I’m guessing it’s meant to be "mental illness" or something.
Feel free to send me a private message.

Difference between faith and insanity is that faith is the ability to hold firmly to a conclusion that is incompatible with the evidence, whereas insanity is the ability to hold firmly to a conclusion that is incompatible with the evidence.

No, I don't think belief in God is a clinic.  I've always though of it more as a sidewalk café with moderately rude waiters.

Like a "free clinic" where you go for STD testing and treatment? Yes, god and STD's do make a good analogy. At the free clinic you get antibiotics. What do they give you at the god clinic, ECT, maybe a lobotomy?
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
