Psychology is Dead, or is that God?

Psychology is clearly the substitute for both faith and reason. If you have no ability in hard science and no love of actual wisdom yet want to impress yourself with a pseudo-doctorate, say a Psy. D. Be a shrink. Profit off the helpless, the sad, the superstitious. Use the DSM and become a sudden sage. ADHD yet again! My word it seems to be a regular plague. Why do we believe in such scurrilous nonsense? Why do we refuse individual moral agency in exchange for sighing victimhood? Does some neo-profession profit off this? Well of course they do. The APA is fraudulent and all real scientists, those who engage in say, falsifiable empirical evidence, know this. So, yes help the world. Fire your therapist. Help yourself. Learn a material skill. Psychology is a growth industry built on our superstitious acceptance of an infantile notion of a new god. But this one is dead too.

Hi,
Check out www.boomerdeathclock.com. It says a lot in dark humourous way.

Thanks,

We know that some personality disorders, like psychopathy, exist, but as a whole, yes, psychology is just a collection of theories and very much a pseudoscience. I have a degree in psychology and know this as a fact that I can't really prove, especially to other people in the field of psychology.
