[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 144858, member: 1991"] I'd give more credence to a medical professional and less to a spiritual advisor, if you find yourself not in full agreement. And I'm not at all anti-spiritual, I've also used spiritual advisors in my time but it's just that in my experience, spiritual advisors can have their drawbacks. They may not be professionally trained as counsellors (I don't count Bible college as counselling training); they may have a spiritual agenda rather than a medical one; the waters in general can be muddy. Or they could be brilliant. But it's like a science textbook we had when I was a kid. The text G was a good read, it was enjoyable, but occasionally there were mistakes. Text K, on the other hand, was dry and dull, but always accurate. Our science teacher said to us, "I've got you lot well trained. When you notice a discrepancy between G and K, you immediately assume G is wrong. Well done!" I'm the same with spiritual advisors. Marg [/QUOTE]
