Quote:The manual identifies a new mental illness called “oppositional defiant disorder” or ODD. Defined as an “ongoing pattern of disobedient, hostile and defiant behavior,” symptoms include questioning authority, negativity, defiance, argumentativeness, and being easily annoyed.

Anyone who thinks these symptoms are the basis of free thought is an idiot. Free thinkers only get this way when they're confronted by idiots with dogmatic beliefs who insist that others also share those beliefs.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
