I suppose they could count off miracles like the water being turned to wine as hypnosis or mass hallucinations.

Wasn't there something about judge not.
I asked someone once about how do we judge people if we are not suppose to judge and I was told you judge a tree by the fruits it bears. I do charitable work for poor people all the time for free for no donations no tax write offs and it costs me time along with money. So do you see that as a problem as to the fruits that I bear. I certainly do not go around brow beating anyone in the name of religion etc.

Please stick to your answers even if I do not agree with it if it does not violate Yahoo answers it cannot be complained about. I am just curious what everyone thinks about this question not as to what they think about me when they do not know me.

OH sorry you must have missed my question about evolution months ago such that you are finally answering it here. Please reread the question and answer relative to the question. Thank you.

Thanks these answers for the most part are great I was just curious if anyone thought they could dismiss it or misdiagnose the truth. I do not think I can pick from the good ones thanks.

Evolution Explained
by David A. Rizwan
Evolution. Most people have heard of it, but not too many believe that it is possible. However, most people that see it as false do not understand it. I will try to clarify the blurry points in the Modern Evolutionary Theory. Simply put, Evolution is the process through which animals change over time. However, this seems to sum the story up a little too much. Most people that do not believe in Evolution do not fully understand it. Those people believe that the theory says that humans came from monkeys. This is not true. Those people believe that if an animal evolves, there is no prerequisite to the present animal alive. This is not true either.
The Theory of Evolution simply explains how life changes over time. This isn’t a few weeks, years, or even centuries. In most cases, this takes millions of years to be complete. The whole evolution process begins with a mutation. A mutation is any animal that is different from the norm. For instance, an albino garter snake is a mutation. A lucistic alligator is a mutation. Anything that is not normal in a living creature’s DNA is a mutation. It is obvious that some mutations would be more beneficial than others. This is where “Survival of the Fittest” comes into play. For instance, a longer bill on a nectar-feeding bird is beneficial, as it allows the bird to gather nectar much easier. Other mutations, such as an albino snake in a dark green jungle, are actually malicious. It is obvious that this snake will not be able to camouflage from predators while it is still young, making it an easy meal. The snake will never survive to the age to reproduce. The animals that are best matched to their environment will survive more, thus reproduce more.
There are sometimes periods in which the environment changes, such as the Ice Age. During the period of time, most of the world became icy and snow covered. The animals with a gene to have longer hair would usually die of heat exhaustion in the previous era. But now their hair is able to keep heat in their body, allowing them to survive better than the non-haired ones. The without hair began to die out, leaving only the ones with hair. The species had just evolved. As the environment changes, those that are fit to the new environment survive and reproduce, those that aren’t, die off.
Sometimes animals are separated from other animals of their species, such as the Galapagos Islands. These animals have a closed gene pool away from the other animals, and they also live in a different terrain type. This means that two samples of a species can evolve differently. One sample of a bird species may develop a longer bill to allow for easier food gathering, while the other sample develops a shorter bill for more control over the bill, and the final sample of the bird species may remain unchanged. Eventually through these changes and others, the two birds will eventually be so different that they can no longer reproduce. Another new species now exists.
Many believe that there is no evidence to support evolution. On the contrary, there is much more evidence than the other theories for how life came to be. When you compare two cats taxonomically, they are the same species. They can reproduce and produce fertile young. This means that all of the cat species are the same, Felis Domesticus. How did all of these come to be? Selective breeding is the key. Selective breeding is basically forced evolution upon a species. When people saw the first Siamese cat, they decided to make more. By breeding them with another cat, there is a chance to produce more of that mutation. More evidence to prove the existence evolution is homologous structures. These are structures that are made of the same thing, but fill different tasks. If you examine the skeletal structure of a whale flipper, it has the same bones as a human hand. There are many other situations such as this.
In conclusion, Evolution is a rather simple topic if you put time into fully understanding it. To evolve, all a species needs is a beneficial mutation and the death of the original version of the species. When an isolated species evolves away from the original population, it will form a new species. Since the original version is still alive, the species hasn’t evolved, but a new species has formed.

Since Jesus Christ is perfect, a psychiatrist would not be able to diagnose any form of disease/problem.
Hypnosis can only "try" to control someones mind and cannot be responsible for turning water into wine. Also, the mass hallucination would be diagnosed for the people who saw Jesus turn the water into wine, not for Jesus himself.

I met a person once who really thought he was Jesus, the psychiatrists had diagnosed him with a type of functional schizophrenia and put him on meds...when he didn't take them he thought he could turn water into wine and multiply fishes and loafs of bread.
Now, if Jesus really did ever come back, I'm sure they would lock him up because he'd appear to be suffering from schizophrenia.

Actually, Psychiatrists and Doctors from all around the world would be amazed if you think about it. If you had a man (J.C.) actually go about and healing the sick and raising the dead without the use of medicine, and they did a thorough exam of the cured ones, they would be stunned and shocked. And if he turned water into wine and you DRANK IT, how would it be a hallucination? And you'd also have to be a pretty damn great hypnotist to fool millions.

They would be too busy trying to figure out how people were flying and how they themselves were suffering the delusion that the dead were rising to try to make any diagnoses.

Unfortunately, he'd be a paranoid schizophrenic, with delusions of grandure.
1) hearing of voices
2) fortelling his death by the jews
3) saying he is the son of God
4) perfroming miracles etc.

I think Jesus would be diagnosed with pathological narcissistic disorder, for claiming to be the only son of God and also for claiming that no one can have a relationship with God unless it's through him.
