Doesn't it even occur to you that there are psychiatrists and psychologists who are Christians? How limited you must be.Only a damned fool would think that someone in that type of position wouldn't go along with the President....especially if they want to keep their job. CIA officials have admitted that they were coerced.
You're the bigger fool, wanting to believe there was no lie when everyone with a brain knows there was because the liars have admitted it. It appears that you are lacking in the "history" department....that nobody has rewritten, the Bush Administration just finally came clean. Educate yourself.
The Bush administration exerted significant pressure on the intelligence community to provide justification for the Iraq War. According to John Brennan, who was Deputy Director of the CIA at the time, “we were being asked to do things and to make sure that that justification was out there.”
“At the time there were a lot of concerns that it was being politicized by certain individuals within the administration that wanted to get that intelligence base that would justify going forward with the war,” Brennan told PBS. When asked who was exerting this pressure, Brennan said “Some of the neocons” in the administration “were determined to make sure that the intelligence was going to support the ultimate decision.”
And Paul Pillar, the CIA officer who led the hurried effort to provide Congress with a National Intelligence Estimate on Iraq’s WMD programs – an estimate that ultimately contained falsities that the administration retroactively used to justify their incorrect assessments – said, “The atmosphere in which they were working, in which a policy decision clearly had already been made, in which intelligence was being looked to to support that decision rather to inform decisions yet to be made, was a very important part of the atmosphere.”

Is that the same John Brennan that sucked up to Obama to get appointed as the CIA Dired
Well, TT, in your post 963, you are SURE that they got counseling. In my post 964, I GUESSED that they got little or none.
Which of us is exaggerating the most?
Since I said they got counseling IF they needed it, I was not guessing. You were.
Ok, You are SURE that they got counseling if they needed it. Please document a source as to whether they needed it or not. If they did, with whom, and when did they get it?
Link please.
I am sure you are not a Christian and have no idea what the power of faith can do. Some times professional counseling is needed, but fellow Christians are a lot more help during a crisis than a non-believing shrink. I strongly suspect that if the parents decided their girls needed to get so-called professional help they certainly could afford it. So why don't you can just take your Christian hatred and shove it!
There are preachers that offer counseling that is much better than any shrink.
Possibly, but what problem do you have with someone who is a professional, with a degree in psychiatry or counseling, and who is also a Christian?
Also, you should not assume that anyone who is not a practicing Christian now wasn't born and raised a Christian. I'm baptized and went to Sunday school and church services until I was 14 and decided for myself to no longer be involved in organized religion. So, whatever assumptions you make about people because they are not practicing Christians, you are most likely wrong. Many people who are not Christians have intimate knowledge of Christianity.
