    Yep.

    It boils down to:

    Reality is actually magic (ie, fundamentally incomprehensible and inconsistent), and our magic guide book, and my interpretation of said magic guide book, is more correct than any other book or person, because this book says it is, and says it is the bestest magical book, and I am the bestest knower of the magic book.

    It is magical thinking, a worldview based on a psuedo reality derived from psuedo logic (where psuedo means ‘fake’, ‘impostor’, ‘sham’), which is a key component of many cults and also severe psychological disorders.
