I put more weight in what the pastor says over a physciatrist and I am not even religious. The pastor sees it like it is - a man with free will and low morals making the wrong choices. The pysch may try to say he does what he does because of society and his upbringing. The physch might even make Dan out to be a victim. Rubbish.

Dont try to analyze too much into what makes Dan tick. What is more important is to plan your life and how to coparent the kids in peace.
