I promise that I will pray for you. I have witnessed God's hand in the healing of family members suffering from mental illness.

Mental illness' are a GIFT from GOD???? and Im not much of a " SINNER " I guess. Honestly im not sure if i believe in SIN. We make mistakes so that we can LEARN from them. Life is a learning experience.

Unfortunatly God has 3 answers available to prayer. Yes, No, Maybe.
He also has some pretty sweet outs for not responding..
1. You don't have enough faith
2. He works in mysterious ways
I have to give him credit, he set up a pretty cool system. He gets all the credit for anything good that happens, and none of the responsibility for any of the bad...
Sorry you are dealing with those things...

How come you're an agnostic and not an atheist?

Don't feel like ruling out the possibility of some supreme creator being thingy. I'm atheist when it comes to any god or gods we have names for like Baal, Leviathon, Mithras, Osiris, Jehovah, etc etc.

Thanks. Im not trying to sit here and tell my sad life story NOR am i sitting here saying " oh woe is me/feel sorry for me". Nope. Like i said, Life aint Fair nor is life easy...........but neither is living with mental illness'. We all face ISSUES in our life, but again......mental illness' are no walk in the park.

Yea. OCD is a terrible mental disorder too, Theres alot more too OCD then being a clean/neat freak and washing your hands. Ocd is what put me in a crisis center 6 years ago.Woke up having a " morbid vision", is part of having UNCONTROLLABLE NIGHTMARES, which is a symptom of OCD. Woke up and felt like i was burning in hell and had a real bad panic attack, but in a nutshell Ive been on medications for 6 years and ive gotten so so so much better. If you met me in person, especialy on one of my real good days, basically where none of my symptoms were acting up, you would probably think there was nothing mentally wrong with me.

There is no god, so don't worry about it.

There is a God, and for some reason atheists worry about it. ;D

Some do, I never do unless posting here.
The OP is complaining about something that is better explained without a god than with one. Occam's Razor.

William of Ockham himself was a theist. He believed in God, and thus in some validity of scripture; he writes that
"nothing ought to be posited without a reason given, unless it is self-evident (literally, known through itself) or known by experience or proved by the authority of Sacred Scripture."

Religion causes mental illness'. Ive been trying to unbrainwash/unpoision my mind from being on medications. Worldly Religion has been extremely corrupted,twisted,perverted by man.

Annelise Michel.......aka " The exorcism of Emily Rose" had EXTREMELY FULL BLOWN SEVERE........
PARANOID SCHIZOPHENIA
" CATATONIC SCHIZOPHRENIA"
and...Schizo affective disorder AND Epilepsy. Everytime her symptoms of SCHIZOPHRENIA acted up, they triggered her Epileptic symptoms to act up and vice versa.
If you watch the movie, they even mention symptoms of SCHIZOPHRENIA.

Probably because it was created by man... just a guess..

Without doubt! The bible even warns/warned about this very dilemma! So, who/what is teaching what the bible teaches?

If youve never seen it then YES.
" Dark Shadowy apparitions" is mentioned in the movie, and which is a symptom of SCHIZO AFFECTIVE DISORDER, which i myself experience.
When " Emily " is in her school cafeteria and the noises of the spoons/fork clanking againest plates,bowls,etc.......Which is another symptom of Schizophrenia, meaning........with SCHIZOPHRENIA, all of your SENSES are VERY ENHANCED, like " hearing ". Some of the slightest noises can be very " loud " and very irritating.
Another scene from the movie/symptom of Schizophrenia/schizo affective disorder, is when the PRIEST is talking about when EMILY would try and eat, she couldnt " swallow " her food/ " the demons " wouldnt let her. Back before i was on medication, i would experience the same thing. I would hear voices, telling me if i tried swallowing my food, i would choke and if i did swallow my food, it felt like i wasnt controlling my own throat/swallowing functions on my own, which is also a symptom of SCHIZO AFFECTIVE DISORDER.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizoaffective_disorder Under " signs/symptoms" youll come across some of the things that i just mentioned AND that are mentioned in the movie.

Matthew 7:15-17
"(15) “Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. (16) By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? (17) Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit."
1 John 4:20
"Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen."
2 Corinthians 11:13-15
"(13) For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ. (14) And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. (15) It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve."
2 Corinthians 4:4
"Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don’t understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God."

I should write a book saying anyone who disagrees with it is foolish, or of an evil spirit..... brilliant!

Why do you consider Christianity "worldly?"
Can you please share your definition of Christianity?
-
Too me.........Worldly Means " something that occurs all over the world". Therefore Christianity/catholicism, etc.........are " WORLDLY RELIGIONS". I dont have a definition of CHRISTIANITY.

Oh, I tend to think of "worldly" as defined more like this:
world·ly (wûrldl)
adj. world·li·er, world·li·est
1. Of, relating to, or devoted to the temporal world.
1. not spiritual; mundane or temporal
2. Also worldly-minded absorbed in or concerned with material things or matters that are immediately relevant
Do you feel that Christianity and Roman Catholicism are the same?
I still haven't seen that movie...will probably wait till it's free on the HD box!
