Lol Mrs Amy. Most so-called "mental illness" is really just a medical excuse and label for sin. I realize there are things such as depression, but for the most part it is just a label to try to excuse SIN. God doesn't by the excuse however and neither do some people.

What is it with you people and sin? Everything is caused by sin to you. OCD? Sin caused it! ADD? That's from sin right there! Schizophrenia? A whole truckload of sin! Born with Downs Syndrome? Oh that was from sins you made in the womb!
WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE?
I think Mrs. Amy (assie mamma) said it already:
"I can only imagine the bigoted way of thinking you would have toward the millions of people around the world who daily suffer from mental illness, what cure do you have for them in you medicine box? An exorcism? Or maybe just lock them away like society did just 40 years ago."
So if your psychopathic, jealous, zealous, wrathful, petty, non-sensical, racist, homophobic, pig-ignorant God isn't mentally ill, then he's a callous sinner.
Thanks for clearing that up!
What a cunt!
Lol Mrs Amy.
'lol' is such an idiotic and mindless thing to type it's not even funny aynmore.
Most so-called "mental illness" is really just a medical excuse and label for sin.
I'm sorry to break this to you, Kate, but the chemical imbalances and such responsible for mental disorders have been proven, as have numerous actual reasons for these imbalances occurring.
I realize there are things such as depression, but for the most part it is just a label to try to excuse SIN.
May I ask you something? Does Sin also cause 'regular' illnesses? No? OK, then what's so special about mental disorders?
It's funny, you know. Regular illnesses (with the exception of AIDS, God's favorite terror weapon, of course) haven't been singled out for years. No one says influenza is caused by spirits today. But when we get to mental disorders, suddenly they're this big, scary, alien thing that has to be explained away as demon infection or punishment for sin or whatever.
God doesn't by the excuse however and neither do some people.
Fortunately for us, most people have moved on from the dark-age woo explanations for mental disorders. Except fundies in the States and possibly certain New Age groups.
How the fuck is depression considered a sin?
Yet she feels that her allergies and migraine headaches are just ways of proving Gods love.
Crap I just wrote a completely nonsensical rant, that can be summed up in two words.
Hypocritical Bitch.
May you suffer severe postpartum depression.
Being 100% disabled with Bipolar Disorder I have to hear this bull all the time and each time I ask the ignorant slouch:
Is your kidney an organ? "Yes"
Is your liver and organ? "Yes"
Can those fail and require medical assistance? "Yes"
Your brain is an organ and it can fail as well. (they shut the hell up at this point)
Osiris: Being sad is a sin?
Historically, it used to be.
http://www.deadlysins.com/sins/history.html
When the sins were originally constructed by the Greek theologian Evagrius of Pontus, sadness was a sin. They were, in order of increasing seriousness: gluttony, lust, avarice, sadness, anger, acedia, vainglory, and pride.
In the 6th century Pope Gregory reduced the list to seven items. In the 17th century the Church removed sadness from the list and added sloth. So Christianity recategorizes sins to suit itself, and it has done it again recently. Not to mention fundies recategorize sin to suit their beliefs, and the deadly sins were invented by man, not god, so the whole notion of sin is screwed up anyway, and is best ignored.
So in other words, Mrs Katy-Ann, STFU! You are guilty of vainglory in the eyes of the Holy Church of Rot.
This chick defies the imagination. I've been reading this since someone linked to it months ago. She is a young girl who knows nothing. She is arrogant, listens to no one, judges without thinking, and is pretty convinced she's the greatest thing since sliced bread. Her rudeness is astounding, as well as her lack of any real knowledge, about anything. She doesn't care to learn about anything, listen to anyone about anything, or use her brain. I think that there are some mental health issues at play in her life; before she came to the states and married her American husband she was on the teen boards ranting about all her troubles. She is most definitely in denial.
What's worse is that she is breeding. One already and within a couple months of that one being born she was pregnant again.
"God doesn't by the excuse however and neither do some people."
Unfortunately, the opinion of your cell mate who shares your padded room doesn't count.
My mother was diagnosed with schizophrenia any fundy retard stupid enough to say that her illness was do to sin or demons is going to get a bloody nose. I've heard fundtards say that about her again and again before and I'm getting tired of it. Or they say retarded things like she is not right with God, or that he's testing her and so forth.
So STFU!
So my brother's schizophrenia, his anxiety, his paranoia, the voices he hears and the frightening thoughts that scare the crap out of him are all just an excuse for him to sin? I'll be sure to let him know that all the medication he has to take is for nothing.
MrsW: "I do dismiss medications."
Do you? Well, then I hope the doctors take you by your word when you're in labour. After all giving birth is a natural process. image
Here's another howler from her blog. It's in a post about people removing her blog from their favourites list because she is isn't ok - surprisingly enough - with the pants on women=sin rule. Edited for clarity.
What is funny is that they [the person who removed her] have someone on their blog list who isn't even a Christian and she says she isn't. I am not upset about it, I think it's funny [that a Xian who doesn't believe in trousers on women can be friends with an atheist]. These are the super judgmental fundamentalists I mentioned above.
Mirror, mirror, on the wall... tmr, you are right. She knows the square root of fuck all.
*after reading a bit of the blog*
I'm always fascinated when a bible thumper advocates "new age medicine", which is just the same old snake oil that used to be prepared by pagan priests, alchemists, and other such ocultists that fundies scream "devil worship" about.
She's proudly marching into the iron age though.
You're too ignorant to understand. Depression and other things are caused by imbalences in the brain. Not "sin".
Most people have moved on from the dark age explanation of mental disorders.
I am afraid for your children
God doesn't by (sic) the excuse ...
Yeah, but Katy-Anne, surely you realize that God just isn't the brightest thing that ever sashayed down the turnpike.
As a person who suffers from severe anxiety, and has several family members that suffer from depression, I would like to say to Katy-Anne, fuck you, you fucking bitch.
Since I don't believe in the ridiculous idea of SIN, I don't worry about trying to excuse my depression and mild ADD to a mythical deity or ignorant, superstitious fundies. I just follow my doctor's advice and get on with my life. What a crazy idea, huh?
Ha! Apparently our fundie friend has had enough criticism because now her blog is inaccessible. Either she pulled it down or has gone into hiding.
Fundie running and hiding. I love it.
Katy-Anne, what are you afraid of?
Hiding for Jesus. Classic.
Katy-Anne, if you pass by here and read this, here's an example of the consequences of your Dark Age mentality ...
8 year old autistic boy dies during "exorcism"
I suppose you think this is legitimate , do you?
Taking an 8 year old boy to a Dark Age ceremony and snuffing his life out because those around him shared stupid, mediaeval delusions about "demons" instead of accepting what we know as FACT about such conditions as determined by YEARS OF MEDICAL RESEARCH BY THE PEOPLE WHO SPENT DECADES TRYING TO MAKE THIS WORLD A BETTER PLACE.
If you think this is somehow "preferable" to valid medical care because of your Dark Age masturbation fantasies, then please, do humanity a favour and walk under a truck. Because your sick notions are pure poison.
True story, I once had a friend who was epileptic. We were out one day when he had a fit. I was taking care of it, when one fundie told me that my friend was being possessed by a demon and that I should stand clear so that it didn't get me too.
Remind me why we even let these guys into hospitals in the first place?
As somebody who suffers from a couple of mental illnesses, let me just say
FUCK YOU!
Osiris: Being sad is a sin?
Depression is a bit more than "being sad". It's the inability to feel anything else .
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
