To blame this tragedy on religion is to turn a blind eye to mental health disorders.
I don't know the state of affairs in America, but I would be more inclined to blame the government for lack of funding.
That and the ignorance the general public have towards mental health.
Possibly many tragedies could be avoided if people picked up symptoms earlier and there was help to be had.

If the god fantasy delusion did not exist (heaven, hell, reward, punishment, not deserving to live, saving through death) would she have chosen an alternate delusion to fixate on? Maybe one with potentially less deadly outcomes? We can only speculate.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
