Yes, but I would be willing to bet my bottom dollar if you actually sat these people down with a licensed clinician, you'd find a lot of mental illness. From what I've seen a lot of these people have some delusion, no matter how 'strong' or 'weak' that delusion is, that they've developed a 'relationship' with the creator, not realizing that almost no woman would ever seriously consider any of these men as a long-term... or frankly, even short-term... partner.

If there's one thing that evolutionary psychology has shown, it's that women's psychology for the mating market is not wired that way.



If you sat any significant amount of people down with a licensed clinician you'd find a lot of mental illness.

That in no way affects how likely they are to pay, given that (in some volume) they already do.
