Has the world gone mad? Indeed, at no other time in the history of this planet have more people been diagnosed 'mentally ill' than today.
Times have certainly changed - there's no doubt about it. Right and wrong have become matters for debate. Truth is now relative. Virtue is mocked and ridiculed. Religion battered and despised. Criminal behaviour is now excused under the banner of 'irresistible impulse' and 'diminished capacity'. Doors that once were open are now chained and double-bolted.

the playground for drug dealers, pornographers, Satanists and constant youth
violence. Millions of children are daily drugged up because they have been
diagnosed 'mentally ill'.
