Complimentary Diagnosis: for creationist fundy religious nut cases..compulsive delusionary behavior

***
Here is what psychologists actually say:

   "A very strong case can be made that many of the steadfastly-
    religiously-convinced are actually mentally ill. The pleasant
    escape from reality that they so often indulge in is no
    more than the escape psychotics experience when they seek
    refuge from reality in a delusional dreamworld of imaginary
beliefs."


(DSM III-R is the official catalogue of mental illness by the
American
Psychiatric Association.  DSM-IV is now available and the DSM-V
Prelude
