A nationwide survey of the religious beliefs and practices of American physicians has found that the least religious of all medical specialties is psychiatry. Among psychiatrists who have a religion, more than twice as many are Jewish and far fewer are Protestant or Catholic, the two most common religions among physicians overall.

"Something about psychiatry, perhaps its historical ties to psychoanalysis and the anti-religious views of the early analysts such as Sigmund Freud, seems to dissuade religious medical students from choosing to specialize in this field,"

The entire original purpose of psychiatry/psychoanalysis was to normalize homosexuality. The Gramscian bolshevists saw the utility of Freud's work in normalizing deviancy and adapted it into the field of social psychology to slowly erode the West's adherence to external, objective authority and morals.

Quality comment. Gets to the heart of their plan. How quickly they gained traction on destroying families by sexualising children too early in life and confusing them about their gender/sex.
