| Σύνοψη: | The thesis of the article is that many of the contemporary movements in psychology, especially in the realm of psychotherapy, are in fact religious systems. They are systems of salvation for secular man. The focal point in all such systems is the doctrine of man — his nature, dilemma, and hope. The doctrines of man advanced by three major systems — psychoanalytic, behaviorist, and humanistic — are analyzed briefly. An analysis of several currently popular systems is presented schematically in terms of Cult, Messiah, Gospel, and Scriptures. A brief statement of some of the author's concerns concludes the article. |
