You're viewing a single thread.
You know, some day extreme religious belief will be classified as a mental illness. I hope I live to see it.
I asked someone who said they are a psychiatrist in another thread last week why belief* in any religion outside mainstream religions are classified as magical thinking while belief* in mainstream religions is not. I don't really care what beliefs people entertain as long as they're not mentally or physically harming* anyone, I just really want to know how DSM psychiatrists reconcile that.
*Autocorrect
Well, what did they say?

Nothing lol
They are asking what the psychiatrist in the other thread said
If the organization has enough capital to hinder the APA, it is a religion. If they don't, it is magical thinking and delusion.
So the ToS* flavor of satanism stands a chance ay becoming non-delusional.
- AI autocorrect and/or network latency is really annoying
The difference is entirely political, not scientific.
Probably.
There's another option, which is that the extreme doomsday beliefs become a self-fulfilling prophecy and no one lives to see it classified as a mental illness outside of the momentary 'oops' when things are crashing down all around and no dead bodies come floating down from the sky to stop it.
I think about Popper's paradox more and more these days.
