00:14I arrived at Ypsilanti State Hospital, summer of 1959.
00:19I left teaching to begin an ambitious study of delusional patients.
00:26I would really like to help you, Joseph.
00:30He's addressed me as my proper name, Jesus Christ, the Righteous One Am I.
00:37I have three patients who believe they're Jesus Christ.
00:42There can be but only one Son of God.
00:45That's my point.
00:47Address me by my righteous name, God to you.
00:51I want to put the three of them in a room and study their behavior.
00:54What do you think will happen?
00:56I don't have a clue.
00:58The reason I'm having these meetings is that there can only be one Jesus.
01:02Only one God.
01:03One God, two Rewise Hicks.
01:05I'm shaking off all of your negativity and all of your squelches, all of your squelching.
01:09We do not have false hollowed out gods in great vision.
01:12Did our father send a boy to do a man's job?
01:14Knock it off.
01:16Knock it off!
01:18Alan, please be careful.
01:24Is it possible to really understand someone else's delusion?
01:30There are limits you can't exceed.
01:33It's brave and important what you're doing.
01:36You decide if the gains outweigh the obvious risks.
01:42Gentlemen, I want one of you to lead each of the meetings.
01:45I think we should have a vote.
01:47I nominate Joseph.
01:49Do all favor.
01:58Unanimous.
02:02Why do you want to work with power lights, Christopher Nix?
02:06Because it's so lonely.
02:08By the grace of Jesus Christ, you are saved.
02:12Companionship.
02:13Joy.
02:14Hope.
02:16Will I be able to offer these men a means to find themselves?
02:32Unanimous.
02:33Well, enjoy.
02:44Grazie.
