Well, at one time the sun and the moon were considered gods. It's a fact, but that doesn't mean they are. Fact is, medicine and psychology are relatively new scientific fields. It's hardly a century that germs were discovered to be the reason for many illnesses and it's not even 80 years since we can fight them effectively. Psychology is a field that was born only in the late 19th century and developed relatively slowly since then, since societies were opposed to many of it's findings. It's hardly 50 years since being gay has been decriminalized.
Sorry, but the argument of something has been considered to be a certain way, doesn't hold water.
