So you admit they're mostly rational, just not about the religion part which is my point exactly. Thank you for agreeing with me!

I'm not exactly agreeing with you because what you are saying is your point does not jive with the generalization that religion = mental illness. I think it's important to point this out because that kind of generalization is along the same lines as religious people saying things like atheism = amorality or even immorality. Generalizations like that are bad arguments regardless of who is making them.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
