Does The Bible Talk About The Unconscious Mind?
Yes, the Bible talks about the unconscious mind. For example, I John 3:19-21 says:
“(19) And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts (unconscious minds) before him. (20) For if our heart (unconscious mind) condemn us, God is greater than our heart (unconscious mind), and knoweth all things. (21) Beloved, if our heart (unconscious mind) condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God.”
.
Note that the Bible talked about the unconscious mind way before Freud.
All Decisions Must Be Based On Facts
First, let us explain the difference between the moral and the philosophical. The philosophical deals with the general. The moral deals with the specific. The philosophical says people are good. The moral says Joe is good.
Now we can talk about philosophical decisions and moral decisions. A philosophical decision deals with a class of acts; for example, the decision to never kill people is a philosophical decision. On the other hand, a moral decision deals with a single act; for example, the decision to kill the stranger who is about to stab your child in the chest. Now, note how the moral decision contradicts the philosophical decision.
.
The contradiction occurs because the philosophical decision is made without facts while the moral decision is made with facts. The philosophical decision is made with no facts while the moral decision involves the fact that the stranger is about to stab your child in the chest. Obviously, the moral decision has priority over the philosophical decision. Thus, decisions based on facts have priority over decisions not based on facts. To put this another way:
.
All decisions must be based on facts.
Note that the Bible teaches that all decisions must be based on facts; for example, Ephesians 5:15 says
See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise….

Welcome to the tenth generation of our website. You will find our previous website at Pneumiatry: Ninth Generation. “Pneumiatry” is pronounced:
“new-my-uh-tree”
“uh” rhymes with “up” and the “h” is silent. As in the words “psychiatry” and “psychology,” the “P” in “Pneumiatry” is silent.
Is The Mind Governed By The Laws Of Physics?
Is the mind governed by the laws of physics? No, of course not. The mind is governed by the laws of the psyche, which were established by God. For example, let us say there are two chairs in front of you and one is red and one is blue. If we ask you to draw a picture of the blue chair, you recognize the blueness of the blue chair then draw a picture of the blue chair.
Now, with the mind, apart from imaginations, a person cannot draw a picture of anything that occurs in their mind. For example, let us say that you think your full name. If we ask you to draw a picture of the thought of your last name, you draw a picture of your last name. Now, what is it about the thought of your last name that tells you it is your last name? The answer is nothing. How, then, do you know a thought of your last name is a thought of your last name? You know this by assignmettism. Assignmettism is an identity assigned by your unconscious mind (your unconscious mind was created by God).
Now, the unconscious mind does not consciously communicate with you. How, then, does the unconscious mind teach you the identity of a given thought? The answer is that the unconscious mind does not teach you the identity of a given thought. Rather, the unconscious mind “injects” (note quotes; that is, this is functional, not literal, language) the knowledge of the identity of a given thought then enforces the knowledge of the identity of the thought.
What Is Psychiatry?
Why Pneumiatrists Are Smarter Than Psychiatrists
Here are just a few reasons why pneumiatrists (students of pneumiatry [pronounced “new-my-uh-tree”]) are smarter than psychiatrists:
- All pneumiatrists are psychiatrists.
- All pneumiatrists study all sciences.
- All pneumiatrists believe that atheism is both scientifically and psychiatrically unsound.
- All pneumiatrists believe in the existence of the God of the Bible.
- Most nonpneumiatrist psychiatrists suffer from mental illness, ranging from neurotic to disturbed to psychotic.
- Pneumiatrists believe that human beings have both vitalistic (“free will”) and mechanistic (“machine”) aspects (“parts” [note quotes]), while most psychiatrists believe that human beings are nothing more than “machines.”
- Pneumiatrists use more evidence and facts than psychiatrists.
- Pneumiatrists recognize the tripartite nature of man. Psychiatry only recognizes two of the three facets (“parts” [note quotes]) of man.
- Pneumiatrists inform and support Sane Majority and their Mental Health Rules: Sanity Manifesto 7.0 Beta.
