I agree that most likely genes, environment and the mind itself are an influence. But is science enough to resolve mental problems?
The mind is very close to a computer. Few people use science to develop or debug software. Even if there is a scientific model that explains why somebody feels bad, is that model enough to determine a cure?
- jhbadger 4y agoThe problem is if you assume a resolution is possible, and it can be shown to work, that is science. When people say "Science can't solve problem X" what they are saying is either "Problem X is unsolvable" or "X isn't really a problem". Science by definition is a a self-updating system that accepts new information based on what works.
