Police Escort...Understood. If I could, I'd thank the last pair of cops that arrested me. I was tired of being a functional drunk, as I called it. Perhaps, more so, I was tired of going to jail. But I digress. I'm sure you'll have some insightful stories t

My problem is that I don’t believe in psychology. I am a psychology atheist. I believe in animal behaviorism, because that is scientific and repeatable.

If you can’t repeat it, it isn’t science. Remember the recent study where they re-did a bunch of famous psychology experiments? Only a small fraction yielded the same results. Not repeatable; not science.

A friend and I were talking about acupuncture, how it’s an ancient and respected practice. How it works for many people. How it may be, like psychology, a pseudo-science. But we concluded: Whatever works. Maybe it’s the placebo effect, maybe it’s real, but who cares if it’s working?

This is why psychology will never work for me. I simply don’t believe that it will.
