I really hate to hear that sort of thing, PJ -- and I have, believe me -- because it seems so cruel. "Gee, you should stop taking insulin for your diabetes, because it won't cure you." Same thing.

I don't know quite why this idea is still making the rounds. Szasz used to get a huge amount of press on it, through some rather specious arguments, and that may be part of it. If you didn't listen too closely, you could certainly find some seeming logic to it.
