Yes, I believe that religious believers should be on some sort of drug therapy for delusional hallucinations.

No man is an island entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main; if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as a manor of thy friends or of thine own were; any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind. And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.

Drugs should be legalized There are numerous arguments for drug legalization. Criminal prohibition of drugs has not eliminated or substantially reduced drug use. The drug war has cost society more than drug abuse itself. Costs include the $16 billion the federal government alone spent to fight drugs in 1998. Of this $16 billion, $10.5 billion pays for measures to reduce the supply of drugs. Most of these measures involve law enforcement efforts to interdict or intercept drug supplies at the borders. Costs also include corruption, damage to poor and minority neighborhoods, a world-wide black market in illegal drugs, the enrichment of criminal organizations through their involvement in the drug trade, and an increase in predatory crimes, such as robberies and burglaries, committed by drug addicts who are enslaved to drugs. Most illegal drugs are no more harmful than legal substances, such as cigarettes and alcohol, and therefore, drugs should be treated the same as these other substances. Legalization would free up billions of dollars that the government now spends on police, courts, and corrections to wage war on drugs and would produce significant tax revenues. The money saved could then be spent on drug education, drug treatment, and law enforcement initiatives directed at more serious crimes. Drug prohibition infringes on civil liberties. The U.S. Supreme Court has decided that because drugs are such a horrible thing, it is okay to bend the Fourth Amendment (which relates to searches and seizures) in order to make it easier to secure convictions in drug cases.

Depends. ONE of the symptoms of demonic activity in ones life is addictive behavior. I am not saying that demons cause all addictions- everyone is responsible for the choices they make. But anything causes someone to be out of control opens that person up to infernal control. All problems are the result of deep rooted spiritual issues and if the program recognizes and deals with those things the yes. But if the program plays the blame game and takes one back into the past then no. Deal with life as it is right now- look forward to a brighter future and move towards that goal. Leave the past behind- it cannot be changed so why revisit it? But that is what many secular drug rehab programs tend to do and leave the patient bitter at others instead of showing the patient that their situation is the result of poor choices they made and it only have themselves to blame.
