Now they say belief in God is mental illness? Hian!

First they legalized the homosexuality. Then they went further to push for a gender neutral name to replace the use of the words husband and wife,now their supreme court wants to vote to allow men right to terminate wife's pregnancy.Also they are proposing a measure that will legalize assisted suicide (euthanasia), and now the American Psychological Association has classified belief in God as mental illness *smh*

They said, 'A strong and passionate belief in a deity or higher power, to the point where it impairs one’s ability to make conscientious decisions about common sense matters, will now be classified as a mental illness.'

The controversial ruling comes after a 5-year study by the APA showed devoutly religious people often suffered from anxiety, emotional distress, hallucinations, and paranoia. The study stated that those who perceived God as punitive was directly related to their poorer health, while those who viewed God as benevolent did not suffer as many mental problems. The religious views of both groups often resulted in them being disconnected from reality.

A professor in Psychology,Dr Lilian Andrews talked about how people's religious belief hinder them from getting life-saving treatment and hopes in future, with the new classification, the APA will lobby to introduce legislation which would allow doctors the right to force life-saving treatment on those who refuse it for spiritual reasons on the grounds that they are mentally incapable of making decisions about their health.
