This book provides instruction in applying basic treatment
strategies to patient care. Emphasis is placed on teachi. ng
diagnostic skills, and especially, the therapeutic management of
emotionally disturbed patients. This book is intended as a
companion text to Basic Psychopathology: A Programmed Text, whi. ch
focuses more on teaching the description and observational skills
for diagnosing common psychopathologic syn- dromes. Basic
Psychotherapeutics gives pragmatic suggestions for treating a
variety of psychopathologic disorders, many of which are newly
classi- fied in the Diagnostic Statistical Manual - III (DSM-II1)
published by The American Psychiatric Association. We have adopted
the terminology and many, but not all, of the diagnosti. c criteria
used in DSM-III. The treatment recommendations proposed are
eclectic in nature and the infor- mation presented is
non-theoretical and patient centered. Basic Psychotherapeutics is
divided into three parts. The first re- views basic data collection
procedures and treatment skills; it includes chapters on
interviewing, the mental status examination and pharmaco- logic,
psychologic and behavioral therapy. The next section includes
chapters on commonly encountered psychiatric syndromes such as
schiz- ophrenic, affective and anxiety disorders. The final
chapters are pre- sentations of special clinical interest, such as
the management of suicidal patients, psychiatric emergencies,
treating the dying patient and his family, and others.
For there shall arise false Christ's, and false prophets, and shall
shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible,
they shall deceive the very elect.... Matthew 24:24 Nearly thirty
years after The Heylik, Joshua, the Clone of Christ, is approaching
his thirty third birthday
Imagine they set out to clone The Son of God... Imagine they
succeed... Revelation 11:1-14, speaks of two great prophets
emerging on the world scene just prior to Christ's return. They
will wield spiritual powers unprecedented in human history. They
will be able to alter the world geopolitically and astound the
nations. The Bible calls them the two witnesses, the two olive
trees, Joshua and Zerubbabel. The Son of Man will call them... The
Heylik.
Imagine they set out to clone The Son of God... Imagine they
succeed... The story of the infant clone of Christ and his
surrogate parents continue as they flee the long arm of 'The
Vinces.' Rejoin them as they settle in a strange, lawless
wilderness once known as The United States of America...
Imagine they set out to clone The Son of God... Imagine they
succeed... "We haven't had a chance to talk much about what it will
be like to be the parents of such a...unique child." The bride
pulled her eyes away from the groom and considered the priest. "I
thought the Vinces wanted the baby raised in as normal an
environment as possible." The priest smiled. "Yes, that is true,
and for that reason you must never tell anyone who the child really
is." "They covered that when I was being interviewed," the bride
said, "but I never really understood why." The priest stood, walked
around his desk and sat on the corner. "Ok-a hypothetical
situation-we go right to the media and tell them about the baby-"
"I know we can't go to the media," the bride said. "Human cloning
is illegal." The priest held up his hand. "Please hear me out."
"The whole damn world would be camped in our front yard," the groom
said, breaking his silence. "That's what would happen." The priest
pointed at the groom. "Yes, and imagine what it would be like for
the child." "So, we can't tell anyone at all?" the bride said. The
priest ignored her question. "Ok, say you tell your neighbors,
parents, friends, that your little boy is the clone of Jesus Christ
of Nazareth. First of all, they're gonna' think you're crazy, or
maybe they just might believe you. Imagine how they would then
react to the child." "Think of it this way," the priest continued,
rearranging himself on the corner of his desk, "there are roughly
around-oh, let's see-seven billion people in the world today. About
a billion of those people are gonna' believe your little boy is
God's own clone, and some of those folks can be pretty radical.
There will be the crazy fringe bunch: those who will look upon the
child as an abomination, or maybe a threat to their particular
belief system. What I'm telling you now is not hypothetical. We
know for a fact these people exist." "But, what about the baby?"
the bride said. "How can we expect a little child to keep such a
secret?" "Easy, we don't tell him."
