A propos the claim that the difference between religion and religious psychosis is purely quantitative.
What about atheism?
There are atheists who claim that free will doesn´t exist, that existence is meaningless, that there is no objective morality (or morality at all), that everything came from nothing, that particles constantly phase in and out of existence, that Boltzmann brains are possible, und so weiter ad nauseam.
If you only claim this in abstracto (or at Reddit forums on a Sunday), we just call it "atheism". But if you show up to work on a Monday, trying to convince your fellow workers that there is no free will and that everything is meaningless, we call it psychosis.
Funny how that works, wouldn´t you say?
