It depends on the severity of course; however such impairment can lead to, or at least imply, a lack of critical thinking in other areas, which leaves a person ripe for fleecing by those out to capitalise on the gullible. That's largely how Trump happens.
"how Trump happens." You do like to start tropes. People are still over there in that other thread talking about practicing their aim when they miss god. A linguistic trend setter you are.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers.

Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.
