Yeah, well, just verify that scientifically and we'll go right along there with ya, cocksucker. Oh wait, you can't, science supports the corollary position, so you're the intellectually lazy one (but we already knew that). Sucks for you to be on the losing side of every argument, don't it? Pretty easy to join the winning one, we won't even make you apologize for being such a fuckass afterward.
Delusion is the common denominator with theistic belief, while perhaps not full-blown psychosis, it's certainly an open door to disaster; how else is forcing a cognitive dissonance (or several) into one's brain and defending it at all costs supposed to be looked at? So thinking it isn't the root cause of at least some severe mental breakdowns is a bit naive. But it also sure as shit isn't helping anyone with a preexisting predisposition toward this disorder or that.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.
