I didn't say that you did. Do you need a psychologist or religion? Have you read any Freud?

I know Freud is sexually preoccupied. I don't need either religion or psychology. I am a lawyer. I am no less experienced in life than psychologists

You don't have to ask the priests. Better with a psychologist. Europeans don't need a church. Churches are closing. Right?

Is it possible that, for some people, religion gives something that psychology doesn't?

What is it about being a lawyer that means you don't need psychology? Are all lawyers completely mentally healthy, not neurotic or depressed?

That does this mean? How how does that connect (or disconnect) from your profession or theirs?

What did you mean to ask, if you would try to better rephrase the question?
