Should mental-health professinals really consider "God's punishment" as
an explanation for mental illness?  (Isn't God satisfied with what can
be done with AIDS?)

Jim G:
I believe that this is A possibility, but one can also argue it's much
more
common in religious individuals because they are much more accountable
to
God for their actions.

Of course, this kind of hypothesizing is undoubtedly viewed by some as
absurd, maybe even prone to disastrous results.
