  It’s also what sane people say to people experiencing delusions.

    The current context is that a layperson with no credentials or experience in psychopathology is handing out medical advice and being a bit of a jerk about it.

      If someone said “I am literally God” would you need to be a trained psychiatrist to identify that as a delusion? You would not. Same goes here.

        Your reducto ad absurdum has no effect because I respect divinekin and think their identities as deities are valid. It’s kind of a terrible argument because you haven’t explained what’s supposedly wrong about any of these identities, you’ve just pointed at them and gone “LOOK AT THAT! IT’S WEIRD!” and expected Me to agree with you. Pretty weak strategy tbh.
