  • Schizophrenia and Spirit Possession

    These essays call into question "the disease hypothesis of Schizophrenia," primarily because of the inadequacy of modern psychiatric treatment, but also because of the secular fiat that transformed demonic madness into mental illness, which left behind a long history of possibly beneficial diagnostic and treatment heuristics contained in conceptions of "evil spirits." The relevance of a spirit possession paradigm is demonstrated in an analysis of the life and writings of four modern prophets, Emanuel Swedenborg, Soren Kierkegaard, Franz Kafka, and Philip K. Dick. Curses, possessions, exorcisms, and religious prophecy continue as spirit theater despite the ideologically induced blindness of its secular audience.
