Psychologist William R. Coulson is watching the story of priest molestation unfold before his eyes. It is a story in which he knows the beginning, but has yet to see the end.
Now he watches in horror the deeds played out in these men who have embraced the evil ushered in by the humanistic psychology movement in America. That movement had Carl Rogers, Abraham Maslow and Bill Coulson at the helm.
They were asked to come into the church and broke all of the rules of tradition and counsel given for 2000 years. Get in touch with the feelings, forget the Ten Commandments was their mantra ... and they did that.
And now, we have the Bishop Ziemann's, and Shanely's, and the like destroying the reputation of the Catholic Church, and tarnishing the men and women doing a great service to humanity. They are embarrassed, ashamed, and feeling betrayed. Carl Rogers and Abraham Maslow though they saw the horror they had created, could do nothing to stop it ... Their voices of danger do not echo in the great cathedrals in America ... they are dead and the horror they created lives on.
At Culture Shock we introduced Bill Coulson to the world. Some have accepted his story and historical career. However many have not. We have alerted the likes of Fox News, MSNBC, the Networks and the printed press as well. Diane Sawyer wanted to do something on Coulson a few years ago on PrimeTime Live but didn't. He was on 20/20 telling them what TMP Too Much Psychology was doing to a generation of public school kids. Were they listening at ABC? Not.
He told us what Rogers said about all this, " I started this Damn thing and look where it's taking us, I don't know where it's taking me ... Perhaps to places we may regret"
Perhaps bishop Ziemann can tell us how it all started ... and where did Shanely get his ideas that boys and men could have sex.
The San Francisco Faith in an interview with Bill Coulson said this at the introduction, "Two and a half years ago, George Neumayer, then editor of the Faith,
interviewed William Coulson about his work during the 1960s with colleague Carl Rogers. The two were among many modern humanistic psychologists who were invited into seminaries and convents across the United States in the wake of Vatican II. From 1967-1969, they were invited to teach their theories at the Jesuit theologate near Los Gatos, the Sisters of Mercy in Burlingame, and in San Francisco, the Congregation of the Sacred Heart, which was then located at Lone Mountain.
The council inspired the American Church to teach to its seminarians the latest ideas in modern psychology, but to their later regret, Coulson and Rogers found their legacy as humanistic psychologists to be the dismantling of many convents and seminaries throughout California and elsewhere. By the mid-70s, both Rogers and Coulson had retracted their beliefs. But Coulson still believes that their ideas, and the ideas of Abraham Maslow, in particular, sowed the seeds for the moral crisis in religious life that is clearly evident today."
Isn't that news ... Isn't that big news?!!! I SAY, ISN'T THAT BIG NEWS?!!!
Well, we still do the same old talking heads in boxes ... And the heads scream at each other. Better to do that than to have a talking head with solutions and answers ... Oh, can't do that ... no conflict.
When will we wake up? Realize while we were sleeping something sinister crept into our lives into our very being. It changed everything as we knew it and we did not recognize its power over us. It changed our courts it changed the schools, the church and us as a people.
We never think upon psychology as the cause and effect of the problems we face today. Or that we put our trust in a therapist in a kind of priestly manner ... rather religiously as a matter of fact. In her column Psychiatry as a Religion,
Carol Ann Lindsay says, "It's doctrines are chronicled in psychiatry's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) the "bible" of mental illness. It's bishops are psychiatrists and it's priests are psychologists. Psychiatric parishes include churches, schools, clinics, hospitals, and the personnel and training offices of both businesses and government agencies. Members include most of the general populace who generally accept the tenets of psychiatry.
The religion of psychiatry is mainly defined as related to human behavior and the brain, thus excluding the spirit or soul of man, even though psych means soul. Through this denial of the soul, psychiatry is destroying the spirit of man and has become a powerful cult."
Is that what Coulson, Rogers and Maslow did? Can we look deep into our souls, when we have lost that, to the wizards of the mind? And did the men who gave their lives in vows to God and to follow His precepts ... Fall prey to all of this, all of it? Well, yes they did ... Big time.
William R. Coulson a man of courage and because of his stand to admit the err of the century ... He is the Man of the Hour.
