Believing in Deities is a Form of Psychosis
#20
RE: Believing in Deities is a Form of Psychosis
No, having a belief in a deity is not a form of psychosis. That's just a form of intellectual elitism to say so, as there are many intelligent, logical individuals who believe in god and are in touch with reality. Being credulous or believing something for bad reasons is not psychosis, if it were many atheists would have to say they once had a psychosis.
Brushing off every single person with a religious belief as a sufferer of psychosis is rather disdainful.
