Quote:Bold mine. A cure for theism? I'm scared to ask. Would you expect this to be forced upon people? A theist is not going to submit themselves for "treatment". There is nothing particular about theism here, any kind of delusion can be broken with regular talking therapies, but it requires cooperation and motivation from the deluded person.
If you're suggesting optional clinics are offered where you can get "cured of theism", do you really expect a single person to attend?
This is why I was saying the first step being is to have the medical profession recognise that Theism is a delusion. That's the start. Once that is done, then we work towards changing society's attitude in the same direction. Reference getting each individual to acknowledge their Theism as being delusional, that's covered in the "I'm Not Sick" book from the previous link I posted.
This is most definitely not something that's going to happen over night. I suspect that it would take several generations for such a change to occur...
