Well, there is another aspect of this
religion is not a cause of mental disease.
But a person must take some medication and/or have some treatment (just see a professional, for example).
But a preacher, a Bible study group leader, or some other religious authority can tell that medication is bad and psychiatrists are bad.
No, Tom Cruise is the first person who comes to mind.
Then Jehovah Witnesses (no, they don't say that psychiatric treatment is bad, but blood infusions are bad)
Some other cases I should know?
