In My Name Shall They Dispense Antipsychotic Medications

From the time of Paul the Apostle until now, the greatest sin a Christian can commit has always been the imitation of Christ. For two millennia the churches, when not fully occupied with exterminating one another, have striven to cleanse the faithful of such unseemly inclinations as vagrancy, Jewishness and letting the dead bury the dead; to say nothing of forgiving each non-priestly sinner seventy times seven times. Now a Christian think-tank is worried that certain congregations may share the Saviour's enthusiasm for casting out demons, among whose infernal legions are some whose objective reality is apparently open to doubt. The think-tank's report expresses concern about "over-spiritualising" - a tendency to believe in spiritual causes even when the local priest can recommend a good psychiatrist, and to place absolute faith in God and the Saviour even when respectable Anglicans might find it embarrassing. Fortunately, the Church of England has issued guidelines recommending particular caution, especially when ministering to someone who is distressed or disturbed enough to believe in Jesus.
