> Please don't make this political.

I'm sorry but I guess I thought that YOU made this political. By implying that you thought that you would be most likely to find spirituality in a group that stands for 'traditional family values' and by saying that they didn't seem to have room for your views on mental illness. Since you mentioned that they were a political group and you quoted from a political groups views on mental disorder I thought... That this discussion was political as much as spiritual.

I guess I was really just meaning to point out that one could well agree on their stance on pedophilia and nicotine abuse etc (as the majority of people in the world including the majority of mentally ill people would) while thinking that they hadn't properly considered parity of treatment for psychiatric illnesses such as psychosis and depression...

So maybe... There isn't as much disagreement as you thought. That was all...
