I am definitely Christian but not an institutional church-goer. I've always been rather empathetic but have not actually trained as a psycyhologist. I guess you could say I'm sort of a natural-born psychologist, although I have read in the field and worked for nearly 29 years in Southern California as a probation officer. Hence I hobnobbed with a lot of professional psychologists and have learned from them. I'm a fan of cognitive therapy and think that it is, among those available, solidly biblical, so I like to recommend it. My favorite book that I suggest a lot in my answers is "Ten Days to Self Esteem" by the best-selling psychiatrist David D. Burns. Years ago, I learned that I am bi-polar and was on Lithium for 23 years. So I have lots of experience as such and like to answer questions in that arena. I've obtained real help from the www.truehope.com program and often recommend the free downloadable book: http://www.thewayup.com/

2 AnswersGoogle10 years agoWhy do I get "YA! Ans not available" or "This question has been deleted" after trying to submit my answer?
This has happened a least 3 days in a row, usually when I start in the AM to answer some questions. Often more than once at day.
It's quite frustrating because I usually write somewhat lengthy answers and take care to write them well, only to find out my time was wasted!

4 AnswersYahoo Answers10 years agoHow can evolution be science, when true science is based upon obsevation?
The scientific method requires that the knowledge gained by scientific inquiry be based upon "gathering observable, empirical, measurable evidence." And no one, in spite of exaggerated claims, has come up with any.
Science is not fabricating a theory and then going in search of evidence to support and prove it.
Evolution is not science, it is theory, or better: fantasy, and a rather silly one.
Ever heard the saying, "Don't let evolution make a monkey out of you?"
13 AnswersPhilosophy1 decade agoDoes art benefit humanity? If so, exactly how?
In addition, for Christians specifically, do you feel a career in art can be blessed by God, that is something God wants you to do (or if not a career, as such, then a life-long preoccupation) or is a waste of time?
