Welcome to Episode 123 of the Being Human Podcast:  Fake Science and Real Compassion In this week’s episode, Dr. Greg is launching grenades at organizational evils in the field of secular psychology! In it, he outlines the need for both philosophy and science in discovering objective truth while also reminding us all about the importance of compassion and mercy towards individual persons.    Discussed in this episode: Who gets to decide what is defined as ordered for the human person?  The error of secular culture’s ascribing the fullness of truth as that which comes through science; The role of philosophy in arriving at objective truth; Why we need both reason and faith to arrive at eternal, immaterial and invisible truths;  The APA as a political, pseudo-scientific organization fueled by cultural sentiment; The lack of objectivity in the social sciences; Rejecting state-defined paths and modalities as the only way to help those who are suffering from mental health burdens; The core distinction between a Catholic worldview vs. a secular worldview; How the courage to decry organizational evils needs to be balanced with a  recognition and reverence for the dignity and goodness of the individual person; The call of Christians to stand up for truth, even to the point of death, while remaining loving until the end.   Resources mentioned or relevant: Past Being Human Podcast Episodes: Episode 121: How the APA is Schizophrenic; Episode 81: The Lies of the American Psychological Association;  Episode 72: The DSM Disease (Part One);  What Is A Woman? documentary by Matt Walsh;  Join the waitlist to be notified about our next Open House to learn more about the new CPMAP certification!
