>nothing to do with right or wrong, which is written in our heart

It's just quite unfortunate we're all reading from different heart books.

I don't think we are reading different heart books at all - we are taught that we are but we are pretty much exactly the same when it comes to matters of the heart

The dsm is hardly the authority of the heart.

It might be the authority of the pharmaceutical industry with regards to what treatments can be provided more psychiatric conditions.

And even then you have to wonder about their criteria - a doubling of diseases with every edition, all those 'chemical imbalances' and not one physical test!

Really? Or is it that you've never looked, and take the poor imitation instead?

Funny, btw. But, not all truth has to be found in a book.. Arguably, no truth is.
