While belatedly* responding to comments I was able to articulate something I think is important. I am making it a post to get wider attention:
I don’t see delusions about someone believing they are a god as significantly different than someone having the delusion gods exist or do not exist. There are billions of people that must be delusional on this topic. I don’t know for certain which ones are truly delusional, and which have it close to right. Everyone could have it wrong and are delusional.
* The comments I was responding to were posted when I was in Idaho working with extremely limited time to get some things done on my underground bunker.
Someone having the delusion gods exist or do not exist.
One of these beliefs isn’t delusional. One must be true (and thence not delusional) and the other can’t be true and thus is delusional. The coin will either rest on heads or tails.
I’m putting my money with Pascal.
