Personal relationships with deities

[jenny1972]

the mind cannot be put into a petri dish and studied like doctors can study a virus , diagnosis is based not on science but on interpretation of symptoms and what the psych thinks the problem is just as many will disagree with him as those who agree .

---

but unlike medicine or science , theories involving the mind will continue to be debated - agreed by some and disagreed by just as many each and every new theory that someone invents , its no more scientific than religion is .

You act like no doctor has ever misdiagnosed cancer, heart disease, etc...

That's what second opinions are for.

Or, you can just go ahead with your theory bullshit idea that a doctor who is predisposed to a particular idea (religious psychiatrist) is better able to provide an unbiased diagnosis.

isnt atheism being predisposed to a particular idea also they exclude any possibility of God ... the only unbiased view is someone who is open to all possibilities but not particularily for or against . which wouldnt be an atheist or theist  . if a psych cant be unbiased i would rather them knowledgeable to the fact that God exists.

yes a doctor without full knowledge of a disease might misdiagnose something thats why people should seek out knowledgeable doctors and psychiatrists so that they wont be misdiagnosed thank you for further clarifying the point i was trying to make and yes getting a second opinion from a more educated doctor is a great idea .
