7 Reasons Why Religion Is A Mental Disorder by Nobody: 3:27am On Feb 03, 2013 |
From the geniuses at reddit; 7 Reasons why Religion is a Mental Disorder (1) Hallucinations - the person has invisible friends who (s)he insists are real, and to whom (s)he speaks daily, even though nobody can actually see or hear these friends (2) Delusions - the patient believes that the invisible person has magical powers to make them rich, cure cancer, bring about world peace, and will do so eventually if asked. (3) Denial/Inability to learn - though the requests for world peace remain unanswered, even after hundreds of years, the patients persist with the praying behavior, each time expecting different results (4) Inability to distinguish fantasy from reality - the beliefs are contingent upon ancient mythology being accepted as historical fact. (5) Paranoia - the belief that anyone who does not share their supernatural concept of reality is "evil," "the devil," "an agent of Satan" (6) Emotional abuse - religious concepts such as sin, hell, cause feelings of guilt, shame, fear, and other types of emotional "baggage" which can scar the psyche for life (7) Violence - many patients insist that others should share in their delusions, even to the extent of using harassment and violence. 3 Likes |

davidylan: That is the point. Many religious people are actually suffering from a mild form of delusions of grandeur and paranoia! |

@op! Don't tell me you believe only in the imaginative concept of evolution by the scientists. 1. ђ☺ made up words? 2. ђ☺ made up numbers? 3. Why is there so many languages ΑϞ∂ ♓☺w come about these plenty languages? Aside these, Do you believe in witchcraft ΑϞ∂ wizardry? Or do you believe that there are forces that operate in different realms on the earth? Do you believe in the metaphysical? If you believe in any of these, then you need an emergency psychological attention. EVIDENCE THAT YOU ARE DELUSIONAL: Thinking that those ђ☺ does not share the same school of thought with you are delusional, is an act of harassment ΑϞ∂ you are supposed to be in an asylum, with zillions of psychologist to rehabilitate you. |

Omexonomy: How did this become the first tread in this section. I was quite pleasantly surprised to see this. It's about time. I wouldn't go quite as far to say it's a mental disorder but rather a continuation of childhood fantasy. And there is a Bible verse which describes this perfectly: "When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me." 1 Corinthians 13:11 |

Bélla3: Dude, do you even sleep? Why? Were you thinking of me in bed? |
Re: 7 Reasons Why Religion Is A Mental Disorder by Bella3(f): 11:51am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Logicboy03:yes, i had a vision... I hope you know lack/inadequate sleep causes gibberish and confused talk? |
Re: 7 Reasons Why Religion Is A Mental Disorder by Nobody: 11:54am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Bélla3: yes, i had a vision... True. But I sleep well |
Re: 7 Reasons Why Religion Is A Mental Disorder by Bella3(f): 12:01pm On Feb 03, 2013 |
Logicboy03:I honestly .doubt that. |
Re: 7 Reasons Why Religion Is A Mental Disorder by Nobody: 12:04pm On Feb 03, 2013 |
Bélla3: I honestly .doubt that. If you are so concerned you could always cuddle me to sleep. Did you know that another symptom of religious disorder is continuously judging others? |
Re: 7 Reasons Why Religion Is A Mental Disorder by Bella3(f): 12:09pm On Feb 03, 2013 |
Logicboy03:That i agree. I think you suffer from that too. Okay lets call yours Irreligious disorder |

Omexonomy: How did this poo became the first tread in this section. manmustwac showing his evangelical atheist credentials and flexing atheist muscle. Meanwhile if you post something not even half as bad as this about atheists, our friend will lock or delete the thread one time as "offensive". Thin skinned people kawai. |
Re: 7 Reasons Why Religion Is A Mental Disorder by Nobody: 12:27pm On Feb 03, 2013 |
Enigma: How hypocritical and delusional. I complained to Jesoul about this thread over a week ago; https://www.nairaland.com/762678/hate-atheists#9171146 |
Re: 7 Reasons Why Religion Is A Mental Disorder by manmustwac(m): 12:55pm On Feb 03, 2013 |
Enigma:Your just hurt because you can't debunk logic boys & deep down inside you, you know what he's saying is true. Show me the evidence of the christian threads that I lock or delete? |
Re: 7 Reasons Why Religion Is A Mental Disorder by Enigma(m): 1:08pm On Feb 03, 2013 |
manmustwac: Your just hurt because you can't debunk logic boys & deep down inside you, you know what he's saying is true. There is a shed load of threads that you locked disgracefully and out of bias just because it was "offensive" to atheists. Because we nor dey talk you think say we no dey see ya bias. Yeyeful Here is just one example: https://www.nairaland.com/752704/think-atheist-should-considered-mental#9086104 manmustwac: Topic title is offensive! LOCKED And the God wey go catch you, the topic titles are almost identical. Oh by the way are you also going to agree that the poster of that thread was saying truthful things that gave you "hurt" and which you know deep down inside you that you can't "debunk" and that is why you locked the thread? Thin skinned people kawai! |
Re: 7 Reasons Why Religion Is A Mental Disorder by manmustwac(m): 1:18pm On Feb 03, 2013 |
Well at the time I found that offensive & biased. Maybe I shoud've left it and modified the title & content but e don pass now & that was in 2011. If you don't like any of my decisions you can always leave a message in the complaints section & will always reconcider am only human |
Re: 7 Reasons Why Religion Is A Mental Disorder by Omexonomy: 1:22pm On Feb 03, 2013 |
Logicboy03:be sincere at least for once did a bycicle fall on you while typing this poo |

If you don't like any of my decisions you can always leave a message in the complaints section & will always reconcider am only human I don't have time for complaining about the nonsense here my friend. In the past, I gently warned or needled you when you showed such bias; even my first post here was gentle and humorous but as you decide say you wan open ya own yansh na him you see just small consequence. As I said, there are many other threads that you locked similarly with obvious and very shameful bias. And finally: are you now going to lock this thread or not? |
Re: 7 Reasons Why Religion Is A Mental Disorder by manmustwac(m): 1:33pm On Feb 03, 2013 |
Enigma:NO! |
Re: 7 Reasons Why Religion Is A Mental Disorder by Enigma(m): 1:36pm On Feb 03, 2013 |
NID I didn't expect you to; you are too cowardly for that and won't want to lose face before your fellow evangelical atheists. Make una enjoy unasefs. Oh and finally: Thin skinned people kawai! |
