We're not going anywhere. I put forth the request that someone prove me wrong. He hasn't. He's given me the usual response I would expect; empty, devoid of content, meaningless, just like the "man" who wrote it.

Bolding is mine.

Speaking of logic...

You're rationality differs from mine, I never said it was "correct". As you said before, mentally ill people are incapable of rational thought.
What sort of "rational" challenge was this? (bolding mine)
Quote:Or perhaps any stories about people who thought their way out of having a manic episode. Or an episode of clinical depression. Or ANY of the mental disorders that affect people to the point of requiring constant medical treatment. Give me ONE FUCKING EXAMPLE where talk-therapy and/or self-rationalization led out of it and kept it from ever recurring.
