IIDB II Feedback Forums Secular Web Feedback PDA View Full Version : Noble Liar? Harmlessly Delusional? October 9, 2002, 10:24 AM I just finished reading Jim Perry article concerning the McDowell trilemma. Let me first comment that these are difficult issues to discuss: radically different presuppositions, preconceptions, and even predispositions from each side all contribute to much confusion. Wittgenstein once pointed out that we cannot understand each other if we aren't using the same "words" (or using words the same way) - so obvious and yet so difficult. I agree with the argument that there are other conceivable options besides the three given by McDowell. The noble liar argument for example is a possibility. Indeed, there are an infinite number of options in theory, depending on how precise we want to be in shades of gray - e.g. he was a 60% noble, 40% devious liar, or he was only sporadically delusional, etc. But, after considering the other options and their endless variations, I have to affirm that they are all reducible to these three basic categories. We should also note that "noble liar" is a fairly modern rationalization, and would have been incomprehensible a contradiction in terms for the pious, first-century Jew, especially when it comes to claims of being a prophet or Messiah! Remember, Jesus attended the synagogue on the Sabbath, faithfully went to the Temple in Jerusalem during the appointed feasts, and was zealous to defend his innocence with respect to the Torah. He was not, contrary to some Gnostic portraits, some radical antinomian, obviating Moses and the Prophets.

Delusional disorder generally first affects people in middle or late adult life. Delusions tend to be nonbizarre and involve situations that could conceivably occur in real life, such as being followed, poisoned, infected, loved at a distance, or deceived by a spouse or lover. Several subtypes of delusional disorder are recognized. In the erotomanic subtype, the central theme of the delusion is that another person is in love with the individual. Efforts to contact the object of the delusion through telephone calls, letters, or even surveillance and stalking may be common. Behavior related to the delusion may come in conflict with the law.

The suspiciousness may be expressed by overt argumentativeness, recurrent complaining, or hostile aloofness. While individuals with a paranoid personality disorder may appear "e;cold,"e; objective, and rational, they more frequently display hostile, stubborn, and sarcastic affect. They may form negative stereotypes of others and join cults or groups with others who share their paranoid beliefs (DSM IV™, 1994, pp. 634-635). The ICD-!0 (1994, pp. 224-225) describes the paranoid personality disorder as characterized by:

They spend time alone and select activities that do not include interaction with others. The ICD-10 (1994, p. 225) describes the schizoid personality disorder as "e;characterized by withdrawal from affectional, social and other contacts, with a preference for fantasy, solitary activities and introspection. There is a limited capacity to express feelings and to experience pleasures."e; Millon & Davis (1996, p. 217) describe the SPD as the "e;asocial"e; pattern characterized by a deficiency in the ability to experience pleasure. Kalus (1995, p. 58) believes that the schizoid personality disorder is distinguished by the predominance of negative symptoms associated with the schizophrenia spectrum disorders, i.e., social, interpersonal, and affective deficits without psychotic-like cognitive/perceptual distortions.

20. Paranoia Delusions experienced by individuals with delusional disorder are more plausible Persons with paranoid personality disorder tend to be selfcentered, http://www.chclibrary.org/micromed/00059820.html

Main Search Index Definition Description Causes ... Resources Paranoia Definition Paranoia is an unfounded or exaggerated distrust of others, sometimes reaching delusional proportions. Paranoid individuals constantly suspect the motives of those around them, and believe that certain individuals, or people in general, are "out to get them." Description Paranoid perceptions and behavior may appear as features of a number of mental illnesses, including depression and dementia , but are most prominent in three types of psychological disorders: paranoid schizophrenia , delusional disorder (persecutory type), and paranoid personality disorder (PPD). Individuals with paranoid schizophrenia and persecutory delusional disorder experience what is known as persecutory delusions : an irrational, yet unshakable, belief that someone is plotting against them. Persecutory delusions in paranoid schizophrenia are bizarre, sometimes grandiose, and often accompanied by auditory hallucinations . Delusions experienced by individuals with delusional disorder are more plausible than those experienced by paranoid schizophrenics; not bizarre, though still unjustified. Individuals with delusional disorder may seem offbeat or quirky rather than mentally ill, and, as such, may never seek treatment. Persons with paranoid personality disorder tend to be self-centered, self-important, defensive, and emotionally distant. Their paranoia manifests itself in constant suspicions rather than full-blown delusions. The disorder often impedes social and personal relationships and career advancement. Some individuals with PPD are described as "litigious," as they are constantly initiating frivolous law suits. PPD is more common in men than in women, and typically begins in early adulthood.
