Dr. Richard Friedman clearly believes that psychiatry cannot cure all human ills. And of course, he's right. Some people are just mean people. Some people are just bad people. Some people have no problem with how they are, and have no desire to change.
There is one thing that we can point to that helps to explain the nature of a person.
Romans 3:9-18
9 What then? Are we Jews any better off? No, not at all. For we have already charged that all, both Jews and Greeks, are under sin,
10 as it is written: "None is righteous, no, not one;
11 no one understands; no one seeks for God.
12 All have turned aside; together they have become worthless; no one does good, not even one."
13 "Their throat is an open grave; they use their tongues to deceive.""The venom of asps is under their lips."
14 "Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness."
15 "Their feet are swift to shed blood;
16 in their paths are ruin and misery,
17 and the way of peace they have not known."
18 "There is no fear of God before their eyes."
