I think people that take psychology courses and then imagine themselves qualified to diagnose other people based upon something as simple as approach to prayer to be a sign of living in an imaginary world. They may be full of crap. I don't know.
I'd be inclined to give them a break and figure that they might chill out later on down the road, with a little experience and maturity.
Many authors do. I guess we could do without all the great world's literature.

I'm NOT diagnosing them, I'm stating facts. For example: Narcissistic people stock in their 12 year old ways. Narcissistic people like to worship themselves. Anti-Socialist deceive others in order to obtain money.
Deceive - cause to believe something that is not true, typically in order to gain some personal advantage.
They put a big statue of a human in their nation, then they tell the world he is God, then the people make the nation rich and famous.

Where did you get an idea that Russian government tolled the people that he was God?

Don't you think that gifting flowers to a statue is kind of low?
Obviously not. I'm a Hindu. One time, before I discovered that I have an allergy to marigolds, I made about 20 beautiful garlands in a single day. It brought out he energy in the deities form in very dramatic ways. that's what flowers do. Their fragrance brings out the beautiful fragrance of what we Hindus call darshan, fragrance of God, good for the soul, and a lovely effect for peace and tranquility on our way to the ultimate goal, moksha. I feel sorry for people who miss out on that. It's so inspiring.
I have a couple questions for you:
1. Do you think mythology is capable of providing a foundation for a valid and beneficial understanding of something that is beneficial in everyday life? Is there a rational use for symbols as being meaningful and containing a wealth of information for someone, and it not be a sign for you of some mental problem?
2. With your use of "Anti-Socialism," I'm not sure I'm reading your intended meaning correctly there. Do you mean Anti-Socialism as a political position, in opposition to Socialism? It occurs to me from the context that maybe you meant "anti-social" meaning in opposition to society. Would you please clarify for me what you meant there?

I misread that as "...Jesus was Cod". There is something fishy going on!
I hear you brother!
Gonna actually address this, or are you going to keep ignoring the massive holes that I and others have been poking in your arguments? Though with statements like this, I'm becoming more inclined to believe you created this thread to troll.

So are you going to actually debate other points of view or are you just going to continue slandering and mocking them?
It's a fixation on a single point, repeatedly. Not that uncommon, but most likely quite unhealthy for the individual involved.
