God invented “psychology.”

No, He didn't.

It is antithetical, from its roots, to God.

The scientific study of mental functions and behaviors is antithetical to God?

FWIW, I am a big fan of nouthetic counseling, a biblical approach to counseling first proposed by Jay Adams and more recently associated with David Powlison and others. I appreciate the work of the Christian Counseling & Educational Foundation (CCEF).

That said, I maintain that God conceived of our “mental functions and behaviors,” and enjoys when people study these things. I also maintain that God does perform miracles, and sometimes He transforms people over time.
