RE: Very well put..

Obviously, in most cases good science will prevail. Electrical engineering is a great example.

"I mean, we don't really do trephening or prefrontal lobotomies anymore." Wrong about lobotomies. The only difference is that we now do them chemically rather than surgically. Been there, done that.

"Many academic scientists are now questioning and exploring what effects different pharmaceuticals actually have." Thank God, that's why I love you guys!!! Europe is a great example. All their trials, say for SSRIs, were done by academic scientists, not paid corporate pharma scientists. That's why that class of drugs has not been approved in most of Europe. But they are handing them out like candy in the US and Russia and destroying countless lives. Especially horrifying to me is what we are doing to our children.

"Time will decide what remains as true science." That hasn't happened yet with mental health science, for several centuries (with one interesting exception that has nothing to do with science) to this very minute.

"Where we are now in pharmaceuticals is different from where we will be 200 years from now, and that future destination will be the result of science over time, including overcoming numerous theories that fell by the wayside along the way." Yeah, based on the trends from several hundred years to the present, that really scares me. Brave New World anyone...
