Jesus did have righteous anger, Sean, but He never talked vulgarly or cruelly. Do you claim the same right to be angry about sin as Jesus Christ? Do either of your posts sound like anything Jesus would have said? You can be emphatic without swearing and vulgarity and cruelty and sarcasm.
"But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, "full of deadly poison. With it we bless our God and Father and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of God. Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so"--James Ch. 3 Vs. 8-10
Mental illness is a physiological disorder. Something physically wrong in the brain that can be helped with medication. Would you ask someone with a physical illness BELOW THE BRAIN, to go without medicine? Say if they had a heart problem, or diabetes? There is nothing wrong with medicine. All that is asked in the scriptures is that we do not rely on doctors and medicine ALONE but realize that God is in control and pray that He guide the doctors and ask for His healing. I didn't think we were talking about recreational drugs on this messageboard. You are haranguing the wrong people. Perhaps, though, you are only a flamer who likes to keep messageboards riled up just for the fun of it.
