Some folks interpret their hallucinations as communications from a deity. Ex post facto examination of the "information" furthers that impression if the person is religiously inclined.
And no, not people who have had a religious experience are mentally ill.
But that's the way to bet.
Why is that? Are you perhaps only thinking of extreme examples and surplanting them to everything else?
Is there any connection to any of this to the video, other that a loose connection between assumptions, and the video topic?
