Will Christians be accused of being *Mentally Ill*?JESUS CHRIST 'MAY HAVE SUFFERED FROM MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS', CLAIMS CHURCH OF ENGLAND.
A SUGGESTED sermon produced by the Church of England for clerics attempting to tackle the stigma of mental health pulls no punches.
Written by the Rev Eva McIntyre on behalf of the Church’s Archbishops’ Council and the Time to Change mental health campaign, it suggests John the Baptist, St Paul, St Francis and other figures from the Bible may all have been mentally ill.

It even asks followers to consider accusations made in the New Testament that Jesus "had lost his mind".

It reads: "Many of the people we read about in Bible stories might today be considered as having mental health issues.

"For example, ‘Would Jesus’ family maybe on occasion have said, ‘Cousin John is a bit odd, bless him!’ when John the Baptist took to his eccentric style of life?

"It has long been thought that King Saul, in the books of Samuel, was displaying mood swings that suggest he had bi-polar disorder and some think that St Paul’s Damascus Road experience was the result of some sort of breakdown or psychotic episode.

Even Jesus was not immune to accusations about his mental health: there is a story in the gospel that tells of his mother and siblings attempting to take him home because they are afraid that he has lost his mind.

"Many of the stories of the Saints, too, have led people to discuss their mental health. "For example was St Francis suffering from a mental health title?"

Acknowledging how shocking these ideas might be, Ms McIntyre, a member of the General Synod, adds: "Some may find these suggestions disturbing or offensive even.

"Perhaps we need to ask why it would be so terrible to think that some of our most inspirational forebears might have experienced mental health illness.

NAZI IDEOLOGY...



AN OPEN SECRET
On July 14, 1933, the German government instituted the “Law for the Prevention of Progeny with Hereditary Diseases.” This law called for the sterilization of all persons who suffered from diseases considered hereditary, including mental illness, learning disabilities, physical deformity, epilepsy, blindness, deafness, and severe alcoholism. With the law’s passage the Third Reich also stepped up its propaganda against the disabled, regularly labeling them “life unworthy of life” or “useless eaters” and highlighting their burden upon society.

When they understand the two archetypal polearts of man and know each character for what they are then maybe they will have a better understanding of the hole rather then just trying to work out the man in a box! :)

Re: Will Christians be accused of being *Mentally Ill*?JESUS CHRIST 'MAY HAVE SUFFERED FROM MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS', CLAIMS CHURCH OF ENGLAND.
isn't it funny how those of us who think outside the square and dare to question what we see and hear are labelled "mentally ill". I myself am so sick of peoples ignorance and closed mindedness, thank God that I am able to show restraint when dealing with these people. They may not agree with my opinions beliefs or philosophy's but that does not make me mentally ill.
Someone sent me a video recently implying that I was mentally ill for believing on God and that alternative medicine is not 'proven" scientifically therefore you would have to be an idiot to think that they work. If anyone seriously believes that spiritual realm, miracles and other supernatural occurrences cannot be proven scientifically, then it is just not real, then they are the ones who have a mental problem, not me.rant
To the world I am just a number, but the Lamb of God He knows me by my name.

Christians are pretty safe for a while. It's a societal conditioning system, so no one will think much of it.

Here's a trick though, if you change the names and nothing else, would a person claiming the same things be considered sane?

Men tall health problems. Men tall = giants = men of renoun = nephilim (in David's time). Did these creatures cause health problems to those who opposed them? Do they now?

Non-English speakers often pronounce film as filim - as in nephilim.

Film = pictures = images/idols/faces in the iconic

Who were these men of renoun in NT times? Or now, in our times?

Romans 1 :18-32

18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. 21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles. 24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator--who is forever praised. Amen. 26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion. 28 Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32 Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

Consider the man responsible for starting the Church of England thought it was alright to divorce a wife for not giving him a son, killing 2 others, divorcing another wife because she was not pretty enough and on the verge of getting rid of his last wife but he died before he could, then ask yourself who had the mental problems.

Jesus did have mental health issues, he had a "messiah complex"!

The reason Jesus has a halo, in most art, is to secretly convey that he was a "me-glow-maniac"!

He did bascially tell the Pope (god's representative on Earth at the time, and supposedly beyond anything mortal) to go fuck himself, so maybe he wasn't as mad as all that.
