Why do psychologists need religion?

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

I wasn't aware that psychologists need religion. Can you expand on what you mean?

Boru

Judging by what you wrote, psychologists do not need religion

Every psychologist should worship Sigmund Freud with their genitals in their hands.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Yes, on the issue of atheism. But you don't have to develop the topic of sex.
I think judges and lawyers know about life no less than any psychologist

Psychology seems to be a taboo in religion: if you are depressed that just means you need more Jesus. Or take Scientology who is completely against psychology and pushing its dianetics instead.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

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