Because Christians have become so indoctrinated with the sickness model, they unconditionally accept the diagnosis. Persons who are lazy, irresponsible, bitter, full of self-pity, mean, or immoral are declared to be sick. AIDS was discovered to be a disease. Alcoholism was declared a disease. Cancer was discovered to be a disease. Social anxiety disorder and pedophilia are declared to be diseases. When sin is called a sickness behavior is labeled healthy or unhealthy as opposed to righteous or unrighteous. Drunkards are now in the same category as Alzheimer’s patients. Rebellious children are in the same category as the man with heart disease. A murderer is in the same category as the cancer sufferer. And the man who gambles away his savings, and loses his home to the mortgage company is in the same category as the little girl diagnosed with a terminal brain tumor.
