Abstract
reading Hearing Voices. Consequently, after having benefited from the philosophical rigor McCauley and Graham apply to such a large array of topics in Hearing Voices, I wish to take this opportunity to ask them to explicate the scientific utility of labeling some mental disorders or symptoms as “religious” and, if they find scientific utility in such labeling, to detail whose labeling criteria should be used and why. Such an explication would help once again demonstrate the important contributions of philosophy to not only the intersection of religion and mental illness but to the cognitive science of religion as a whole.
