Line 1: − '''M. Scott Peck''', M.D. (1936-2005) was unusual among psychiatrists because he professed a belief in God and prayed for divine help. + − Dr. Peck was the author of ''The Road Less Traveled'' and also ''People of the Lie''. − − ==Quotes== − *... we do not yet have a body of [[scientific knowledge]] about human [[evil]] deserving of being called a [[psychology]]. Why not? The concept of evil has been central to religious thought for millennia. Yet it is virtually absent from our science of [[psychology]] — which one might think would be vitally concerned with the matter. (''People of the Lie: The Hope for Healing Human Evil'', pp. 39–40) − *As well as being the Father of Lies, Satan may be said to be the spirit of [[mental illness]]. In ''The Road Less Traveled'' I defined [[mental health]] as “an ongoing process of dedication to reality at all costs.” Satan is utterly dedicated to opposing that process. In fact, the best definition I have for Satan is that it is a real spirit of unreality.
