Hey Band on the Run!
I guess the website makes it seem as if he is still around. That's what I love about the internet. Great ideas can live on past the individual until people and societies are more ready for them. So those of us who feel we have got good ideas we want to leave behind better get a move on before our time on this planet is up.
According to Wikipedia Thomas Szasz died September 8, 2012 (aged 92).
i believe in god but i'm not sure of anything....what about you?.
I believe in Science, God, God's word or message (the liberating gospel of grace and peace), faith, spirituality and humanity.
I do not believe in the god of religion, although I do believe in his existence, his bad influence, and his great fear of the gospel/faith/spirituality/humanity/science/God.
Whilst I am sure of the expansive and comprehensive gospel and God's existence, there is still a lot left to learn and understand, but much of this will have to wait until the next life which I believe is eternal.
wow, it's true - they don't call to 'promote god's kingdom' anymore but just their website!.
we just had an old lady call and tell us that was exactly what they were doing and it has "lots of good things on their for children".
yeah, right ... sparlock?.
JWs - Knock, knock.
HH - Good day, would you like to learn how to use your own website?
JWs - enter and sit down
HH - Let's go to wol.jw.org and count how many times your Bible uses the phrase "Good News" and how many of these are by Paul.
JWs - The phrase "Good News" appears 152 times in our Bible. 85 of these are by Paul.
HH - Why then is the "Good News" according to Paul not in your hearts or on your lips?
JWs - We are only the drones, and will need to go find one of our Sanhedrin's Pharisees to answer your question.
HH - The Pharisees hate the "Good News" according to Paul. I invite you instead to make a personal study of the "Good News" according to Paul, and return to me when it is in your hearts and on your lips.

cchr.org is considered by some to be a front for Scientology.
From http://www.szasz.com/enemies.html :
The following statement is intended as response to requests for clarification regarding Dr. Szasz's co-founding of the Citizens Commission for Human Rights (CCHR). Thomas Szasz is not now nor has he ever been a Scientologist or a member of the Church of Scientology.
Dr. Szasz co-founded CCHR in the same spirit as he had co-founded -- with sociologist Erving Goffman and law professor George Alexander -- The American Association for the Abolition for Involuntary Mental Hospitalization (AAAIMH; see http://www.szasz.com/abolitionist.html)
Scientologists have joined Szasz's battle against institutional psychiatry. Dr. Szasz welcomes the support of Jews, Christians, Muslims, and any other religious or atheist group committed to the struggle against the Therapeutic State. Sharing this battle does not mean that Dr. Szasz supports the unrelated principles and causes of any religious or non-religious organization. This is explicit and implicit in Dr. Szasz's work. Everyone and anyone is welcome to join in the struggle for individual liberty and personal responsibility -- especially as these values are threatened by psychiatric ideas and interventions.

An interesting book by Psychiatrist Thomas Szasz has been brought to my attention via PM:

This exchange of letters between Karl Menninger (of the famous Menninger Institute in Topeka Kansas) and Thomas Szasz may also be of interest:

This seems to be video 4 in a series. It mentions the 5th video in the series which apparently talks about depression...

There are several Psychiatrists who are/were to varying degrees involved with anti-psychiatry, that will give you all the cons of taking addictive and synthetic medicines.
Some names that come to mind: Peter Breggin, Thomas Szasz, Ronald Laing, Al Siebert, and Courtenay Harding.
Some of their books may also be useful.
Depression is serious enough to demand pro-active and professional attention.
Professionals that may be able to help with alternative therapies and medicines: Psychologist, Naturopath, Exercise Physiologist, and so on...
Integrative Medicine recognises that there are multiple dimensions to health and illness, along with many different types of medicine. This is reflected in the body-mind-spirit-social model.
Exercise is medicine (aerobic more so than anaerobic), laughing is medicine, sex is medicine, fruit and vegetables are medicine, quality sleep is medicine, and so on...
No, it was receiving the free gift of faith (a higher level of consciousness) that allowed me to see the wilful blindness of the Pharisees and to reject their claimed authority.
