Thought of the Day #52: Bible and Psychology

And I heard some very wise words last night about the nature of hell:

Hell is filled with people who want what they cannot have and feel suffering as a result.

One of the things that really draws me to the Bible, is just how relatable it is to just about anything related to society and human nature.

Because in Jungian psychology, it is said that...

The foundation of all mental illness is the avoidance of legitimate suffering. 

Notice how similar they are. And I tend to agree. Because it has been true from my observations. 

Of course, it doesn't tell you why people avoid reality, but this is how it is.
