Welcome!
Not sure if we see eye to eye on the mental illness issue. I do believe religion is a fantasy delusion but does not qualify as a "mental Illness". All sorts of delusional people exist in our society and are not considered mentally ill.
As for passed from generation to generation, not genetically but culturally. You are not born with religion but born into religion. Environment, not genetics.
Keep posting away, this is a good place.

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
