The Bible - secrets of the tragedy...

[Jane]

I also think the use of 'SYC' was inserted as reference to 'GOD'...

Sorry, you're wrong. Had a search through some theology books and there's no reference of SYC to God. I found Allah, Yaweh, Jehovah, Creator, The Great I Am. All God personal. Then of course, there's the generic ones, ie deity and daemon. No SYC.

Patron Saint of the poor, charities and lost causes...

I thought that was St. Jude.

He was the patron saint of wine - lost causes was Jude

Vincent de Paul was a French priest in the late 1500's who dedicated himself to the care of the poor.

It most definitely IS NOT. Psych is always written using the Greek glyph.

More likely to be psychiatrist being that her mother had also received treatment. You've got psychopath on the brain.

Not by everyone it would seem. Unless you,of course,know different.

How on earth do you make that leap? Why would I refer to the doctor I shared with my mother as "octo"?

Well, being as Sheila didn't write it, she wasn't referring to anything and we all have a psychopath on the brain - each time we post here.

Well I didn't think you could get any sillier but---------------back to splitting hairs aren't you ?

Let's put it this way, I stand a better chance of proving to be UNtrue, that you have of proving it true. It isn't another name for God and it's not a diminutive of psychiatrist, psychologist, psychotic. Course, if an illiterate 'sycopath' wrote it......................

[lookout]

What's wrong with " doc " for short,that EVERYONE knows. Bit different when it comes to the spelling of PSYCHIATRIST isn't it ?

[Jane]

And I didn't think I'D see the day arrive when you became daft enough or desperate enough to make such a ludicrous connection. But there ya go, eh?
