Religious paranoia

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This doesn't really seem to be a thing. Poking around, most uses of the phrase tend to be using paranoia in the usual sense, but in the context of religious beliefs. I certainly can't find any in-depth treatment that suggests that this is considered some sort of distinct phenomenon, either social or psychological. It's hard to see how this article could ever be anything besides some unacceptable amount of WP:SYNTH. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon &bull; videos) 23:51, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete I'm sure paranoia about religion is a "thing", for instance China's treatment of Muslims. Which clearly from a place of anti-Muslim paranoia. That said, I don't think "religious paranoia" as a concept is really a thing outside of normal paranoia. Which seems to be reflected in the facts that the article is mostly written like original research and that there doesn't seem to be any sources out there talking about it as one. --Adamant1 (talk) 08:19, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete. There is no credible substance to this article, except the fruits of scrupulosity, hysteria, irrational fears and religious fanaticism. Whiteguru (talk) 08:18, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete: page is all WP:OR with a dash of WP:SYNTH tossed in as polish.  // Timothy ::  talk  01:47, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
