knew about the human body and various diseases. While the cures were no better than a witches brew with "eye of newt", they did understand the various diseases. The only reference to anything coming close to psychiatry is in the section on the heart where anger and sadness are discussed. Biopsychiatrists love to quote the papyrus as proof that the Egyptians believed depression was caused by bodily diseases. But this is simply untrue. In fact the opposite is true. The Egyptians understood that anger and sadness caused body diseases in the heart. The papyrus reads: "When his Heart is afflicted and has tasted sadness, behold his Heart is closed in and darkness is in his body because of anger which is eating up his Heart."

Bible preaching as actually driving people insane. Under John Monro preachers were forbidden to even enter Bedlam, since he believed ministers of churches drove the patients to further madness. In 1772, under the indirect advice of John Monro, the British Government passed a law that allowed a person to be committed to Bedlam with a single doctor's medical certificate, and suddenly for the first time, church preachers were stripped of any official role in the process. Today, this has gone so far that insurance companies forbid church preachers from even engaging in "counseling their flock", unless they get a certificate from a secular, atheistic institution.
