Re: Catholic Church teaches to ignore the psychology field

Psychotherapy ignores scientific methodologies:

Money quote:

"Although randomized controlled trials are the gold standard of scientific
research, for most of the 20th century such research was not used to test
the effectiveness of psychotherapeutic methods, in part because
psychoanalysis, at the time the most popular form of talk therapy, was
actively hostile to empirical validation."

The Catholic Church teaches to ignore the psychology field along with
its overly complicated term. It is incorrect grammar to use technical
terms to describe personal problems.

Instead of saying someone is "paranoid", simply say "overly fearful" or
"scared without good reason". Rather than calling someone an
"introvert", simply say the person is shy. Speak in plain language when
describing a personal problem.

Every person is to be held fully responsible for any crime he or she
commits. No one can blame drugs, alcohol or an illness for breaking the
law. No illness or disease can make a person break the law or commit a
crime. There can be no insanity defense admissible into any court of
law.

An illness cannot make a person break the law
