I agree in the sense that any useful tool is a weapon in the wrong hands. I would argue (partly against my own point on religion) that current avenues open to mentally unhealthy individuals rarely count as treatment.

I would also propose that a proper handling of mental health has the potential to reduce the negative effects of both religious and authoritarian tendencies.

I mean mental health here, not just for those we consider to be sick, but for all of us as a mental "immune" system to guard against propaganda and inflammatory personalities.
