Similarly, ergot poisoning used to be called "witchcraft".
Anyone with half a brain should understand that Big Pharma is just trying to cover up the existence of witches. Clearly all this "medical" stuff is bullshit, especially anything that has anything to do with the mind.
Oh, and brain damage from syphilis is another interesting one. Once upon a time we still understood that some people just go crazy with age. Now doctors are trying to spread this bullshit about how a sexually transmitted virus can destroy your brain- just proof that the doctors are being paid of by the Church, I say.
Ok, so ergot poisoning is comparable to `being a child`? I conclude you think of `being a child` and it's symptoms negative but science just haven't caught up to prove that `being a child` is actually a manifestation of some serious shit going on inwards yet, I'm with you.
"Likewise, ADHD used to be called "being a child," and still is in most parts of the world."
I think it's more nuanced than that. Specifically, "being a child" in a very sedentary, physically restrictive world.
Strong, healthy, young males should not be driven in a car to sit at a desk for 8 hours and then driven home to sit in front of a TV. That describes a fair portion of first world male children and it is (obviously) a recipe for pathology.
