I think their point about mental health is that it seems to contradict the Gen-Y claims that they are happy; and therefore there is hope that they may realise that their worldview is empty, that it is not bringing them happiness, and instead they would look for happiness in Christ.

I love the IPU icon! Nice to see someone holding traditional values in the face of all this new-fangled pastafarian nonsense. ;-)

I can. Right now, he's doing it right now.
