Prozac Pilgrim!
"He finally revealed to his wife and children what was going on his mind, saying, 'Oh, my dear Wife and Children, I'm suffering from inner turmoil because of a burden that lays heavily upon me. And, what's worse, I've been reliably informed that our city will be burned with fire from Heaven. in that fearful disaster, I with you my Wife and you my sweet Children will come a miserable ruin unless some way of escape---which as yet I do not see--maybe found by which we may be delivered.'
His family members were deeply troubled at this declaration, not because they believed what he told them but because they thought some form of insanity had gotten into his head. Therefore, since it was nearing nightfall, and hoping that sleep would settle his brain, they quickly got him to bed. But the night was as troublesome to him as the day; and, for that reason, instead of sleeping he spent it sighing and weeping. " [end quote] A sure, sure sign, that Pilgrim is deranged huh? A sure, sure sign he needs some chemical kosh so he can no longer think, no longer feel, and will be too zombified and none functional in brain power to make any good judgements or choices, and will most likely just ride along on a wave from day to day, maybe from year to year, depending on how long the chemical kosh gets delivered! What should we suggest? Prozac? Maybe Haldol? Maybe sleeping pills too, so that he can't search his heart and soul to find the root of his despair, but is incoherently snoozing the night away, under the influence of brain damaging drugs!
[restart quote] "When morning came, they wanted to k now how he was; and he told them, "worse and worse." [end quote] time to call the psyche team in, before he has time to take desperate measures and fix his problem on his own. The nanny state we live in now, has taught us all that someone else can fix the problem we created, right? It is not our fault and WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE!! IT IS A MYTH THAT MANKIND IS HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND WILL REAP WHAT HE SOWS! Right? [restart quote] "He started talking to them again, but they began to be hardened to his words. They thought they might be able to drive away his insanity by harsh and bad tempered behaviour towards him." [end quote] Now ain't that reality? Someone is hurting and in pain, and in the cruel world we live in, those they love kicks them while they're down, all in the name of love. Is it any wonder there are so many emotionally hurting people out there? But the answer isn't to have a caring society, one founded on the Word of God, its to zap 'em with pills and dope 'em up. that way you can forget about the real person. And only have to connect with the person the pills make. A half asleep, still hurting but has not enough level of consciousness or cognitive ability to find a way out. Oh yeah, good answer! [restart quote] "Sometimes they would make fun of him, at other times they would criticize him, and sometimes they would simply ignore him." [End quote] Ignore the problem it will go away, right? Bury your head in the sand and get OSTRICH DISEASE! As well as the sickness all our societies are run through and through with. [restart Quote] Because of this, he began to withdraw from them to his bedroom to pray for them, pity and comfort his own misery. He would also walk by himself in the fields, sometimes reading and sometimes praying. He spent his time doing these things for several days. [end quote] Oh all this time on his own, using his brain and trying to find comfort without the use of psychotropic drugs, is really, really a sign of ole pilgrim needing prozac, or haldol, or maybe if he gets worse, they should just shoot electric volts through his brain in the name of treatment, that will be sure to cure him, right?
Yeah, right! All Pilgrim needed was a happy pill and a psyche to call his own, and he'd have been okay wouldn't he? No! Pilgrim knew exactly what he needed. He needed the way to Heaven, found only in our Lord, and the truth as founded on the whole word of God. And all he needed was a psyche to show him the way, huh? And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch. -- Jesus Christ (Matthew 15:14) Wrong, a psyche would have led him to the pit, as psychology is absolutely categorically, against the Word of God. And founded in atheism. Freedom from all kinds of things can be found in the Lord. But only based on and as revealed in the Word of God.
