I really don't have time to be blogging right now because I am swamped with homework today but I just need to get this off of my chest and out here for the world to see. :)
I do not like to put controversial things on Facebook because people like to argue and honestly, I really don't care about anybody else's opinion on this matter. I am 110% sure mine is right and I will leave it at that.
So, about an hour ago I was sitting in my Social Problems class discussing a specific topic from the text book, Mental Illnesses. After a while of discussion, he pulled out the DSM four and told us that this specific book was pretty much the "Holy Bible" for psychiatrist. I didn't really like that comment but I continued to listen to what he had to say (obviously because it is going to be on my test). Anyway, he goes on to say that mental illnesses are nothing but labels and based on the values of the society.
He continued on by saying that in 1950 homosexuality was listed as a mental illness in the DSM four and it was because of our values as a society. Now, it has been taken out and renamed to something else. This is very, very sad to me and makes me very frustrated. Where are all the believers at and why are we not standing up for what we know to be right, the TRUTH.
If you are not sure what I am talking about when I say the Truth, I will explain. It is THE Holy Bible. It is the book that NEVER changes. It is the same yesterday, today, and forever. It is very straight forward and there should be no other question about it. Mark 10:6-9 says “But at the beginning of creation God ‘made them male and female. ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
I am so thankful for His Word and although I am not perfect, I will strive to do what I know is right and to live according to His Word.