We have published over 10,000 reasons why pneumiatrists are smarter than psychiatrists (see our book Pneumiatrists Are Smarter [link not active yet] for a list and explanation of all of these over 10,000 reasons).
Overview
The term “pneumiatry” is used in various senses. However, unless stated otherwise, it is used in its standard sense (see “Terminology” section below). Pneumiatry, regardless of the applicable sense, is a scientific discipline. It is sometimes referred to as “psychiatric Christianity” because, in one usage, it is:
The first behavioral science (science of the mind) that is perfectly consistent with every principle found in the sacred writings of the Christian faith.
In this usage, pneumiatry is:
The first truly Bible-based psychiatry in history
The sciences of “pneumiology,” “pastoral anthropology,” “pneumiatry,” “pastoral anthropiatry,” “anthropiatry,” “psychiatric pneumiatry,” and “pneumiatric psychiatry” were established by Dr. Michael J. Bisconti following primarily in the tradition of Dr. Carl G. Jung. Note that this association with the tradition of Dr. Jung is one that emerged after these sciences had been fully developed and is, at best, minimal.
“Unipsychiatric Theory”
Dr. Michael J. Bisconti is the discoverer of unipsychiatric theory (unified field theory of the human psyche). For the first time in history, a single theory explains how different therapists (psychiatrists, psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, Freudians, Jungians…) are able to believe in differing theoretical constructs regarding the nature of the human psyche. A key principle of unipsychiatric theory is Dr. Bisconti’s historic proof of:
The infinite malleability of intersubjective reality
Unipsychiatric theory is presented in Dr. Bisconti’s psychiatric magnum opus, his three-volume work Unified Field Theory Of The Mind: The Unified Field Theory Of Pneumiatric Psychiatry (located on the original [homemade] website of the L. F. Nexus; login required).
Terminology
- anthropiatry: the science of the healing of human beings from the scientific and fideistic perspectives
- anthropology: the science of human beings
- assessment psychiatry: psychiatric knowledge that enables a nonpsychiatric therapist to determine whether a patient needs to see a psychiatrist
- medicine: the science of the healing of human beings from the scientific perspective; (Medicine is a part of the field of anthropiatry.)
- pastoral anthropiatry: scripturally ethical anthropiatry
- pastoral anthropology: scripturally ethical anthropology
- pastoral psychiatry: pastoral psychology that encompasses assessment psychiatry
- pastoral psychology: psychology utilized in pastoral work
- pneumiatric psychiatry: advanced, safe psychiatry; (Pneumiatric psychiatrists are licensed psychiatrists who have received training in pneumiatry, including psychiatric pneumiatry.)
- pneumiatry: the science of pastoral anthropiatry
- pneumiology: pastoral anthropology
- psychiatric pneumiatry: scripturally ethical, advanced pastoral psychiatry; (Psychiatric pneumiatry is not a medical discipline though it requires a degree of medical knowledge. Pastoral psychiatry is not a medical discipline.)
- psychology: the science of mind and behavior
Institutional Practice
The following pneumiatric institutes, clinics, hospital, and centers are currently in operation in very rudimentary forms. The websites for these institutional entities are under construction.
- American Pneumiatric Psychiatry Institutes
- Pneumiatric Mental Health Clinic
- Chicago Pneumiatric Hospital
- Pneumiatric Multiple Sclerosis Research Center
- Pneumiatric Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center
- Pneumiatric Prebortion Counseling Center
- Pneumiatric Alcoholism Treatment Center
- Pneumiatric Cancer Research Center
- Pneumiatric Diabetes Research Center
- Pneumiatric Drug Treatment Center
- Pneumiatric Heart Research Center
- Pneumiatric Medical Clinic
The Pneumiatry Institute website is now a skeleton of its former self since almost all of its resources have been moved to Chicago Christian University.

Does God Really Put People In Hell?
