The evangilical perspective on psychology.

This position is founded on three rather convincing arguments. (As with the Sufficiency of Scripture position, here I am seeking to present this position from the perspective of those who embrace it. I am not necessarily advocating for it.) First, the Bible does not address many psychological pathologies, for example, Tourette’s Syndrome, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and anorexia to name a few. What do counselors using only the Bible do when a schizophrenic exhibiting psychotic behavior walks through the door? Often what they do is admit the person to a psychiatric unit for psychological and psychiatric treatment.
