Based upon your extremely limited understanding of said spiritual reality, I'd say that's a compliment.

But.......just someone believing in God can become possessed as easily as someone who does not.
Go back to your room, the adults are talking now. 😛

All I want to know is how is morality involved in schizophrenia? I wasn't aware that medical issues made anyone more or less moral.

If you don't know what the phrase "The medicalization of the moral life" is referring to, perhaps you need to go and take a look rather than trying to make 'what whodey doesn't know' into the topic of debate.

What? Masturbation is a sin? But it was invented by the monks and nuns, wasn't it?

The 'spiritual', what exactly is that?

our consciousness and how it relates to our understanding of ourselves in relation to
the world around us.

I see, i reckon other people have different definitions. Your one sounds like the application science.

Are 'demons' part of the 'spiritual reality' Rob?
