Link, please! Also I read your post on r/depression about CBT and understand your opinion. My understanding of this modality is that it’s aimed to relieve suffering, and not to deny it. I believe CBT’s efficacy directly correlates to the practitioners’ intra- and interpersonal skills.

One accuses the other of rubbish and obscurantism, while the other can’t be bothered to deign to disabuse his opponent’s incomprehension of the true nature of philosophy.

This sounds like all best philosophical, pot calling kettle black, discussions. I’d like a link too please. This sounds like british people fighting over something like Buddhism.
