you'd think it be deaf people, how could they have auditory hallucinations if they cant hear right? well thats not the case. Apparently deaf people can develop schizophrenia, and the auditory hallucinations manifest visually. some say they see hands signing words, or lips mouthing words.
its actually blind people. No person born blind has EVER developed schizophrenia. They are immune to auditory hallucinations. well i guess visual too seeing as they are blind but regardless I find this fact strange enough to share.
That's just the thing: I believe firmly that there's a science to all of it, one that I suspect would allow humanity to escape from it completely. For example, the relatively simple developments of germ theory, disinfectants, and antibiotics have averted incalculable suffering and death.
What we see, though, is that different groups of people pursue different paths according to their preconceptions and preferences. Psychiatrists prescribe anti-psychotics, exorcists pray and sprinkle holy water, and the zealots get in people's faces about how they need to repent. I'm not saying all these are totally useless, but I can guarantee none of them will lead to a solution. Already given much time, they certainly have not.
Conspiracy theorists like to lament the death of science then point their fingers and "reee!" at Dr. Fauci, which I'm sure that makes them feel superior. But what I describe here, the utter lack of even the concept of approaching demonic possession as a scientific investigation, is where I really see the failure of humanity to understand the very soul of science.
I think we're on the same page.
