How to use "Cretin" in context?
Nicholas Jacob "Nick" Erlich was born on September 22, 1928, in Jacksonville, Florida. He was a clinical psychologist, author, and lecturer, who is best known for his book Crazy Love: A True Story of Obsession and Recovery.

As a child, Erlich suffered from a number of mental problems, including an obsession with numbers, which he believed were a sign that he was special.
