The only therapy out there worth its salt cognitive therapy, but the individual needs to be highly motivated. And the studies on prayer are not about community but about the person's view of God. Psychology as a profession offers no hope, not in the sense that religion can.
    I know from experience that psychology, as a profession, can be extremely effective despite your trivializing of it as just handing out pills. This as opposed to the confirmation bias of religious solutions, which basically just promote the power of positive thinking among believers.

      In the case of the disproportionately high number of Evangelicals who indulge in online porn, they're hypocritical creeps.

      So you are equating porn with CHILD PORN? Really? You think they are the same thing?

      And by "creeps" are you saying they are mentally abnormal? or just evil?

      Defending pedophilia as normal is a new low. Just keep digging your hole deeper Tassman.

      • I assigned no negative connotations to the term aberration. If you do, that says more about you than it does me.

        Human culture nevertheless must take the natural human variations into account when formulating the rules of society, or do you think red-haired people should be stoned to death?
        Of course not. But there are those on the left that seem to think it is ok to abort humans with a natural human variant like Down's Syndrome...

          "Toxic Masculinity"
          Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
          But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
          Than a fool in the eyes of God

            If it is toxic, it is toxic. The only thing that allows for the description of that behaviour to include "masculinity" is the fact that the person doing it is male. But it is a much more a common behaviour from women. Perhaps he should be accused of appropriation?

              No. I was equating porn about raping women (as per my#979), in response to your #974 post about raping children. My point: ALL rape is bad.

              And by "creeps" are you saying they are mentally abnormal? or just evil?

                  • Because without that distinction being agreed upon, there can be no real dialogue about what is next, whatever that may be.


                    OK, as in I don't think either abnormality deserves a death penalty.

                    • Then why are you defending it as normal?

                      It is either a mental illness or just pure evil. Which do you think it is?

                          • For the purposes of assembling a montage of images, yes, Photoshop works quite well, although I much prefer the free and cross platform GIMP myself.

                            Oh, wait, are you suggesting that the many photos of Gropin' Joe inappropriately touching women and children are fakes? Sorry to tell you, but they're genuine.

                            Unless you think this is "shopped" too.



                            The guy is everything that liberals claim to hate in "toxic" males.

                              He was probably asking him for a donation to his campaign.

                                Trump supporters are in no position to take the moral high ground regarding Biden. Biden has been accused of making some women uncomfortable, nothing more. This as opposed to numerous sexual accusations against Trump, plus paying off Playboy bunnies and big-breasted women and gratuitous boasting about what he can get away with sexually against women because he's "a star". There's no comparison and it is is pathetic that you are attempting to compare the two.