First posted at //www.lfnexus.com/doesgodreallyputpeopleinhell.htm in 2008 and, here, slightly edited from the 2008 version.
Note: This article is written in the language of our culture, not the language of the King James Bible, though, of course, the language of the King James Bible is a sublime language. In our time and culture, the idea of “people” has been “virtue-ized”; that is, people are seen by most other people as essentially good. For this reason, we must answer the question of whether God really puts people in hell in a very special way.
Does God really put people in hell? We will answer this question in two parts:
First, we will address whether people are put in hell. The answer is:
No, but there are monsters that “fall”‡ into hell and these monsters are people.
Second, we will address whether God chooses to allow the monsters to fall‡ into hell. The answer is:
No, God does not choose to allow the monsters to “fall”‡ into hell but the monsters know that, if God does not give them “saving faith,”† they will “fall”‡ into hell.
To whom does God always give saving faith? Any repentoptic monster who asks him for this faith.
What is saving faith? Saving faith is believing the following message:
A person will experience life in heaven after death because God has promised that they will. The reason for his promise is that they have been rescued from the punishment of their sins. The means of their rescue was the suffering of the punishment by the Lord Jesus Christ in their place.
Note:
There are many who have deluded themselves into thinking they are not monsters.
Now, you may object to the idea that you are a monster but, if so, this may be because you are a baby monster and:
Babies always look harmless, even baby monsters, but baby monsters are still monsters.
Finally, to remove any doubt:
Yes, we are all born monsters. However, we don’t become accountable until we attain a certain level of human maturity. For most people, this happens when they are a child but some people can take longer. To be clear, a person who has not become accountable has nothing to fear.
For more information and insight on this subject, see Chicago University Church.
Footnote:
†Saving faith is believing the following message: A person will experience life in heaven after death because God has promised that they will. The reason for his promise is that they have been rescued from the punishment of their sins. The means of their rescue was the suffering of the punishment by the Lord Jesus Christ in their place.
‡The word “fall” in quotes refers to “the effect of the virtually automatic use of the power of God by God in accordance with the predetermined rule of God.” It is, in effect, not actually, the effect of the action of “divine habit.” This action of virtual divine habit is triggered by the choice of the monsters and without prejudice or bias whatsoever, with absolute impartiality, on the part of God. God’s heart breaks every time a monster “falls” into hell. For our super technical friends, we realize that, currently, hell is actually hades (the punishment is the same). Note that nothing we have said here diminishes one iota the power and authority of God.
Reason For Suffering
For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men.
– Lamentations 3:33
The Bible states that God does not afflict willingly. That is, he does not afflict because he wants to. In other words, there are one or more reasons why God must allow affliction.
Now, some might say that since God is God he can overrule any reason for allowing suffering and therefore prevent all suffering. This notion of overruling of reason for suffering demonstrates a partial ignorance of the nature of God. While God is greater than all things he is not greater than himself. The Bible states:
…he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
– 2 Timothy 2:13
Note the words “he cannot deny himself.” God is not greater than himself. Now, we didn’t need a Bible verse to know that God is not greater than himself. Common sense tells you that no thing is greater than itself. For example, a duck is not greater than itself. A duck can only do what a duck can do. And a man is not greater than himself. A man can only do what a man can do.
Now, some might say that God has no free will if he is not greater than himself. That is foolish. A man has free will yet he cannot operate beyond the limits of his knowledge, ability, and self-imposed intention. Of course, there are no limits to God’s knowledge, ability, and self-imposed intention.
We could address a host of other concerns. We will address one more.
Some might say that if God is subject to his own self-imposed intention doesn’t that mean that God’s self-imposed intention is greater than God and that therefore, since nothing is greater than God, that God cannot be God.
However, God is not a man. His being is multidimensional. One dimension of his being can have a self-imposed intention while another dimension of his being retains the ability to end that self-imposed intention. Since God is God the power dimension of God dominates the dimension of self-imposed intention. There is much, much more we can say on this subject but we believe this is enough for now at least.
