This is sort of a "What?!?!?!" item that many of us (at least I) would never have connected with other disorders. I knew religiosity is common in bipolar episodes, especially manias, but not in TLE or possibly other neurological conditions. Now I am ultra curious! I'm sorry if I seemed frozen in response, initially. Though I do know a little bit about some neurological issues, I am not that knowledgeable. I know you have been exploring such topics for a long time.

Hi BirdDancer, Thanks for you response. I was/am genuinely concerned about having taken the thread "off course," which can sometimes "disturb the flow" of , or can derail, the thread. I have been known to, unintentionally, do so on occasion.
The topics raised, both religiosity and/or spirituality, as we know, can be very controversial and might, depending upon the experiences/knowledge/feelings of the membership, have a chilling effect. I did not consider this before I had written the post. My sincere apologies if my post had any similar type of a chilling effect upon this very interesting topic/thread you've created.
EDIT: OOOPS! I had written this post before I was aware of the fascinating and the important exchanges by both fern and BirdDancer!!!
I find this entire thread quite fascinating... and I could/might get carried away! If I do get carried away, please reign me in!
Thanks again!
