I don't think that religion is inherently linked with mental illness, but I do think some mental illnesses can lead to religion. I'm undecided about those who speak in tongues, etc. Is "crazy" the same as "mentally ill"? People who say that god told them to kill some guy who was possessed by Satan are definitely mental, though.
